M I C H I G A N RESTORING A LOST EMPIRE. The possible realization uf the project for reopening the old empire of Nebuchadnezzar to civilization, a project which only yesterday was only a dream, la foreshadowed by the efforts of the Turkish government to reclaim IL',500,000 acres of waste laud In Northern Mesopotamia through irrigation, sayB New York World. Given the success of the experiment, the ancient realm of Assyrian and Babylonian monarchs may then be re fertilized and repeopled with an In diretrious race and the world's uld granary restored after centuries oT desolation. Mesopotamia's greatness waH due to a system of irrigation canals In connection with the Tigris and Euphrates. It was by their neglect that It declined and was transformed Into a sandy plain, the haunt of nomad races. Within recent times the engineer and the archeologist have invaded It, the former plotting the route of the Bagdad railway which is to unite it with the Western world and the latter delving in the dust heap which have disclosed in turn the site of Nebuchadnezzar's palace, the hall in which Belshazzar gave his feast and the very site of Babel. To reclaim it to cultivation will cost ¢200,000,000. — w « " • - » • — Mr. Durand, the director of the census, has been casting a preliminary glance over the field, and he makes a rough estimate that the enumeration this year will show a population of between 88,000,000 and 90,000,000. The director's estimate would seem to be conservative as It does not Include any extraordinary growth. In fact, according to his total the ratio of Increase would be smaller than In the preceding ten years. The census of 1900 gave a population of 76,303,387, a gain of nearly 14,000,000 over 1890. A corresponding gain from 1900 to 1910 would send the figures considerably over the 90,000,000 mark. In fact, the World Almanac, taking the estimates of governors of states and territories, places the population for the Unite I States at present at 94,049,810. There has been some remarkable development in some localities, and the final results of the census taking this year may furnish some surprises. T The factions have not yet got together In Nicaragua, but it looks more and more as though they are likely to do so. President Madrlz has made peace proposals, and General Estrada the leader of the insurgents, has replied. The offer is not accepted, but General Estrada suggests meditation, with the United States as the deciding power. Uncle Sam is not looking for any such mission, but If he ran be Instrumental in bringing about an honorable adjustment of the quarrel and in restoring peace to a distracted region perhaps he will not object. And the steps taken looking to the withdrawal of the American nnval forces in that quarter would seem to indicate that apprehensions of further serious trouble are no longer entertained. This Is the age of the automobile. Yet the horee 1B not wholly a negligible quantity, and . coaching, that sport so popular with lovers of the equine, still flourishes. A notable record was made by a four-in-hand from New York to Atlantic City. Of course the automobile will continue Us triumphs. But there is a great deal that is inspiring in a drive though the country behind spirited and speedy horses. The Duke of Orleans, the French pretender, again offers himself at this crisis to save the ship of state, declaring that republican institutions are responsible for corruption. But it is not the use of republican institutions which is at fault; It is merely their abuse;, and the obliging Duke will probably be politely so Informed, and hi^ help as politely refused. Another little row has generated nmong those touchy South American nations. Peru has become huffy at Chile, and has withdrawn the legation to the latter country. What seems to bp almost as much needed as a Hague tribunal is an arbitration court that will smooth over those Latin-American squabbles. The frequent appeals to aid the census takers are an Indication that there is some fear of a disinclination to reveal family secrets for the benefit of the statisticians. T H E COMBINE W I L L PRESENT ANOTHER PLAN OP ORGANIZATION. ABANDONS MAINE CORPORATION —W. A. FOOTE D E N I E S ATT E M P T TO DODGE LAW. The Custer Monument Will Be Unveiled at Monroe June 4 by the Widow of General Cunter. The water power ayudicate has capitulated to the state railroad commission and will present to that body its plan for developing a great water power system in thia state. W. A. Foote of Jackson, the prime mover in the project, and John C. Weudock, his attorney, called on Chairman Glasgow of the commission at Lansiug and announced that within 1U days the matter will again be before the commission, but along entirely different lines from the original scheme. The plan now proposed is for each of the 11 water power companies Included in the merger to come before the commission "separately and make a showing for an Issue of bonds with which to take up its present indebtedness and provide an object for extensions and improvements. Each company will act separately in this matter and there is no announcement as to further plans for merging the companies, although it is known that at least some of the companies will be merged into one corporation. The proposal to organize the Consumers' Power Co. of Maine with a capital stock of $20,000,000 to issue 135,000,000 in bonds is not a part of the project as outlined at present, although after several bond issues are arranged there may be some move alon^ this line. Mr. Weadock in his talk with Chairman Glasgow absolutely disclaimed any Intention on the part of the merger to avoid coming under state regulation, stating that ever since it had been found that the original plan could not be carried out by reason of lack of time, attention had been devoted to the matter of arranging for presenting this scheme to the commission.

"Technically," aaid Judge Wells to William Rung in the municipal court, "you had the right on your side. However, you chose a form of cruel and unusual punishment that cannot be toleratttd by this court. I'll have to fine ydu one dollar." It appeared from the evidence that Mr. Aung, who is a stereotyper, sat down to luncheon with Edward Snider, a fellow employe. The piece de resistance of Rung's luncheon consisted of limburger cheese, and Snider, who regards- himself as something of a wag, had made certain remarks about the cheese, reflecting particularly on Its odor. Thereupon Mr, Rung smeared a piece of the cheese over the humorous Snlder'e countenance. "This," said Rung, as he stepped up to pay his fine, "Is the kind of justice that smells to heaven." "That will be about all from you," said the court bailiff; "cheese It!"— Chicago Record-Herald. Unreasonable Attitude of Hlj Friend Naturally Disgusted Man of Business.

Being Interested in mining operations In Bolivia, he was denounced by Chile aa a n insurrectionist and aa a consequence w a s hiding. At his hotel hiH attention w a s attracted by a n E n g l i s h m a n and a young woman. Stephens rescued the young woman from a drunken officer. H e w a s thanked by her. Admiral of the Peruvian navy confronted Stephens, told him tha^t war had been declared between Chile a n d Peru and offered him the office of captain. H e desired that that night the Esmeralda, a Chilean vessel. should be captured. Stephens accepted t h e commission. Stephens met a motley crew, to which h e w a s assigned. H e gave them final instructions. They boarded the vessel. They successfully captured the vessel supposed to be the Esmeralda, through strategy. Capt. Stephens gave directions for the departure of the craft. He entered the cabin a n d discovered t h e English woman and her maid. Stephens quickly learned the w r o n g vessel h a d been captured. It w a s Lord Darlington's private yacht, the* lord's wife and maid being aboard. H e explained the situation to her ladyship. Then First Mate Tuttle laid bare the plot, saying that the Sea Queen had been taken in order to g o to the Antarctic circle. Tuttle explained that on a former voyage he had teamed that t h e Donna Isabel was lost in 1753. He had found it frozen in a huge case of Ice on an island and contained much gold. Stephens consented to be the captain of the expedition. H e told Lady Darlington. She w a s greatly alarmed, but expressed confidence in him. T h e Sea Queen encountered a vessel in the fog. Stephens attempted to communicate. This caused a tierce struggle and he was overcome. Tuttle linally squaring the situation. Then the Sea Queen headed south again. Under Tnttle's guidance the vessel made progress toward i t s goal, De Nova, the mate, told Stephens that he believed Tuttle, now acting as skipper, insane because of his queer actions. Stephens was awakened by crashing of glass. He saw Tuttle in the grip of a spasm of religious mania and overcame him. The sailor upon regaining his senses w a s taken 111. Tuttle committed suicide by shooting. Tpon vote of t h e crew Stephens assumed the leadership and the men decided to continue the treasure hunt, t h e Islands being supposed to be only 200 miles distant. Tuttle WHS buried In the sea, Lady Darlington pronouncing the service, Stephens awaking from sleep saw the ghost, supposed to have formed the basis for Tuttle's religious mania. T'pon advice of Lady Darlington, Stephens started to probe t h e ghosj. He came upon Lieut. Sanchez, the drunken officer he had humbled in Chile. H e found that at Sanchez' inspiration, E n - gineer McKnlght played "ghost" to scare the men into giving up the quest. not trifle any longer with your life." "{—I am not that kind of a coward, Mr. Stephens. You—you owe it t o those men to push, on, now we are so near their goal, ' Ypn have pledged them your word,^and>—and I want you to keep it." 4 | •' The companion-doer skkl back, and a man came heavily down the steps. AH he caught eight of us he polled OS his cap awkwardly. "Mr. De Nova sent me to call you, sir," h e said. "It's four bells." CHAPTER XIX. to *#*U>h WfcvAttste 4§LA7', South. When morning Arrived: t h e Sea Queeu was plunging through a n angry »ea, In the midst of a raging snow storm which • effectually concealed all our immediate surroundings. With vivid remembrance of those vast ice fields lying off our starboard quarter, and the certainty that numerous bergs were drifting not far ahead, we were compelled to slow down our engines, feeling a way cautiously through the whjte fog. The Ice-cakes buffeting our bows, and scraping along the sides, were a constant menace, requiring men to fend thera off so a s t o keep rudder and screw uninjured; t h e mainsail had broken loose from its gaskets, and, frozen stiff as the heavy canvas was, proved difficult to secure; while t h e ice on our forward deck had accumulated to such a thickness aa to be weighting us down by the head, and had to be chopped loose and ttimg overboard in great blocks. It was not far from noon when the heavy snow-clouds broke and went scurrying away like a flock of birds, CHAPTER XVMt.—Continued. He promised with an pager onrnestneas that went far toward convincing me I had not only conquered the man, hut won his friendship as well. "Then wait here, McKnight, until I can pass hack alone through the engine room. In ten minutes you slip through, and let this end it. Shake hands, my man." He gave me a grip T foil., and so 1 left him, a mere shadow in the hVck pasRage. Lady Darlington stood within the door of her cabin waiting for me. her face brightening as I emerged through the pantry door. "Who was it?" "McKnlght; I caught him in the very act, but shall keep it from t h e crew. There will he no repetition of this affair, T am sure, for now we are homeward bound." How quickly h e r gray eyes lighted up, her hands instantly clasping mine. "Homeward bound, Mr. Stephens! » • * • Have we already attained the spot sought in this sea? Was there nothing discovered there a s a reward for all this long voyage?" •"No, we are not. yet. there, but I have determined upon turning hack. I can not. take you any farther into danger." "Rut why? why? Ta t h e peri) so terribly desperate? How much far ther south must we go?" "With fair luck, t h e wind holding as tt Is, we might attain the position to-morrow. 'Tis not a long run; hut, Lady Darlington, 1 am afraid to risk It. T%e slightest slant of wind will bring the ice crashing down upon us. We are under Damocles' sword, suspended by a hair. This is the beginning of winter in these latitudes—of fierce gales from the sou'h sweeping across leagues of frozen waters. We haya been wonderfully fortunate thus far, yet, a single day. ay. a single hour, might seal our fate, hemming us in be* yond any possibility of escape. I wight take t h e c h a a e e if we were all Mere adventurers on board, hut 1 dura Within a Minute De Nova Had Joined Me, His Eyes Stilt Heavy with Sleep, leaving the wide sweep of waters clear to our view, with a yellow sun hanging cold in the pale blue of the sky. 1 hardly knew where we were, not feeling al all certain about the extent of our drift during the past 24 hours, and so hastily brought my Instruments on deck and shot Ihe sun, stepping into the chart house to figure out our position. The result sent a sudden thrill of exultation through me. "We have attained the spot!" I exclaimed, aa 1 glanced up, and saw her gazing In at me through the open door. "Now we will ascertain t h e truth of Tuttle's vision." "The spot? Do yon mean this is the point of sea we have been seeking?" "Ay! and now, thank God! we can head the other way." 1 sprang eagerly past her, clinging to a life-line so as to keep my feet on (he deck, too thoroughly excited by my discovery to remain any longer in idleness. "Johnson, run below, and call Mr. De Nova. Have him turn out at once." 1 Matched the fellow slide to t h e companion, and made my own way to the bridge, sweeping my glasses anxiously about the clearing . horizon. Within a minute De Nova had Joined me, his eyes still heavy from Bleep. "Mr. De Nova," 1 said, rapidly, my gloved hand sweeping a semicircle in our front, "I have just taken a n observation, and this is latitude 66" 17' south and longitude 110° 30' west. Send your sharpest eyed lookout to the foretopsail yard with these glasses. Then call all hands." He went down t h e bridge stairs as though shot from a gun, and a moment later a young seaman named Symes was swiftly footing the ratlines, their coating of ice breaking under his tread and rattling on the deck below. The men swarmed out from the forecastle and up the main hatch, ranging themselves about the foot of the foremast, watching me eagerly, and occasionally peering up at Symes, now wall above the cross trees. "Lads.'' i cried, bending over the rail of the bridge, and staring down into- their upturned faces "I've .lust figured out our i»osition, and this is the spot we've been hunting after in these seas. I've sent Symes aloft to look out for Tuttle's island. If there'* any land In sisjht, well and good; we'll have a try for looting the Dona* = 9 C 4 b A. * • Isabel of those Spanish pesos, But If not, then w e l l call i t a wild goose chase, sod the Ses Queen points her nose north." There was a faint, half-hearted a t tempt' a t a cheer, which ended In a muttering of oaths and a shuffling of feet on the icy planks. The glances of the fellows turned upward toward Symes, now securely posted on t h e foretopsail yard, t h e glasses to his eyes. One or two among them, including Anderson, clambered t o t h e top of the forecastle where they could see ahead. "How t h e hell," t h e latter yelled "do we know this i s the place, and suddenly from that point of vantage, that you ain't foojln* us Just to get back?" The crowd turned their eyes on me, and I heard a growl of approval. "Principally because I Buy so, Anderson. The chart, with our course pricked on it day by day, Is yonder in the chart-house. And my figures are there also for this day's reckoning." "But we don't any of us know any thing about t h a t ! " "True enough, b u t there happens to be one on board who can figure it out for you if you doubt my word. Lady Darlington can do it." The rising medley of growling voices ceased almost instantly, and if I had felt any question as to what her ladyship would do it was Immediately silenced. She slipped to the rail of the stairs, her hood thrown bade, her hair blowing In the wind. "I—I believe thoroughly in Mr. Stephens," she said, clearly, "but it Is true that I know something of navigation, and if you really doubt his statement I will figure it out for you." "Now you hear that, lads," my voice ringing out stern over the hubbub. "You'll believe this lady If her results are the same a s mine. Now stop your growling." I hollowed my hands for a hall aloft. "What do you pick up, Symes?" His words came back in a thread of sound a s he looked down upon us from his bobbing perch. "Not very much, sir, except water. There's a hell of a big field o' Ice out yonder," pointing with one hand, the other gripping the spar, "but it's mostly flat, an' all glistenin' with snow. There's maybe a dozen bergs ahead an' off the port quarter, mostly medium size, but with the devil of a big fellow a poir.«t or so to the north." "Any land?" "Not a sign, sir, unless that's It I take for a big berg. The shadows look dark enough for rock." "Ease h e r off two points, wheelman." "Two points it is, sir." We stood there, silent and motionless, waiting anxiously, t h e men ranged along the rail, with their eyes all turned forward. I rang for full speed, and the Sea Queen fairly leaped ahead through the icy smother, flinging clouds of white spray over the heedless figures. Within ten minutes we began to perceive the huge mass we were approaching from the deck, and never before had my eyes looked upon so gigantic and majestic a mountain of ice. It was one immense cliff towering into the upper air, being fully 300 feet high, and not less than 1,200 feet in length, with vast glittering pinnacles rising stifl farther into the sky, its entire front a sheer precipice, gleaming in cold blue, with hardly a darker shadow anywhere to yield relief to the eye. We rounded its eastern edge so closely one could have tossed a biscuit from the foreyard against its smooth front. the swell of its motion tossing the daring yacht flrke' an eggshell. Symes clung to his parch aloft with the grip of a n*mkey, .swinging back and forth to the wild sfrayinftof the spar. Suddenly he'yelled down- "There's wind comln" from t h e son'west, sir." "Heavy?' "Looks to be a stiff breeze, an' it's bringing more snow." "Lay down from aloft." I sprang over, t o consult the binnacle- card, and then cast one swift, comprehending glance at the thickening gloom in the southwest. Beyond doubt the change had come. "Give her two more point* north, wheelsman; keep h e r head nor'east by nor'—steady so. Mr. De Nova, send another man up here to t h e wheel. All hands now; stow every thing; tail on to those gaskets lively, my huls; we're lu tor a blow, and a run for our lives." To my amazement scarcely a man among them stirred, the eyes of the majority turning toward Anderson. Evidently there was an understanding between them; they intruded to revolt and had chosen him their leader. He stood just in front of the forecastle, a lumping big figure in his heavy clothes, his coarse face and ugly jaw showing beneath a fur cap. "What yer turuin' north for in such a hurry, Mr. Stephens?'' h e growled, hoarsely. "It's not by vote o' the crew, an' we're t h e ones that's got they say of It on this voyage. We're for keepln' along this line o' latitude for a day or so anyhow. Tuttle might 'a' got his riggers tangled an' missed a few leagues. Anyhow, we want t h e lady to give us her reckoning first." I felt the hot blood leap to my face, and my teeth clenched a s I leaned over the rail gazing down a t him. "Lads," 1 said, striving to master myself. "I've put you exactly where I promised 1 would; I've shown you all that was here. You can see for yourselves what will happen if we hoW on any longer. The wind h a s swept around; it is going to bring that whole pack of ice down on us. We've got to run for it, or be crushed. Now what I want to know is, are you with me, or with Bill Anderson?" , They held off muttering, yet casting uneasy glances over the rail. Anderson stamped angrily on the deck. "Oh, to hell with yer fine words," he said, grimly. "What if the wind has changed a bit? Can't we beat off the floe under steam the same as we did before? We're sailor-men, and not afraid of a rough sea. For one, I'm damned if I leave that gold to rot here without huntin' for it." Words were clearly useless, and 1 ripped back my heavy coat, dragging off my gloves, all patience exhausted. "Come on, De Nova," I exclaimed, "you've got sense enough to realize what this means." I was over the rail wiih a leap, fronting them on the deck. Almost to my surprise the Creole landed beside me, and without a word we struck out at the heads in our front. It was a fierce mix-up for a minute, yet only a man or two stood with Andersen, the suddenness of our assault taking all the fight out of most of hem. I struck Big Bill twice squarely in t h e face, driving him back against the steps leading to the forecastle deck; over these he fell sprawling, his head thumping the plank. The next instant I had De Nova's antagonists in t h e rear, and together we laid them out against the rail, and none too gently. The mate's smile had become ugly, and he would have leaped into the rest of the bunch, but 1 caught his arm.

That Settled Mr. Clerklie ftr- Happening That Decided Him on Seekinfl Another Restaurant. For years Mr. Clerklie had eaten his frugal but nourishing luncheon in a lit tie restaurant half a block north from his office. He was an easily satisfied person, and what, he ordered seemed always to suit him to perfection. T h e waitresses never knew htm to com plain. But one day things went wrong. The butter was rancid, and the bread so moist, that Mr. Clerklie. who had decided ideas about hygiene, would not eat. it. He did his best, and left tlw table early. The nexf day the same thing oc curreri, and the day after there was no improvement. He called the waitress to him. "May I see the proprietor, please?" he inquired. The girl -disappeared for a minute and returned with the news that the proprietor was out. The following day as well a s t h e one after there was no improvement in the food, and no sign of the proprietor. Tlr. Clanklie nearly made u j his mind t o seek another r e s t a u r a n t He decided, however, to give them a chance, and on Saturday at luncheon again asked for the owner of the place. "He's gone out," was the reply. Mr. Clerklie became hold. "This is ridiculous!" he exclaimed. "I come here at noontime every day, and every day he is out. Where is he. anyway?" "We expect him hack any minute," said the girl. "He has just stepped out to get his lunch."—Youth's Companion. Birthdays and Health. For several years I have noticed that in a period of from about, three to two weeks preceding the anniversary of my birth I have had a feeling of returning vigor, a renewal of vitality such as I have not «xperienred at any other time of the year. This has lasted for from two to eight days, but has always ceased some days before the anniversary. Hence it. h a s occurred to me that, there may be some connection between the approach of t h e recurrence of one's birthdate and the maintenance of one's health. —Letter In London Graphic.

THE CRESCENT WORKS, 326 Mala Street, Ann Arbor, Mloh. & A Mud House By EVELYN B. EMERSON Copyright, 1810, by American frees Association. Ajnoug the Boers of South Africa forty years ago lived a farmer named Van Wyk. He was very pooo-so poor that he^puid got choose a desirable pluce \Pr a decent bouse in which to live. Indeed, bis farm was a circular depression, and when too much rain came it was flooded, and his crops were rotted. As for bis house, it was but a hut and was plastered with mud. But Van Wyk had not always lived thus. Time was when he had been well off, and the eldest daughter, Katherine, was educated. Katherine was a comely Dutch girl, with blue eyes, fair complexion and hair almost white. Her mother did the best she could to keep her girl we* dressed and, baring fabrics ^hat sbJ had worn in better days, made th£m over so successfully that Kate, especially on Sundays, made a very good appearance. Some distance from the Van Wyku lived a prosperous farmer named Oreutner—that is, he was considered prosperous for that region, though his farm produced only a lair living for himself and his family. He had a number of daughters and but one son; therefore he was anxious that his children should marry with those who were well to do. He had saved a small dowry for each of his daughters, and, as for his son Hans, be proposed to leave him his farm. But he required from any girl his boy should marry a dowry equivalent to its value. Unfortunately Hans met Katherine at a dance at one of the neighboring farmhouses, and one glance at her pink and milk face, her robin's egg eyes and the two hemp colorefd cables that hung from the back of her head to her ankles put all ideas of his father's plans out of his head. He danced with her several times during the evening, and when the two separated theirs was one of those cases wherein two young hearts rush together like a couple of electric sparks. When Farmer Greutner heard of his Bon's love affair he called the boy to him and said: "Hans, I'm ashamed of you. What do you .mean by making love to a girl Who lives in a cabin plastered with mud? You certainly can't marry her, for if you do I \, ill give this farm to your sisters, ami you and your mud hut wife will have nothing to live upon." Hans only irritated his lather by making no reply. 1'eople with whom we are angry cannot make us more angry than by listening to what we say and giving us no word in return. Hans went away determined that nothing should separate him l'roiu the girl he loved, even to the surrendering of his inheritance, but he did not see how her father could he persuaded to give her to one who could not support her. So the matter went on, as such matters usually do, with hard feeling between Hans and his father and opposition enhancing the attachment of the young couple. (Jreutner never lost an opportunity to sneer at the mud cabin in which his sou's beloved lived, and since the rest of the family considered Hans would -demean himself by taking a wife out of such a home they were constantly taunting him about his mud haired girl who lived in a mud plastered house. One day the little Van Wyk children prospected the mud plastering for playthings. From a part of it that had given way they pulled out some queer looking stones. Whether they wanted them for jackstones or for some other childish game, they certainly wantod them and did not spare the plastering. When -their father came in and saw that they had made rents in the wall he rated them soundly and asked them why they had done no, whereupon they showed him the stones they had pulled out. Farmer Van Wyk forgot the damage to the plastering in the stones. They were rough and did not possess either the appearance or weight of common stones. He studied over them a long while, then borrowed a magnifying glass and examined them with it carefully. Taen he called his wife and told her that the plastering of their cabin was sprinkled with diamonds. The next day -before the dawn had , hardly broken he went to the place on 'hie farm where he bad taken the clay to plaster his cabin and, digging up : the earth, found that it was full of the : tame kind of stoneB. He could not be- JMere his eyet. Taking one of the diamonds to an emery wheel, he ground one side of, it and exposed a white •nrfad^Tfyen he ground different parte oi itJeaving intersecting planee, and* hotttUff the stone up to the rising ran* produced flashes like the ralnbew. ?jot long after that Farmer Greutner can» over to yen Wyk to eongratulate him on bis good fortune, and to wy thaw bis eon being bent on marrying.

BIG AUDIENCE IN SORBONNE Savants, Professors and 8tudents Hear the Ex-President's Views on the Responsibilities of the Individual— Hits at Race Sulcide4n Fran**. Paris, April 23.—Savants, professors and students ot the University of Paris crowded the assembly hall of the Sorbonne this afternoon to hear Col. Theodore Roosevelt lecture on "Citizenship in a Republic." It was an appreciative audience and the lecturer •was frequently applauded. Mr. Roosevelt said: Foundations of Our Republic. This was the most famous univercity of medieval Europe at a time when no one dreamed that there was a new world to discover. ItB services to the cause of human knowledge already stretched far back into the remote past at the time when my forefathers, three centuries ago, when among the sparse bands of traders, plowmen, wood choppers and flsherfolk, who, in a hard struggle with the iron unfriendliness of the Indianhaunted land, were laying the foundations of what has now become the giant republic of the west. To conquer a continent, to tame the shaggy roughness of wild nature means grim warfare; and the generations engaged in it cannot keep, still less add to. the stores of garnered wisdom which were therein, and which are still in the hands of their brethren who dwell in the old land. To conquer the wilderness means to wrest victory from the same hostile forces with which mankind struggled In the immemorial infancy of our race. The primeval conditions must be met by 'primeval qualities which are incompatible with the retention of much that has been painfully acquired by humanity as through the ages it has striven upward toward civilization. In conditions so primitive there can be but a primitive culture. Building the Higher Life. As the country grows, Its people,who have won success in so many lines, turn back to try to recover the possessions of the mind and the spirit, which perforce their fathers threw \ aside in order better to wager the first rough battles for the continent their children inherit The leaders of thought and of action grope their way forward to a new life, realizing, sometimes dimly, sometimes clear-sightedly, that the life of material gain, whether for a nation or an individual, is of value only as a foundation, only as there is added to it the uplift that comes from devotion to loftier ideals. The new life thus sought can In part be developed afresh from what Is round about in the new world; but it can be developed in full only by freely drawing upon the treasure houses of the old world, upon the treasures stored in the ancient abodes of wisdom and learning, such as this where I speak today. It is a mistake for any nation merely to copy another; but it is an even greater mistake, it is a proof of weakness in any nation, not to be anxious to learn from another, and willing and able to adapt that learning to the new national conditions and make it fn.lt* ful and productive therein It Is fflf us of the new world to sit at the feet of the Gamaliel of the old; then if we have the right stuff in ua, we can show that Paul, in his turn, can become a teacher as well as a scholar. Today, I shall speak to you on the subject of Individual citizenship, the one subject of vital importance to you, my hearers, and to me and my countrymen, because you and we are citizens of great democratic republics. A democratic republic such as each of ours—an effort to realize in Its full sense government by, of, and for the people—represents the most gigantic of all possible social experiments, the one fraught with greatest, possibilities alike for good and for evil. Great Lesson of France. France has taught many lessons to other nations; surely one of the most important, is the lesson her whole history teaches, that a high artistic and literary development is compatible with notable leadership In arms and statecraft. The brilliant, gallantry of the French soldier has for many centuries been proverbial, and during those same centuries at every court in Europe the "free masons of fashion" havn treated the French tongue as their common speech; while every artist and man of letters, and every man of science able to appreciate that marvelous instrument of precision. French prose, has turned towards France for aid and inspiration. How long the leadership in arms and letters, has lasted is curiously illustrated by the fact that the earliest masterpiece in modern vengeance ot Charlemagne when the lords of the Frauklsfa host were stricken at Ronceavallea. Need of individual Character. Let those who have, keep, let those wjio have not, strive to attain a high standard of cultivation and scholarship. Yet let ua remember that these stand second to certain other things. There Is need of a sound body, and even more need of a sound mind. But above mind and above body stands character, the sum of those qualities which we mean when we apeak of a man's force and courage, of his good faith and sense of honor. I believe in exercise of the body, always provided that we keep in mind that physical development is a means and not an end. I believe, of course, in giving to all the people a good education. But the education must contain much besides book-learning in order to be really good. «W* must «sver remember that no keenness, and--subtleness of intellect, ad folisfc, n o cleverness in any way make up for t b ^ lack of great bolid qualities—*eM»resttalBt. self-mastery, common sense, the power of accepting individual responsibility and yet, of acting in conjunction with others. Courage and resolution; these are the qualities which mark a masterful people. Without them no people can- control itself or save itself from being controlled from the outside. I speak to a brilliant assemblage; I speak in a great university which represents the flower of the highest Intellectual development; I pay all homage to intellect, and to elaborate and specialized training of the intellect; and yet I know I shall have the assent of all you present when I add that more important still are the commonplace, everyday qualities and virtues. The Evils of Sterility. In the next place the good man should be both a strong and a brave man; that is, he should be able to fight, he should be able to serve his country as a soldier if the need arises. There are well-meaning philosophers who declaim against the unrighteousress of war. They are right, only they lay all their emphasis upon the unrighteousness. War is a dreadful thing, and unjust; war is a crime against humanity. But it is such a crime because it is unjust, not because it is war. The choice must ever be in favor of righteousness, and this whether the alternative be peace or whether the alternative be war. The question must not be merely, Js there f$o be peace or war? The question (ixtust be. is the right to prevail? Are the great laws of righteousness once more to be fulfilled? And the answer from a strong and virile people must be, "Yes," whatever the cost. Every honorable effort should always be made by the Individual In private life to keep out of a brawl, to keep out of trouble; but no self-respecting individual, no self-respecting nation, can or ought to submit to wrong. Finally, even more important than ability to work, even more important than ability to fight a t need, is it to remember that the chief of blessings for any nation Is that It shall leave its seed to inherit the land. It was the crown of blessings in Biblical times, and It is the crown of blessings now. The greatest of all curses Is the curse of sterility, and the severest of all condemnations should be that visited upon wilful sterility. The first essential in any civilization is that the man and the woman shall be father and mother of irtttlthy children, so that the race shall increase and not decrease. If this is not so, If through no fault of society th«re is failure to increase, it is a great misfortune. If the failure la d,ae to deliberate and wilful fault, then it is not merely a misfprtuns, it is one of those crimes of ease and self-Indulgence, of shrinking from pain and effort and risk, j which In the long run nature punishes ( more heavily than any other. Idle Achievements. If we of the great republics, if we, the free people who claim to have emancipated ourselves from the thraldom of wrong and error, bring down on our heads the curse that comes upon the wilfully barren, then it will be an idle waste of breath to prattle of our achievements, to boast, of all that we have done. No refinement of life, no delicacy of taste, no material progress, no sordid heaping up of riches.no sensuous development, of art and literature, can in any way compensate for the loss of the great fundamental virtues; and of the great fundamental virtues, the greatest is the race's power to perpetuate the race. But if a man's efficiency is not guided and regulated by a moral Bense. then the more efficient he is the worse he is, the more dangerous to the body politic. Courage, intellect, all the masterful qualities, serve but to make a man more evil if they are used merely for that man's own advancement, with brutal indifference to the rights of others. It speaks ill for the community if the community worships these qualities and treats their possessors as heroes regardless of whether the qualities are used rightly or wrongly. It makes no difference as to the precise way in which this sinistongue is the splendid French epic I ter efficiency is shown. It makes no which tell* of Roland's doom and the/ difference whether such a man's force and ability betray themselves in tot career of money maker or,politician, soldier or orator, journalist or popular leader. If the man worka for evil* then the more successful be Is, the more he should be despised and condemned by all upright and tarseelng men. To judge a man merely by success is an abhorrent wrong; and If the people at large habitually so Judge men, if they grow to condone wickedness because the wicked man triumphs, they show their Inability to understand that in the last analysis free institutions rest upon the character of citizenship and that by such admiration of evil they prove themselves unfit for liberty. The Idea of True Liberty. The good citizen will demand liberty for himself, and as a matter ot pride he will Bee to it that others receive the liberty which he thus claims as his own. Probably the best test ot true love of liberty in any country is the way in which minorities are treated in that country. Not only should there be complete liberty In matters of religion and opinion, but complete liberty for each man to lead his life as he desires, provided only that in so doing he does not wrong his neighbor. Persecution 1B bad because it is persecution, and without reference to which side happens at the moment to be the persecutor" and which the persecuted. Class hatred is bad in just the same way, and without any regard to the individual who, at a given time, substitutes loyalty to a class for loyalty to the nation, or substitutes hatred of men because they happen to come in a certain social category, for judgment awarded them according to their conduct. Remember always that the same measure of condemnation should be extended to the arrogance which would look down upon or crush any man because he is poor, and to the envy and hatred which would destroy a man because he is wealthy. The overbearing brutality of the man of wealth or power, and the envious and hateful malice directed against wealth or power, are really at root merely different manifestations of the same quality, merely the two sides of the same shield, The man who, if born to wealth and power, exploits and ruins his less fortunate brethren is at heart the same as the greedy and violent dema gogue who excites those who have not property to plunder those who have. Of one man In especial, beyond anyone else, the citizens of a republic should beware, and that la of the man who appeals to them to support him on the ground that he is hostile to other citizens of the republic, that he will secure for those who elect him, in one shape or another, profit at the expense of other citizens of the republic. It makes no difference whether he appeals to class hatred or class Interest, the man who makes such an appeal should always be presumed to make it for the sake of furthering his own interest The very thing that an Intelligent and self-respecting member of a democratic community Bhould not do is to reward any public man because that public man saya he will get the private citizen something to which this private citizen is not entitled, or will gratify some emotion or animosity which this private citizen ought not to possess. If a public man tries to get your vote by saying that he will do something wrong in your Interest, you can be absolutely certain that If ever it becomes worth his while he will do something wrong against your interest. France and the United States. And now, my host, a word In parting, You and I belong to the only two great republics among the great powers of the world. The ancient friendship between France and the United States has been, on the whole, a sincere and disinterested friendship. A calamity to you would be a Borrow to us. But it would be more than that. In the seething turmoil of the history of humanity certain nations stand out aa possessing a peculiar power or charm, some special gift of beauty or wisdom of strength, which puts them among the immortals, which makes them rank forever with the leaders of mankind. France is one of the nations. For her to sink would be a loss to all the world. There are certain lessons of brilliance and of generous gallantry that she can teach better than any of her sister nations. When the French peasantry sang of Malbrook it was to tell how the soul of this warrior-foe took flight upward through the laurels he had won. Nearly seven centuries ago Frolssart, writing of a time of dire disaster, said that the realm of France was never so stricken that there were not left men who would valiantly fight for it You have had a great past. I believe, that you will have a great future. Long may you carry yourselves proudly as citizens of a nation which bears a leading part in the teaching and up lifting of mankind. Seemed So.

London is smiling over a story told regarding little Miss Asquith, who is at that tender age when indiscreet remarks are still pardonable. Mrs. Asquith had taken her small daughter out to tea, and while her mother was talking to some friends at the other end of the room, little Margaret endeavored to entertain a conservative statesman who sat near her. "Do you like Mr. Lloyd-George?" sh£ asked when there was a lull in the conversation, "No," said he, smiling, "I can't say that I do."

Stop/ This Fact—that in addressing Mrs. Pinkham you are confiding your private ills to a woman—a woman whose experience witri women's diseases covers twenty-five years. The present Mrs. Pinkham, daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, was (or years under her direction, and has ever since her decease continued to advise women. Many women suffer in silence and drift along from bad to worse, knowing well that they ought to have immediate assistance, but a natural modesty causes them to shrink from exposing themselves to the questions and probable examinations of even their family physician. Such questioning and examination is unnecessary. Without cost you can consult a woman whose knowledge from actual experience is great. MRS. PINKHAlvTS STANDING INVITATION: Women suffering from any form of female weakness areinvited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn» Mass. All letters are received, opened, read and answered by women. A woman can freely talk of her private illness to a woman; thus has been established this confidence between Mrs. Pinkham and the women of America which has never been broken. Never has she published a testimonial or used a letter without the written consent of th£ writer, and never has the company allowed these cqnrV dential letters to get out of their possession, as the hui*» dreds of thousands of them in their files will attest Out of the vast volume of experience which Mrs. pii>Jc|- hamNhas to draw from, it is more than possible that she has gained the very knowledge needed in your 'case. She asks nothing in return except your goodwill, and.freY advice has helped thousands.

Samuel Oompers, at the recent convention In Washington of the Civic Federation, said of children: "Children should be protected from other evils besides the one evil of wage slavery, for, when free as air, tfrey have enough trouble, dear knows. "Walking along an East side street, I came on two tiny tots, the smaller of whom was bawling as if to break his lungs. "A window opened and a little girl shrieked: " 'Tommy, who's been a-hittin' of ye?' '"Nobody's been a-hittin' of him,' the larger tot answered. 'He's swallered a worm.' " Evidently Not. They had met at Bluepoint, L. I., two years before and were celebrating it by a little dinner at a cafe. "I shall nfeyer forget how we became acquainted," he was saying. "So romantic. In swimming. That was when I first saw you. You went into three feet of water and got frightened. I rescued you from a watery grave and We were friends at once." He called? the waiter. "Bring me the wine list," he said, explaining. "Because we began our acquaintance in a watery way, it needn't always be watery." MARK TWAIN, GREAT HUMORIST, IS O P E X P I R E S U N E X P E C T E D L Y , A T 6:30 T H U R S D A Y E V E N I N G A f ^ # R DAY OF UNUSUAL COMFORT. GREAT W R I T E R WAS 75 YEARS OLD; ONE DAUGHTER, MRS. QABRlLOWrTSCH, SURVIVES. Angina Pectoris the Cause of Death; Daughter Jean's Demise Behind the Great Humorist's I tineas. Samuel Langhorne Clemens, "Mark Twain," died painlessly at 6:30 Thurs day night at Redding, Ct., of angina pectoris. He lapsed into coma at '& o'clock in the afternoon and never recovered consciousness. It was the end of a man worn out by grief and acute agony of body. He was 75 years eld. All hope of recovery was Abandoned when It was evident to the physicians attendant upon him that the patient was gradually losing ground. He had been conscious through practically all of his illness and had considerable knowledge of bis condition and of the fight that was in progress. His spirits kept up to the last, and he tried to joke a little with those about him. The physicians scarcely expected that he would live through the night, but in the early morning he dropped off to sleep. The morning hours gave him the best sleep he had had since he returned home, and he woke much refreshed. Because of the benefit he had derived from the night's few hours rest, hope revived that after all he might rally sufficiently to prolong his life by a few days at any rate, even though ultimate recovery seemed impossible. His condition remained improved until early in the afternoon. Throughout the forenoon he was partially conscious, now and then realizing bis surroundings and occasionally speaking a few words to express some wish or to ask a question as to his own condition or matters about his place At the death-bed were only Mrs. Gabrilowitsch (Clara Clemens), her husband, Dr. Robert Halsey, Dr. Quintard, Albert Bigelow Paine, who will write Mark Twain's biography and is his literary executor, and the two trained nurses. Restoratives—digitalis, strychnine and camphor—were administered but tho patient failed to respond. Mark Twain did not die in anguish. Sedatives soothed his pain, but in his moments of consciousness the mental depression persisted. Angina pectoris is a paroxysmal af fection of the chest of baffling and obscure origin, characterized by se vere pain; faintness SJ&4 d«ep depression of the spirits. The pain is severe and of an oppressive crushing or stabbing character. The attacks progress in frequency and severity with uncertain Intermissions, some times of long duration, to a fatal termination. Wttftra Cassia At A Grain Producer N E V E R 8 A W SUCH F I N E W H E A T A N Y W H E R E . Gust. Anderson of Maidstone, Sask, was formerly of Minnesota and has been in Central Canada three years. 6 n January 16t 1910, he writes: . "Arriving fifteen miles from Maidstone, I bought a couple of steers from a rancher, as my capital was not large, and with the two oxen I brought; with me, I broke 25 acres which I put Th crop in 1908 and had to clear some brush. I earned 146.00 by breaking fifteen acres for a neighbor and during the summer I put up hay and hauled timber and put up houses for other settlers. Notwithstanding a heavy frost on August 12th, I had 22½ bushels of wheat per acre and 60 bushels of oats. Off 35 acres of wheat in 1909, I got 27 bushels - of wheat per acre and 1,300 bushels of oats off 20 acres. I never saw such fine wheat anywhere. We have plenty of rain between May and August and after August seldom any but dry warm days. Water can be had at from 20 to 40 feet and plenty of grass for cattle." The evidence of Mr. Anderson Is given because it is encouraging to the man of small means who is desirous of bettering his condition. It shows what can be done, and there is really but small limit to the man with push and energy to become wealthy on Canadian lands. And the grain that he raises is good. A press dispatch says: The quality of the wheat continues to be the feature of the deliveries. In the total of 3,378 cars in the February Inspections there were 2,847 of high grade stuff, a percentage of 84.28. For January the percentage was 82.21, and for the six months it was 88.6. This is an unusually high average, and it demonstrates beyond the shadow of a doubt that the farmers in this part of the Dominion still know how to grow first-class wheat. The crop of 1908 was considered good enough, and its average of contract wheat was only 70 per cent. Good weather throughout the season was an important factor, of course, in insuring the high quality of the grain, and it is not likely that atmospheric influences of so favorable a character will be encountered for a long time to come. The best that can be expected is that a fair average for a term of years will be maintained. Pennsylvanif n'e Lapse of Memory. Forgetting that he had Btarted to draw a gallon of whisky from a barrel in the cellar, A. C. Hidlay, proprietor of the Hotel Hidlay. Bloomsburg, Pa., left the spigot turned on and went upstairs. Two hours later he remembered it and hastened there. He found that it had all run away and into the sewer. His loss because of his lapse of memory will be about $100.—From the Philadelphia Record. POSTUM FOR MOTHERS The Drink That Nourishes and Supplies Food for Mother and Child. "My husband had been unable to drink coffee for several years, so we were very glad to give Postum a trial and when we understood that long boiling would bring out the delicious flavour, we have been highly pleased with it "It is one of the finest things for nursing mothers that I have ever seen. It keeps up the mother's strength and Increases the supply of nourishment for the child if partaken of freely. I drank it between meals instead of water and found it most beneficial. "Our five-year-old boy has been very delicate stnee birth and haft developed slowly. .He was white and bloodless. I began to give him Postum freely and you would be surprised at the change.

It can be stated on authority that President Taft has decided to offer the vacancy on the supreme court bench, caused by Justice Brewer's death, to Gov. Hughes, of New York. Members of the New York state delegation in congress doubt whether Gov. Hughes will accept, and it is reported the assurance also may be given to the governor that in the event of a vacancy In the chief justiceship in President Taft's administration, he would be appointed to that place. But reports have been carried to the president that Gov. Hughes probably would accept an offer of this character. Chief Justice Fuller is eligible to retire, but he enjoys good health and so far as can be learned has no thought of leaving the bench. The Gould-Drexel Wedding. In a downpour of rain Miss Mar jorle Gould was married to Anthony J. Drexel, Jr., in New York, thus uniting fortunes totaling $40,000,000 and bringing into relationship two of the richest families of the United States. Few weddings had attracted a larger or more eagerly curious street crowd. Thousands of women and some hundreds of men were so intent in taking a peep at Miss Gould and the society folk that they stood for hours in a steady downpour. They endured the sodden weather for three hours, and occasionally rushed the police lines. Sultan Mehemed W of Turkey, is suffering from a alight attack of measles.

Of the many reasons advanced to explain this desertion of farms, two or three are especially worth noticing. Most important of all, perhaps. Is the wasteful system of cultivation that has so long prevailed In the United States. A fertile soil has In countless cases been exhausted by taking everything from [it and returning nothing to it. Add tto this the fact that there is a ^ a r k e d -trend of population from city to country, and that farm labor has become iso expensive as to leave little profit from the work of a laborer, and it is little wonder that so many owners of larms do not care to cultivate them. \ Relic hunters have been oreaklng Into the church where President Taft worships in Washington. During the past year it has been twice necessary jto rebuild the president's pew, and it jls no longer safe to leave the hymn Ibooks In the rack or the cushion jon the seat after the chief executive [has attended services, says Chicago iRecord-Herald. So many books and [cushions have been carried away that officials of the church now take everything that is movable from the pew as '.soon as the president ilnisb.es his demotions. Cannot something be done to jlessen the hardship that is thus put !upon the relic hunters? Why not furmlsh a plank for the president to alt Ion when he goes to church, and then (leave it for the relic hunters to whittle (up and divide among themselves? JBy having It made of some.kind of soft wood the comfort of the president and the convenience of the relic (hunters would both be provided for. ;We are a great people and ought to !be able somehow to keep our relic jhunters from feeling that they are bejing deprived of their rights.

Michigan In Millionaire Class— Hat $1,131,018.40 in Treasury; Corporation Taxes Coming In. Murder and Suicide at Nagaunta. Placing a stick ol dynamite under the bed occupied by hla wife and ?- year-old daughter and another under that occupied by himself and ait 5- year-old son, Frank Saarinen, aged 30, a miner, blew wife, son and himself to atoms at Negaunee. The infant girl escaped miraculously. Saariuen and his family had been two weeks in Negaunee, and so tar as is known by neighbors there had been no domestic difficulties. It is believed that the man was seized by a nt of insanity. The dynamite he probably carried with him from tho mine in which he was employed. The house was badly damaged by the terrific double explosion, both sticks of dynamite exploding at almost the same moment. How the Infant escaped is a myatery to the local authorities. When terrified neighbors rushed into the house after the explosion the babe was found unhurt on the floor of the bedroom, while all about it was the debris of the shattered bed and other furniture and huddled in a heap in one corner the terribly mangled, unrecognizable remains of the woman. Saarinen and his son were also badly mangled by the explosion, the boy's legs and arms being torn from his body. AB a result of the tragedy local mine officials say they will exercise a more careful watch over their stocks of dynamite and prevent the men from having free access to the explosive.

Warner issued the annual Arbor day proclamation, which reads as follows: "The season of planting and seed time has come, and In compliance with a custom that should have the force of law. I hereby designate Friday, April 29, 1910, as Arbor day. The Increasing importance of this day and its observance is urged upon our oltlzenR. 'Plant a tree' should be the watchword of everyone fortunate enough to own a portion of. Mlchlf an's fertile soil. The homes and arms, the parka and the highways of our state should bear evidence In the years to come that their future beauty and utility were kept in mind by those In whom their stewardship has been placed. "We owe this to posterity, but we will not have to wait beyond our own time for the reward, A love for na,- ture, for the shrubs, flowers and trees, should he inculcated in the youth of our land, and there should be a program arranged for every school for Arbor day with this end In view. The planting of the trees and the sowing of the seed should be followed by exercises that will make the day distinctive In the lesson that It teaches. "Those In authority in our cities and villages may well call the attention of the people to the day and the sentiment that first brought about its observance. Better care of the parks and playgrounds, improved conditions surrounding the public places will be the result of organized efforts, and no more valuable service can be rendered the people than the impressing upon them of the fact that this day means much to them and others."

The United States will be forced as Germany is to look to the Wheatflelds of Canada, One province alone raised last year oneeighth as much as the entire production of the United States, and but a twelfth of the wheat area has yet been touched. The Americans who have gone to Canada, are to-day reaping the benefit of the demand for Canadian wheat and they will continue to join, in the benefits thus reached for a great many years. Splendid yields are reported from the farms of that Country, and from land that the Government gives away in 160 acre blocks, and from other lands that have been purchased at from $12 to $16 an acre. John Munter,.near Eyebrow, Saskatchewan, a former resident of Minnesota says;, : "Last fall got over 30 bushels ot wheat to the acre and had 30 acre* of It; also 20 acrjes spring breaking on which I had flax of which 1 got almoat 20 bushels per acre.

He is considered hut a small farmer, but he will be one of the big farmers,' tsome of these days. There are many < others, hundreds of others* whose yields were beyond this, and whose average under crop was vastly greater. The story of the experience of American farmers in the Canadian West Is a long one. The time to l b , would appear to be now, when splendid selections may be made, and where land can be purchased at prices that will be doubled in a couple ot years. Overhenpecked. Former Governor Pennypacker, discussing at a dinner in Philadelphia the divorce evil, said with his humorous smile: "Perhaps there would be less divorce if human nature were more perfect.

Ay, and I comprehended exactly what such resolve would cost—realized fully what that mongrel crew would say and do the moment their ghostly terrors fled, and they knew I had given up Bearch for the treasure. I should have to command by brute force, by threat and blow. There would be mutiny aboard for every league until we made port. I knew the nature of that sea-scum forward—how they would whine and curse, how they would hate rae for failing to hold them to their course in face of death! Well, let them hate; my love was worth by far the more, and the life and honor of Lady Darlington outweighed all else on board—ay, and the treasure of the Donna Isabel! "Implicitly"— I saw her eyes again as she said it. and sprang to the deck, fumbling in the darkness for the latch of my door. The main cabin was dimly lighted and chill, the flre in the stove low. I paused to rattle it, and add a few lumps of coal from the scuttle standing near by. In spite of surrounding comforts what a grim, inhospitable place this was for any woman like her! The very snugness of the cabin served only to emphasize the gloom and peril without, the frightful polar mystery which surrounded us, which drives men mad amid its awful distances, its shrouded silence. Suddenly, directly opposite where I stood, I saw it again—that same shapeless, white, gliding figure. An instant only I stood rooted to the spot, my Mood Hke Ice, my eyes full of horror. * "then the swift reaction came, the reserve courage of a man ashamed of ';iu£h weakness,' and I leaped straight tqward the misty object, grappling at it with my hands. I touched nothing but air, falling headlong with a violence jarring the entire cabin, and overthrowing a chair crashing to the ifcfek. Dazed, confused, I staggered to my knees, staring about into the dim shadows.

"Yonder, you Bay? just where you saw it before?" I had not thought of that, yet it was true—there, beaide Tuttle's door.

She leaned eagerly forward, her breath on my cheek, her Angers clutching my arm. "Why —why that is a mirror you are looking into! See! What is it reflected there? Turn up the light until I locate the spot. Oh, I see now—the open pantry door. Mr. Stephens, there is where your ghost stood—it was the shadow of a man reflected in that mirror." Our eyes met, all my former terror fled, shame and anger dominating me. "Dade?" "It might. be-»certainly some one who sought in that way to terrorize officers and crew, and thus compel them to turn back. Whoever it was, he killed Mr. Tuttle, and now seeks to accomplish the same end with you. What are you going to do?" "Trace him down. The last time the fellow went, directly from here to the forecastle. There must be a passageway from stem to stern." She caught me as I turned, her gray eyes wide with apprehension. "You. will take me with you?" "That will be Impossible, Lady Darltngtift. I know nothing regarding this passage amidships, ^ut it must surely lead through the coal bunkers and the engine room." •"But—but 1 cannot let you go alone," utterly forgetting to conceal her agitation. "Truly, I could not bear to do It. Whoever this man may be he will become desperate when cornered. Your very life will be in danger." "And you really care?" my hand clasping hers, my eyes eagerly searching the graV depths. "Yes, I care," making no effort to free herself; "why should I no*? Think what our condition would be if you were not. on board. Yot that A not all; I care because I value your life, your friendship. Little as 1 c%* do. let me, at least, b« sear you." "You are near me," said I, utterly forgetful of circumstances in the sudden rush of passion, "always near me, became my thoughts are «*1ta you, a y tremely narrow, yeta of a height sufl cient to afford comparatively easy oasBage bad it only beep lighted. Suddenly a faint glow appeared ahead, and a moment later I slipped cautiously through a small bulkhead door standing ajar, into a low, square room, containing six bunks arranged in tiers of two. A slush lamp swung from a blackened beam, and various articles of wearing apparel dangled from hooks. I peered into the bunks, discovering three occupied, the unconscious sleepers being Cooky, the smooth-faced Chilean, and the gunner, a Swede named Gustafson. None awoke under my scrutiny, although the Chilean was talking in his sleep and threshing his arms about as if in nightmare. I bent down, looking at him more closely, attracted by something oddly familiar in the upturned features. By all the gods, the fellow was Lieut. Juan Sanchez, his long mustaches shaven, and looking ten years younger! It was so odd a thing, this sudden renewal of a controversy originating thousands of Jerques away, that I nearly laughed outright, forgetting for the Instant the serious- purpose bringing me there. Yet this surprising discovery of Sanchez aboard seemed of comparatively little importance, and was as quipkly dismissed. The narrow bulkhead door leading forward was tightly closed, and in that dim light 1 had to hunt for it, so perfectly was it fitted into place. When discovered, however, it proved to be unfastened, and 1 . stepped forth into an emptied coal bunker, whence 1 could look straight forward along the glowing boilers into the engine room. I advanced carefully along the slight open space until I came upon the squad of firemen and big lii\\ Anderson. The latter shaded his eyes, staring at me as though he mistook me for another ghost, but I took the initiative. "I have been investigating the arrangement of things below, Anderson," I said, in explanation; "rather odd way in which the yacht is cut up. Did you know there was a passage leading all the way aft?" The boatswain shook his head, too surly naturally to answer. "Well, possibly you know whether or not a similar passage leads forward into the forecastle?" "There's a bulkhead door over there," he returned, indicating by a gesture a spot concealed by the donkey pump, "but I don't know where it goes, only it's dark as hell." "It comes out under the forecastle, sir," broke in a coal heaver named Davis. "Leastwise there's a trap In the deck there, with a ladder leadin' down." "I'll finish the trip through, then, for I like to know what is under my feet when I command a vessel. Where is the engineer, Anderson?" -mr. ...^,-- _ watch alone* bit an *%0v joomH The fellow grinned, his bulldog jaw protruding. - "Well; I've had to do it on this trip whether I'm capable or not That follow cant stand it In here night an' day without no rest. I know how to ter gauge, if anything else goes wrong he's easy enough called." So it was McKnlgnt who was playing the antics of a ghost on board; McKnight who had discovered that unusual passageway through the bulkheads; HoKnight who had conceived the idea that in this manner he could frighten us into turning back. Well, truly, I did not altogether blame the man, and, now that my own fear of the supernatural was allayed, did not feel any desire to punish him severely. Still, his masquerade must stop before he thoroughly demoralized the crew, frightening them beyond all my power of control. I discovered the door concealed behind the donkey engine, left it Bllghtly ajar behind me, and stepped forward into the black passage. I had groped along to the very foot of the ladder, feeling nothing but bare walls, and hearing no sound except the slush of bilge water, when suddenly an inarticulate cry sounded, almost directly above; something, a hatch cover possibly, seemed to settle into place, and the ladder shook under my hand. I drew back a step, permitting the fellow to come down until he reached the floor. My eyes, accustomed to the gloom, enabled me to dimly perceive his shape. It was no more than a formless smudge he made, but I Btruck straight for what seemed to be the head, and landed with a force that dropped him like a log. In an instant I was on top, clasping the canvas sheet he wore tightly about his arms. and throttling him against the deck. He fought like a wild bull for a moment, thoroughly frightened and whimpering, dazed by the suddenness of attack, yet following the animal instinct of a struggle for life. "Damn you, McKnight, lie still!" I panted. "I've got you, and you might just as well take your medicine, ray man. Yes, that's a gun you feel, and 1 know how to use It. So you're the ghost of the Sea Queen, are you? I guess you know what this means if I turn you over to those fellows, don't you?" He groaned, and I ventured to release my grip on his throat, flinging back the canvas from his head. "Sit up. Well, I'll tell you, McKnight —you would probably go overbqard to feed the fishes. Do you recognize me?" "Yes, sir," managing to find his voice for the first time. "You're Mr. Stephens." "Right you are, and you can bless your lucky Btars that I am the one who caught you. What started you at this trick?" "It was the Chilean, sir, Sanchez; he said we could scare the whole outfit," "Did he do any of the ghost playing?" "No, sir; he didn't have the nerve, but—but he rigged me up, and found out about these passageways." What waB I to do wiih the man? In truth there was little I dared to do under the circumstances. "Now see here, McKnight," I said, soberly, "you quit this thing for good and all; if there is any more ghost walking done on the Sea Queen I'll turn you and Sanchez over to the men. Desldes, there's no use resorting again to that sort of trick, for we're about at the end of our cruise.'" "You mean we're going to turn north?" "Yes. Now if I let you go will you behave yourself?" (TO BE CONTINUED.) See End of Man's Dominion % Whote Matter Settled by Four Women Over the Tea Table. The women, taking their tea by the club window, talked. "They have a girl prompter at the Garrlck theater," said one. "The manager told me last night that he'll have none but women prompters after this. Their fine, clear voices carry so beautifully across the stage, while at the same time they are quite inaudible in the auditorium." "Of course," said another. "In teaming living languages, too, a woman is incomparably better than a man. A man has a thick guttural voice. His words are all mumbled and jumbled. But a woman's cieaf delivery—her open voice—gives every syllable Its j'dst value. In studying French.pr Oerffjan or Italian, ohoosa a woman, and your progroM will he easier aad faster." "Norwegian horses," said a third woman, "are at once spirited and gentle. Do you know why? Because it is the women, the farm women, who break them. They make pets of them first; the colts feed from their hands and follow them about like dogs. After that their breaking is easy. It is only done by kindness. And the result is that Norwegian horses have the best dispositions in the world." A fourth woman settled the whole matter. "As mental power ousts muscular power," she said, "woman, save in such irremediably brutal vocations as surgery or pig-sticking, will supersede man all along the line." Origin of "Living on Tick." The phrase, "living on tick." dates back to the seventeenth century, wh*n s tradesman's bill was known as a tkkou The Response Mechanical. It is the custom in convents for the nuns to respond to a knock at the door with the words r "in the name of God," the phrase being equivalent In conventional parlance to our worldly •enter" or "come in." In a convent in one of the western cities not loug since, the mother superior bad a never-to-be-forgotten experience as a result of this custom. Some one in the outer world called the convent telephone number by mistake. The mother superior, roused from her meditations, picked up the receiver and responded mechanically; "In the name of God." "Madam!" called an irate masculine voice at the other end of the wire, "there is no occasion for you to swear at me, even if l have made a mistake in the number. Profane language is prohibited over the telephone!"

I have seen one of these boys looking wistfully at a group of romping cnlldren, longing to Join In their play, but deterred by the woman who had him in charge. They, dressed in corduroy or gingham, are without fear of soiling their clothes; he, rigged out in a white "wash" suit, v, knows that one speck of dirt on it •5 will bring down the anathemas of the she dragon hired to keep him clean. Tommy Bttrcb and I would have been friends in our childhood had we been permitted. But Tommy was always immaculately dressed, and a middle aged lady tutor-nurse £ad Mm in charge to elevate his mind. I was always dirty, and my mother seldom put good clothes on me, for she knew I would tear them to tatters climbing trees. If Tommy had had a common nurse he migbt have occasionally got away from her, but with his governess it was another matter. He was never permitted to be out of her eight for a moment- The worst of it was that Tom was not born a milksop. He became one because he couldn't help himself. When he had got rid of his governess he begged me to take him gunning and fishing and all that. A love of such sports was born In him, but he had been so delicately reared that he was unable to Stand the hardships they involved and couldn't keep pace with me in anything. Nevertheless 1 was fond Q]L him, And we became quite chummy. So after a first effort tu| tramping fill day through a wood and eating bacon and hardtack for supper he gave It up and devoted himself to drawing pictures, for which he hah considerable talent.

My cousin,' Frances Rose, having become the ob)ect of Burch's adoration. he confided the secret to me and asked me to sound tier ns to whether there was any cuance for him. 1 suggested to:her one day that she and Tom would m^ke a good' match. ?I make a match with tha,t ladylike yojang man!" she exclaimed disdainful ly. "Not much!" *He might at least teach you to speak good English." 1 retorted. Then I told her of the way Tom had been brought up and the dragon and all that. She listened attentively and from contempt, with a woman's sudden change of front, veered right round to sympathy. So when I proposed that she help me to try to rectify the damage done she fell in with the plan. We were to coach Tom in athletic games and manly amusements, giving him sundry hard raps, such as he should have had years before. All I let him know about It was that Frank admired manly men and he'd better go in for athletics. He was a trifle old to begin, but I promised to help him. I commenced with boxing gloves and after a few lessons hammered him so unmercifully that I feared 1 had killed him. When he came round 1 told him I'd turn him over to Frank for a new beginning, which she, a girl, would be bettor fitted to make than I, a right tackle football man. Prank took him up. and 1 could plainly see she developed a deep interest in the work. I have seen her keep him on the tennis court, playing first a set. then a double set, losing Just enough games to necessitate a "playoff." the sweat running down his cheeks, his neck and trickling down his back, while he panted like a horse with the heaves. X crisis came at last. It was in crops country horseback riding. Frank cou'ld ride like a centaur. She disdained to strain a horse by sitting sidewise. She rode straddle with divided skirts. She made Tom get out of bed — before daylight to ride with her, increasing the length of their canters till on one occasion she kept the poor beggar out without a morsel of food from 5 o'clock till noon. During^this timje he was obliged to jump his hoke, she leading the way over fences, ditches and logs. He had been born with no craven spirit and would have gone to his death rather than give in to her. This lad her to push him to see how far he would go, till one day she went over a log so large that she-barely missed It. Tom, who was not'so expert a horseman, raised his beast too soon, and the animal, coming down with his belly flat on the log,: rolled over on his rider. I was sent for to go to Tom's house and found Frank there in the hall looking like a ghost, while the doctor was; making up his mind whether there was any chance for the milksop she had been trying to make a man of. Tom hov.ered between life aud death for a moot*, then, gradually came around. The first thing be did after getting out was to—come to me and tell me of bis engagement to my rousin. I wasn't surprised, for he Lad shown thut bad he been suffered to make u man of himself in the first place he would have dope so. What the dragon hud spoiled a splendid girl made over successfully. When I spoke to Frank about her engagement I said. "I thought you couldn't marry a ladylike young man.'* "Shut up!" she cried sharply. "He's as manly as you. He followed me everywhere X led, even at the risk of his neck." I smiled, but made no reply. China's BI& Celebration. T h e exposition fever has at length struck Chiua.

Effingham, N. H.Mar. 5 and Apr. 11, '09." Treatment for Lump Jaw. Lump jaw is due to a fungus which Is usually taken into the animal's system in feed consumed. Lump jaw is liable to affect the glands of the throat or the bones of the head, writes Doctor David Roberts in American Cultivator. It is not advisable to keep an animal thus afflicted lingering In a herd. On the other hand it la advisable to either treat BUCIL-an animal or kill it, as such animate invite di*> eases into the herd, owing to tbe fact that they are so reduced in vitality that they have no resisting power. A remarkably large per cent, of suoh cases can be successfully treated if taken in time by opening up the enlargement and washing it out with a strong antiseptic solution, like five of carbolic acid in water, and putting the animals on a tonic. In this way the affil ted animal is not only saved, but toe entire herd is protected against disease.

Portable trellises of wood or wire are convenient for peas, running beans and tomatoes. All of the cabbage family do very well if the seed is planted in hllis, then*, thinned out. The peaDut crop is extensively grown in five continents, but first used as a delicacy in America. The larger vegetables, as peas, corn, tomatoes, etc., need rows three to four feet apart, and melons even more. There should be a great abundance of peas, lima and bush beans, and tomatoes, for these are easily grown. For use as a fertilizer, ground limestone should be fine enough to pass a sieve having 50 meshes to the linear inch, . There is as much work, sometimes more, seeing a weakly plant through the season as there is caring for a robust, strong one. The better the arrangement of crops with good provision for tho supply of humua to the soil, the greater the profit from farming. As to garden tools, it is best to own a plow, a harrow, and a horse cultivator, if one can afford to, even if the . horse must be hired. Peas, corn, beans, tomatoes, the melon family and potatoes, should be grown from seeds selected year after year from the best specimens In one's own garden. Many of our best farmers practice the system of sowing some Clover seed with all grain crops and they find that splendid returns are received on money invested in this way.

(BY AT.VIN KKYSRK, COLORADO AGR I C U L T U R A L COLLEGE.) In growing milo it is essential to get the right variety to start with. There are two types of milo on the market— the yellow and the white. Yellow milo is superior to white milo. There are quite a number of varieties of the yellow milo. These vary in height from two feet to fifteen feet. The extremely dwarf and the extremely tall forms should be avoided. Those varieties which grow to a height of from four to six feet, under ordinary conditions, are preferable. The extremely dwarf sorts do not yield well enough. The tall varieties mostly come from the south, consequently, they are late maturing and less drought resistant than those which grow to a medium height. Home grown seed in preferable whenever it can be obtained. "Something like po*4cy. It's a lottery, you know."—Cleveland Leader. DODDS ^ KIDNEY^ Start Beans1 and Melons. It is a good plan to start lima beans, water melon, musk melons and squash in tin cans. Fill tho cans nearly full of rich soil and set them in a moderately warm room where they will have plenty of sunshine. Plant lima beans with the eyes down and soon as the plants have long shoots and are ready to climb transplant them to the garden. Be sure that all danger of frost is over before transplanting as the young bean plants are very tender and it does not take much frost to kill them. with a neighboring house within 20 feet of us. Though such conditions are unfavorable for beekeeping the thought of putting tlfe bees on the roof of a woodshed occurred- to me; and, though tho idea was laughed at, I built some framework and placet! upon it my two hives with two additional. Though the beep were just over the door as shown In the picture, the only lime they gave us any trouble was after I had robbed them. Then they would be "numerous" for a short time. I reached the hive by way of an apple tree close by, or through the window above, in which the screen was bung on a hinge. From this roof I took about nno pounds of honey from four hives, (quite1 good returns from a roof seven feet square, ordinarily considered useleas for producing anything).

The charm of the gtft.lfcM partly in the delicious flavor of the. candy and partly in the aUractlveneaa of the packing. One esseoslry effective box waa packed with eryataUsed pineapple and candied orante,-* rape fruit and lemon peel, with a, decoration, of candied mint leaves, cherries and angelica on the top. After :fts\cfcl^g carefully, before putting W $£• box*, cover, the candy sj^ajr he wrared with a paper lace,dfiily<.. .W i ffhfcre is a simple method, of preniaV U # i h e crystalised peel that is in every wa^r satisfactory. Take the rind of two gnpe fruits or four oranges, removing I U ^portion of the tough fiber separating the sections that may adhere, but leaving the white lining of the yellow rind. With scissors cut the peel in strips one-quarter or three-eighths of an inch wide, cover with plenty of water and boll slowly for half an hour. Drain, coyer with fresh cold water and bell again for another half hour. Then pour off all the water, add a large cup of granulated sugar and half a cupful of cold water and boil until all the sirup has been absorbed. Scatter on pieces of brown paper to cool and dry a little/then, roll in fine granulated sugar. The peel of lemons, mandarins and limes may be prepared in the same way and a few strips of each mixed In a box pf candied orange and grape fruit afford a pleasant variety. ? Cjsndjed pineapple., strips are . deliclous'and,' are easify prepared. The fruit laYflfat peeled, thee cut in strips quantity of gjraau.lated sugar, and lei It stand.until the sugar is dissolved, rhich may be nearly twenty-lour loura.' Drain off tne juice'.a.fiif&M it iva minutes, then add i&f Wstfichk cook for three or four mlht^s^'ctfcm *h* pineapple and spread anja pljitf^r \Q dry. The process may be hastened by putting the platter lu the^sua, Uie warming closet, or even on. t her top of a radiator. The fruit 8houd*>*e> turned once and then rollea in fine granulated sugar. The process is a much more -lengthy one than that required for tho "fruit peel, but a few pieces put in each box make a delicious addition. The cherries and mint leaves may be prepared In similar fashion, but as tbey are easily secured at large groceries for confectionery shops, together with angelica, which has such an exquisite ^flavor, and as only a small quantity is required for a dozen or more boxes, it seems hardly worth while to make them at home. A Blngle cherry in the middle of a box with a circle of mint leaves and narrow strips of angelica about it-gives to the sweets an artistic touch.—Los Angeles Herald. Easy Way to Wash. Soak all the white clothes the day before In lukewarm water rubbing the soiled spots with naphtha soap. Then put over fife to melt two bars of any good washing soap with one cup of water. When thoroughly dissolved "take out of doors" and add one cup of gasoline. In the morning fill your boiler half full of water and put in two cupfuls of the soap mixture, turn your clothes out of soak and put in boiler and boll as usual; then rinse in two waters. You will find the clothes a snowy white without any rubbing. You may wash the calicoes in this suds without having them fade, as the gasoline sets the colors, and a pailful may be strained through cloth, to free from lint, for the stockings. Old Hardwood Floors. Hardwood floors which have been badly scratched or damaged must be sandpapered and treated to a coating of wax. The wax must be allowed to dry thoroughly before the floor is used. Twenty-four hours is not long enough. In the case of parquet flooring, it will be necessary to scrape it first and then coat with shellac. If the floors are discolored where they are not protected by rugs, the scraping or sandpapering will remedy this also. iaV ' m Fruit Cakt for Dyspeptics. 1 tfitlr two heaping teaspoons of baking powder into three cups flour, • add one teaspoon salt, one-half teaspoon vanilla, one-half eup currants, one-half cup raisins, preferably sultanas, two-thirds cup milk; two-thirds . cup water.

The strike of the employes of the Philadelphia Rapid Transit company, which began February 19, was settled Thursday night. The committee of 19, composed of representatives of striking motormen and conductors from each of the barns of the Philadelphia Rapid Transit company, met and voted In favor of accepting a settlement offered by the company through representatives of the American Federation of Labor. The terms of the settlement have rot been made public, but it is said they include many of the features of th^ proposal made through Mayor/Reyburn, on March 20, when the company agreed to take back all. the strikers and to guarantee them $2 a day until regular runs could be secured for them.

Mr. Lloyd George is pleasantly proud of his nationality, but It 1B amazing that he had to go back to Queen Elisabeth and the Tudor* to find historical precedence for a Welsh government of Great Britain. On the other hand, England has often been ruled by Scotsmen. Of the hut three premiers, two—Sir Henry Campbell- Bannerman and Mr. Balfour—were Scotch. Mr. Gladstone sat for a Scotch constituency, and so does Mr. Asqulth. Ireland has always been busy supplying us with , governing men. The duke of Wellington, Lard Roberts, Lord Charles Beresford, Lord Russell and a doien other* immediately occur to one. It is odd to remember that it is centuries since Great Britain had a purely English sovereign. The Tudors were Welsh. The Stuarts were Scotch,, William III. was a Dutchman and the Guelphs are of German descent.— London Chronicle. Love at First Sight. Friend—So yours was a case of love at first sight? Mrs. Getthere— Yes, indeed. I fell desperately in love with my dear husband the moment T sot eyes upon him. 1 remember it as distinctly as if it were yesterday.

Critics and Managers Clash. Between the whole press of Copenhagen and all the theatrical managers a curious contest has started because the managers want to compel the critics to write only favorable notices. The contest began when the board of theatrical managers forbade the admission of one critic representing a special theatrical paper. The Marine Naturalist.

Certain Articles Must Be PrpvWed and the^ Accessories W i l l F o l l o w - Most Suitable Frocks for t h e Young Qirl. The young girl who cannot afford too many changes will be well supplied if she has a one-piece dress In a pretty wool of some sort, a pongee or tailored cotton dress, and a little top-coat In the new short length. Of course, there are other things to be desired—shirtwaists, hats and the dainty neck fixings now so essential to a smart appearance—but, after all, If the big things are accomplished the little ones come somehow. So, In doing her buying, let the ambitious mother look first for the garment that cannot be done without, and then do her best to match it later on with the needed details. Often, in this way, the necessary fixings can be had cheaper, for prices drop when the season is on the wing, and there Is always some chance of never having the needed garment of importance if the minor thing Is bought first. WIDE CHOICE Of PARASOLS Season's Offerings Give Every Worna i i r « Chanee to. Have a Distinctive Design. The assortment of parasols this year is almost endless. One manufacturing concern is stowing over 600 designs, and tritt^does hot take into account the variety of colorings under each design. •:, I The plain eoaehing parasol again has the field to itself. Of ruffles, flounces and drapery effects there are practically none. In point of number of ribs the buyer can get what she pleases. The samples Bhown have. seven, eight, nine, ten, 11, 12 and 18 ribs. The early demand has been for parasols made with nine or more ribs. The split Bpreaders with the gold finish are again favored in the Japanese effects having 12 or 16 ribs. Handles are long, some of them measuring fully 18 inches. Under the skillful manipulation of the handle makers, many ingenious conceits are brought o u t Even to a more remarkable degree than last year, large numbers of these handles splendidly match the covers, with which they combine to form the finished parasol. Among the novelties In handles are those whose ends are finished with disks or are of a mushroom shape. This particular type of handle is finished In a variety of ways, many are carved, some are enameled, others are inlaid with Jet end iteee. The novelties of the season Include a pagoda shaped parasol, having 12 ribs oorred upward for two or three Inches near the tips. This parasol is covered with a variety of silks and colorings, but Invariably is finished at the edge with a fluted border of The little frocks of pongee or Rajah silk supplied for young girls lend themselves In combination with any and everything, but though colors may go with them according to Mme. Mode, the soft yellows of such materials respond most beautifully to black or cream. The one-piece frocks, which are really two pieces, a bodice and skirt joined with a stitched belt, are often made with a front fastening that goes from the neck or bust to the hem of the skirt, the waist opening over a removable chemisette or a stitched yokev and the sleeves a i e close mutton legs or bishop models There is scarcely a drop at the front of any of the waists, though the old blouBing fall over the belt Is continually talked about and thlB tautnees of the bodice, and the skimpiness of all the .new skirts for young girls involves a very moderate amount of material for the average dress. In coats there are lengths that vary from the hip to a drop that may distinctly be called three-quarter, but a long, narrow opening of the front of the coat is a feature everywhere, and so, if the collar is not shawl-shaped, the revers are of the smallest Without a doubt, wash materials mn'-o the prettiest frocks in all cases for little girls from the baby ages up to seven or eight, and into the new styles for these small persons there has crept a simplicity which is all but severe. There Is not a flounce anywhere, unless It is one that forms the entire skirt, such as may be put at the bottom of a slip garment with long bodice cut; while the little Mother Hubbard dreBs and the kilted Russian one, which are both so easy to make, are as much as ever to the fore for the tinier totties. The neat semi-fitted coat shown is of a sort that would be needed all summer long if the garment were in a suitable lightweight material and not too darkly colored. Summer-weight covert in a very pale tan would be admirable for it, but such a coat could also form part of a suit of serge or wool canvass, Which would be needed in the mountains or at the seashore. It could also be of any of the stout linens or duck or cotton suiting materials which are used for coat suits. with the back of the collar and cuffs in a contrasting color, and round bone buttons to match the trimming. For size 16 4% yards of material 27 inches wide will be needed, or 2% yards if the stuff is in a 42-inch width *MjOLAAf * Uu i^a^7xy 40,000 FII1EK Ml UUPtm TfeaHesttaca De»rStr»;-Th«e .

Finally I did decide to use the Cuticura Remedies and I tell you that I was never so pleased as when I noticed that, after having, used two sets of Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment and Cuticura Pills, the entire inflammation had gone.

No matter what toqjr be the opinion, of Mr. Joeeeh Cajmon, p4 matter U he may be looked upon'by some as a czar, and by others as a big warmhearted man, with many of the instincts that make humanity very bearable, all will admit |hat he is a man who has been advertised more than any other man in the United States. What be may have to say therefore on any subject, will have weight. Observant, he speaks his mind freely. He was Interviewed the other day by the correspondent of a Canadian newspaper. He spoke of faia admiration for Canada, and he is quoted in a way that pictures farlly well the personal of the man. The correspondent says he launched out into personal biography, proverbial philosophy, political comment, cynical scorn, broad profanity and sentimental poetry such aa one rarely hears in the space of an hour. He discussed the Canadian tariff, and then said: "People say I break the Ten CommandmantB, all of them. But I don't, at least not often. I did break one of them up in Canada two or three years ago. As I rode from Winnipeg to the Rockies over your great West and saw the finest wheatfields in the world, I thought of Virginia and a lot of our States, and I smashed the Tenth Commandment every hour of the journey. Yes, sir, I coveted my neighbor's land." Coming from a man of the fame of Mr. Cannon, these were words that should have some weight with the Americans who may still have doubts of the advantages that are offered to them in Western Canada. A home amongst the wheatfields. Hundreds of thousands of Americans are adopting it. They go to Central Canada, to any one of the three Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan or Alberta, or to the Coast Province of British Columbia, take up their homestead of 160 acres, and probably pre-empt another 160 acres, or It may be they do not care for pioneering twenty or thirty miles from an existing railway, and purchase a farm. Then they settle upon it and, having no clearing away of timber they begin at once to cultivate it, and make money. That they make money and much more than they could possibly make on the highpriced farms they have left, is the evidence of hundreds of thousands. They do not leave civilized life, they but remove from one sphere to another. They have splendid social conditions, churches, schools, rural telephones, splendid roads, railways, convenient just the same as what they left and what is more, they get much greater returns from their crops, which give abundant yield. The climate is perfect, and it is no wonder that most flattering reports are sent back to their friends in the States, and it is no wonder that Joe Cannon was tempted to speak as he did. He "coveted" his neighbor's land. A 8ma(l Loaf. A half-famished fellow in the southern states tells of a baker (whose loaves had been growing "small by degrees and beautifully less") who, when going his rounds to serve his customers, stopped at the door of one and knocked, when the lady within exclaimed: "Who's there?" and was answered: "The baker." "What do you want?" "To leave your bread." "Well, you needn't make such a fuss about it; put it through the keyhole."

Automoblliatfi Help State Indisputable evidence that the state is in a prosperous condition is shown by the fact that the business in the office of the secretary of state increased nearly $17,000 in March 1910, over the receipts ot a year ago in that department. Much of this.is due to the number of auto licenses that were issued during the month there oeing 6.77'J issued sinoe Jan. 1, at $3 each and 1,265 chauffeurs having received licenses at $2 each.

A very valuable liabll for a farflrly to acquire is that or using pure and pr»- ciue language. As a matter of art such an acquisition la desirable. There are beauty and grace in toe very form of language correctly and concisely spoken. There Is a charm in the apeak* er who Is careful of his manner of speech. But far more important than the beauty of correct apeecb is the Intellectual vigor which it simulate* and promotes. The use of good language encourages the habit of clear thinking. Speaking well and thinking well naturally go together. The Intellectual process largely controls the manner of expression. This does not commend the use of stilted and pompous language, for that can be, and sometimes is used, to conceal the lack of thought Our object is to discourage mussy, lacoherent, scrappy and slangy speech, because it tends to ruin the mind and morals, too. People who use such Ian* guage have confused Ideas and lack an appreciation of what is true and beautiful. There 1B notbJng more serviceable in making good clean men and women out of the children, than a household habit of clear and concise expression. It proraoteanot only thinking, but thoughtfulnesa, and thoughtfulness is one of the greatat virtues -of a home. But make e*act and proper speech one of the institutions of the home and it will remove from the heart many anxieties for the future lof the child. « » M a j W M h * * * M i The proposition to cnange the date of presidential inauguration from 'March 4 to a day late in April, in order to avoid the risk of inclement weather, has ben sidetracked for the present There is opposition in congress on various grounds, but one of the most curious is that the movement is in the interest of the Washingtonians, who wan.t a chance for "showing off" under favorable conditions. There really is little glory for the Washington people in the inauguration exercises, and as they bear the expense of the spectacular part of the performance there would not be any serious damage done if once in every four years they did give themselves the privilege of getting into the spotlight. But the really serious objection to inauguration day in early March Is the risk involved to the lives and health of the participants. The immigration into tbe United States in 1909 did not reach record figures, tbe arrivals at New York, the chief port of entry, being 771,380, against 1.040.1G9 in 1907, which marked the Hood tide. Rut the ingress of aliens indicated that prosperity bad returned, for the ebb and flow of immigration correspond very closely to the industrial situation in this country.

Fresh air comei high, but we must have i t No one has yet suggested a patrolman to go about smashing in all closed bed-room windows. Field workers of the Michigan Anti- Saloon league met at the headquarters, Chamber of Commerce, Detroit. to map out a system of campaign that they will follow la future. The" conference resulted In a plan to carry the campaign into "wet" counties that heretofore have had no local option, The league will spend Its greatest energies in endeavoring to add Muskegon, Crawford, Montcalm, Huron, Montmorency, Grand Traverse, Cheboygan, Manistee and Iosco to the 40 counties that are already "dry." Several leaders of the league advocated a strenuous campaign in Calhoun, Jackson and Genesee counties, which are now "dry," but which may be pressed to a resubmission of the prohibition issue by the liquor interests. The league will make every effort to force their issue in Monroe, Washtenaw, Macomb, Kalamazoo and Saginaw counties. The leaders In these counties admit that they will have a hard fight, and say they are prepared for it. Supt. George W. Morrow is of the opinion that the next campaign will result in a repetition of what he calls the league's success in the recent election. "We have the situation fairly in view and, when we start the work, we will have it in hand. The field forces are all well content with the outcome of the recent election. It has given them enthusiasm to proceed with vigor and courage and persistence. We have almost half the state in control now, but we cannot rest until everything is our way." According to the leaders who were present Saturday afternoon, Wayne county will not be covered, as it Is believed that much in the way of education as to prohibition principles must be done before any hope of a successful campaign can be held. Those who were present at the session of the league were George W. Morrow, state superintendent; R. N. Holsaple, Grand Rapids, assistant superintendent; Pliny W. Marsh,-Detroit, state attorney; Theodore P. Dauer, Traverse City, district superintendent; Herbert H. Rood, Hillsdale, district superintendent; Grant M. Hudson, Schoolcraft, financial secretary; Caleb H. Rutledge, Ishpemlng, district superintendent. Farming Train Finishes Trip. The special train, carrying a traveling farmers' institute, under the auspices of the state board of agriculture, completed its two weeks' Journey through the state Friday after giving addresses and Instructions at several points along the Pere Marquette road south of Edmore. The train consists of four exhibit cars and two regular coaches. The exhibits arc all kinds of grain and' products, poultry and chemical effects on tuberculosis germs and those of other diseases. Stops made Friday by the trarellng institute were McBrlde, Stanton, Fenwick, Ionia, Lyons and Portland. Michigan Miners Seek Settlement. The Michigan miners propose to have the wage question settled in this state at the earliest possible moment and to this end the executive board has voted to submit a communication to the operators at once, requesting a joint conference at an early date to arrange a scale and working agreement for two years. The miners will make the Cincinnati demand of the miners the basis for treating with the operators. It is expected that an agreement will be reached within a reasonable time and that mining will be resumed in Michigan before long. It was also decided to serve notice on the miners at the Caledonia and Buena Vista mines, both co-operative properties, that tney must cease work at once or they would be dropped from the miners' organization. M. N. Q. Officers To Be Instructed. Something new for company officers of the Michigan national guard is to be furnished in June In the shape of an instruction camp at Fort Benjamin Harrison, Indianapolis. In pursuance of orders from the adjutantgeneral's office, Maj. Bersey. of the Light Guard, and Maj. Kraemer, of the Light Infantry, are endeavoring to find out how many of their company captains "and lieutenants will be able to attend the camp. A similar camp was held In 1908, but the Michigan officers did not attend.

The jury returns a true bill against Max O. Leslie, collector of delinquent taxes in Allegheny'county, who is accused of bribery. The indictment of Leslie follows his recent acquittal on a charge of perjury in claiming an alibi in connection with a previous 'indictment for alleged bribery. He is now charged with receiving $25,000 from the Colum bus National Bank of Pittsburg on June 3, 1908. In the former indictment the date was named as June 6. and Leslie proved that he was out oi the city at the time. It is charged that of the $25,000 he paid Over $17,- 500 to William Brand to bribe councilmen. Directors and officials of some of the six big banks which profited by the corrupt depository ordinance, are severely scored by the presentment. . Reason for Envy.

Sees Great Prosperity Ahead. James J. Hill, head of the Great Northern, Northern Pacific and Bur* Ilngton systems, came to Chicago in an optimistic frame of mind. He based his optimism on the crop prospects, an early spring, receptive condition of the ground for the pursuit of agriculture and volume of buslneas the railroad companies are handling. He said the spring wueat crop is being put into the ground four to five weeks eanier than usual, and estimated the increase in acreage at between 20 and 25 per cent. "Tbe ground is in excellent condition," he continued, "and with favorable surroundings, as the weather now promises, the coming farm yield should approximate $9,000,000,000, which la $1,000,000,000 in excess of that of last year, according to the figures supplied by the department of agriculture. "This enormous sum of money, which exceeds the world's gold supply, should cover a multitude of sins, and if the country is not disturbed by legislation and other unfavorable conditions, it should be in a highly pros* perous position at the end of the current year. The gold exports should not be distressing, as we have It to spare. Besides, why should we not pay our debts?" The DOQ Settled It. The multimillionaire was uncertain. 'But how do I know you can support my daughter in the manner to which she has been accustomed?" he demanded, dubiously. The imported nobleman smiled blandly. "I will,go te test," he volunteered.

"I always drank coffee with the rest of the family, for it seemed as If there was nothing for breakfast if we did not have it on the table. "I had been troubled some time with my heart, which did not feel right This trouble grew worse steadily. "Sometimes It would beat fast and at other times very slowly, so that I would hardly be able to do work for an hour or two after breakfast, and if I walked up a bill, it gave me a severe pain. "I had no idea of what the trouble was until a friend suggested that perhaps it might bo caused by coffee drinking. I tried leaving off the coffee and began drinking Postum. The change came quickly. I am now glad to say that I am entirely well of the heart trouble and attribute the relief to leaving off coffee and the use of Postum. "A number of my friends have abandoned the old fashioned coffee and have taken up with Postuea, which they are using steadily. There are some people that make Postum very weak and tasteless, but if it is boiled long enough, according to directions. It is a very delicious beverage. Wa have never used any of the old fashioned coffee since Postum was first started In our house." Read the little book, "The Road to Welrville."in pkgs.

In Which" We Bury Our Dead/ mack smoke was already trailing front out oat funnel in ever increasing ^volume, ths steadily revolving screw wis drVvtag the yacht forward with new power, and the only hit of canvas ihowlng was the ciose-reefed jib, left aa an aid to the wheelsmen. ';'! searched the after-cablus thoroughly tor a copy oftbe Scriptures, or any book containing the burial service. Qne might possibly have been discovered hidden away in the locked chests, hut I did not feel authorised to break these open on such quest, and so returned to the deck with nothing to guide me in the services to be conducted. The boatswain, assisted by two seamen, had prepared the bodies for their last long voyage, and while the drew gathered in a body on the snow-covered deck, the dead, shrouded "We can make It easy in three days, Mr. Stephens," broke in Anderson, loudly. "If we only have decent weath er, we could rip up that old hooker, copper the swag and be north-bound in that time." I never glanced toward him, my eyes still on the mate. "But the women. De Nova?" He was looking at them, and, following his eyes, I turned also. Celeste was' bending eagerly forward, her dark eyes sparkling with excitement; her mistress stood erect, grasping the edge of the longboat, her face flushed by the keen wind, her lips firmly pressed together. "I sink zat maybe zey vote wig ze crew, monsieur," smiled the Creole, pleasantly. Lady Darlington reached one hand out for the rail, her skirts flapping, her hair blowing free beneath her hat. "It will be beBt for us to go oh, Mr. Stephens," she said, quietly. "The men will never be satisfied otherwise; and I do not blame them. Too much has been risked already to turn back at the last moment because of a little additional peril. Nor am I willing it should be done merely to spare us a few more days of discomfort. We must take our chances, and, as for myself, I trust absolutely in your seamanship." : There was a growl of appreciation from below, Anderson's voice shouUng up hoarsely: "You're the right stuff!" but I stood there in silence, gating at her fa astonishment, feeling deserted by every one, and realising that the entire responsibility was now mine. More clearfy than any among them I comprehended the neril fronting us, the desperate cha £ • we were about to take, 'the casting of dice with death. Yet #*«i was there left for me to do? Absorately nothing; the choice had heen-ttade. "Is ft understood I am In commantf?" "Ay, ay, air!** "Very well, then," I said, "you have chosWh your bed, now you will lie in It Mr. De Nova, get the stokers be* low and* start the fires.

There is much depression about such burial scenes at sea, especially so In our circumstances and surroundings. But she insisted upon being present, and so at the last moment I returned to the cabin and escorted both her and Celeste to the deck. It was a dismal, melancholy scene, and I did not wonder at the slight shiver with which her ladyship glanced about. The swiftly descending snow, the whitened decks, trampled beneath the feet of the men, the bare spars overhead; the low-flying, duncolored clouds; the gray, tumbling waters; the low growl of the ice as the waveB battered its front; the silent semicircle of men standing motionless except for their shuffling feet; and those two white-draped figures lying extended across the rail—all combined to form a grim sea-picture the memory of which can never dissolve. Protected somewhat from the sharp wind by the cabin the men had flung aside their mufflers, so that their weather-beaten -faces, most of them heavily bearded, were plainly revealed. 1 could not but be Impressed with the motley crowd, as the lineaments of negro. Kanaka, and every variety of white degenerate were thus exposed. Their uneasy, shuffling feet, and the impatience depicted on their faces, aroused me to the requirements of the moment. I advanced to the rail, standlug beside the corpse of the mate. "Lads," I said, soberly, "when we bury shipmateg at sea there is a solemnity a bo g) the simple ceremony nnknown to the land. Far away from friends and home We give the body up to the great ocean to keep for eternity. Yet we aro sailors, long accustomed to the vicissitudes and perils of the deep; we have parted with shipmates, before in many seas, and not a few among you look forward to the time when comrades will be called upon to perform a similar service of respect over your bodies. Even now we sail forward into great danger, and none among us can prophesy what the morrow may bring of either life or death. Yet the sea is the sailor's sepulcher, the roar of the great waves hli requiem. I am no sea preacher, able th: .address you upon the hereafter, or fitted to eulogise the spirits of those whose bodies we are about to bury. You desire nothing of the kind. Neither can I read over these forms the usual burial service, for I eas«flfi4 no book containing R on board. 4» tharw aay sua asmsgiflap,, males, w will yotee a prayer before we drop. these bodiaa overboard T I looked.'along the —aUtoeha of faces, expecting. nothing , frogs —ike members of the crew, yet faintly hopeful that some, oaeor two might he led, to- respond. No one stirred^ however, the only sound on board the wind whistlin* through tb4 rigging and the heavy breathing of the men. "WelJ. toon* I added, regretfully, "nothing remains hut to commit tholr bodies to the deep, and may God have mercy on •letr eotd»!" ' r . { I lifted my hand in signal, but even aa I did so Lady Darlington anpke, the men who were about ft? jfilt the'planki pausing in wonderment, "Wait/Mr. Stephens; not without one wor<l of prayer. Let me speak it, if no one else wttf," . She came forward, throwing back hjer veiL and grasping my sleeve to ratals Heady footing on the heaving deck. For an instant there was an impressive silence; then- her voice arose, low, yet distinct, trembling to the accent of reverent prayer. I know not what she said; merely the simple breathing upward of a petition to the Almighty Father for pardon and guidance; yet never before did faith lay snch mighty hold upon me. It was short, only a few-faltering sentences, but the honesty of it, the faith so clearly evidenced in both words and face, impressed the roughest there. She paused, her head' still lowered; I beard some one say "Amen" solemnly, and raised my hand in signal. Noiselessly the ends of the planks were uptilted, and the two^neeted figures slid downward into the gray water. Instantly they disappeared beneath the unfathomable depths. So silently and expeditiously was this accomplished that she even failed to note the action, lifting her eyes wonderlingly to the bare planks, and with a choking sob burying her face in her hands. Without venturing a word I led her gently to the companion. Five minutes later I stood again upon the bridge, the deck beneath throbbing to the purse of the released engine, as the Sea Queen raced recklessly forward through the ice-girded waters in desperate effort to attain her goal. It was not a dark night, for the stars were out—such cold, dead stars they seamed—and a little later I knew the moon would come stealing up above the waste of waters, yet there was a haze hovering all about us, as though the entire surrounding atmosphere was thick with frost. I crouched down behind the slight protection _ of the tarpaulins, sweeping the horizon with n>y glasses, but discovering nothing to awaken alarm. 1 BSW nothing of the watch, except as I called for them. Then they came, clawing their way out of the snug holes where they hid from wind and water. However, there was little enough for any of us to do; we could sintply hold on, trusting in the strength of the keel under us, and sheering to eastward oX-the ice-pack. It was a wild, mad night, the wind freezing to the marrow, and every wave dashing its ley spray hurtling against the front of the wheelhouse. At eight bells I went below again, every muscle of my body aching, and my face tingling as though pierced by a thousand needles. 1 sat down before the red-hot stove in the cabin, thinking I should never get the cold thawed out of me. Yet inside of ten minutes, with head resting on the chair-back, and legs extended to keep my balance, I was sound asleep. Whether a sudden leap of the vessel or some unusual noise aroused me I cannot say. Dazed, confused, I sat upright, staring about me. for the moment scarcely realiaing where I was. I could hear the fierce pounding of the sea without, the shrieking of wind through th$ vcordas)i *nd the rattle and groaning of the woodwork as the s^lrittmfBMsgirTfaasli dined Into the hoi- «P &wmjk£imgkt her way hack to the craataf* A shower of half lashed the windows, rattling like shot against the shutters. Aa I glanced backward across my shoulder, I heard, above all that hellish uproar, a hollow, unearthly groan. I was upon my feet in an instant, grasping at the edge of the table, striving vainly to place the sound. For some cause I could not keep my eyes off Tuttle's door, every 'nerve pulsing with agony. Was it imagination, illusion? By all the gods, I beheld a white visionary form glide noiselessly forth and disappear as though dissolved in mist. It was certainly there, yet, in another instant. had vanished, I knew not how. I stared about into the dim corners, then leaned toward the door, seeking to open it. It was locked; of course it was, for the key was in my own pocket. Many4 times I have known fear, but not such fear as this which now smote me. Here was something intangible, something; I could not reach and throttle, a dim, frightful shade, coming from God alone knew whence. I pressed my hands to my head, and endeavored to laugh, to woo back my courage. Great heavens, was I also losing my mind? Was I to be haunted and pursued by evil fancies? Had the curse of this ship now descended upon me? I staggered to my feet holding on desperately to the table, seized the decanter from off the swinging shelf and drank deeply. Lord, what grim fancies a man may have when the physical organism is unstrung! 1 glanced at my watch, discovering 1 still had two hours below, and crossed over to my stateroom, nerving myseli to play the man, yet "glancing about fearfully Into the dancing shadows. 1 laughed as I closed the door,vbut shot the bolt hard, and lay there for an hour listening, every nerve a-tingle, before fatigue finally closed my eyes.

In Which We Lay the Ghost. The coming of night found our situation less promising— a thick veil ot clouds obscuring all gleam of stars. the wind veering more to the west- Ward and growing bitterly cold. The barometer was falling slowly, pres aging the approach of storm; yet nothing openly threatened with the exception of these thickening cloudmasses scudding up from out the southwest, their wildness reflected in the darkening sea, and the continuous thunder of waves along the ice-front blocking our passage. I visited the engine and boiler rooms, ordered hall speed and prompt attention to signals, took one last searching glance about the dimming horizon, and finally threw myself, without undressing, on my bunk for a brief rest below. As I lay there, thinking of that wild scene without, I discovered sleep impossible. Was I doing right thus to hold on for further southing? My conscience was not altogether clear, for I realized that it would be luck rather than seamanship that would take us through and bring us safely out again. Only some mystery of Providence had thus far given UE passage, had held the wind to another point of the compass, beating Luck the invading floes and yielding to ug an open sea. But would such fortune last—a day, two days, more? We could race northward with the ice, but what about that vast field stretching to the northwest? If by some shift of wind it were to close in, the helpless Sea Queen would be crushed like an eggshell. And Lady Darlington had said she trusted me implicitly. Was 1 showing myself worthy by thus pushing the yacht deeper into danger? (TO BE CONTINUED.) Must Risk Making Mistakes * - Man Afraid of Taking Chances Wii Never Accomplish Anything. The man whose career means deeda, results—the man who does things— is not afraid to risk mistakes. He ot whom it can be said: "He has never made a serious error of judgment—his record is flawless," will be found to be one who has done little or nothing worth while. He is so cautious In contemplating a move that he hardly dares to make it before its possible effect has been minimized or lost Guarding himself against the reproach ot public failures, he denies himself the satisfaction of work well done. It is hfs habit to study a situation until the time for action has passed. He shrinks from responsibility, as he fears criticism. He is swayed by the supercautlon that goes with a futile mediocrity. The other type of man investigates, decides and does. Criticism and the change of ridicule are ignored by him. Between action and , hesitation he chooses action every time. When it cosies to taking, a chance or waiting to see what will happen be takes ,1¾3 chance. He would rather risk a mistake than do nothing. He is willing to listen to both sides and then acts on his own judgment, welcoming the responsibility. IT he meets with failure he does the best thing possible to amend it. If he Is successful he gathers new hope in dealing with the next problem. That's the American spirit. Remunerative. "In the sheep raising district of England," remarked an Englishman now l.ving in New York, "there was an old man who used to wander about picking up and selling wool which the sheep scratched off their backs by rubbing against the hedges. The old fellow was somewhat of a bntt In the neighborhood, but he stuck to his work, unmindful of jeers, wandering miles over the downs every day—silent, absorbed, untiring. "Well, how much do you suppose that old boy left when he died? Just guess, now." "One thousand pounds,'' opined one ai*dUnr. "Five "hundred," »aJd another. I The r;»^r>nteur shook his head. "Wot a detuned cent," he said. '*I hear dot Levi has made an assignment, und he has only been married one week." "Veil, he alvays did believe dot marriage vas a failure." QUICK ACTION PRESCRIPTION CURES COLDS IN A DAY What is said to be the best and quickest prescription known to medical science for colds and coughs is as follows: "Get two ounces of Glycerine and half an ounce of Concentrated Pine compound. Then get half a pint of good whiskey and put the other two ingredients into it. Take a teaspoonful to a tablespoonful of this mixture after each meal and at bed time. Shake the bottle well each time." This has cured hundreds here. Be sure to get only the genuine Concentrated Pine. Each half ounce bottle comes put up in a tin screw-top case. Any druggist has it on hand or will quickly get it from his wholesale house. Don't use the weaker pine preparations. Ungenerous Lavishness. "Your former husband never complained about the alimony!" "No," answered Mrs. Flimgilt. "lit was brute enough to say his motto was 'Freedom at any cost!'" WORTH MOUNTAINS OFGOLD During Change of Life, says Mrs. Chas. Barclay Graniteville, V t — " I was passinff through the Change of Life andsufferea ?i from nervousness and other annoying symptoms, and I can truly say that LydiaE.Pinkham'a V e g e t a b l e Compound has proved worth mountains of gold to mc, as it restored my health and strength, I never forget to tell my friends what .

BARCLAY, B.F.D.,Graniteville, Vt. No other medicine for woman's ills has received such widespread and unqualified endorsement. No other medicine we know of has such a record of cures of female ills as has Lydia £ . Plnkham's Vegetable Compound. For more than 30 years it has been curing female complaints such as inflammation, ulceration, local weaknesses, fibroid tumors, irregularities, periodic pains, backache, indigestion and nervous prostration, ana it is unequalled for carrying women safely through the period of change of Ufa It costs hut little to try Lydia B.

WHAT CAN BE ANY FAIRER OR MORE SATISFACTORY? American Farm Products Co. Owosso. Mich. Bribery In English Elections. Bribery Is a term which every candidate for a seat in the Imperial assembly dreads, for the law visits offenders against it with very heavy punishment, and more than one politician has realized that the game is not worth the candle. The would be M. P. must be very careful not to give, lend or promise money or money's worth to Induce an elector to vote for him or abstain from voting for an opponent Neither must he pay the day's wages of any voter or give hlra money for railway fares or loss of time. If he does and is elected the candidate loses his seat, and both he and the recipient of his 111 advised gift are liable to twelve months' imprisonment or a fine not exceeding £200. Even treating the wives or relatives of electors may constitute an offense, and the quantity is immaterial if the intention Is corrupt. The withdrawal of custom from a tradesman, if done with a view to affecting the man's vote, constitutes un due influence, for which the punishment is the same as in the case of bribery.—Pearson's Weekly.

The stock whip In the skillful hands of the Australian is not only an article of the greatest utility, but also a formidable weapon. Owing to Its great length—the lash varies from twelve to thirty feet—and the shortness of the butt, which measures ouly eighteen Inches, it is an extremely difficult and awkward thing to wield, and the beginner is apt to hurt himself if he does not exercise care when practicing. A well trained stockman, however, can hit a cent every time at ten paces distance and with the dreaded lash in his hand, cracking like pistol shots, can keep a mob of wild cattle in check. If used with full force it will cut through skin and flesh like a knife, says the Wide World Magazine, but unless a beast shows distinct vice the stockman uses It more for the purpose of instilling fear than of causing pain. It can also be used as a bolas, a Patagonlau form of the lasso, and an adept can catch and hold a beasf by causing the lash to curl around its legs. T. READ.

One such is nut croquettes, very unuHual sad dainty, tuade thus: Grate enough second-day brpad to make two cupfuls, chop In tbe meat chopper or the nut mljl one and onethird cupfuls of shelled English walnuts. Stir these together in a basin with a small piece of butter, a tablespoonful of grated onion Juice and a tablespoonful of mace Melt in a skillet aue lurge teaspoonful of butter, with half a teaspoonful of flour; add slowly one cup,of sweet milk. Allow this to boil, then add the other ingredients with salt to taste. Add a beaten egg and. when removed from the fire, a teaspoonful of lemon Juice. Mix thoroughly and turn upon a platter to cool Roll into balls or cones Dip in egg and bread crumbs as usual and fry in deep fat. Serve with tomato sauce Stuffed Peppers.—Have as many stuffed peppers fis there will be guests. Cut a lid from the top of each, shave off the stem and smooth with a sharp knife. Extract th* seeds and the tough membrane with a small knife having a sharp point. Then rinse and drain. Stuff them with a force-meat made as directed for cnrpiettes in the above recipe, cover the top with bread crumbs and arrange in a baking pan with a dot of butter on each, and just enough butter to prevent burning and brown nicely. Serve with brown sauce. Dumpling Desserts.—To .some young people this dessert is the chef d'ouvre of the household repertoire. Either canned or stewed fruit is available. the juicier the better Berries are especially good If any one has compunctions as to marring the perfection of raspberries or strawberries by stewing them, the hint may be preserved for huckleberries and blackberries, which are delicious as a compote. Stew or rather simmer the berries until tender When done add 'fugar enough to make them pleasantly Hweet, but do not stir after addingthis, as it would cause the sugar to candy. Keep them hot over a low flame and turn into the saucepan a dumpling made of milk, flour, sugar, one egg and baking powder. The proportions of the dumpling vary according to the size of the puree.

"No Such Man in Europe." Col. Theodore Roosevelt talked briefly with newspaper correspondents shortly after his arrival in Naples. One of them afterwards said: "Overflowing vitality seems to be his dominating characteristic. Europe contains no such type of statesman.

BABY'S SKIN TORTURE "When our baby was seven weeks old he broke out with what we thought was heat, but which gradually grew worse. We called in a doctor. He said it was eczema and from that time we doctored six months with three of the best doctors- in Atchison but he cfnp> got .Worse. His face, head and fcands, were a solid sore. There was a© e.»jdto^,the.suffering for him. We % a d M o tie his little hands to keep n l » from scratching. He never knew,'Whit it was to steep well from thg'ttW^lfcrtodk t h e dfs**se ufitil he was cured. He kept us awake all hours.',of the night and his health wasn't what you would call good. We tried everything but the right thing. "Finally I got a set of the Cuticura Remedies and I am pleased to say we did not use all of them until he was cured. We have waited a year and a half to see if it would return but It never has and to-day his skin is clear and fair as it possibly could be. I hope Cuticura may save some one else's little ones suffering and also their pocket-books. John Leason, 1403 Atchison St., Atchison, Kan., Oct. 19, 1909." In Demand.

Finally a gruff voice asked: " 'Where's that fool that put it to sleep this afternoon, I wonder?' " Money and expense are not essential to artistic homes and attractive rooms. One dollar nnd fifty cents' worth of material will completely transform a crude, inartistic: room into a graceful, dainty apartment. Really it is good taste and skill that makes the h»me homelike. That dainty touch i.s worth twice as much as money. Wall paper i* expensive—it costs money to buy it, to hun>j it and again to remove it. With the u>se of the alahastined wall there is only the slight cost of the material--any one can brush it on—and it is not necensnry to wash il off the wall when-- a fresh coat is required. It ia very easy to mix, very simple to apply, but the results are simply beautiful. ' A whole house can be done at just a little move than the cost of a single room when ordinary materials are used. And this is true, that now that we have PO much better materials- for use in the decoration of our homes, that wall paper, common kalsomine and paint are now as much out of date as the old time whitewash, tallow candles and rough hewn floors." Mere money is no longer an esnejvtial in good housofurnishing in artistic home making. The new materials an \ labor-saving machines are most welcome to us all—and #Very thoughtful woman, every woman who'care* for her home, ia quick to utilize them.

EXCELLENT TRADE IN WESTERN CANADA SPLENDID CROP8, Bf<3 PRICES, AND PROSPEROUS OUTLOOK FOR THE FUTURE. Throughout all of Canada, and especially in the Western Provinces of Canada, there is a buoyancy in every line of-business t h a t is fully warranted by every condition. T h e crops of the past year were what was expected, * n d t h e pricey for grain of all kinds, put the farmers in a class by themselves. Many of them are independent, a n d many others have got well started on the road- The latest reports are t h a t seeding is well under way in almost every district, and the prospects are that a vastly larger area than t h a t under crop last year will be seeded early this spring. In the Lethbridge district, in Southern Alberta, steam and gasoline outfits, hundreds of them, a r e breaking up the prairie at a tremendous pace, but they work night and day. As soon as it becomes dark, gangs are changed, a head light attached, and on, on through the night until the first streak of dawn, these giant monsters with their seven or eight gangs of breaking plows, keep up the work. Then the more modest farmer is putting in the longest hours possible with bis teams of horses or oxen. And what will the Country be like in August, when these fields have become yellowed with the literally golden grain. T h e r e will be one vast expanse of wheat field. And there will be a market for it, because it is the best grain grown, and the demand will be everywhere. As previously intimated business throughout Western Canada is sound and good. The grain production of 1909 has been the great factor in establishing the reputation of Western Canada, and it is worth talking about. It surpassed all previous records, both in regard to quality and quantity, and such an achievement was by no means easy. The limit has not been reached, and a large average increase may be expected during the next ten years. There will be odd seasons when a falling-off will occur, and it is the falling- off that causes alarms and panics in the commercial world. The plains have clone their duty so far in the out-put of grain and it would be reasonable to make occasional allowances for slowing-up. The faster the rate of increase is now, the sharper will be the check when the production diminishes, Hut there are some unreasonable people who wonder why the growth of one year is not continued during the next, and at an even faster rate. These same unreasonable people are the ones who see flaws in the situation as soon as an indication is given that the startling advances have not been maintained. A Call for Cough Drops. "I tell you I must have some money," roared the king of Maritania, who was in sore financial straits. "Somebody will have to cough up."

LADNESS COMES- m» *m a * With a better understanding of the transient nature of the many physical ills which vanish before proper efforts—gentle efforts—pleasant efforts—rightly directed. There is comfort in the knowledge that so many forms of illness are not due to any actual disease, but simply to a,constipated condition of the system, which the pleasant family laxative. Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, promptly removes. That is why it is the only remedy with millions of families, and is everywhere esteemed so highly by all who value good health. Its beneficial effects are due to the fact that it is the only remedy which promotes internal cleanliness, without debilitating the organs on which it acts. It is, therefore, all-important, in order to get its beneficial effects, to purchase and note that you have the genuine article, which is manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. only. It is pleasant and refreshing to the taste, and acts gently yet promptly on the kidneys, liver and bowels, cleanses the system effectually, dispels colds, headaches and fevers and assists in overcoming habitual constipation permanently, also biliousness and the many ills resulting therefrom. The great trouble with all other purgatives and aperients is not that they fail to act when a single dose is taken, but that they act too violently and invariably tend to produce a habit of body requiring constantly augmented doses. Children enjoy the pleasant taste and gentle action of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, the ladies find it delightful and beneficial whenever a laxative remedy is needed, and business men pronounce it invaluable, as it may be taken without interfering with business and does not gripe nor nauseate. When buying note the name, California Fig Syrup Co. printed on the front of every package. Price, 5 0 cents a bottle. ^ S S W i a J The Overland mmmmmm—m m—mmmm—mm—m—mmmmmm The King of Cars No other car has so large a sale—none has made such amazing records. Price, $1,000 up. It requires four factories, employing 4,000 men—turning out 140 Overlands daily—to meet the Mood-like demand for these cars. Yet two years ago a hundred rivals had a larger ?\i!e.

He designed the pedal control. One goes forward or backward, slow or fust, by merely pushing pedals. The hands have nothing to do but steer. A child can master the car in ten minutes. A novice can drive it ;» thousand miles without any thought ol* trouble. Tbe Overland always keeps going. and almost cares for itself. All the usual complexities have been eliminated. That is why each oar sells others, and our orders for this year's Overlands amount to $2 t,000,000. Another fact is that no other car gives nearly so much for the money. This is due to our enormous output, and the fortunes Invested in our automatic machinery, it would bankrupt a smaller maker to try to compete with us.

[Copyright, 1909, by American Press Aaeociatlon.] It was visitors' day at Ludlow street Jail, New York. Ludlow street jail Is • very gentle counterpart of the debtors' prison of the olden time. Its inmates are those in contempt of the inheritance and certain other courts, federal bankrupts, execution and judgment debtors and breach of promise gs**- alimony men. J#|m Decker had finished bis break- Isaljtv of rolls, coffee and an egg—he , M N I have breakfasted more heartily had he been able to' order from a neighboring restaurant—and was sitting in the lounging room reading a morning paper when a card was handed him. He looked at it, frowned and said: "I understood when I was put in here that no prisoner was obliged to see his wife. Tell the sheriff that I claim the Immunity promised." The message was delivered, and presently the sheriff himself appeared. "Your wife says, Mr. Decker, that she has come with the olive branch, and she told me to say in case you declined to receive her that she has your son Johnny with her and wishes to know if you will see him." The hard lines on Decker's face relaxed. "Yes, if you wilt bring him In here." The sheriff retired, and in a few mimites a ,boy of six came bounding Into the room and, springing into his father's arms, covered his face with kisses. They were returned in kind, while a tear stood in the man's eye. "Mamma gave me a message for you, papa. She says she was told that you were hiding money." "Who told her that?" "Mrs. Spiffire." "That Jezebel! She made all the trouble." •'And mamma says I was sick and baby was sick, and she was turned out of the rooms,, and nothing to buy meat or medicines, and"— The man put his hand on the boy's mouth. "Never mind all that. Johnny. I can't bear It." ''And mamma says she's been studying stenography and has got a place. She doesn't wish you to stay here any longer" "What does she wish me to do?" "First to forgive her for putting ymt in here." ''What next?" "I wish you to come home." "Johnny, dear, I wish I could do both, but 1 can do neither." "Not for me, poppy? Please do—just for me, you know." "Very well; I'll do the first for you." "And you'll come home?" "No: T can'i do that." "Oh, pop, please do!" "There will be time enough to consider that in the future." "No, there won't. Mamma says— But 1 wasn't to tell you." "Tell me what?" "That it'll be too late then." "Oh, it will be too late! In other words, she must dictate just when a reconciliation may take place." "What's that?" "Make it up." "No, that isn't it. I know why, but ] won't tell. Mamma says you're so proud. That's one reason." "I don't understand, Johnny." "Mamma says if I tell you you'll never come home. You must come home without knowing." The father studied the boy's face musingly for a time and at last said: "Well, Johnny, I could never refuse you anything. I'll forgive your mother if or putting me in here, and I'll come home.'' wherever that may be. I suppose it's In a dirty garret. But tell your mother that 1 won't permit her to do the work for the family. I know where I can get $10 a week as porter. It's pretty hard to take such a place after having employed a hundred men myself, but I've learned that what can't be cured must be endured." "Oh, poppy!" The boy threw his arms spasmodically around his father's neck, gave him a quick hug and kiss, jumped down and ran away to announce the success of his mission. It was several days after this before the red tape that held John Decker in prisorh for not paying his wife her alimony was cut and he walked out a free man. The hour was 5 In the afternoon.

Both were captains of the general staff. The general came up to a group of gentlemen, one of whom was one of the brothers. After joining in the conversation he said to the latter: "Just tell me who is that tall officer near the fireplace on the other side. I forget his name." "That's my brother, your excellency." was the answer. A smile stealing over the general's face suggested the idea that he had not obtained the information he .wished. Some time after the general went to another group ot people and there Joined the officer whose name he had inquired. Suddenly the others saw him turning away, with the same smile on his face. Afterward, when they inquired from the young officer what the general had asked him. he replied: "He asked me who that officer was over there." "And what did you say?" "I said that he was my brother?" The general gave up inquiring the name of the two brothefts for that evening. CJTATK or MIOHIQAV.

SHIPPERS ARE NOT ANXIOUS TO PURCHASE AND FARMERS ARE TOO BUSY TO COME Y o TOWN. Last Month Was the Hottest March In Forty Years, According to Observations Taken at Detroit. Reports reaching Lansing say that the price paid for potatoes throughout the state at the present time la the lowest known in many years. The prevailing market price ranges from 8 to i!0 cents and indications are that this will be reduced before the end of the season. Farmers around Lansing are feeding their potatoes to their stock rather than haul them to the local market at the prevailing figure. Thousands of bushels of Ingham county tubers will be sliced up for this purpose. The present price there is 20 cents. Last fall many dealers in the county were offered as high as 75 cents a bushel, but they pitted their product pending a rise in the market. Many bushels of these will be removed from the pits this spring at a great financial loss, by both shrinkage and decay. Shippers are paying 12 cents a bushel for potatoes at Stanton. They are not anxious to buy even at that figure, as they declare that th£ stock is hard to get rid of. Either for a rise in the market or becauBe they are busy with their spring work, the farmers in that section are withhold ing their product. The visible supply in the hands of the growers is far above the normal amount at ..is time of the year, and it is reported that marketable potatoes are being fed in large quantities to live stock. Potatoes at Traverse City are still quoted at ten cents per bushel with buyers not anxious to take them and farmers not eager to sell. Thursday there was only one load brought to the local market, but the farmers are busy with their spring work and will not bother with the tubers at the lowprice. It is estimated that 50,000 bushels of potatoes are stored in local warehouses, the storage charge being five cents a bushel. There are probably 115,000 bushels in the hands of growers, and with but six weeks of the season remaining it is estimated that not over 40 per cent of the crop has been sold, At drawn, ten miles away, the price is X cents. Hackiey Fortune Underestimated. That the immense estate of the late Chaa. H. Hackiey, Muskegon's philanthropist, . was far underestimated when its value was placed at about $1:1,000,000. is shown by the fitlh annual accounting just filed with Pro bate Judge Prescott. During the year the trustees handed over $1,100,000 in legacies to various sources, while the estate's income during that time was nearly $000,000. If the Earnings of the estate continue such as they were last year it will take nearly 20 years to dispose of the immense fortune as the Hackley will directed. Of this amount, ahout $1,250,000 will go to the school^ nearly $2,000,000 to the Erie L. Smith fund, over that sum to Thomas Hume and a like amount to Charles M. Hackiey, Muskegon's blind millionaire, who. however, ran only use the Interest of the money, the principal going to his children. The southern state holdings of timber, the last purchases made by Mr. Hackiey before his death, have already realized several hundred per cent upon the money invested, and the land is hut half dis posed of at the present time. •<•••*•»*•** « iwoflivMN^wvtVRP-^v^^l^eqMPMeeM****** NEWS OF MICHIGAN.

Being Interested in mining operations in Bolivia, he was denounced by Chile as an insurrectionist a n d as a consequence was hiding. At his hotel his attention was attracted by an Englishman and a young woman. Stephens Tescued the young woman from a drunken officer. H e was thanked 1 her. Admiral of the Peruvian navy confronted Stephens, told him that war had been declared between Chile and Peru and offered him the office of captain. He desired that t h a t night the Esmeralda, a Chilean vessel, should be captured. Stephens accepted the* commission. Stephens met a motley crew, to which he was assigned. He gave them final instructions. They boarded the vessel. They successfully captured the vessel supposed to be the Esmeralda, through strategy. Capt. Stephens gave directions for the departure of the> craft. He entered the cabin and discovered the English woman and her maid. Stephens quickly learned the wrong- vessel had been captured. It w u Lord Darlington's private yacht, the lord's wife and maid being aboard. He explained the situation to her ladyship. Then First Mate Tuttle laid bare the plot, saying that the Sea Queen had been taken in order to go to the Antarctic circle. Tuttle explained that on a former vovage he had learned that the Donna Isabel was lost in 1753. Me had found it frozen In a huge case of ice on an island and contained much gold. Stephens consented to be the captain of tiie expedtjlrton. H* told Uady Darlington. Sh* wfta - gteatly alarmed, but expressed "confidence in him, The Sea Queen encOttftMrjMj fc vessel in the fog.

Under Tuttle's guidance the v#s>-<* nel made progress tnward its goal. IV Nova, the mate, told Stephens that he believed Tuttle. now acting as skipper, Insane because of his cpicer actions. Stephens was awakened by crashing of srlasfl. He saw Tuttle In the. j;iip of a spasm of religions lunula and oven-iime him, The sailor upon regaining his senses was taken 111. C H A P T E R X V I . In Whrch I Again Come to Command. Dade awoke me, the gray light of I he Antarctic day streaming in through the porthole. "I pounded on the door twice, sir," he explained, quickly, "hut you was sleopln' so hard I had to come In. Somethln' \s gone wrong in Mr. Tuttle's stateroom, sir." "Wrong! what do you mean?" "Well, sir a gun went off in there just now, an'—" 1 was already upon my feet, pulling on my clothes. "Run up on deck and ask De Nova to come down here at once. Lively now, my lad." The two had already roached the foot of the companion stairs when I came out, and Dade had. evidently made the situation clear to the mind of the Creole. "Have yon been In zare, monsieur?" he asked, anxiously. "No, not yet, but. I fear the worst, and thought it would be better for us to go together. Stand by, Dade, for we may need yon." The ex-whaleman was lying on the floor in a curled-up heap, a revolver resting beside him, perhaps a foot from his hand. The pungent odor of powder was still in the room. We turned him over, revealing a bullet wound just in front of the ear. Beyond all doubt he had shot himself while sitting upon the edge of the bunk, and had tumbled forward, dead before he struck the deck. I glanced toward De Nova, .who stood staring silently down at the dead man, and at Dade, almost yellow with terror, peering cautiously in through the open door. "He is beyond further trouble," 1 •aid, solemnly. "The poor devil. Help me lift him back into his berth." Dade held aloof, hut De Nova took hold with me, and together we straightened out the body, covering it decently with a sheet. Then we passed out into the main cabin "and closed the door. "What sort of weather have we outside, Mr. De Nova?" I questioned, e deavoftng to quell the beating of m> heart, \ r , "Clear an' col', momteur, ze win' nor'weat.'.'r "Then WO are holding our course?" "Oui, ouf/' gesticulating, "but w£t we do nowY'W'at we do now?" "Well, that depends entirely upon you and the crew." I returned, shortly. "Mr. Tuttle is dead, beyond res*]}. 1 fcrt.tf -. am the only competent navigator left on board. For the sake of my own life, a t well as the safety of those women in our care, I propose assuming #smmaa<L Have yo* anything to say?" * The creole stood motionless, grasping the edge of the table, his black eye* still fastened on Tuttle's closed door. "Well, you bad better decide," I went on, stoutly, "and anyway the only thing for us to do is to put this matter, straight before the crew. Keep quiet about what has happened until after breakfast—you, too, Dade—and then have the whole crew piped aft. Go on about your work until then, and keep y w ton*ua* t*ill." 1 sett dew n~on the divan, watchlisg pari* as he bustled about from the table to the pantry, ever casting fur* live glances toward the Bilent stateroom in which the dead man lay. Finally I got up, and, to Dade's horror, re-entered the mate's room, returning with the chart upon which our course had been pricked up until noon of the previous day, and spread it out across my knees. I was still engaged in studying it when Lady Darlington, fully dressed, emerged from her cabin. She touched me before I was even aware of her presence. ' "Is Mr. Tuttle still 111?" she questioned, anxiously, "and have you been on duty all night?" "TbV first officer: is dead," I answered, and made her sit down beside me. "I will tell you all the facts." She listened silently, her breath quickened from excitement, her face colorlesB. 1 dwelt upon the man's mental condition, his ghostly hallucinations, my discovery of hixn In the main cabin, and his, final mad act of " T o H—I Wid That jSort 0' Rot, Mr. Stephens—We're Sailor-Men." self-destruction. The very relating of the tragic story served to clear my own mind and strengthen my resolve. "What—what will this mean to us?" she questioned, her lips trembling. "Will it release us from our bondage? Will it result in abandoning this crazy search after treasure?" "Honestly I do not know, Lady Darlington," I acknowledged with reluctance. "The present attitude of the crew remains to he discovered. Practically we are as helpless as before. My one advantage lies in the fact that I am the only navigator on board. Yet they have power to compel me to do their will, T cannot battle against them alone." "But. you no longer believe in Tuttle's story?" "I never have really believed it. But this is not a question of what 1 believe; it all hangs upon the faith of the men forward." "Rut if they" realize he was insane, surely they must also decide that his treasure ship was likewise a delusion." I shook my head, gravely doubting her conclusion. "I regret to say I possess no such expectation. The average sailor, Lady Darlington, is not given to reasoning; he Is more a creature of impulse. 1 fear we are already too close to our goal to now be turned back by the mate's death. The men will insist on completing the voyage. I intend to have the entire crew piped aft after breakfast, and will talk to them. 1 wish you to go on deck with me at the time, and hear all that is said." I paused, intently watching the expression of her face. "Whatever decision I may be driven to, I hope it will not forfeit me your respect." "Oh, no." "You will retain confidence in me, even if the bow of the Sea Queen continues to point southward?" She lifted her gray eyes to mine in nnshadowed frankness. ' Whatever you ihlnk best, Mr. Stephens, I shall believe to be right," she responded, softly. "Will my trust help you?" "It is the one thing needed. Thus armed I can fight It out." The meal following waa far from cheerful, although the bright sun streemed down through the decs; transom to fall iu golden bars along the table, as our thoughts would constantly t e o w to thai sliest ftgare lylac tft the near-by busk, while our conversation was Israel? about him, and tfeft consequences of his death. Finally, bidding both mistress and maid prepare themselves for an early call to the deck, I went forward to the bridge, relieving De Nova while he descended to the main cabin for hit breakfast The crew had already completed their meal and swarmed out of the forecastle, apparently aware that something was in the wind. I noticed big Bill Anderson circulating among the various groups, talking earnestly, and felt convinced the crew waa endeavoring to-settle upon some united course of action. Brutal and unlearned as he waa, the boatswain waa a thorough sea-lawyer, understanding well how to lnflueuce his mates, and with enough at stake in this game to render him desperate. The second mate joined me. "Call all hands aft, Mr. De Nova," I said, after a glance into his face, "every man Jack of them, except the two at the wheel. I will talk to them from the rail/' I took my position there, with Lady Darlington and Celeste close at hand, butj&omewhat sheltered under the lee of the longboat from the stinging wind. The herd came shuffling aft, and ranged themselves awkwardly enough on the open deck. De Nova cast his eyes over them, counting, then climbed the short ladder and joined me. "All here, monsieur." Then lowered his voice. "Mapes was dead in ze fo'c'stle." "Mapes! Oh, he was the man who fell from the foreyard?" "Oui, an' it all makes ze crew feel scare'." I glanced at the group, and around at the stern vision of sea. Altogether it formed a dismal, disheartening picture— the men, bundled up in their heavy clothing, stamping their feet on the deck, their ragged beards forking k out, their eyes gleaming beneath the peaks of woolen caps drawn low, Ruffling impatiently, and occasionally fcving over to the rail to spit; the yacht, long battered by the seas, stripped of every unnecessary adornment, her hatches battened down, her funnel rusty, her sails close reefed, her forward deck a sheet of glistening ice, the sharp wind whistling through the frozen rigging as she staggered through a cold, gray, wintry sea, straining and groaning in every timber as the gleaming surges struck her quarter and the relentless wheel held her to the course. The whole view photographed itself indelibly upon my mind, and I clung to the rail, gazing about and down into tnose upturned faces below. "Men," I said, finally, shadowing my lips with one hand to keep the words from being blown away, "I am no sea orator, and what I have to say will be short. No doubt you know pretty well already what has happened on board during the night. All I need say is, that Mr. Tuttle is dead; he went crazy and shot himself. Now, the reason I called you aft is this. You are no regular articled crew, on an ordinary voyage between ports. None of you have signed papers, and you have no lawful officers to take charge. It happens I'm the only navigator on board, and so I've called you aft, after talking with Mr. De Nova about it, to get your ideas on what ought to be done. Some of you speak up until we can find out what your notions are." No one among them made any response, the long row of eyes staring dully up at me, the feet shuffling in uneasiness. "Come, Anderson, open up. You've been Bounding the men for an hour past. What's your plan?" Tho boatswain, thus directly singled out from the others, pushed his way to the front, glancing sideways intv the faces of his mates. "Well, we have talked ahout it a bit, Mr. Stephens, but I dunno as we've quite decided," his gruff voice borne to us on the wind. "How far are we from the Islands what Mr. Tuttle told about?" "Nearly 200 miles to the northwest." The big sailor cast his eyes over the side at the sea view, slowly turning the quid in his cheek. ' "An' the wind right. 'Tain't much of a run, sir, after what we've already had gettin' here. I recken you could find that p'int o' sea?" "Yes," I acknowledged, almost reluctantly. "I can find it, unless the ioe shuts us in first. But what's the use in taking such a chance, Anderson? Tuttle was probably just as crasy about that matter as he was over other things. To my mind he never saw any islands where he said he did. Government ships have surveyed all these waters again and again, and the charts show no land anywhere along that latitude. I'm for calling it a poor job, and turning back before we get nipped. Look where we are now; we haven't a mile of .clear water either ?#ie of ua, and a shift of wind will crnsh our sides like an eggshell." The silent men stared gloomily out at that grim expanse of sea. ice and sky. but Anderson only scowled np into my face, slapping his mittened hands together. "To hell wid that sort o' rot. Mr. Stephens," be broke forth, fiercely. "We're i-aBor-men, an' the most of u* have seen ice beiorf. This channel'* wide enough for the hooker, an' what the devil do we want more? Maybe the or man was a bit nutty, but he knew bow to sail ibes* seas, an' he-told a dam' straight .yarn about that Spanish ship, just the same, an' I'm for flndi»'*out whether or not it was a lie, Maynf there a i n t uo pesos awaitln* for us out yonder, but, by God, sir, I want to know It for sure. An' so do my mates. Now, you say we're within 200 miles of flndln' out the troth, an' I'm hanged if I'll consent to go back like a whipped cur without takin' even a squint along that latitude." Hq stamped on the deck, glowering about him like a mad bull, evidently daring the others to contradict. I leaned farther out over the rail. "Is that right, lads? Has Anderson spoken your sentiments? Do you really mean to proceed in this crazy search in spite of all that ice out yonder?" No voice responded, although I could hear the hoarse grumbling in their throats and see their headB shaking affirmatively. I turned toward the mate, who was standing just behind me. "The men are all tongue-tied. How is it with you, Mr. De Nova? Are you for further south, or a quick run home?" I noticed him glance across toward Celeste, crouching beneath the shelter of the longboat, her face showing white against the darker background. I even Imagined the girl lifted her hand as if in some form of signal; anyhow, the Creole smiled confidently, his jet mustaches clearly outlined against his cheek. "Wat I say, monsieur? Oh, oui, I was for get up ze steam in ze engine, and make a dash. By gar, maybe zare was ze monies to make us all rich. W'y not? Wiz ze steam we cheat ze Ice-field. Bah! I seen it worse as zat." "True," I urged in final effort, "but the season is wrong. We are driving south in the face of winter, the icepacks are forming, and not breaking up. I warn every one of you the chances are we'll be nipped." (TO B E CONTINUED.) R E M A I N S A L W A Y S S E A L E D BOOK. Mystery of Mentality Seems Designed to Be Hidden from Mankind. We say of one who has destroyed his life: "He must have been mentally unbalanced." Was he? What is the proof that comes from an action mere ly contrary to the ordinary rule of life? And what is balance? In every walk of life we meet with Hie unbalanced, or the mentally dying. The fanatic is the man with large mental force, but with only one outlet. He looks on the world through a single window, His salvation is to open many windows to Ms soul. The business man struggles with singleness of purpose. The student lives among the fancies of his brain. But extreme application brings the same results as extreme inattention. The rush of urban life and the desolation of the farm produce identical results. In a thousand persons the gradations from the extreme of brute physical domination to the extreme of nervous force are found, and all are susceptible to the unknown law which, without warning, extinguishes the inner light and leaves the afflicted groping in the darkness. Was poverty, ill health or dishonor confronting the hapless one? Did he hate the things that men desire, and was he about to lose them? Did any one of a thousand things impend which try men'scourage and test their powers of resistance and philosophy? And if we cannot find one of these tangible, material things, we shake our heads sagely and leave the ques tion unanswered. Why should it be unanswered? There are things we know and things we may not learn. And among the latter is the mystery of mentality. 1 U n I ' IN HOtTlTAL PO* « I N t MONTHS. London's Erudite Cabmen. The two cabmen authors who had just been brought to light deserve a place beside the erudite driver discovered by Sir Frederick Bridge. This cabman often drove Sir Frederick home from the Albert hall after the performances of the Royal Choral society, and one evening as he received his fare he astonished the eminent conductor by criticising the tempo at which he took some of the "Messiah" choruses on a previous occasion. This started a friendship between the musician and the cabman, and the former discovered in the latter a very solid foundation of musical knowledge and got to think highly of his opinions. On one occasion, indeed, the cabman asked him to perform a new oratorio by Perosi (which Sir Frederick had not. then .-teen) and offered to lend him a copy of the score —London News.

Every year the credulous* and superstitious hasten to buy their publication* and to marvel at the wide range of predictions which they comprise. While the circulation of these almanacs Is more extensive In Great Britain than (n this country, it Is not gratifying to our national pride to learn that 100,000 copies are prepared annually for American consumption. But even at this late day tome of the dupes are "getting wise" and beginning to check up the prophets, comparing promise with performance, says Pittsburg Gazette-Times. Zadlel, Old Moore and other of the prognosticators who make their headquarters in London have been subject to this process, and the result should not be without Its effect on the circulation of their next year's almanacs. The only time the professional prophets made a hit Is after the event The number of inspired persona who predicted the San Francisco earthquake Is beyond computation, but one and all neglected to warn the threatened city until it was too late. If people are going to be so mean as to check up old predictions and see whether they came to pass, It won't be long until the prophet Is with out honor not only In his own country, but everywhere else.

"In presence of death and the -hereafter, madam, prayer Is the natural outlet of the soul." # Her sympathetic face whitened, the Expression of her eyes changing intantly. "What—what do you mean, Mr. Tutle? Are we In any special danger?" "In the midst of life we are- in death. What Is man that- thou art Indful of bim, or the Son of Man ^hat thou vlsitest him?

Ce warned, madam; be prepared for his early coming, for already has it been given unto me to behold the End." He strode past us, stony-faced/ his gaunt form outlined against the gray sky without as he pushed back the companion door. Lady Darlington watched his disappearance with parted lips and eyes tilled with fear. . "The fellow has gone crazy over his spIritlBtlc theories," I endeavored to explain. "Do not permit such folly to affect you." "But—but, Mr. StephenB, he means it, he believes it. What is it he has seen?" "Some vision of his insanity, no doubt—nothing that need worry us who are sane." Her fingers pressed tightly upon myhand. "But if he 1B really insane how much more dangerous it makes our position! Do you really think he is?" "Only along tbat one line, Lady Darlington," my voice growing firm with conviction. "Otherwise he seems as sane as most men. We must humor him to that extent, but regarding all other matters there is no occasion for SSB9R The slight change of voice perceptible in this final .sentence might have excused the utterance o f ' t h e question trembling on ray lips, yet I set my teeth, and remained silent. "It Is odd how our lives are Influenced," she continued, thoughtfully. "I feel that the charm of the sea has been the one great impelling force which has molded mine. 1 wonder is it destined always to be so? Are these waters even now bearing me on as Fate wills? Ever since 1 can remember I have permitted the ocean to take that place in my heart which, perhaps, should be otherwise occupied. It has been my master, my strongest love. But I must not think this, much less say it," hastily awakening, and pointing forward. "See, Mr. Stephens, how those clouds and the waters blend yonder In such fantastic forms; they appear an army of sheeted ghosts bearing down to block our passage into the Polar sea." 1 looked in the direction indicated. scarcely noting the phenomena, but wondering what was the real meaning concealed behind her veiled utterance. In truth Lady Darlington was not a woman easily Interpreted. She was by no means a creature of moods, yet behind her effort at outward cheerfulness I was constantly aware of something hidden, some haunting memory of the past, more to be dreaded even than her present environment. Sometimes I even thought she deliberately played with me; yet this was not so. There was nothing of the coquette in her nature, nothing of purposeful deceit in either words or action, and I caBt the unworthy thought from me with the indignation it deserved. Still, her method was most strange, most peculiar. Indeed, she was Hke two women, ever keeping me on the qui vive, alive with expectancy, yet never quite bringing to me that open-heartedness I so much desired. One second, as though by purest accident, I looked down into her soul; the next I,saw nothing but the outer covering. Without in the least meaning to b# tio she became a teasing puzzle, an enigma of womanhood, before whom I was beginning to worship, un able to analyze even my own feeling. half-hopeful, half-afraid. Hence it was that on this day I remained leaning against the piano, listening to her really brilliant execution of difficult music, gazing down upon her unconscious face, the swing of the deck under my feet, but with a heavy heart behind the smile upon my lips. The music filially ceased, yet we lingered there conversing* over UEiu "Oh, God! There's Another! Another, But I'll Kill That One Too!" you to worry. The man is a magnificent seaman, and handles the Sea Queen with remarkable skill. He will brlug us out safely, and you must not permit his prophecies of disaster to influence your mind—they are only the ravings of a diseased brain." I do not know how much of what I said she actually believed, yet as I talked on in ;"v>'arent confidence her expression gradually changed, and finally I had Celeste bring her wraps, and I escorted her forth upon deck. The fresh, stinging air soon served to drive from her brain the last vestige of terror, although at first she watched Tuttle on the bridge very closely. However, the fellow had left his weird fanoles all below, and his sharp orders, coupled with the able manner in which he sailed the vessel, rapidly brought back even my own evaporated faith. Lady Darlington did not appear again after supper, although Celeste sat In the main cabin and chatted vivaciously with De Nova while he ate. They appeared so deeply engrossed in each other that I finally took my pipe and went on deck, leaving them undisturbed, their laughter echoing to my ears as 1 slid to the companion door. There was a taste of snow in the wintry air—delicate, scattered, whirling flakes that cut the exposed flesh like needles, while the wind whistled through the frozen rigging in shrill music. The decks were as gloomy and dark as the surrounding sea was desolate and gray, the endless vista of ciracling water and sky merely merging imperceptibly into the haze of distance— everywhere the white-capped waves frantically chasing each other, rrflst following crest, the deep hollows i> rween as black as death, i It got upon my nerves at last, and 1 went below, striving manfully to shake off all memory of the depressing picture. Ten minutes later 1 wag securely braced in my bunk, so soundly Bleeping I forgot to dream. I could never tell what awoke me; gome strange noise, no doubt, for I sat straight up, staring through the blackness toward the closed door. Almost at the very instant I heard the smash or glaaaJtaJhAjMbji sabin. i was only partially undressed, and with one spring W M at the latch, the fierce pitching of the yacht making me instantly apprehensive of accident. At the 'first glance I perceived nothing unusual under, the 'dim light, then I saw a man sprawling on the floor in midst of a Utter of glass from a broken mirror. I leaped acroaa toward the fellow, twiaUag my hand into the collar of his pea-jacket, and whirling him face upward to the light. It wag Tuttle, and he shrank away from me cowering like a whipped cur, his hands thrust out, hia eyes staring, it was an appalling face, ghastly, terrorstricken. "What is it. Mr. Tuttle?" "Oh, Chrlat! Christ!" he shrieked, apparently never seeing me at all, hia teeth gnashing, a foam on his lips. "I saw it again—right over there! But I killed that one! I killed that one! It will go back to hell ahead of me! Oh, God! there's another! Another, but I'll kill that one. too!" Straight toward me he came with the fierce, unexpected leap of a wild animal. Half-dazed I grappled him. ft was the contest of man against beast, for he fought clawing and snapping, snarling forth curses. The necessity of saving myself stiffened me to it, and I struck out hastily, landing twice before we came to the grip. It seemed * to me he possessed the strength of a dozen men, yet I got my fingers in his neckband, and we went crashing down together on- the deck. As we struck he went suddenly limp, his fingers shaking, his eyes staring up dully at the light. I held him tfaas in my grip an instant, suspecting some trick; then, as he never moved, I drew him up until his shoulders rested against the support of a chair. "What is it, man?" I questioned, anxiously. "What has happened? Are you sick?" He made no response, gave nut the slightest sign that he even heard me. I poured out a glass of liquor, held it to his lips, and he gulped It down, but seemingly in a stupor. "Come along," I said, sternly, realizing that my will must dominate his, if I would move him to action. "I am going to take you to your berth, and make you He down. You are sick, and need rest. Get up, now." He attempted no resistance as I lifted him, even clinging to the chair for support, his entire body shaking like a jelly fish. I braced him in through the open door, tumbled him over into the bunk, and he lay there, staring straight up with unwinking eyes, his face as yellow as parchment. He was completely dressed lor the deck, his pea-jacket buttoned to the chin, his heavy sea-boots on. I loosened the one, drew off the others, shut the door, and left him there alone. It was clear enough he had again beheld the ghost, but how came he to lie fully dressed, his clothing still wet with the salt spray? Breathing hard from the exertion. I glanced curiously at my watch to note the hour. Barely two o'clock. Whv, it was his trick on deck; he had deserted his position to come below. The Sea Queen was rushing through the gloom with no officer on the bridge. De Nova would be in his bunk asleep. I sprang to my own room, and hastily finished dressing, fully determined on standing out Tuttle's watch on deck. As I came forth again into the main cabin, winding a muffler about my throat, a vision in white fronted mc, grasping the table to keep from falling. "What is it. Mr. Stephens? What has happened?" "Nothing that need in any way alarm you," and as the vessel gave a sickening plunge, and her eyes opened in apprehension, I caught, her arm firmly. "Truly, believe me, there is no danger. Mr. Tuttle has been suddenly taken ill, and I am going to relievo m* •js*Bjpejs>< him on watch. Ton nave confidence In me, have you not?" Her eyes searched my face earnestly, the jray depths full of anxiety. ,4Oh, yes.'* "Then now is the time to show i t I shall remain: on deck, probably, until morning. I wish you to go back, lie down qqd rest. Let me assist you to. return to your stateroom." I held her closely to me, so closely I could feel the throb of her breathing, the warmth of her flesh, realizing that she was cliuging to me in utter forgetfulness. Only at the door did she draw away slightly, yet even then with her hands clasping my arm, her hands clasping my arm, her eyes gazing directly into mine. "You have told me all?" "All of the slightest importance; the details can wait daylight. I ask you to confide in me now, and sleep. May I have your promise?" There was something mystifying in those gray eyes I had never perceived before, and she caught her breath in a quick sob. 'Yes," she replied, simply, her »lashes drooping, "you may have my promise." Ou deck 1 discovered ihe yacht laboring desperately in a heavy cross sea, the sky clear, and two men straining at the wheel. In spite of the starshine, they were so bundled up that I was compelled to stare directly in their faces before I could recognize either. "Mr. Tuttle has been taken sick and pone to his berth," I explained briefly. "1 will serve out his watch. What course have you?" "Sou'-sou'-east by sou', sir." I glanced inquiringly at the compasscard, and then forward, sweeping the seas with my glasses. There was no ice in sight, but tin.- bitter cold of the air was sufficient proof of plenty not far away. -When did Mr. Tuttle go aft?" I asked. " 'Bout MO minutes ago, sir." "Did be leave any word?" "He never said nothin," did he, Bill? He'd bem actin' queer, an' a-talkin* to hisself, an' all at once be ran down the steps, an' went aft.

He came stumbling up the steps, perhaps ten minutes later, still rubbing the sleep out of his eyes, but became wide awake enough when he recognized me. "Sacie. w'at was zis, Mons. Ste- <-p!ipn? Were was ze mate?" Crouching behind the tarpaulins out of the keen sweep of the wind, I explained in rapid detail what, had occurred since he went below. "It will probably have to be watch and watch with us, De Nova," I ended, [Irmly. "Tuttle is no longer fit to be lefl in charge of the deck. You agree to that'.'" He shrugged his shoulders. "Ry gar, it look like zare was nossing else for it." "No; it is the only way. Call me at the end of your trick. I'll look in on Tuttle again as 1 go bolow." I did so, discovering him still upon his back, his eyes wide open, staring straight up at the deck beams above. "Is there anything 1 can do tor you, Mr. Tuttle?" He wet his parched lips with his tongue, iinning his head ever sc slightly at sound of my voice. "Another drink of brandy." he muttered, thickly. "I don't see what is the matter with my legs; they won't move." 1 brought him the liquor, lilting his head so he might drink more easily, and expressing a hope that he would feel much better by morning.

You can't forget, no matter how hard you may try, for your old home, the one you first knew, is so deeply Impressed upon your mind that all the glories, the riches and the blandishments of modern times cannot blot the picture out, and in spite of all you go back to it by the memory route, and linger there often, and more often as the years gather around yon. That is why you like to read of the old days, even though you would not have them return. Do you ever tell your children about your old home, and of your visits to granddAddy's; your tours of exploration through old attics infested with wasp's nests, and hanging with dried herbs, seed corn, sickles and one truck and another?

Not recognizing themselves, they I resolved to take his advice. Months **v* b e e u drawn to it. They hare L t passed while I was trying to find" a subject. Then 1 decided to attempt to paint the face of a good woman. She might be beautiful, but she must be good. Then-I bunted a long while for e> model. I found none. There were conely,models and these were models wjbo were good, but the good was not •tamped upon the features to a degree required. At last I gave up trying to find a model except for the purely physical part of the picture. 1 selected, pne ,who would do very well in this respect and put her face on the canvas. Then I paid her and sent her away. My work now commenced, i should not call it work, for creation Is not work. If it is work it is. worthless. And yet what I did was work. This 1 know, because It was worthless. I painted over my canvas till the paint was too thick to take on more, then transferred the face to another and ^recommenced. Three months passed. J had made several such transfers, and ^•very canvas bad become a daub. .Finally r transferred the face once •pore and, before beginning to put on •what I was attempting, decided to i a k e a rest. I soon began to think that my rest ffco far as that especial picture was 'concerned would never end. It seemed to me that to produce a face typical of the good without a model must neces- Isarily be a failure. ? One day I saw a girl in a trolley car. She sat directly opposite rae. What man Is there who has not seen some woman for the first time and '$aid to himself. "That's the woman I j&Msb for my wife." This 1 said to myself. 1-snt for a long while looking £tt the face, and when the girl at lust Jjot out of the car It was indelibly fixed \x\ my memory. | 1 went to my studio and put It on (Canvas. Before 1 arose from my seat Ipt the ousel my object was accomplished- that is, the expression 1 desired to produce was there. When my picture was finished 1 submitted it to several critical people. They all [jointed out its faults, but if what I had so coveted Was there none of them discovered it. However. I .had sufficient Influence to secure a place for my production In a prominent gallery. It was hung near a famous picture. 1 watched the throngs pass mine seeking for Its great rival. "Where is it?" they all asked referring totheiatter. "There!" They approached It reverently and stood gazing on 1 ft admiringly. | "If this picture is so great why do ( these people need to have It pointed * eat • to them?" I asked. But there may have been envy In my hearty Occasionally one would pause before my picture, but not for long, and I soon gave up hope that It would secure me recognition. While It was hanging in its place I was a frequent visitor to the gallery. I loved to look at it. Was this because it pictured the face that had attracted me or because 1 believed in my heart that after all this neglect 1 had achieved in it an expression of the good? 1 did not know. ; One day while 1 was In the room where it was hanging who should.en-i ter but the girl I had seen in the trolley. . Like the others, she asked that the famous picture be pointed out to ^ i r , . spent some time before it. then glanced at others till her eye lighted on my production. At once she went to it and stood looking at it intently. When she had spent a loug while thus 1 approached, took position beside her ii nd looked up at it myself. "Pardon me." I said to her. "Can you tell me who painted this picture?" "No. I know nothing about art or artists.^ "Do you admire it?" "1 don't know. I would love to he like it." "It seems to mc," I said, looking from the face on the canvas to hers of flesh and blood, "that it is like you." "Do you tnlnk so?" she said. "It (teemed to me that there is something ID the Bhape, the features and ail that resembling me, bat there is something elseM would wish were mine and Is • o f "And that Is.?" *I can't tell-you.

The conditions and conventions of our civilization demand frequent bathing. Any one suspected of avoiding a dally bath would quickly find himself persona non grata in decent society. It is popularly supposed that frequent, bathing is essential to health. This is quite untrue. Much of the benefit attributed to the water is in reality due to the complete exposure of the skin to the air. The respiratory function of the skin is of high importance, and. although water may he dispensed with, closing the pores to air would result in speedy asphyxiation.—New York Medicel Journal.

No matter bow groat may be the care taken in making the mold, a bell has to be tuned before it will rinp a clear, true note. As a matter of fticr, every beil sounds five notes, all of which mast blend together harmoniously. If one is the least bit out the tone will be spoiled. The first of these notes is produced by the vibrations at the mouth of the bell, the second by the vibrations a little higher up, the third still higher up, and so on to the fifth, which is produced quite near the top. As the character '• of the sound which rings depends upon the thickness of the metal, it is possible, by taking thin shavings from 1 various places in the inside of the bell, to niter the five rifctes until they are all in harmony.

"It Is hard for a doctor to snatch a holiday," the housekeeper bald. "You must hurry, sir, or you'll tuias your train." Haste and excitement lent animation to a face- usually wooden 1n expression. Always a pleasure to visit his mother. Dr. Perry joyfully anticipated the present holiday because the girl he was to marry was to be a guest, also. HP was stepping Into the autonsoblle when his housekeeper called him: 1 tbafjnond wants you at the P'fttyctantly he turned back. 4 MC*tf you come to me at once, Jack? I r*§» fa desperate trouble.

"Incredible[ Re was doing •#' we?) fast night" c Gordon waa a friend who had fallen 1H,£t ft hotel and had been moved to the doctor's bouse. Raymond was Jack's best friend. He was greatly beloved and skillful, with one weakness, recurring at long Intervals. "I am In an awful position, Jack," were the doctor's first words. "I know you will help me. I dare not ask anyone else." , WIO> ft gesture that told everything, he pointed at two vials. "Th* wroo»4»«—! fear 1>e done ion him!" One gtamce showed Jack that the alcoholic craving had returned, hence the mistake. As they talked they heared the sickroom. "You • ma,y rely on me. certainly. Rdyrfond;" " "Thank you.

Now they despaired; again they were rewarded by hope. At a critical moment Dr. Raymond collapsed. Again the work went on. At midnight a servant handed Jack a telegram, ^Acute anguish convulsed his countenance as he read: r£|flother dangerously 111. Wants you. Dr. Montgomery witfe her. "ELINOR." His precious mother dying, needing him, and he pledged to help a stranger! it was terrible, if he could but wake Raymond. Going to the bed he shook him, only to see him doze again under the influence of the narcotic. "God help me! I've burned my ships," Jack groaned. "Oh! Mother, mother! 1 gave my word! You would bid me keep It." He sent a message: "impossible to leave till morning Critical case. Love to mother. Ask Montgomery to stay. JACK." An hour later came a telegram from his fiancee: "Come at once. Mother worse. "AGNES." ' Great beads stood on the son's forehead as he ministered to the stranger. Suddenly he responded to the treatment. In the library of the homestead Agnes Armltage paced, paused at the French window to peer into the night, longing for the rumble of wheels bringing her fiance. "Elinor!" she raved. "This la cruel! 1 will never forgive him—never! To refuse to come to his dying mother! A 'critical case' indeed! Any one could attend to a stranger. There is absolutely no excuse for him." The girls went again to the mother's room. No one needed Agnes. She returned to the library, woefully disappointed in the man she loved. Cruel, she deemed him. In their brief engagement there had been one flaw- Jealousy—not personal but of his work, of the absorption, the power of concentration that excluded her. Foolish little womanl Had she but known life better the would have rejoiced that a great ambftkm possessed him. Ateve. the stricken mother lay. sinking. Always her eyes watched the door. "Th* last train will bring him. moth •r,M Elinor said, softly. "Talts this," Dr. Montgomery coaxed "It will give you strength to see Jjick." With an effort she took the medicine sift ftad refused before, it stimulated the falling heart through the casement. Birds twittered. The melancholy that comes after a night'u watching gripped the hearts of the nurses. Elinor feared that the grayneas was creeping over her mother's face. At the window she listened. Ah! Wheels on the gravel! "Mother!" she cried in agony. "Wait tor Jack! He's coming!" A step on the stair, and Jack had come! "Mother! Little mother!" On his knees, he kissed- the dear hands, the wrinkled cheeks. Ineffable Joy lighted the line old race. "I was clipping into the dark, laddie. I waited for you," she murmured, faintly. "I'll stay now, please God." Then Jack took possession of the room, sending doctor and nurse to rest. Aloue with his mother, he stroked her hands. Contented, she slept. For hours netiher stirred. With a wealth of love and gratitude her son watched. When the nurse relieved him he thought of Agnes, resting un der the home roof. He found tin* family at breakfast. Agnes was silent. Dr. Montgomery talked of the patient Elinor asked no questions. The old doctor, quick to read faces, saw trotfhle ahead. Agnes left the room. A maid let a door bang. Both men started nervously Those who had bee.n calm In a great crisis were unnerved. Jack followed Agnes to the library. Jt would be soothing to rest on her sympathy. "Dearest." he said softly, laying a caressing band on the bright brown hair. "Why did you not come. Jack? What patient in the wide world kept you from your motfier?" There was Fcorn in the tone—reproach and sadness. He who had been strong was weak before her. "It was life—or death." he answered. "And your n^othpr hovered between life snd death! Who was she pre ferred to a mother?'*^ . The doubt stung. .; "1 dq not discuss my patients, Agnes." Yet. had she trusted, something mipht h;ive been .said without disloyalty fo Dr. Raymond. 'S'he moment passed. She doubted. Both were overwrought. It was not the moment for argument. So, with tempers tried, words were spoken to be bitterly regretted. "Take back your ring, Jack. You are free." The sweetness of summer came In, but it brought no soothing. Through Jack's set lips no reassurance came. Stern, severe, as youth can be, Agnes refused forgiveness. "Then it's good-by, dear? But—I wish you could have trusted me—unproved." Kissing her forehead, he went out by the window, to disappear beyond the graperies. When he returned he did not see her. Again he became nr.rse. When next he came downstairs Elinor told him that Agnes had gene. A month later Elinor motored with her brother to the golf club. Alone on a corner of the veranda she looked up to sec Dr. Raymond. His face was beautiful. A new light Illuminated it. To himself and his friend he had kept, the vow registered on that fateful night. Henceforth he was "master of his soul." Elinor had always been his ideal. Hitherto he had felt that he had no right to seek her. To-day he sank gladly into the seat beside her. Jack was on the lawn with a group of golfers. Dr. Raymond eyed him keenly. "What's wrong with Jack, Elinor? He's gone to a shadow." Instinctively the girl knew sha might ipeftX. "You know h* and Agnes hart broken ihelr engagement-" "Impoaalble! They were mad* for each other. Surely It li a passim cloud." "It's p v t mending. I'm afraid. But if anyone can b e l p u a I believe you can. Mother and,i tMnk It hinges on some question of pvotesslonal eUica— somebody's secret that puts him in a wrong light" Then she told him of her mother's sudden illness—their night of suspense— and the outcome. Dr. Raymond listened silently. The voice that said: 'Thank you. Elinor." was husky. With a gesture habitual to him when touched deeply, he covered his eyes with his left hand. As Elinor spoke Dr. Raymond sprang to his feet "Wait for me here, please." Quickly he crossed the lawn to Agnes. Plunging Into the story, he began: "Agnes, 1 am going to confess and throw myself on your mercy. We were boy and girl together. You know my fault You were brave enough and kind enough to lecture me because of it. God helping me, it is overcome at last, thanks to your Jack." "Not my Jack, it's all over." "It's not over, Agnes. Listen!" Again he told the story. "He would keep his plighted word Agnes. He would not see me dishonored, my career spoiled. Now, child, tell the world. Clear him. Strong enough to sacrifice r~otaer, wife, happiness, for friendship and honor. Be proud. Agnes, proud and glad." "How can I look him in the face again?" the girl cried, sadly. "I failed him. I doubted. Lately I have known it, but I was too proud to call him back. Tell the "world! Never! He would not permit such treachery." "Ah! Here they come." Elinor and Jack crossed the smooth green turf and stood before them. Dr Raymond sprang to his feet. Grasping the hand of his friend he wrung It hard. "Confessions are in order, Jack. Let Agnes do her share. Come, Elinor." Drawing her to a quiet nook he pleaded for her love. But what he said or what she answered has noth ing to do with the story. Guns That Won't Shoot Loose. The old muzzle-loaders had one advantage, that the builder of the breechloaders has worked faithfully to overcome. The muzzle charged pieces had a breechpin, which was screwed In, where it probably rusted and remained forever—no getting loose there. But the breech-loader had to tip up to receive the shells, and the problem of the gun builder was to construct the arm so that it could be opened and closed thousands of times without becoming loose. Making a Joint where two pieces of steel must grind together a hundred thousand times without wearing looked to be almost as much an Impossibility as inventing a perpetual motion machine, but we might say that modern Ingenuity has succeeded, and guns are now on the market that are guaranteed never to shoot loose.—Recreation. njuriouaneas of Sugar. For three reasons, according to Dr. Patchen, is sugar Injurious. First, because it is used very often to render palatable articles which by reason of age and decay have become unfit for proper nourishment. Second, because It interferes with the digestion and assimilation of other kinds of food. Third, because of Its seductive palatability it causes food to be eaten after the physiological limit, of supply and demanu has been reached. Taking a Chance on Him.

The North Magnetic Pole T r u s t w o r t h y Observations Have - Proved T h a t It Has No Stationary Situation. Only the experts understand that the north pole and the north magnetic pole are two entirely differentthings. As a matter of fact, there are few localities on the earth's surface where the compass points due north The reason is because the north magnetic pole or area lies in the vicinity of King William's Land, just off the Arctic coast, of North America in Bothia. When this magnetic pole is between us and the north pole the compass points due north. As we go either east or west from this line it is easy to see tnat the compas* is off to a certain degree. If we were to travel north of the magnetic pole the needle "If we can carry her over the hour j would point south, west of it the nee when vitality is lowest I will have ' dip would point enst.

Roald Amundsen In the ship Ojoa set out on a three years' expedition, relocated the magnetic pole and made the "Northwest passage" for which mariners have striven since the days of Henry Hudson. Terrestrial magnetic force is different In every part of the earth's surface and is not always the same at a given point. It is subject to reguftur daily and yearly changes. Amundsen posted himself near the seat of the magnetic power and* for 19 -lonths, day and night, with his part/, took readings of their instruments, both Inclination and declination. He also made short excursion* into the region of the magnetic pole and was able by the aid of the declination observations to prove that the magnetic north pole does not have a stationary situ ation but is continually moving.

The basket can be fastened. If so desired, so that it will not fall off, but ordinarily this is not necessary. Such a device will bold nearly three times as much an an ordinary wheelbarrow, and will be welcomed by gardeners. The basket Itself Is light, and when filled with grass that has just been cut or dried leaves makes a load not nearly so heavy as a load of dirt, yet saves many trips that are otherwise required to remove the litter from the lawn, FRESH AND ROTTED MANURES Careful Study of the Effects of Both W i l l Determine Which la Best to Be Used. (By H. H. B H E P A R D . ) There seems to be a difference of opinion as to the value and use of ffesh and well-rotted manure. Almost all authors on gardening recom- ^^"^JUjena^the use of "well-rotted" manure for all plants. ' That well-rotted manure is the .safest slBV best for Immediate results in general farm and garden practice is It ^huitted. * / ! • . • &&t large quantities of this fertilizer Furnace Sets Over Stump. the stump. The furnace may be turned with the wind, if necessary, to give the Are a strong, steady draft. This contrivance will burn out large stumps in a remarkably short time, leaving nothing but deeply buried roots, and sometimes the flames will burn these out a great depth. GOOD TOP FOR WHEELBARROW • » . ' — Particularly Useful in Collecting Grass and Dried Leaves from Suburban Lawns. There are many ways In which the wheelbarrow top shown in the illustratlon- wlll be useful, but particularly in collecting cut grass and dried leaves from suburban lawns. The den^ iujfe IB'plentiful and may be sefpfo4 at iir'tlmes. Beside, manure which has' rotted in heaps, unless properly handled, has lost a large share of its best fertilizing properties. The greatest objection to the use of fresh manure for immediate plant growth Is that it burns the crop unless the growing season Is very wet. This, too, will be admitted is the usual case, yet the bad effects from the use of fresh manure arise from Improper methods of applying the manure and the working of the soil after the application. Fresh manure may or may not heat in the soil and injure plants according to the way it Is worked In the soil. Fresh manure of course undergoes decomposition and produces heat in the process and the more of it there is In one place the more heat there will be given off. Then to overcome the bad effects of the heat to growing plants fresh manure should be well scattered and well mixed with the Boil so that no large amount will remain in any one place. The soil should be deeply harrowed and disked, or both, so that all the manure is thoroughly incorporated with the soil particles, leaving a uniform mixture. Then the decomposition will be slow, hence a less amount of heat evolved. Good Cow Pasture. No western farmer on good land capable of growing 60 to 80 bushels of corn to the acre, according to the season, should be satisfied if when ft is in pasture it does not keep a cow tti the acre from the flrgt of May to the first o* November. USEFUL DEVICE IN AN APIARY Where Extensive Feeding ts Necessary, Box thown In Illustration Becomes Useful. When extensive feeding becomes necessary in the apiary the device shown herewith will be found very at the back and three-quArter inch at each side than the super's inside measurements, and the front should be partly cut away, as shown. In UBe the super may be set below the brood chamber with, say, 20 or 25 pounds of syrup in the feeder, says Orange Judd Farmer.

The general sympathetic strike of 150,000 union workers in aid of the Philadelphia street car men has begun to collapse and It is believed that before another week starts all these engaged la It will have returned to work. As the settlement of the street ear trouble continues to be delayed the union leaders are finding it harder and harder to keep their followers in line. The textile workers in Kensington who, together with the members of the allied building trades, formed the backbone of the general strike, resumed work Wednesday. The textile unions represent 36,000 persons. The resolutions calling upon members to return to work stated that thetextile workers had stood loyally together since the beginning of the sympathetic strike and had made all .the sacrifices necessary or that could pt expected of them. The textile workers pledged the car men their moral and financial support and agreed to refrain from patronizing the trolley cars until the strike has ended. The breaking up of the general strike is a disappointment to the striking car men, who believed the sympathetic strikers should have stood out longer, especially at this time, when the Rapid Transit Co. was showing a willingness to treat with the men.. It Is generally agreed among labor leaders and others that the general Strike to aid the car men was not a successful movement. Lords Give Up Ancient Right. By a vote of 175 to 17 the house of lords passed the resolution of Lord Rosebery calling for reform with the object of staving off the drastic steps meditated by the Asquith government. The. resolution declared that a necessary preliminary to the reform and reconstitutlon of the house Is the acceptance of the principle that the possession of a peerage should no longer of itself give the right to sit and vote in the house of lords. The adoption of this principle by the lords is one of the most important steps in the political history of the world and will, according to Lor* Rosebery, prevent a revolution similar to that which took plsce in France when the aristocrats refused to relinquish ancient privileges which oppressed the people. Gen. J. F. Bell Badly Hurt. Maj.-Gen. J. Franklin Bell, chief of staff of the army, was badly but probably not dangerously injured and Mrs. Herbert J. Slocura, wife of Maj.

Chauffeur Ward was uninjured. NEWS TOLD IN BRIEF. Gov. Willson has signed the bill providing for electrocution as the means of inflicting the death pentlay.

We guarantee they are genuine and honest statements of facts. Cresson, Pa.—" Five years ago I had a bad fall, and hurt myself inwardly. I was under a doctor's care for nine weeks* and when I stopped I prew worse again. I sent for a bottle of Lydia £ .

Baird, Wash. —" A year agro I was sick with kidney and bladder troubles and female weakness. The doctors gave me up. All they could do was to just let me go as easily as possible. I was advised by friends to take Lydia E. Pinkham*» Vegetable Compound and Blood Purifier. I am completely cured of my ills, and I a m nearly sixty years old."—Mrs. Sarah Leighton, Baird, Wash. Evidence like the above is_ abundant showing that the derangements of the female organism which breed all kinds of miserable feelings and which ordinary practice does not cure, are the very disorders that give way to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Women who are afflicted with similar troubles, after reading two such letters as the above, should be encouraged to try this wonderfully helpful remedy.

J5SS A MAIL BOX AT T H E DOOR. One of the suggestions of the poetmaster general for economizing in hla department 1B that the people put up little boxeH or other receptacle* at their front doors, so that the postman will not have to btund and wait until Homebody an»weru ihe bell. A great deal of time is wasted by the postman having to wait. It is in the interest of an efficient and economic service to provide these little conveniences. And then they are not only conveniences for the postman; they are also for the people of the house. "There is the mail man," says the housekeeper, with her hands in the dishwater or mixing the dough for the family bread—"run, Johnny, to the door," and Johnny is down In the back yard trying to lasso a black cat, but by this time the mail man, thinking no one Is at home, goes off with the expected letter from Mary, who is visiting over in Chicago,, and BO the family is deprived of the pleasure for several hours, simply for the lack of a neat little letter-box at the front door. The report of the geological survey shows the remarkable growth In the production of natural gas in the United States, the output having risen from ¢215.000 in 1882 to $54,640,000 in 1908, or 254 times the value 28 years ago. This is a tremendous increase. But the question will be suggested to many minds whether such enormous consumption of natural gas will not soon exhaust the supply. In fact, in one or two localities there have been complaints that during the cold waves of the present winter the natural gas has proved an uncertain reliance for heating purposes, sometimes falling when most needed. A little conservation and more effective regulation might be in order. The marvelous power of recupera tion possessed by the French is al ready beginning to Bhow the rehabilitation of Paris is beginning. Notwith standing the damage has monuted in the multimillions, the people are not discouraged by the vast task before them, but have attacked the problem of restoration without delay and in a Bpirit of courage, which, indeed, U characteristic of the age, and, in connection with the Gallic buoyancy ol temperament, may confidently be expected to work miracles. Dr. PearBons, the Chicago millionaire who has been giving so much money to small colleges throughout the country, says that on April 14 he is going to have a general squaring up with all the institutions to which he has promised money and that he is going on a rampage of giving that will end only when his millions are all gone. "I intend to die penniless," he Bays, and he really acta as though he meant it. The London post office, which It closed from Saturday night to Monday morning, now announces that It will deliver letters on Sunday by telephone. Only, you see, you must write your letter and post it before the post office can telephone it. It isn't at all strange that people are saying it will be much easier to do their own telephoning. A woman IK Los Angeles agreed to a divorce for her husband in consideration of a locket and a fur coat. Even the husband's joy at being free must have been somewhat dampened by this slight value placed upon his affections. This whole meat problem might be quickly solved if a lot of the people who are complaining at the high prices would quit trying to live in the cities and betake themselves to the luxuries of farm life. Stories of tile large sums received RR lips by New York waiters may yet bring numerous applications for places in restaurants from people who are willing to be haughtily condescending for less money. A New York organization of wealthy women are seeing that horses are shod free in the slippery weather. Considering the price of leather, It would be well to be a horse. THERE'S MILLIONS IN RUNNING I T E R T H E W A T E R POWER MERGER 18 LIABLE TO Q U I T E A HOLD-UP FOR INVENTORY. T H E RAILROAD COMMISSION MUST HAVE MORE INFORMATION BEFORE ACTING. Tho Value of the properties Is Not Given and Delay May Void Contracts. According to members of the state railroad commission, representatives of the proposed Consumers' Power Co. have declared to them that the plans for the merger of 10 water power plants in .this state into a corporation with J35.000.000 in bonds and 120,000,000 in stock may not be consummated because the commission requires information relative to the value of the properties which the merger people claim they cannot furnish in time for the commission to pass upon the proposed stock and bond issue before the first of April, when the contracts expire covering the amalgamation of the companies. Chairman Glasgow, of the commission, said that he had been informed that a conference will be held in New York which may determine the fate of the proposition. The clash came over the question as to a showing of the value of the properties to be taken into the combine. The promoters testified that no inventory of the plants had ever been made, but that the three interests owning the plants had agreed to put in their properties and each take a third interest in the new corporation. The commission and Attorney- General Hird insisted on an inventory, and an effort was made to secure Prof. Cooley to make the inventory for the state. He said that he could not inspect the plants within the time required. Then the promoters are said to have asked that the issue of $10,000,- 000 of preferred stock and $35,000,000 in bonds be approved and the issue of $10,000,000 common stock be held up pending an Inspection of the plants. This the commission refused. Chairman Glasgow say*, and announced that the required information must be secured before any move will be made by the commission. "This Is an important matter to the entire state, and we cannot proceed unless we have complete information. We are not, to blame if the promoters have not timed their contract correctly to meet the exigencies of the situation," said the chairman. Shot by a Posse. Reports of the shooting of Leon D Latschaw, of Custer, Mich., by a sheriff's posse in Defulah Springs, Pla., March 7, while resisting officers, are verified. Latschaw, aged about 80, followed the family of his employer, Frank Herrick, fruit grower, pf Ludington, to Florida, where the Herricks are spending the winter. Latschaw attempted to force his attentions upon Herrick's youngest daughter. He had often threatened the family and was seen prowling about at night until the protection of the police was solicited. He was regarded as of unsound mind by the police of Frankfort, Ind., where he was arrested 6ome time ago on a charge of criminal assault. .Latschaw formerly owned a farm 10 miles from Ludington, but disposed of his interests and last summer worked for Herrick for a short time, until unbecoming conduct towards Herrick's eldest daughter caused his discharge. Joy Miller Located. Joy Miller, Michigan football player, who disappeared shortly after charges were made against him by the university faculty in regard to his studies, has been heard from. He is working for a fruit, company in Walla Walla, Wash., and was found by an official who had heard of hia disappearance. His father, James G. Miller, of Detroit, has received a disjointed letter from the boy, which the father feels bears evidence of the mental troubles from which Joy has been suffering. Mr. Miller plans to leave shortly to meet him in the went. The "Wets'' Won. The first trial of strength between the "wets" and the "drys" in upper peninsula counties that are going to pass on the saloon question April i resulted in a victory for the "wets." At. Munising, Emil Weisae, heading the "wet" ticket, was elected mayor over M. A. Doty, "dry," by a vote of 378 to 194. The "drys" were outvoted two to one in a vote of 573. Another advance in the price of golf balls is announced, but we are glad to be able to assure the public that no I immediate increase in the cost of croguet mallets la threatened. Mildred Mauls-bury, 8 years old of Caro, while returning to her home with her parents, was sitting beRide her father's horse when the animal kicked backwards, killing the child. "If the additional ao valorem duty of nearly $f> a ton is imposed on lumber, it will cost the Importers $500,000 to get into the country the 100,000,000 feet now piled on the docks of Georgian Bay."

H E QAVC PROCEEDINGS A CLEV ER T U R N W H I C H A M O U N T 8 TO A VOTE OF CONFIDENCE. 8eenee of the^Wlldest Disorder But Uncle Joe Stood Erect and Defiant. Joseph Gurney Cannon, of Dann vlUe, 111., is still speaker of the house of representatives. But he lost th« ancient prestige and weapon of that office when the allied republican insurgents and democrats on Saturday took from him not only the chairmanship of, but even membership in the all-powerful committee on rules, the chief asset in his stock of power. Joseph Q. Cannon. Amid scenes of wildest disorder, for the like of which one must go back to the exciting days juBt prior to the civil war—perhaps even those times might not duplicate it— the veteran speaker, almoot 74 years old, stood erect and defiant, his head 'bloodied but unbowed." And at the end, when a big Texan democrat accepted the speaker's daring challenge and Introduced a resolution to fling him out of the speakership, the republicans, regulars and insurgent*, with few exceptions, rallied with almost unbroken party front and gave him a vote which almost offset the "repudiation of Cannonism." Speaker Cannon went down to defeat but when his enemies believed him to be in utter rout, he turned and forced from them what practically amounts to a vote of confidence. It was the last play of a veteran fighter and of a parliamentarian whose hand has been trained by years of practical experience. The speaker was forced from the rules committee by a vote of 191 to 155, 40 Republican Insurgents siding with the solid Democratic vote. The trick that the speaker turned on his enemies was in the form of a resolution presented by Rep. Burleson, of Texas, a Democrat, declaring the speaker's chair vacant, and ordering an election of Mr. Cannon's successor. The speaker already had announced from the chair, amid an impressive silence, that he would entertain such a motion. It was promptly voted down by 191 to 155 amid a scene that is probably without a parallel in the history of the house of representatives. Only nine insurgents sided with the Democrats in voting to depose Uncle Joe from the post that he has held for seven years. As a matter of fact, the proposition to oust him from the speakership waa rejected by a major- ~1fy t>f 36, which is 10 more than the majority that the speaker had when he was first, elected to the office. The speaker declined after the adjournment, to comment upon the extraordinary events of the day. Hf was in his office surrounded by three or four loyal friends when a newspaper man approached him and asked what he had to say about hla "victory." "Oh, nothing at. all, T guess. There is not. any comment for me to make. Besides, you will have your papers full in the morning anyway and you don't need any comment, from me." "But hasn't the newly-elected speaker any announcement to make of hia future policy?" He laughingly answered: "I'll Just keep on, speaking and praying," he said. $3.50 RECIPE CURES WEAK KIDNEYS, f R E £ , , ^ •*• ' .» *••• • \%j} .*.-.* jm* ,' R E U E V E * * t m i N A R Y A N D K I D N E Y T R O U B L E S , B A C K A j C H % S T R A I N I N G , S W E L L I N G , ftt*. , Stops Pain In the ikieoder, iiieUmye and Back.

Record for Strangeness. A Niagara Falls man tells this story: "A Buffalo man brought a relative from Scotland here to see our grand spectacle. The two gazed at the fall in silence a long time. Then the Buffalo man heaved a sigh and said: " 'Ah, Cousin Donald, did you ever see anything so beautiful and strange?' "The Scotchman, after a moment's thought, answered calmly: " 'Weel, for bonnie, yon's a rlcht; but for Btrange, no—fur I once saw In the Town o' PeebleB a peacock wit* a wooden leg.'" "How Sharper Than 8erpent's Tooth." An irritable old farmer and his ungainly, slouching Bon were busy grubbing sprouts one hot, sultry day, when the old man suddenly stumbled over a small stump. "Gosh durn that everlasting stump!" he exclaimed. "I wish It was in hell!" The son slowly straightened up from his work and gazed reproachfully at his father. "Why, you oughtn't to say that, pap," he drawled. "You might stumble over that stump ag'in some day."— Everybody's. Determining Sex. Mark Twain says that he has always taken woman's part. "For instance," he relates, "I once strongly reprimanded a woman out in Hannibal, Mo. Here was the occasion: " So this is a little girl, eh?' I said to her as she displayed her children to me. 'And this sturdy little urchin in the bib belongs, I suppose, to the contrary sex?' " Yassah,' the woman replied. 'Yassah, dat's a girl, too.'"—Everybody's Magazine. Two Points of View.

A L I T T L E T H I N G Changes the Home Feeling. Coffee biota out the sunshine from many a home by making the mother, or some other member of the household, dyspeptic, nervous and irritable. There are thousands of cases where the proof Is absolutely undeniable. Here is one. A Wis. mother writes: "1 was taught to drink coffee at an early age, and also at an early age'became a victim to headaches, and as I grew to womanhood these headaches became a part, of me, as I was scarcely ever free from them. "About' five years ago a friend urged me to try Postum. 1 made the trial and the result was so satisfactory that we have used it ever since. "My husband and Httle daughter were subject to biliouB attacks, but they have both been entirely free from them since we began using Postum instead of coffee. I no longer have headaches and my health is perfect." If some of these tired, nervous, irritable women would only leave off coffee absolutely and try Postum they would find a wonderful change in their life. It would then be filled with sunshine and happiness rather than weariness and discontent. And think what an effect it would have on the family, for the mood of the mother IB largely responsible for the temper of the children. Read "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs. "There's a Reason."

SYNOPSIS. .•The story opens with the Introduction « John Stephens, adventurer, a Massachusetts man marooned by authorities at Valparaiso, Chile. Being Interested in mining1 operations In Bolivia, he was denounced by Chile as an insurrectionist and as a consequence WHH hiding;- At his hotel his attention was attracted by an Englishman and a young woman. Stephens rescued the young woman from a drunken officer. Hf was thanked by her. Admiral of the Peruvian navy confronted Stephens, told him that war had been declared between Chile and Peru and offered him the office of captain. He desired that that night the Esmeralda, a Chilean vessel, should be captured. Stephens accepted the commission. Stephens met a motley crew, to which he was assigned. He gave them final Instructions. They boarded the vessel. They successfully captured the vessel supposed to be the Esmeralda, through strategy. Capt. Stephens gave directions for the departure of the craft. He entered the cabin and discovered the English woman and her maid. Stephens quickly learned the wrong vessel had been captured. It was Lord Darlington's private yacht, the lord's wife and maid being aboard. He explained the situation to her ladyship. Then First Mate Tuttle laid hare the plot, saying that the Sea Queen had been taken In order to go to the Antarctic circle, Tuttle explained that on a former Voyage he had learned that the Donna Isabel was lost in 1753 He had found It frozen in a huge case of ice on an island and contained much gold. Stephens consented to be the captain of the expedition. He told Lady narllngton. She was greatly alarmed. but expressed confidence in Him. The Bea QUeen encountered a vessel in the fog. Stephens attempted to communicate. This rftlised a'fierce si niggle and he was overcome, Tuttle finally squaring the situation. Then the Sen Queen headed south again. .Under Tuttle's guidance the vessel made progress toward its goal. CHAPTER XlV.—Continued. "I would like to have talk wlz you, Mons. Stephens," he said, quite respectfully, swaying to the wild leaps of the vessel. "Maybe if we go to ze lee of ze cabin here we'll be out of ze win'." I followed him in silence, wondering what could he coming now, yet ready enough to take "advantage of any opportunity which might present itself. De Nova braced his back against the rail, his cap drawn so low that I could perceive little of his face but the glitter of black eyes, "We're a little bit bozzered w'at to do, Anderson an' me," he began, evidently ill at ease and scarcely knowing how to express himself, "an* so we talk it ovaire, an' decide maybe we bettah speak wiz you about, it now, before ze mattairc get mor' bad, or ze men forward catch on to ze facts an' get ugly. Maybe it come out all right, maybe not, hut, by gar, it ain't no nice job to go sail 'bout zese seas under a madman—sacre, n o n ! " "A madman!" T echoed in amazement. "Do you mean Tuttle?" He nodded gravely, his expression devoid of all merriment. " T l s ze way it was. We not know sure w'czzer you see it zat way or no, but, damme, Mons. Stephens, if ze fellow ain't mad aa ze March hare. He WRS ze fine sailor all right—oui, zat was true—nobody get more out of ze Sea Queen zan he get. Sacre! he drive ze sheep hard; it make my hair white ze way he hoi' on. Maybe I not be 'frald to take ze chance of ze voyage if it just he all men on board. I not care zen, for I risk my life wiz ze ozzers. But, monsieur, 1 keep myself to sink of ze ladies down below, an' how zat fellow was getlin' more crazy all ze time, Sacre! ft makes me OT&zy, too. Zere's no knowin' w'at he w'en he zat way; he take spells w'en maybe he murder. T hear him mutter it; I see it in ze man's eye. He was much afraid of you, monsieur, an' zat is ze time w o n such fellows get.— w'at you call it?—ze dangaire." I stared into the mate's face, barely able to comprehend this quick justification of my forebodings, brought so closely home. Tuttle was odd enough to be sure, eccentric in both word and action, cracked undoubtedly in matters of spiritism, but that he was a really dangerous lunatic had n e w . once entered my head. I shivered at sudden realization of the peril we wore in, but remained only partially convinced. "What reason have you to think the man as bad aa all t h a t ? " - ^ "Well, monsieur, I watch him for long time; Hill, he watch him, for we Dot like ze way he act since we first sail. Maybe he be luny before zen, but he get worse on ze voyace. Bill aa' me, we talk it all ovaire, an' m mate not tell ze t a m e story t a way b e did in Valparaiso. He forget some, be jwki OKK*' By gar, I lose muob a y 'faith |n it. If zat ship show up, or ze island, eltber, I be mighty surprise'. Oui, out! Ze man Tuttle, be crazy ail right; we know zat for sure. Do be not talk wiz you, monsieur?" "No, not lately; Indeed, he has scarcely spoken to m e since our trouble." _ "Zat was it; zat was w'y you not notice. Well, he talk much—w'at you call ze blue streak—to Bill an' me. Sainte Anne, how be talk! He have new talk every day, an' ze notions be speak make a dog sick, by gar!, Listen ; I tell some sings. I was on watch, w'ejx be comes up from ze cabin; he not half dress, but it cold as bell," De Nova shivered; "yet he walk back an' forth, back an' forth, across zare in front of ze cabin, like ze lion in ze cage, talking wlz himself, an' wringing his bands. Maybe he keep it up two hour, an' I sink he freeze. Ze cook's cat was 'sleep in ze longboat. 1 watch w'ile he come up an' see ze poor devil. Quick he grab her by ze tall an' fling it way overboard, like zat. I hear ze cat yell, an' zen go splash. Zat seem to make him feel bettaire, for h e laugh, an' zen go below." The mate changed his position, and I noticed his eyes looked sleepless and tired. "Las' night he take another turn. He dog you all ovaire ze deck, monsieur, like he haunt you maybe. I was on ze bridge so I not see very much, but Bill, he tell me how it was. He "Tuttlg Sneak Up Behin' You, Like He Would Hit You in Ze Back." say Tuttle sneak up behin' you twice, like \w would hit you in ze back. Once, w'en yon was right by ze rail, Hill, be sung out to you, so as io make you look 'round. Maybe you will remember zat. monsieur?" ' I nodded, beginning now to grasp the full gravity of these revelations. "Hill bo not got mooch use for you, Mons. Stephens," the speaker went on, "an' won't have w'ile but be was no dam wVt it mean if you smiling grimly, bis head ache, fool. He knowwas knock' out. By gar, it be hell! If Tuttle was off his nut, you was ze only navigator ( n ze ship, an' it. not. do for us lose bese. Zat was w'y Bill he care; he not. want to die in zis sea; by gar, non! Well, after w'ile you go below, an' zen ze first officer did ze damnedest sing ever I saw on ze ship. He busted into ze fo'c'stle, monsieur, wizout any in ; * from any man Jack o' 'em, an' plumped down on his knees by Snyder's bunk, an' begun Io pray. Mon Dion, [ vonder zey not murder him. Larsen come out, an' beg Bill an' me to take him out, but he pray all zo time till we dump him in his own cabin. He not fight, he jus' pray, Sainte Marie! it. make me sick; a n ' ze men zey talk, an' ask question." He paused, passing one hand across his eyes. "But zat. not. ze worst, monsieur— sacre, non! he see ze ghost," "De Nova," I said, quietly, "you have said 1 was an educated man. Well I have some reason to believe you are, also, and first, of all I should like to know why you pretend otherwise? Why do you endeavor to talk like a fo'c'stle hand?" He hung in the wind, surprised both by my direct question and the sudden change of topic. Then the old smile came hack to his lips. "Maybe it was habit, monsieur, from 12 year' passed in zat sort of company." "I was correct then in believing you have received more than an ordinary education?" "I took zo classical course in ze college at Martinique, an' zen two year' of ze irain' for ze priesthood. Oui, monsieur." Ills eyes wandered out • -r ihe empty waters. "Zen ze sea ;] me, an' maybe ze devil also. Zat n .is /e whole of it,." "Yet you believe in ghosts?" The creole crossed himself. "Sacre, I know not w'at I believe. But it make ze blood chill to hear Tuttle tell w'at he see down zare in ze cabin. Zc question not w'at I believe, monsieur; it w'at we do wiz him?" 1 struck the rt»it with my fist, vexed at my own inability to take the ir.it'*- tive. "Tea, t h a n t h e immf De Nora,- I returned quickly, "but I'm not t h e one to decide It. I've known what I would do from t h e first, if I h a d the power. Tuttle's insanity waa n o t necessary to make me act—bis brutality t o those women below, his shanghaiing me into this fool scheme, were enough* I MO for taking possession of t h e vessel, even if we have t o lash him t o his berth." "Zat waa not to be tone, monsieur." "And why not? Must we sail with a madman? V i s is no regular voyage; not a man aboard h a s signed papers. Tuttle is no better than a pirate, and to overthrow him and assume control of the yacht would not be mutiny. We might sail straight back to Valparaiso and not a thing could be done with us." The mate shuffled from one foot t o the other, his black eyes hardening. "Now, see here, Mons. Stephens," he1 ' burst out, "zat was only ze half of it. Sure we not reg*lar crew, but we partners. Zat was ze way it is. We take ze big chance for ze profit. Zose sailor- men for'ard have nossing agains' zis Tuttle. Zey sink he tell truth. Maybe zey sink him a bit queer in ze head, maybe zey not like his praying, or bis talk of ze spirits, but so long he sail ze ship all right, zey stick wlz him. Zat all zey know—how sail ze ship; dam ze rest! Zey believe w'at he tell, zey divide zose pesos every watch below. Zat's it. If we lay hand on ze mate, by gar, ze lads fight for him till zey drop. Zey will do It, monsieur, an' no pretty talk you put up will make zem sink anysing but zat you try rob zein of zeir share. I know sailor-men, an' in case like 7ia, you got to go dam slow." "You a r e speaking for yourself and Anderson as well as the men, I take it?" "I^aybe so, monsieur; w'y not? We have long voyage, a n ' now we not so very far from zat place we aim at. Zen w'y not take look 'long zat latitude before we turn north again? W'y not, monsieur? Sure you not blame me for feel like zat?" "No, De Nova, I don't blame you," I replied, honestly, although disappointed at his confession. "That's natural enough. Still, I hoped there was a little French girl down below who might be worth more to you than even that fantastic dream of money." He did not meet my eyes, his own gaze out over the gray tumbling waters. But he smiled good naturedly. "I nevaire suppose, Mons. Stephens," he returned quietly, "zat a girl care less for man if he have plenty ze chink. A few days more not make much difference to ze ladies below. Zey have ze plenty eat, ze coal to burn. Maybe zare be truth in ze mate's story; anyway, it worth ze try. My share of ze pesos be bettaire as a sailor-man's pay. Oui, why not?" The man was undoubtedly right from his point of view, and I comprehended fully the utter uselessness of any further argument. I was still practically alone; yet now I had an understanding which greatly strengthened me. "Then why did you speak to me about Tuttle?" "To warn you take care of yourself, monsieur; to have you keep your eye on him." "That, then, is all you expect me to do?" "So 1 sink; zat will be all so long as he sail ze ship right, an' keeps away from ze ladies." Ay, but would h e ? The vagaries of a crazed man were beyond all guessing, and to be cooped up in the confines of a narrow cabin with one, and he in virtual command, was anything but a delightful position. I no longer doubted Tuttle's mental condition; in a way I had suspected it long before, but now I possessed positive proof. Even as I gazed down over the rail at the white foam rushing past us, it " - " ' • • • • ^ * " ' • • " - • * • waa to perceive t h e appealing eyes oi Lady Darlington.. De Nova's voice aroused me*.' "Would yon min' to glv' me ze present position of t e ship, niuugteui•?" I glanced around at him, startled by so unexpected a question. "Our position! Don't Tuttle prick off the day's run on the chart?" "Maybe he do, but he keeps ze map in bis own room. He get ver" mad w'en I ask him to see w'at It was. Zat was w'at he have agains' you—ze takin' of ze observation. He not seem to want us to know. 1 understan' not w'at he be up to, but I have to guess w'ere we.waa for maybe two week'." I gave him our position according to my latest figures, and we went forward t o the charthouse, hunting among the maps there until we finally discovered a n old one partially covering our course. By means of this I indicated with some accuracy about where we were, and the point toward which we were driving the Sea Queen. I left him studying over it and descended the companionsteps, unwilling longer to remain out of sight of those I guarded. My lady met me in the dim light of the cabin, her lips smiling welcome. "I have just found the music you were so anxious to hear," she exclaimed, triumphantly. "Shall I play it for you now?" And so we sailed on into the pitiless ice, through the cold, gray seas of t h e Antarctic, under a mad skipper, and I looked down at her smooth cheek, breathed the faint perfume of her hair, and strove vainly to forget. T DOCTOR'S BEST FOKMULA CHAPTER X V . In Which the Ghost Appears. Difficult work It was keeping sealed lips while we conversed upon matters far away, each endeavoring to avoid any reference to present surroundings. I knew I could fully trust this woman, could safely confide in her, yet surely there was no immediate necessity for telling her this latest development in Tuttle's case. Already she had burden enough to bear, and the manner in which she bore it awoke my sincere admiration. Whatever of despair, of womanly shrinking her private cabin tnay have seen during those weeks of loneliness, she brought nothing outside its doors but courage and inspiration. Once I remember she lingered beside t h e rail with me, clinging to my arm for support against the yacht's tumbling, her loosened hair flapping in the wind, her cheeks tingling from the flying spray which occasionally lashed our faces. It was my look of inquiry that unlocked her lips to confession. "I cannot help it, Mr. Stephens, but" the spectacle of the sea awakens all that is divine within me," she said, her lips smiling, her eyes grave. "I must have been born with the love of it in my heart. I know that sounds fanciful, like the speech of a schoolgirl, yet that is the fascination the sea exerts upon me. I never tire of it, and it must be that I possess the soul of the sailor." "Was it because of your innate love for such things that Lord Darlington took to yachting?" I questioned, curiously, always eager to observe her swift changes in expression. She laughed, with a queer little indrawlng of breath and uplifting of lashes. "Oh, no; far from it. He was an enthusiastic yachtsman long before we first met, but had contentedly confined his cruising to the English coast and the Mediterranean waters. No doubt it was my enthusiasm which induced him to attempt longer voyages and stranger seas. I lack' interest in ordinary social life, and was far happier on board the yacht than in London drawing rooms. His lordship was— was always most considerate."

Steps were taken to hud , the girl a husband, and a student or the name of Stepan Aleksandrovtia was found to supply the place. So op- ; posed was the father to his daughter • having anything to do witb the young man that be stipulated that tbey ; should be married by proxy and not ' meet during their studeut lives. j Ekateriua pursued her studies without even bearing of Aleksandrovua. i H e w a s the sou of a uoblemac w h o j had entered the uuiverslty in order to enjoy university life aud did not put in an appearance at lectures ofteuer than was absolutely uecessary to maintain his couuectiou with the lustitu-! tiou His father died while be was a ' studeut, and this took bim away for a loug while.

The Shade He Wanted. Delacroix, the painter, was walking out one day in I'aris with a friend of : his when he fell into a brown study. "What is up with you now?" said the friend. j "1 can't get a certain shade of yellow," replied the artist. "What sort of yellow?" Just then a cab drove past. "The very thing!" t h e painter gasped out. "Stop, stop!" "I am engaged," t h e cabby replied without stopping. Delacroix started in pursuit and a t a steep place in t h e Hue des Martyrs overtook t h e cab. Opening the door, be said in tones of entreaty to the passenger inside: "Do please tell your driver to stop. I want your complexion for a palntlhg j on which 1 am at work. There is a ' color merchant close a t hand. 1 shall l uot detain you above five minutes, and in acknowledgment of the service you render me 1 will present you witb ii i sketch of my picture." The bargain was struck. Delacroix got his yellow, and a few months later the "fare" received a sketch of hi.s "Assassination of the Archbishop ol Liege." A Costly Client. Miss Bayley told me <"iat Mr. Phlpps the oculist, told a gentleman, who told her, the following anecdote of the late Duchess of Devonshire: Mr. Phlpps w a s sent for to Chatsworth to .operate upon the duchess' eye.

She hoped t h e duke had done what was handsome by Mr. Phlpps. T h e gentleman protested: "Yes, and more than handsome." "It is an awful thing," continued her grace, "to ask, but really I am at this moment in immediate want of such a sum, and if you could, Mr. Phlpps." What could the oculist do? He produced his £1,000, took his leave and never heard of his money from that day to this.—From "Recollections of a Long Life," by Lord Broughton (John Cam Hobhouse). How Ha Paid His Fine. Pat Kelly, the owner of I lie only Jaunting car in the village, went on a spree and was sentenced to a line of 20 shillings or seven days in jail, Kelly chose the Salter. Now. ihe prison was ten miles away, and the only possible means of getting ;a prisoner there was by driving. As ' Kelly himself had the only car in the place, there was nothing to do but to hire it. For some lime the constable ', and his prisoner haggled over the terms, j Kelly stink out firmly for o0 shil- ' Hugs, to be paid in advance, and at. last the constable had to consent to the extortron. Accordingly they drove j off and without any misadventures arj rived at the prison. When they had alighted Kelly Suddenly informed his companion that he had changed his mind, as the prison wasn't a decent* looking place, a n d would pay the tine. He thereupon drew out the *?0 shil lings he had received, counted out the 20 shillings and paid them over to the Inspector. Then, jumping on his car. he drove away, leaving the constable to walk back. Shakespeare's House. The house lu which the master bard w a s born is located in Henley street. Stratford-on-Avon, England. Washington Irving said of this famous abode of genius: "It is a small, mean looking edifice of wood aud plaster, a true nestling place of genius, which seems to delight in hatching its offspring in by-corners. The walls of its squalid chambers are covered with names and inscriptions iu every language by pilgrims of all nations, ranks and conditions, from the prince to the peasant, and present a simple but striking instance of the spontaneous and universal homage of mankind to the great poet of nature." Several years ago the house ^ a s purchased by subscription with a view to the careful preservation of it and of Its contents for the inspection of future generations. Bear Ague. "Speaking of 'buck fever.' " said a ! survey official, "reminds me of 'bear ' ague.' Never heard of it, eh? Well, 1 first encountered it in Wrangel narrows, Alaska, a number of years ago. We Mere on the old surveying steamer Patterson. "Just as we rounded a point of land not more than 200 yards distant a big black bear w a s seen on the beach looking at us. Eight men took up rifles a t once and were about to shoot when I told them to wait and fire all at once In a volley when I gave the order. They all took careful beads on ! the beast. 'Heady, fire!* 1 shouted. "There was a rattle of ma#ketry ns the eight pieces were discharged, and every one looked to see* t h e animal's death throes. There was the hear running up the hill as lively as a jack rabbit. Not n shot had hit him. P.ear ague, that's all. Every man's hand , won trembling so be couldn't bit a house.

Jezv and Pagan Celebrated The Advent of \ Spring \ Easter Festival o ^ALt UL/li, U/ £ )0CXXXXXXO0CXD000000000000C>X)CXXXXXX)0000S HE festival of Easter la as ancient as the Garden of Eden. The singing of carols and decoration of the churches with flowers celebrate the Resurrection of Christ from the dead, but long before the Christian era both Jew and pagan made a feast at thla time. Among the Anglo-Sax ens, the goddess Eostre. the deity of spring, was honored when the green herbage began to stir In the fields and forests, and the northward moving sunrays melted the ice and enow. And the Romans adopting this goddess called her Aurora, the divinity of the da.wn and spring. The Fireworshipers on the uplands of Persia, and northern tribes everywhere, made joyful at the return of the sun, while the Jews kept their Passover on the 14th of Nisan. a festival to spring. Thus the older religions prepared the human hearts of later generations for a faith in the resurrection of life: and Christians reasoned that if the earth sprang to blossom at the coming of the sun, the dead might arise from the grave in spring eternal with the coming ~M the Saviour of men The pagan and Jewish feasts were observed about the time of th«s vernal equinox v b*ch was foretold by astronomer?, The Easter of the Christian church being founded on an historical event, the arguments in the councils resulted in its becoming a moveable feast in order to still controversy The Gregorian calendar fixed it as the first Sunday after the 21st of Mr^ch, and if a full moon should happen on that Sunday, Easter day must be the Sunday after. Ry this arrangement, Raster does not fall on the day of the Jewish Passover, and is yet influenced by the Paschal moon. The carols of the churches were Joyous. They wove nature study and theology wisely together, as in this favorite: T h e world Itsrlf k^rps E a s t r r d a y , And R a s t e r lnrks a r e s i n g i n g ; And E a s t e r fff/prs a r e blooming g a y , And Ranter t>uds a r e s p r i n g i n g ! Alleluia. Alleluia. T h e Lord h a s risen a s all t h i n g s tMI, Good C h r i s t i a n s see ye rise a a well, I Allehila. In this, as in other carols, followi the story of the Three Marys at the [ tomb, and of the resurrection, given j with some interest. Another favorite ! in the English church is this, which we know is popular in a land of many belfrlea: j l„et t h e m e r r y church belle ring, rir.g, ' ring.

Life bath conquered dying; Flowers are ami ling;, fields are say Sunny Is the weather, Q With our rising Lord to-day, All things rise together. From the first little band of strug gling Christians led by St. Paul, the Roman church grew into a powerful political organization and sought to keep all within the fold by utilizing the pagan customs, for the end sanctified the means. Following on Christmas had come a period of dull winter and fasting, now the season was changed and the earth awakened to youth and sunlight. Many curious practices of Persians, Druids, Goths and Vandals were drawn into churchly service. The most solemn celebration of all is that at the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, while the grandest is at Rome when the city is filled with church dignitaries and visitors. At Jerusalem the pilgrims ascend the Via Dolorosa. They come from every quarter of the globe chanting prayers, and taking part in the footwashing ceremony. The throng kneels In the vast rotunda of the church, many remaining in their places from Good Friday until Saturday when the patriarch with unllghted torch enter* the gloom of the Bepulcher. Suddenly as if flashing from heaven the fire runs along the torch, the multitude shouts with joy and singing a hymn of thanksgiving the flame aprlng3 from candle to candle, the tapers are passed along, and cherished are carried to the fastnesses of Afghanistan, to the sources of the Nile, and farthest east and farthest west wherever the Christian pilgrims make a home. The church permitted strange thlnga in Its efforts to arouse a proper spirit among the people, and to stir lightheadedness among the dull and heavy. The clergy told funny stories from the pulpit to excite "risus paschalis," an Easter face, a smiling countenance. In Auxterre, and Brebanson, both clergy and people danced to the strains of the Easter hymn "Victimae paschali," and a solemn game of ball waa played by clergy, canons and bishops for tansv cakes. LENA M. M'CMJLIY. Japan Wants a itend In With tht United 9tatea. That Japan will shortly submit f the state department proposals look* ing to an understanding between J*pan and the United States, so thai the two countries may together dominate the far east and maintain the open door, is the announcement mada by the Washington correspondent of the New York World. It is said that the proposals were received at the Japanese embassy in Washington and will be presented to the state department wlth-in a week. The proposals will be submitted "tentatively," it Is said, and It' will be urged that they be adopted for five years. According to the World's dispatches the proposals, constituting almost a formal alliance as a basis of understanding, are as follows: "1. That a formal understanding, by note, or treaty, looking to the consolidation and maintenance of the general peace in Asia, especially along the Pacific shores, is advteabte; the preservation of common and mutual interests in China by maintaining Chinese integrity and com* merclal equality, in conjunction with the provisions of the Anglo-Japanese alliance; the continued maintenance of the fisheries r'.?,hts of both countries in the regions of the Bering Straits, Philippines and Saghalien. "2. That whenever, in the opinion of either government, any of the rights or Interests of either party are in jeopardy, one of the parties will communicate with the other and they shall consider in common the measures to be taken to safeguard all menaced interests and rights. "3. That safeguards be taken for the interests of both nations, and of all those nations that were signatories to the Hay note. In case of unprovoked attack or aggressive policy, this agreement Is to be effective, no matter what government shall develop belligerency. It is further proposed that Japan shall agree to be morally bound to make peace, in mutual agreement, providing the United States recognizes the right of Japan to take such measures of guidance, control and protection of Chinese Manchuria and the Pacific basin as she may deem proper and necessary. This is with the understanding that Japanese procedure will be in consonance with the principles of equal opportunities for the commerce and industry of all nations."

The money, $416 in crisp new bills, waw brought to the comptroller by a Catholic priest, representing one of his parishioners, who believed he had obtained it unfairly from the city. No further details were volunteered. The old J Pierpont Morgan homestead at Woodlands Lake, only a few miles north of the business section' of New York city, Is to be turned into a park. For many years the property has been rented out to a dairyman, but the dairy has recently been closed by order of Mr. Morgan. The work of turning the estate into a playground will be begun shortly. Hereafter in accordance with a ruling of the commissioner of internal revenue, the caution notice required to be affixed to each box containing cigars may be imprinted or indented directly on the wood, metal, paper or other materials, used separ rately or in combination, for packing cigars or cigarettes, The new form of notice will take the place of labels and will result in a considerable saving of time and money to the man* facturers.

An aching back is instantly relieved by an application of Sloan's Liniment. This liniment takes the place of massage and is better than sticky plasters. It penetrates — without rubbing — through the skin and muscular tissue right to the bone, quickens the blood, relieves congestion, and gives permanent as well as temporary relief. Here's the Proof. Mr, J A M K S (J. LKK, of 1100 9th Rt., 8.H.,Washington, D.C.,writes: " T h l r t t year* ago I tell from a scaffold and seriously injured my bark.

When such men as Prof. Fisher of Yale University and Sir James Crichton Browne, LL.p., F.R.S. of London spend the best part of their lives in studying the great question of the nourishing and strengthening qualities of differ* ent foods, it is certain that their advice is absolutely safe to follow. Professor Fisher found in bis experiments for testing the strength and endurance of athletes that the meat eaters were exhausted long before the men who were fed on such food as Quaker Oats. The powers of endurance of the non-meat eaters were about eight times those of the meat eaters. Sir James Crichton Browne says— eat more oatmeal, eat plenty of It and eat it frequently. 59 The Right Spirit. Apropos of Valentine's day, a passenger on the Bermudian said: "Mark Twain once told us, in a little Valentine day speech on this boat, of an Irish wooer who had the right Valentine spirit. Acceptance or rejection he could take with equal grace. " Will ye be my valentine?' he said, on February 14, to the girl he loved. " 'No,' she replied; 'I am another's.' "He heaved a sigh and said: " 'Sure, thin, darlin', I wish ye was twins, so that I could have at laste the half of ye.'"

"Yes," said the musician in a reminiscent mood, "my wife fell in love with me and married me when I was learning to play the cornet." "Are you sure," asked his friend, that she married you because she loved you, or to make you stop practicing on the cornet?" HAVE YOU TRIED THIS? Simple Prescription Said to Work Wonders for Rheumatism. This has been well known to the best doctors for years and is now given to the public. "Get one ounce of syrup of Sarsaparilla compound and one ounce Torls compound. Then get half a pint of good whiskey and put the other two Ingredients into it. Take a tablespoonful of this mixture before each meal and at bed time. Shake the bottle before using." Good effects are felt the first day. Many of the worst cases here have been cured by this.

PINCKNET. - - - MICHIGAN BACK TO T H E FARM. Nino hundred million dollars' worth of Agricultural products were exported from the United StateB last y*ar, according to the bureau of statistics iu the department of commerce and labor. Secretary Wilson says that the total was ¢8,776,000,000, so that a lit- "tlo more than 10 pe* cent, of our farm products were. MM Abroad and the home coniMMMff* ajam to be content with Uf I l 1 » » m frfBfe-tenths. This Is a hejJtW'tntfftfon, but doubtlesa fceips 10 «Sttata the high price of protfaloas fa this country. Secretary Wttaon thinks the high prices are due to the fact that there are too few farmers and too many distributers, too many young men rushing to the city, Instead of staying home and tilling the soil, if we are to supply Europe us well as America with food stuffs we must increase the number of farmers with the increase of our population, and if farming la made and continues sufficiently profitable there will be no lack of farmers. The poor rewards of farming in the past have driven the farmer boys to other pursuits. There will be a cry of "back to the farm" as soon as it Is clear that there is money In farming commensurate with the toll which it exacts from those whose livelihood Is the cultivation of the soil. Certainly the gentleman who undertake to explain the cause of high prices of necessaries of life should reach some sort of agreement and harmonize their views before they try to enlighten the public. For weeks the big packers and others have been saying that meat is so dear because the people eat BO much and the supply is not equal to the demand. But here come the shoe manufacturers declaring that the people are turning vegetarians, and that with so few animals killed for food there is a shortage in skins and hides. Here are two radically different stories. Which is the consumer to believe? An Indianapolis man returned from Alaska wealthy, and gave to his parents, to whom he had been as one dead for 20 years, a check for $5,000 to make them feel that he was Btlll their son. Cases oT this kind are frequent enough to cause thought as to whether those who disappear in that way and cause anxiety and sorrow covering half an average life can ever make amend with demonstrations of affection from the check book. Enoch Ardens without proper explanation as to their absence are In the same class, and there is always doubt as to the quality of thf* sympathy that should be expressed. Crete continues to be a stormy petrel in European politics. Notwithstanding recent warnings the Cretans manifest a rebellious spirit and have so rftirred up the protective powers that fresh warnings against further agitation have been Issued. Crete is n small and relatively insignificant spot on the map. But when it keeps some of the greatest nations in the world on the anxious seat owing to doubt as to what the Cretans will do next it shows extraordinary capacity for trouble making. The claim that men could make a better business administration of foreign missionary affairs than women if they would only take as much interest in them, will be denied by anybody who has ever patronized an oyster supper given to raise foreign mis- Bion funds. The ladies have reduced the ratio to one oyster to the bowl and the best business talent In the world could do no mora by way of do* ing less. Luther Burbank, the plant wizard, is trying to cheer meat boycotters with the assertion that the spineless cactus may, in the course of time, take the place of meat on the table. But the meat, eater of the present will, without discrediting the Burbank production, feel satisfied to let the spineless cactus solve the meat problem of the far future. A Turk who wished to become a resident of this conutry has been deported because he said, when he was qupstioned by the immigration officials, that he believed it would be right for him to marry all the woman he could support. The officials probably had reasons for believing that his Judgment as to What would coast!- tttte support was faulty. ! • • I I ^ , * • » » • »• < ^ • ' ' SNOW HELPED CROPS GREATLY SO SAY CORRESPONDENTS IN A REPORT COVERING CONDITION FOR FEBRUARY. ESCAPED MURDERERS CAPTURED BY FARMERS AT GRASS LAKE. Robert MeCormick and Monroe Auckcrman, His Pal, Did Not Succeed In Getting Vary Far Away From Jackson — Farmer* Will Claim Reward. The Ccep Report. The monthly crop report for the state was given out at the secretary of state's office this morning, and in answer to the question, "Has wheat during February suffered injury from any cause?" 134 correspondents of the c i t h e r n counties answered "Yes" and 208 "No"; central counties, 11 "Yes," 146 "No"; northern counties, two "Yea," 14 "No"; upper peninsula, 22 answered "No"; in the state 147 "Yes" and 517 "No." Several correspondents of the southern four tiers of counties believe that wheat has been severely damaged by ice. Snow has been a great factor during the winter in the protection of wheat. The total number of bushels of wheat marketed by farmers in February at 140 flouring mills was 198.671, and at 127 elevators and to grain dealers 172,279, or a total of 870,950 bushels. Of this amount 296,926 bushels were marketed in the southern four tiers of counties, 62,338 in the central counties and 11.686 in the northern counties and in the upper peninsula. The amount of wheat yet remaining in the possession of growers is estimated at 4,000,000 bushels. Eightyseven mills, elevators and grain dealers report no wheat received in February. The average condition of live stock In the state is reported as follows: Comparison being made is in good, healthy and thrifty condition. Horses and sheep, 95; cattle, 94; swine, 96. MeCormick and Pal -Are Caught. Robert MeCormick, the Detroit murderer, and Monroe Auckerman, his pal, who escaped from Jackson prison early Monday morning, were captured at Grass Lake by two farmers, Horace Winfleld and Albert Wiedman. The men offered little resistance to capture and were taken back to Jackson at once. They have not been more than ten miles from the prison at any time since their escape and walked to Grass Lake from Jackson. They lay in hiding awaiting an opportunity to get farther away. The two convicts were caught in a box car which was lying idle in a gravel pit between Grass Lake and Leona. Winfleld and Wiedman ran across them accidentally and will claim the $100 reward offered. The farmers took the men to Jackson themselves, without the assistance of officers. Local Acts Piled High in Lansing. Gov. Warner's secretaries are busy answering questions as to what has become of several local special village charters and ordinances. The fact Is, the attorney-general's desks are piled high with these documents from various parts of the state and the matters are being taken care of as rapidly as possible. A number of county boards that have passed special local acts, and are wondering why the governor has not signed them, are probably not aware of the fact that in a great many cases telegrams and petitions have been pouring into the office of the governor asking him to veto them. Dr. Frltch Sentenced. Dr. George A. Frltch, of Detroit, convicted slayer of Maybelle Millman, must pay the extreme penalty under the law for manslaughter. After denying the motion of his counsel for a stay of sentence, pending the filing of a bill of exceptions to the supreme court. Judge Phelan itfP posed on the physician a sentence of from 7¼ to 15 years in the state prison at Jackson, with the recommendation that he serve the maximum. New Y. M. C. A. for Flint. Definite arrangements have been made for the organization of a Y. M. C. A. in Flint. Flint has the greatest proportionate masculine population of any city in the state. At a meeting of business men a board of directors was chosen and a general secretary elected. The board of directors wishes to raise $100,000 for a building. William Carleton Spokes, a sophomore in the engineering department of the IT. of M-, was struck and killed by the eastbound Michigan Central mail train, a mile west of Ann Arbor. The Soo bridge across Pike river, three miles south of Dunbar, went down Thursday with a heavy freight train of 20 cars. The train broke in two, and 12 cars went into the stream. The accident is one of the worst in the history of the road and traffic Is demoralized. No one was Injured. STATE BRIEFS. The body of an unknown man who perished In the snow was found on the road from Chase to Luther.. The authorities are investigating. Chester E.~ Jackson, of Ovid, was named by Gov. Warner as county agent of the state board of corrections and charities, for the county of Clinton. He is an ex-member of the state legislature.

Separated at childhood by the death of their parents, and adopted by families in Indiana and Ohio, Mrs. W. A. Covey, of Cadillac, and Mrs. Anna Gibson, her Bister, at Lowell, will meet for the first time in 41 years. Ernest Howe, of Homer, met instant death when attempting to jump from a local freight train ou the Lansing and Hillsdale branch of the Lake Shore. His head was crushed., and both hands and one leg were cut off. Major N. S. Boynton. of Port Huron, known as "The Father of the Maccabees," who "has been confined to his bed for several months, is able to be around again. For a time it was feared that his illness would result fatally. Fr. Thomas Reed, pastor of Holy Name church of Grand Rapids, was badly beaten and robbed of his overcoat and some money by a thug, near the church Thursday night. His life was spared by the failure of the highwayman's gun to explode. According to statistics from the secretary of state, 11,270 persons have died from pulmonary tuberculosis in the past five years. The statistics show that Michigan is not the leading state in the number of deaths, there being 25 others leading. Fifteen-year-old Boyd Hart, of Grand Rapids, dashed into the street in front of a team of runaway draft horses and attempted to stop the horses to prevent them striking a crippled man who was crossing the street in front of them. He was badly hurt and may die. So distasteful has the appearance of the streets leading up to the railroad passenger station in St. Johns become that the Ladies' Literary club has raised $280, $225 of which will be placed in the hands of the common council and the balance will be expended for flowers. To expand their plant and increase their business the Democrat Printing & Publishing Co., publishers of the Monroe Weekly Democrat, has purchased a strip of land, 60x95 feet. adjacent to their present location, and will erect a two-story brick structure.

It Will Soon B» Over Unless Unions Get Stronger Support Than It Now Evident; Man Returning Daily. « There are certain indications at Philadelphia that the general strike will disappear unless the labor unions are able within a few days, to drag to their support Influences that have remained aloof. Men who left their jobs in the first hysteria are gradually going back. The number of men on strike is less by thousands than it was a few days ago. Summing up the situation as it appears, the unions have been thrown back upon their own resources, and these resources have been weakening. The city officials, who have been canvassing among employers, announced Saturday that the employes of 65 mills out of 69 would return to work Monday and Tuesday. In many of these mills, it is said, men have already returned. The transit company reports that carmen have apnlied for reinstatement, and that more than 30Q have been put at work. Nearly 200* union foundryraen in the northeastern part of the city, employes of four foundries, have voted to go to Work Monday. Several unions of carpenters have signified their intention of breaking strike. The taxicab drivers are all back on the job. Despite the daily statistics uttered by the committee, there is no doubt that the general strike is steadily disintegrating. Washington Will Not Interfere. Advices from Washington hold to the opinion that there is nothing to be done by the government at this time to settle the Philadelphia traction strike. The trouble as federal officials review it is local in character. PATTEN'S "RECEPTION." The Chicago Speculator is Chased in Manchester, Eng. .lames A. Patten, the Chicago speculator, who went to England, as he said, "to look around." had occasion to look sharply from the moment that he appeared on the floor of the cotton exchange at Manchester. His appearance was the signal for a hostile demonstration which resulted in his forcible ejection from the exchange and a flight through the streets from a mob that was prevented only by the police from doing him serious harm. Patten was hidden for a while in a business office and later smuggled Into a cab and driven to a more secluded refuge. Patten's coming to Manchester had been widely heralded since his arri^ val in Liverpool and the reception was ready for him. Seven Men Killed in Mine. Seven miners lost their lives In the No. 5 shaft of the Lehigh & Wilkesbarre Coal Co. near Wilkesbarre, Pa., in an explosion of gas. There were eight men in the party.

When the bodies were brought up there were many pathetic scenes around the mouth of the shaft "where the relatives and friends of the victims had gathered.

Then every once in a while I would be suddenly doubled up with an awful agony in my stomach. It seemed as though every time I took a breath I would die. No one could suffer any more and live. "Finally I got down so sick with catarrh of the stomach that I could not turn over in bed, and my stomach did not digest even milk. The doctor finally told me that if I did not give up drinking coffee I would-surely die, but I felt I could not give it up.

C. McClunr * Co.. INI SYNOPSIS. The story opens with the introduction Of John Stephens, adventurer, a Massachusetts man marooned by authorities at Valparaiso, Chile. Heing Interested In mining operations in Bolivia, lie was denounced Dy Chile as an Insurrectionist and ua a consequence was hiding. At his hotel his attention was attracted by a a Englishman and a young woman. Stephens rescued the young woman from a drunken officer. He was thanked by her. Admiral of the Peruvian navy confronted Stephens, told ldni that war had been declared between Chile and Peru and offered him the office of captain. He desired that that night the Esmeralda, a Chilean , vessel. should be captured. Stephens accepted the commission. Stephens met a motley crew, to which he was assigned. He gave them final instructions. They boarded the veHsel. They successfully captured the vessel supposed to be the Esmeralda, through strategy. Capt. Stephens gave directions for the de- J>arture of the craft. He entered the cabn and discovered the English woman and her muid. Stephens quickly learned the wrong vessel had been captured. It was Lord Darlington's private yacht, the lord's wife and maid being aboard. H e explained the situation to rier ladvshlp. Then First" Mate Tattle laid bare the plot, saying that the Sea Queen had been taken in order to go to the Antarctic circle. Tuttle explained that on a former voyage he had learned that the Donna Isabel was lost in 1753. He had found It frozen in a huge case of ice on an island and contained much gold. Stephens consented to be the captain of the expedition. He told Lady Darlington. She was greatly alarmed, hut expressed confidence in him. The Sea Queen encountered a vessel In the Cog. Stephens attempted to communicate. CHAPTER XII.—Continued. ' H. M. 8. Victory, on cruise. Stand by, while we aend ft bout." A depp path a p n u t r t o Tuttle'a !tpg, | nis Angers convulsively gripping the rail. Then he appeared to rally, the very Intensity of hla fear making a \ new man out of him. : "Lively, lads, clear the deck," he commanded, harshly. "Here, one of you take the wheel. Now, De Nova, bundle that lighting fool down into the charthouse, and stand over him with a gun. Two of you fellows carry the boatswain into the fo'castle; lively, now." They were certainly expeditious enough in my case, dragging me bumping down the steps, and flinging me in between table and bench with a violence that made me groan. I caught the glimmer of a steel barrel in De Nova'a hand aa he drew close the sliding door. "It was not nice sing to do, Mons. Stephens," be said, not ill-naturedly, "but, by gar, out ze farslty row it was going to be done, for I shoot ze pistol very good." "That's all right, De Nova," I replied, realizing my complete defeat and holding no personal grudge against him. "I don't blame you. I've made my play, and have had"" enough. May I sit up?" He nodded carelessly, dropping the revolver back into his jacket pocket, ypt with hla black eyes fastened shrewdly on my face. " 'Tis ze bes' way to talk, monsieur," pausing to listen to the mingled "Lay your hands on me agatn," 1 threatened, sternly, "and I'll door you to the deck. I'll lake1 that grin off your face, De Nova, if you attempt any interference with me now.'' He understood quickly enough what I meant, and evidently had no relish for attacking me alone, for with one swift, searching glance into the fog, he leaped down the steps and ran hastily aft. I knew ho was seeking the backing of Tuttle, and armed myself with a belaying pin, peering eagerly meanwhile for the near-by sail, and cursing the fellow at the wheel for not holding her up to the point directed. They came up together, two Btepa at a time, Tuttle in his shirt sleeves, and, as they attained the bridge, Rill Anderson swung himself out of the hatch and started after them. I backed away, the ugly iron pin grasped in my hand, "You'd better keep back," I warned, threateningly. "I'm ready to brain the first man who attempts to touch me." Tuttle stopped, his jaw working savagely, his eyes on mine. "Will you promise to keep quiet, sir, an' let us get away out. o' this?" "Damn you, no!" stubbornly, all my senses leaving me at sight, of his hateful face. "I'll speak that ship yonder if I have to fight the crew of you single-handed." "Then fight, you cockerel, an' be damned to you!" roared Anderson; and he pressed past, the two of them and sprang at me. ~"~ It was hot, swift, work, while it lasted. I struck twice, laying open the big brute's scalp, and dropping him so his head hung dangling down over the deck, his body huddled against the rail. I aimed to do a i well by Tuttie, but the descending pin landed on his uplifted arm, and, before I could draw back for another blow, the fellow at the wheel released the spokes and jumped at my back, throttling me with his hands as the weight of his body crushed me to the planks. Grasping the rail I half tore myself loose, rising to one knee, and struck him twice madly in the face; but others of the crew came tumbling on top of us, pinning me helplessly down. It was all the work of a breathless moment, and as I lay there, the knee of a negro crunching Into my chest, I saw De Nova spring to the wheel and whirl it hard down, while Tuttle, his left arm dangling, his teeth set fro,,. pain, began jangling the bells In the engine-room. Scarcely had the echo reached us when a strange voice hailed Bharply from out the dense fog; "Steamer, ahoy! What vessel is t h a t ? " Tuttle's nasal voice answered: 'Steam yacht Cormorant, Panama to Easter island, for pleasure. Who «i*e you?" The Descending Pin Landed on His Uplifted Arm. sounds without. "Sacre, I wonder w'at ze devil was up now!" We both sat. breathing hard from our late exertions, listening anxiously, yet with vastly differing emotions, hope animating me that this was to prove a capture, or, at least, that some chance discovery by the officer visiting us would result in the release of the women below. Hut De Nova was in an agony of apprehension, the full peril of his position clear before him. We heard the bare feet of the hurrying sailor* patter along the deck, the strident, voice of Tuttle issuing a few final commands, and the faint sound of oars In the water alongside. The officer came slowly up the ladder, and my heart sank as I heard him laugh carelessly to the mate's greeting. 1 could distinguish the sound of his voice, but not the words uttered, and in some way it impressed me with the thqught. that the fellow was young, a midshipman, j -sibly, who would prove mere puny under Tuttle's expert handling. The two went down ihe companion-steps together in app a r e n t l y amiable conversation, and we could heard the low murmur of voices as the crew hung over the rail jesting with the men-o'-war's men in the boat, below. My eyes met De Nova's in the semi-darkness, and he grinned, showing his teeth. "Nossing ver' dangerous, monsieur," he said, easily. "Ze ol' fox he fool zat kid." I attempted no response, my mind already sufficiently heavy from apprehension. Oh, for just a word, merely an opportunity to cry out our story before it was forever too late! Tie Nova must have felt the struggle within me, for he stretched his logs across the narrow passage leading to the door, and I saw his hand thrust into his coat pocket. Underneath his genial veneer he was one to act upon occasion, absolutely careless of the result. So I waited in sitance, my teeth set hard, my hands clenched, as the last vestige of hope oozed slowly out of me. They were scarcely ten minutes below, coming up chatting in rare good fellowship, the officer clinging to the rail, bis feet on the ladder, while he completed some story he had been relating with much-ffw»to. Then wc i.'i! plainly the dip of oars, growing ...dirilly fainter in the distance, feet pattered on the deck planks, Tuttle's voice sounded from the bridge, and the vessel began throbbing to the steady chug of the screws. We were safely under way again, pressing our sharp bow into the fog-bank. UnabJo to control my weakness, I buried my face In my hands. 1 do not know Iron* long we sat there motionless, De Nova staving blankly ( Bt tbe rapbr sweeping past t h t window, and I with head lowered in depression. It was Tuttle himself, with one arm in an Improvised sling, who slid open the deOr of the-charthouse and looked in upon us. "This is your watch yet, De Nova/* he said, shortly, "and I need to doctor up my arm a bit. You're a dam' hard hitter, Mr. Stephens," no trace of anger in his voice, "but that's about the last chance you'll have to kick up a shindy on this vessel. You'll go below, sir, an' stay there, unless we happen to need you." . I stepped forth onto the open deck in obedience to his gesture. "Then I am no longer even in pretended command, but merely your prisoner." "Call it whatever suits you best," he returned, grimly. "The result will be the same In any case. Well, De Nova, what are you waitln' for?" "I sink maybe you say w'at was it ze navy man wanted?" Tuttle's solemn countenance broke into the semblance of a grin. "Plug tobacco," he announced, sucking his lips with sudden enjoyment of the joke. "Gave me the scare of my life, but that's all it amounted to. Been out crulsln* for three months, an' the crew ready to mutiny for smokin' and chewin'. Nice, sociable little chap they sent over, too." CHAPTER X I I I . In Which We Sail Due South. As I sank down into the recesses of a cushioned chair in the cabin, my spirits at lowest ebb, 1 glanced up at the telltale compass—we were already [ headed due south. Those days and nights following, while serving to bear us continually deeper into the immense expanse of water that concealed the mystery awaiting us In the great South sea, contained little of incident directly relating to this narrative. Day following day that same wide circle of the sky came down to unite with the circle of the waters. It was almost as though we remained motionless, "a painted ship upon a painted ocean"; only the figures on the paper, the pins on the chart, the sharp stem cleaving the waves asunder, and the oily wake astern leaving us aware of steady progression through this trackless desert of the sea. We passed somewhat to the westward of Juan Fernandez, so far out that only with a glass from the foretop could t,he distant peaks be dimly deciphered in blue, misty blots against the sky. Already Tuttle had banked the fires, and spread the Sea Queen's canvas, reaching to the westward to get the most possible out of the fresh breeze. The Sea Queen changed motive power and appearance as if by magic, the square yardj hiding the jauntiness of her keel, and concealing the rake of her masts, the white sails bellowing out before tho wind, sending her swooping forward through the water like a great bird, leaning over until at times her lee rail was all awash with white foam and her forward decks glistening with spume. Tuttle drove her recklessly, holding on in spite of crackling wood and sails threatening to tear loose from the bolt-eyes, taking shrewd advantage of each slant of wind, and lowering canvas only when danger was deadly. He bad come into his own, he was at home, and the rejuvenated Sea Queen leaped forward at his will, as though endowed with fresh life. He seemed to understand her moods, her caprices as though he had sailed her in every soa, and I watched him test her. loosening a rope here, tightening another there, striving to discover her good and bad qualities, until my admiration for his seamanship almost overbalanced my growing detestation of him otherwise. Lady Darlington became positively afraid of him, dreading his approach, shrinking from his address, yet not daring to withdraw wholly from his presence. His sole topic of conversation was psychomancy, and every time she endeavored to lead him to some mora pleasant subject k a* would return with dogmatic persistence to t h a t one rather dismal theme. His blatant self-conceit saved .him from realizing her utter wearmess, and . h e -never * seemed to tire of h h r o w n unctuous, nasal tones. Heavens, bnt the fellow was an insufferable bore. Celeste would slip away unobserved, but her mistress and myself had no means of escape. I remained quietly below for three days, and even then was not released by any formal word of mouth. 1 simply became so tired of the senseless imprisonment that I mounted to the deck, taking Lady Darlington with me, determined to be confined to the cabin no longer except by physical force. De Nova was upon the bridge when we emerged from the companion, but he merely glanced a t us curiously. Tuttle, coming aft a little later, retained sense enough to remain silent. The three days passed below had thrown me much into the society of both mistress and maid, although the frank intimacy of that first conversation with Lady Darlington was never resumed. There seemed an intangible barrier of reserve between us, although we talked freely enough regarding our situation, the peculiarities of Tuttle, and the constantly changing wonders of the deep. It was as if neither of us quite dared to probe beneath the surface, opening up once more the depths each endeavored to conceal; rather were we content to drift as the tide-ran. I saw comparatively little of De Nova, the second officer, during this period, and gained an Impression that he was endeavoring to avoid meeting me. Yet I ran across him twice in company with Celeste, once in the cabin, and again in the narrow deck space overhanging the stern, and began to hope vaguely that the girl was winning him over to our interests. With the others 1 sought to approach I made no progress. McKnight seldom showed his nose above deck, and then only to smoke in sullen silence, seated gloomily on the edge of the main hatch or to the lee of the charthouse. Olsen was undoubtedly honeBt enough, yet without intelligence, his eyes those of a faithful dog. The Chilean, a smooth-faced young fellow wonderfully deficient in chin, I learned had been assigned as assistant to the cook, and was thus kept too busy inside the galley even to be approached. Indeed, so far I had not seen his face on board the ship. CHAPTER XIV. In Which De Nova Speaks. What now occurred came upon us with such suddenness that I find it difficult to relate tbe incidents in detail. We must have been below the fiftieth degree of south latitude, and about 135 degrees west, with the wind strong and occasionally puffin* up into squalls, bearing flakes of snow which stung exposed flesh and left a thin mantle of white along the decks. It was Tuttle's watch below, and as I paused In the protection of the companion way looking forward, while I got my pipe going, I could see De Nova on the bridge, wrapped up like a mummy, and crouching well down behind the tarpaulins. AH about was a wild sea scene, never to be looked upon amid any other stretch of waters on the globe—a dull, dead picture of utter desolation, of madly racing waves, of green, sullen sea, of pale blue sky, the very frost In the air apparent; a cold, drear expanse of monotonous distance wherever the eye looked—a desert of water below, a void of air above. Big Bill Anderson, his head still bound up where I had cracked him, slouched in the doorway of the charthouse. staring aft, and a moment later De Nova came lumbering down the steps from the bridge and spoke with him for some earnestly. The boatswain finally went forward, clinging to a lifeline to keep footing on the slippery deck, and the second officer clawed aloug the weather- rail until he reached the companion. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Almost Deserved to Escape Truant's Quick Grasp of Opportunity Compels Admiration. The absent-minded professor returned home one night to learn that his son had played truant from school, and he was asked by his wife to hunt up the missing youngster and administer a sound thrashing. "Why, I'll flay him alive!" exclaimed the angry father. "I'll break every bone in his body! Just wait until I get him out in the woodshed!" He came across his heir playine [ marbles about a mile from borne, but the boy didn't seem to be a hit alarmed by the old man'* threats. As they started to return home the absentminded professor stopped to^chat with an old acquaintance, and it was fift*i»n or twenty minutes later when he his side and asked: "Why, where did you come from. J a c k ? " "Don't you remember, father?" smiled the boy, we are on our way to buy me a box of candy, because of my excellent achool report."

Plan to Have One -Sermon on Sunday, April 24, Devoted to Scourge of Tuberculosis. Following campaigns against consumption that have been carried on in the churches of hundreds of cities, and sermons on tuberculosis that have been preached before thousands of con gregationg during the past year, a movement has been started by the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis to establish a permanent tuberculosis Sunday, on which it fs hoped that every one of the 33,000,000 church-goers in the United States will hear the gospel of health. This year the Sunday selected is April 24. It is planned t h a t un April 24 tuberculosis sernpKll ftlMU h» preached in all the •liwufcw flf'tytt country. Literature will fee to members of the congre in every way an effort will be teach that tuberculosis is a dangetqMMI disease and that it can be prevented and cured. Clergymen who desire to obtain additional information in regard to tuberculosis will be able to secure literature from state and local anti-tuberculosis associations and boards of health, as well as* from the national association. THE PROPER PINE TO USE FOR COUGHS AND COLD Many pine extracts contain resins causing nausea and cramps. For most reliable and quickest results In curing a severe cough or cold follow this formula: "Get two ounces of Glycerine and half an ounce of Concentrated Pine compound. Then get half a pint of good whiskey and put the other two ingredients into it. Take a teaspoonful to a tablespoonful of this mixture after each meal and at bed time." But be sure to get the genuine Concentrated Pine. Each half ounce bottle conies In a tin screw-top case. Any druggist has it on hand or will quickly get it from his wholesale house. A New Version.

Header, when you are preparing to go jto town to do some trading, just pickj up your home paper and look over the advertising columns.

Try it and see. On Wednesday last, Leo the 7 year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Ray Thomas of Charlotte was playing with some boys and attempted climbing into a wagon. His left foot caught in the wheel in such a manner as to throw him out and drag him some distance in the mud, breaking the leg twice above the knee.

Superior Grain Drills havrf been Standard and To-day stand a s Perfection in Grain Drill Construction. Why the Superior Stands At The Head! 1st—It has the strongest maiu frame. It is i:apossible for the Superior frame to allow the hopper to sag and is sufficiently strong and rigid to prevent twisting. The frame is made of one piece of heavy, light carbon angle steel, bent cold at the corners and re-inforcecl with heavy corner plates and last bnt uotTleast a ' heavy I beam steel bed rail, is placed in the center of the frame. 2nd—The Superior uses the strongest aud best constructed wneel (either wocd or steel.) J 3rd—The axle of a Superior Grain Drill is as important as a line shaft in a machine shop aud is as well braced as the' _ best of line shafts. 4th—The change of feed is the simplest and the best and is made by changing the sliding pinions on the Superior Disk Wheel. 5th—The Superior is one of the mighty few drills made that is perfectly balanced and has no neck weight, this is a valuable point. 6th—The Superior Hoe Drill has the frout lift and has no rear cross bar to prevent the user in getting up close to the hopper in rilling same. The cut to the right shows ilie Improved Superior Double Rnn'Eorce Grain Feed. This feed hws been in iit>e the past two seasons and has met, with universal satjhfft.-tion. One side is used for small grain and tho other tsuh> t<u" coarse grain, such as oats, beans, beet seed, t;te. The'" Superior Feed Wheel gets under the load and carries'it. out, it .does not get on top of the lo;id and kick it out, If you wilt ; pxamiue the Superior Feed you can see; for yourself that it i s the best constructed and will do better w irk than nny 'other make of feed.

Theodore Hooaevelt arrived at this place on Monday, and was received officially by Gen. Sir Reginald W i n g a t t v governor general o f ** e Sudan, on behalf of both the Egyptian and English governments. The ex-president was met here by Mrs. Roosevelt and Miss JJthel and by a t e s t of American and European correspondents and numerous delegations of political and other friends from the United States. In fact this historic town is literally filled with visitors brought here to greet the returning traveler. With hrs arrival a t this place, Col. Roosevelt completed one of the most notable journeys through the wilderness of Africa that has been undertaken since the days of Livingstone and Stanley. It was a remarkable journey both in number of animals slain and preserved as specimens, and bec& nse of Its lack of accidents and sickness of every kind. Ordinarily a traveler, through the regions through which Col. Roosevelt has passed, comes out of the jungues loaded with malaria and fever germs. Up to the present time, neither Col. Roosevelt nor any of his party have shown any symptoms of having contracted any of the numerous contagious diseases. Gen.

Representatives of the many tribes df the desert have been gathered here into one great encampment, and for Col. Roosevelt's entertainment, have indulged in every possible form of native amusement, giving dances, races, etc. The town of Khartum Is a mass of color. Flags of Egypt, England and America are everywhere, and the ox president has probably appreciated nothing more than the opportunity of visiting this historical spot. Khartum is virtually built around the grave of "Chinese" Gordon. The city itself is a gigantic monument to that soldier's deeds and his heroic death. In the center of it stands his effigy in bronze, mounted on a camel, gazing with fixed eyes out toward the deflert. which -mocked him during the terrible year that he lay there waiting' for relief. Behind the Rtatne stands the British governor's palace, nn imposing structure in the Gothic style, typical of British power and British permanence. Name Gordon Everywhere. Not far away is the Gordon Memorial college, a school built with funds raised by Gen. Kitchener by subscription throughout Great Britain, in which the Sudanese newer generation is trained for service in that government which conquered its fathers. Everywhere throughout the city the name Gordon appears. There is the Gordon hotel, the Gordon drive and up the White Nile the Gordon tree. Gordon's memory will live so long HS Khartum exists. The British h a w transformed the city of his death Into a memorial to his glory that can laut'h at time. HtvJtwlufl the Trip* A chronological history of Mr. Roosevelt's wonderful journey, and a partial list of the animals killed is as follows: March 23—Sailed from New York for Naples. 4,17( miles.

Tho One Way by Which Handsome. . Plw Can Be Kept In Plrtt* Ciasa Condition. The care of silver plate, and the keeping of those pieces which are In daily use looking like new, and removing every trace of dullness for some time to come, la a science, This oonaidts of the somewhat drastic measure of putting the various articles into a large tin wash boiler, after giving them a thorough polish with hartshorn and whiting, and then covering them with water, Into which a handful of washing soda has been thrown. Allow the water to boil for two or three hours, and then remove the silverware, giving it a good rub with a soft-chamois leather, which produces an exceptionally handsome and lasting pollBh. In the case of handsome hand-made pieces of plate, with repousse or embossed designs in high relief, this is actually the only way of getting the deposits of cleaning powders out or the crevices, and for several weeks afterward rubbing is all that the articles require to bring them up to the proper brilliancy. Once a month or once in six weeks is the time limit lor these silver boilings, for otherwise maids are apt to grow dependent upon its efficiency and consequently to neglect the weekly cleaning. , Salt fish can be quickly freshened by soaking it in sour milk. Japanese lacquer trays can be cleaned by washing with cold water and a soft sponge. While still damp dust with flour, rub dry with a flannel and polish with chamois. The secret of keeping chamois skin soft and supple is to hang it up to dry while still soapy. Remember this when washing chamois gloves. Not everyone knows that If the edges of graniteware are brushed inside and out with shellac, and melted spider immediately applied, it will mend as easily as tinware. An excellent cleaner for common woodwork, mirrors, windows, fingermarks and grease spots Is made by dissolving four tablespoonfuls of Boft soap in a bucket of hot water. Add a tablespoonful of paraffin while the mixture is boiling. If added later there will be a disagreeable odor. Racooked Fish. Cut one onion into a saucepan, add half a pint of water, a little mace and parsley. Boil thoroughly, add one pint of milk or cream, one desBert- Bpoonful of butter, one tablespoonful of flour and strain all through a sieve. Take some halibut or other fish, remove the skin and bones, flake it, butter a dish, and put first a layer of fish, then some of the dressing, and so on, alternately,^*untll the dish Is full. Cover the top with breadcrumbs, and bake from 30 to 40 minutes. Sopa de Arras. One cupful of dry rice, fried in two tablespoonfuls of boiling lard for 20 minutes, stirring and mashing with spoon. Add a small onion sliced quite fine and two or three toasted tomatoes which have had the skins removed. Cook well for 20 minutes more and then add two cupfuls of broth. Allow these ingredients to simmer until quite soft and season to taste. Although thick, it is eaten with a spoon. Whitening Clothes. Take equal parts of kerosene and turpentine and shak» well together. One tablespoonful of this mixture added to the soapsuds in which clothes are boiled will be found to have a most cleaning effect. A spoonful of kerosene In boiled starch keeps it from sticking, but do not use enough to make it smell. Scotch Oat Cake. To make oat cake put four cupfuls fine oatmeal in a pan and mix to a stiff dough with one tablespoonful of lard melted in enough warm water to make consistency required. Roll out thin and bake. Some Scotch housewives put a pinch of baking soda into the meal, but no salt should be used, as it makes them too hard. Testing Nutmeg. To test nutmeg prick them with a pin, and if they are good the otl will instantly spread around the puncture. Broom Holder. Take two large empty spools, two nails about an inch longer than the Rpools, but nail through the spools and drive the nails, leaving enough Rpace between spools for the broom to hand in. 8tove Cement. If the stove is cracked a good cement Is made by taking wood ashes and salt in equal proportions, reduced to a paste with cold water, and fill in cracks when stove is cold. it will *oon harden. m PHYSICIAN APPROVES Taking Lydia E Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Sabattus, Maine.—"You told me t o take Lydia E.

Childish Confidences That Should Never Be Repelled, But Always Encouraged. A boy's heart is full and overflowing. He needs tsuuie one who will listen to bia confidences. If he is repelled and finds himself alone, he becomes fretful, indolent or worse. His affairs are not "nonsense." A good mother never says: "Run away; 1 am busy." She listens, encourages. Important discoveries may be made in these outpourings. She givea sympathy, enters iuto his feelings, sees things from his point of view. If he tells her of something which proves that he is at fault, she does not reprimand at the time, because this will check further confidences. She gives her attention quietly, tells him she is glad he has confided in her, and that she will talk of it again to him. If a mother has insight she can solve many problems. She Is interested in her boy's Bports, collections, his school aud companions. The choice of his companions should not be left to chance. It is well if they are from families known to his parents. TINY BABY'S PITIFUL CASE "Our baby when two months old was suffering with terrible eczema from heftd to foot, all over her body. The baby looked just like a sfchmed rabbit. We were unable to put clothes on her. At first it seemed to be a few mattered pimples. They would break the skin and peel off leaving the underneath skin red as though it were scalds. Then a few more pimples would appear and spread all over the body, leaving the baby all raw without skin from head to foot. On top of her head there appeared a heavy scab a quarter of an inch thick. It was awful to see so small a baby look as she did. Imagine! The doctor was afraid to put his hands to the child. We tried several doctors' remedies but all failed. "Then we decided to try Cuticura. By using the Cuticura Ointment we softened the scab and it came off. Under this, where the real matter was, by washing with the Cuticura Soap and applying the Cuticura Ointment, a new skin soon appeared. We also gave baby four drops of the Cuticura Resolvent three times daily. After three days you could see the baby gaining a little skin which would peel oft* and heal underneath. Now the baby is four months old. She is a fine picture of a fat little baby and all is well. We only used one cake of Cuticura Soap, two boxes of Cuticura Ointment and one bottle of Cuticura Re- Bolvent. If people would know what Cuticura Is there would be few suffering with eczema.

In order to show that spitting on the sidewalks is dangerous to health,an investigation has been made by Dr. John Robertson, medical health officer of Birmingham, England, which shows that s e v e n per cent, of the "spits" collected in public places contained consumption germs. On the other hand the dust collected from the floors of the cottages of the Adirondack Cottage sanitarium has been found to be free of tuberculosis germs, showing that a careful consumptive is not dangerous. ss.

We know positively that comets attain their immense extension In space on account of the material comprising them being excessively tenuous, thinner than the lightest filmy haze of summer, says Professor Harold .lacoby. for we know the comets are not massive; they are almost entirely without weight. Anrl (his we know with certainty, because their arrival produces no perturbations of motion among the planets of the solar system, while the inexorable laws of mechanical science tell us that a massive comet must surely disturb the usual orderly planetary orbits. A comet might. Indeed, strike the earth, though such a collision is most Improbable. But even if it should ever occur the visible effects would probably be no greater than those produced occasionally by meteorites, or "falling stars." The other possible danger from the comet, the chance of suffocation from gases in the rail, Is also negatived by actual observation, for it is almost certain that our earth did once pass through a comet's tail, and no one noticed It at the time. Only the subse quent calculations of astronomers brought out the fact that the cometary orbit and that of the earth really hail a common point of Intersection and that l>oth bodies occupied that point at the same time.—New York American. College Sentiment. Dr. Rlank. about twenty years a professor In a certain college, was on the eve of a trip to Kurope, to be absent two years.

Would that there was a window In my breast, my dear boys, that yon might see the innermost recesses of my heart."

If the English sparrow were not audi a hardy little rascal, BO well able to take care of himself and thrive and multiply, how our pity would go out toward hJUa! Especially might we now allow our generous feelings to flow, when the department of agriculture has just Issued a farmer's bulletin in which it haa nothing really good to say about this dweller everywhere and offers various means for getting rid of him. But the English sparrow needs no pity, saya Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. He will live by grace or without it, and we may expect that, notwithstanding the bulletins, we shall continue always to have him with us, hardy, prolific, bold, cunning, self-reliant and unwashed. The bulletin— and it is sadly in accord with popular experience—represents this active neighbor of human kind as a dyed-in-the-wool criminal among birds. He attacks, it seems, almost every sort of vegetation useful for food, preys on his own kind by destroying their eggs and driving them from gardens and parlu and has no melodious pean to offer after his victories. He ahould be treated as vermin, and reduced in number, even if he cannot be exterminated. To be sure, the bulletin does not offer one forlorn hope. Mr. Dearborn of the biological survey says that he ought to be eaten. The propositions emanating from the United States, looking to the creation of an international peace court and to the neutralisation of the railroads in Manchuria as a step to "Harmony of all interests In that quarter, have made a profound impression and are regarded as measures of world politics of the highest significance and pointing to most beneficent results. That is the best and noblest of diplomacy, and again illustrates the lead which the United States is taking in seeking to promote good understanding and to safeguard peace among the nations. Aspirations to such "world power' as this, which means the welfare of all mankind, must be approved by even the most stubborn "anti." According to the later details the one failure at the aviation meet in Los Angeles was that of a government dirigible balloon, which it was found could not hold gas and therefore could not be used in flying. This hints at a weak'spot in this class of airships and may strengthen the cause of the aeroplaniBtB, who contend .that the heavierthan- air machine, properly constructed and operated, is the real thing. Anyway, it must be admitted that this class of air craft won most of the distinction at the California show. Mexico reports that its agricultural products last year were worth $330,- 000,000. That is a very creditable showing, though it looks small alongside of the $8,000,000,000 output of the United States. But, added to the increasing value of the products of Mexican industries of various kinds, it is gratifying as indicating the growth and prosperity of our southern neighbor.

Fire which was started by a gas heater in the bathroom Saturday night drove 11 roomers, many of them in their night clothing, out of tie Alsdorf rooming house, at Lansing, damaged the building to the extent of $10,000, and destroyed clothing and jewelry belonging to the guests, the value of which is estimated to be $500. No one waB injured, though theie were several narrow escapes, and Mrs. Stella Seeley, part owner of the property, is in a serious condition from shock. It was one of sthe mostly costly flies Lansing has seen in years. The Alsdorf waB built about ten years ago at a cost of $25,000, and has been conducted since as a first-class rooming house. Among the roomers was T. E, Ely, state highway commissioner. Rich Lumberman Dies. A. E. Cart lor, president of the Northern Michigan Transportation company, of Chicago, and of the Cartier Lumber company, of Ludingtou. father of Mayor C. E. Cartier, died in Ludtngton, aged 74. He was a timber king of Mason county and amassed a fortune of several millions in the early lumber industry. A widow, two daughters and six sons survive him. Mr. Cartier was mayor of Ludington for one term and had been prominent in religious circles. Six sons— ex-Mayor W. A? and D. E. Cartier, of the Cartier Lumber company, and Moyar C. E.

Concede $666,000 for the Saginaw, Congressman Fordney has won on his big Saginaw river improvement project. The board of river and harbor engineers has recommended the appropriation of $68G,000 to give an 18-foot channel in the hay to Bay City, and a 16-foot channel in the river to Saginaw. The board accepts without change the original recommendation of Col. Townseml which provided that the 16-foot channel l>< carried to the Tlttabawassee river, at the upper city limits of Saginaw. The plea of meaning no harm is one often advanced as an excuse for wrongdoing. A man of average intelligence who intends no Wrong will keep within due limits and not take chances of wrong resulting. Many are too often satisfied with this vague and unmeaning excuse to their conscience, but it has little weight either in reason or law. Figures for the calendar year 1909 show that the trade between the United State* and Canada was the largest ever known for an equal period. Moreover, the figures prove that the business done by the countries with each other has doubled In ten years. That does not indicate that either side is barring out the other. Corporations Early With Annual Reports. State and foreign corporations in great numbers are filing their annual reports with the secretary of state these days, in compliance with the law which requires the reports to be filed by March 31 each year. Any corporation in default 10 days thereafter automatically loses its corporate powers. Within two days over 1,200 reports have been filed, each accompanied by a fee of 50 cents. It is estimated that there are 7,000 corporations doing business in Michigan, and the number increases each year. 1 Burbank. the plant wizard, naa developed a spineless cactus as a substitute for meat It is going greatly to simplify matters If one can simply go out in one's garden or back yard and pull one's roast or joint fresh from it* growing.

An exodus of 100 union machinists is one of the results of the campaign recently begun by the union organisers in their efforts to make Battle Creek feel the power of organized labor. These men have, through the efforts of Organizer Clarence Dowd, of Detroit, secured positions throughout v e state at higher wages. They are >aving in small groups to take up their work. Most of the men are married and have families. Dowd made the statement some time ago that, the union machinists would get higher wages without resorting to a strike, and tnis is his method. His Idea is to create a scarcity of machinists In Battle Creek and thereby secure a raise in wages. Shocking Accident to Hearse. Thrown from the hearse in which they were being conveyed to the cemetery at East Berlin, near Capac, the bodies of Mrs. Sharp and her child were cut by flying glass, the casket was broken and ChrlB Walters, owner of the funeral wagon, and his driver were Injured when the hearse tipped over from a depression in the road. A panic resulted. Warship Michigan Shows Speed. The new battleship Michigan, now on her official trial trip off the Chesapeake capes, has already made a splendid record. A message received at the navy department stated that the ship yesterday made her four-hour speed run at the rate of 19.42 knots an hour, almost a full knot In excess of the contract requirement STATE BRIEFS.

Evans, of Bay City, has tendered his resignation that he may attend to his business matters more closely. Evans was elected a year ago. Scottville cltitens are considering, apparently with favor, the proposition of C. W. R. Roach, of the Hart Canning company, to erect a canning factory. The county board of supervisors has decided that the local option question shall be submitted to the voters at the coming spring election in Gogebic county.. Prof. A. S. Warthin, of the medical faculty at Ann Arbor, has 40 volumes of medical books in his library which were published in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The women of Ingham county will be asked to state their opinions in regard to local option in the county. The petition will, it is said, be similar to that circulated among the men. Arrangements were completed whereby the inmates of the recently burned Michigan Masonic home at Grand Rapids will be cared for in a vacant fashionable clubhouse until June 1. The Wexford County Medical society has adopted a resolution to prescribe liquors only to persons at their bedside, in other words, to cut out giving prescriptions to those who have a bad cold. The advisory board of the Royal Arcanum of Michigan held a meeting at the Hotel Dresden. Flint, and selected Detroit as the place for the annual meeting, which will be held Tuesday, April 19. The board of supervisors of Gogebic county created a new township In the extreme eastern section of the county. It will be known as Carlson, in honor of Conrad Carlson, the first clerk of the county. With from 35 to 40 loads appearing on the market dally, the potato price slumped at Traverse City from 20 to 18 cents. Fearing a spring breakup the farmers seem to be willing to let go of their tubers at'any price. The Michigan Central railroad Is planning to build an extension from its Bay City line to some point on the St. Clair river. It is expected an extension will be built from Lenox to Rochester and Utica via Mt. Clemens. Congressman Fordney, at Washington, wired the Saginaw board of trade that either Secretary of State Knox or Secretary of Agriculture Wilson will speak at the annual merchants and manufacturers' banquet in March. The case of W. P. Parsons vs. Stewart Bills, Owos8o, over the location of a line fence, has been taken to the supreme court. The case Involves one-half acre of land valued at about $25, and has caused about $3,000 worth of litigation in the past 40 years. That Frank Wager, of Paines Station, whose dismembered body was found beside the Michigan Central tracks in Saginaw, came to his death by a freight train while intoxicated, and was not killed for hla money, was the verdict of the coroner's jury. Several thousand feet of lumber belonging to the Flint Lumber company, were washed into the river by a flood. An ice jam a few blocks west of Saginaw street, the main thoroughfare, has formed in Thread creek, causing an expanse of water of more than 200 feet. Cadillac will probably he the meeting place of the interstate commerce commission on March 24.

The lodge will furnish the necessary money to fight the case. 3E3E. 5= GENERAL STRIKE SEVERAL 8 M A L L RIOTS OCCUR IN VARIOU8 PARTS OF CITY. SCORES OF PEOPLE NURSE INJURIES FROM MINOR CLASHES W I T H POLICE. Trolley Men Propose Arbitration to 8ottle Difficulty With the Transit Co. The sympathetic strike of organ Ized labor in Philadelphia called to assist the street car men In their controversy with the Philadelphia Rapid Transit company was generally responded to by union workmeu. There are conflicting reports as to the number of men who quit work. The best estimates at hand vary from 30,- 000, given by the police department of the city, to 75,000 claimed by tne union leaders. General disorder marked the inaugural day of the great industrial conflict. There were numerous a»- reBts and scores of people are nursing slight injuries received in minor skirmishes with the police. Independence square was the scene of a great gathering of strikers. After the marchers left the square, they paraded through the central part of the city and numerous clashes occurred. Nothing more serious than a few "broken heads," however, resulted. With all the conflicting reports as to the extent of the strike, it la evident that Philadelphia's Industries are not yet prostrated by the conflict. The great industrial establishments, such as Baldwin's Locomotive works, Cramps' shipyard, Brill's Car works, the Midvale Steel works, all of which are "open shop" concerns, were in operation with practically their full force. World's Prayers to Shut 8aloons. The prayers of Christians throughout the world will, it Is ^announced, be turned against the Chicago saloons and for a local option victory on April 5, as a result of the entrance of the Chicago Christian, Endeavor union in the fight against the liquor traffic.

The various branches of the Christian Endeavor union throughout 'the world have approximately 4,000,000 members. These will be asked to spread the request to members of the churches by means of denominational magazines and religious publications, and enlist their prayers in the fight. Farm Industry Now Booming. That the farming Industry is receiving an Impetus in some parts of the country at least is indicated in the rush for settlement of the public domain during the first six months of the current fiscal year. Notwithstanding that the extent of the national lands has steadily decreased through reservation and settlement, 110,000 entries were established during the first half of this year, while 81,000 was the total for the corresponding period of the preceding 12 months. This increase of 30,000 is attributed In large part to the 320-acre homestead act for the settlement of certain arid lands for dry farming. The craze for land has been especially evident In Montana. One hundred and eighty entries were made in one day at Great Falls in that state. John D.'s Cash for Chinese. That the incorporating of the Rockefeller Foundation provided for by a bill introduced in the United States senate by Senator Gallinger will be followed by widespread activity in China by John D. Rockefeller and his co-workers was the belief expressed at the University of Chicago when the news reached here. President Harry Pratt Judson declared that while the general education board, of which he Is a member, has power to direct educational efforts only In this country, the Rockefeller Foundation will have no limit as to Its activity. Dr. Hyde Indicted. Dr. B. Clarke Hyde, husband of « niece of the late Thomas H.

HOW A DOCTOR CURED SCALP DISEASE "When I was ten or twelve yeara old I had a scalp disease, something like scald head, though it wasn't that. I suffered for several months, and most of my hair came out. Finally they had a doctor to see me and he recommended the.Cuticura Remedies. They cured me in a few weeks.

CHANGE T H E VIBRATION It Makes for Health, A man tried leaving off meat, potatoes, coffee, and etc., and adopted a breakfast of fruit, Grape-Nuts with cream, some crisp toast and a cup of Postum. His health began to improve at once for the reason that a meat eater will reach a place once in a while where his system seems to become clogged and the machinery doesn't work smoothly. A change of this kind puts aside food of low nutritive value and takes up food and drink of the highest value, already partly digested and capable of being quickly changed Into good, rich blood and strong tissue. A most valuable feature of Grape- Nuts la the natural phosphate of potash grown in the grains from which it is made. This is the element which transforms albumen in the body into the soft gray substance which fills brain and nerve centers. A few days' use of Grape-Nuts will give one a degree of nervoua strength well worth the trial. Look in pkgs for the little book, "The rtoad toWeUville." "There's a Reason."

SYN0P3I8. The story opens with th« Introduction of John Stephens, adventurer, a Massachusetts man marooned by authorities at Valparaiso, Chile. Being interested In mining operations in Bolivia, he .was denounced by Chile as an insurrectionist and as a consequence was hiding. At his hotel his attention was attracted by an Englishman and a young woman. Stephens rescued the young woman from a drunken officer. He was thanked by her. Admiral of the Peruvian navy confronted Stephens, told him tUat war had been declared between Chile and Pemi and offered him the office of captain. He desired that that night the Esmeralda, a Chilean vessel, should be captured. Stephens accepted the commission. Stephens met a motley crew, to which he was assigned. He gave them final instructions. They boarded the vessel. They successfully captured the vessel supposed to be the Esmeralda, through strategy. Capt. Stephens gave directions for the departure of the craft. He entered the cabin and discovered the English woman and her maid, Stephens quickly learned fhe wrong vessel had been captured. It was Lord Darltngton's private yacht, the lord's wife and maid being aboard. He explained the situation to her ladyship. Then First Mate Tuttle laid bare the plot, saying that the Sea Queen had been taken In order to go to the Antarctic circle. Tuttle explained that on a former voyage he had learned that the Donna Isabel was lost in 1753. He had found It frozen in' a huge case of tee on an Island and contained much gold. Stephens consented to be the captain • of the expedition. CHAPTER XI.—Continued. This unexpected and undesirable information seemed fairly to stun the fellows, their eyes meeting blankly. I heard Bill Anderson swear. "The Question is, how can we best dispose of them? This Is no excursion for ladles, no pleasure trip of any kind, we've started on. Shall we hail some passing vessel and trans-shipthem, or shall we run in to Juan Fernandez and put them both safely ushore?" None of the three men ventured to glance toward me, and for" a long moment no answering voice spoke. Then Tuttle gave oily utterance to words of compromise. "Blame If this don't sort o' knock m*1 all out, sir," he acknowledged. "I don't exactly cotton to either of those idees of yours, an' I don't know what is best. I guess I'll have to talk It over with my mates here first, but vou can tell them ladies that we'll got "em out somehow before we turn south. Anyhow, they don't need to worry none 'bout beln' Ill-treated. Then I take it, sir, that you mean to sail with UP?" "There doesn't appear to be anything else I can do." "You're about, right there. Well, lei's shake hands on it." ' 1 did so, deliberately ignoring both the others, and feeling my flesh twitch when I touched his flabby palm. Tuttle chewed savagely on the tobacco in his cheek. "Damn the women!" he commented in sudden anger. "Better give the crew their breakfast, Anderson. Mr. Stephens, I've sent Dade into the cabin to attend things aft. He'll make a good hand at that sort, o' job." We passed out. together Into the bright sunlight on deck, and I remained in silence for a moment beside the rail, gazing forth across the empty soa. Had I done what was right in all these circumstances? Under God, I was not really certain; yet I could perceive no other action possible. A slenderly built, ^"toop-shouldered young fellow, who shuffled about like a waiter ashore, was in the pantry, and I noticed a white cloth spread over the table, which had been lowered from its stanchions and now occupied the center of the main cabin, and a swinging shelf suspended above. "Ever act in this capacity before, Dade?" I aBked, sizing him up in the dim light. "Oh, yes, sir," a slight lisp to his tongue; "I've done cabin work on thu coast liners." "Then you should surely understand your business. Lay covers for four." "Four, sir?" In surprise. "That is what I said, Dade; two ladies. Mr. Tuttle, and myself. That makes four to my figuring. Now step lively, my lad. When will breakfast be ready tn serve?" "In about 15 minutes, sir." t waittd until be became boa? wit* ht» 'work, hit face stM filled wit* asnazement 6rer a y revelation, then walked around the end of the piano, and rapped eoftly at the after-cabin door. ' Celeste opened the door with a dainty courtesy and a quick' uplifting of frightened eyea to my face. She had been crying, and in some way her vary manner made me suddenly aware how poorly I stood in..the estimation of her mistress and herself. Yet, for the moment, I did not seriously care, stepping quietly within, cap in hand, intent merely on the rapid completion of my visit. Lady Darlington arose instantly from her chair, steadying herself to the roll of the vetweLwlth one hand on the brass rail of the .bed, and fronted me silently, the expression of her face expectant but reserved. Gazing upon her, I felt the fully revealed power of her beauty, as the sunlight streaming through the open port illumined her hair and outlined the delicate oval of h6r face. Troubled as she was, surrounded by a terror no less real because she failed thoroughly to comprehend it, facing one she must distrust and secretly fear, her first utterance, friendly and courteous, merely exhibited a heart, which beat warmly beneath Its Blight armor of pride. "I am exceedingly glad to greet you again, Mr. Stephens," she said, pleasantly, even endeavoring to smile; "you were absent »o long we had begun to expect evil news." "1 regret to say, Lady Darlington, that I bring you only very little of any "Treasure!" She Gasped, "Where Do You Propose Going In Search?" kind," I replied, striving earnestly to imitate her self-possession. "Arrangements on board have not yet assumed definite shape, so that I can make no promise concerning your future. I can merely assure you present safety, and pledge you every comfort the yacht affords while you remain with us." She continued to gaze at me strangely, her eyes, filled with questioning. "Then you—you refuse to tell us our fate?" "Merely because I do not know It. As I said before I am only one man pitted against 20." She pressed her hand over her eyes, as though she would hide from me the sudden horror pictured within their depths. "What are you?" she exclaimed, suddenly, her lips trembling. "Into whose hands have we fallen? I beg that you av,r-\< v me honestly—why have you stolen this yacht? What real purpose underlies -this terrible outrage?" I made no effort to disguise the deep sympathy I felt for her, yet there was nothing I could answer but must, have sounded both harsh and cruel. "The motive animating the men in control is similar to that which rem ders possible most of the desperate deeds of the world—the search after treasure." "Treasure!" she gasped, thoroughly bewildered. "Where do you propose going to search?" "Far south, into the Antarctic." The expression on her face was pitiful, yet I stood helpless to comfort. "Merciful God! And you actually mean to bear us with you into that forsaken sea of ice? Oh, surely you jest, you seek to frighten;-you cannot be earnest in such act of 'cruelty. Whom can I believe? What, can I hope? You have told me you were the captain of this crew of buccaneers, and yet you say you can accomplish nothing with them to forward our release. Then take me to those who can! Let me beg upon my knees for mercy. Surely, surely we are of no value to you in your search after "•or.sure. We are only weak, helpless •...men. Think of what this must mean to me, and be merciful." There was no, trace of tears in her eyes, but it was the white, agonized face, the unconsciously outspread arms of appeal, that smote me. I felt all my limba tremble, my lips Ulter, as I made swift response. "Lady Darlington, believe me, I have no desire evcept honestly to serve you. The actual truth is, I have constat** to retain what is a purely Inal command of this vessel, with no other pwrposjo except that sueh outward authority yields ms some opportunity to assist and protect you. Otherwise-1 would spurn the whole affair and defy these outlaws to do their worst. It was a deplorable accident that brought me hero and planed me in this situation. Practically I am as much a prisoner on board as yourself. Laterrif the opportunity over bo given, I shall relate you my story, and then, perhaps, you will appreciate how perfectly helpless I am to overrule the decision of this vessel's crew. They are mad with the lust of gold, crazed by the prospect of suddenly achieving vast wealth through a single bold stroke. Would the tears of a woman influence them now? would the Impotent threat of a single, helpless man? They are armed, organized, determined, desperate. "The only thing I can do is apparently to yiejd to them, trusting thus to persuade them into some measure of mercy; and the only thing you can do is patiently to abide'my efforts to release you from such companionablp. I mean to do my best, even to the sacrifice of my life. The very thought of bearing you with us into the fogs and dangers of that storm-lashed ocean is misery to me. God knows I would do anything possible to spare you such a fate. But I wish you to understand, realize fully, how difficult my own position is. I do not bid you hope; only pray, and, above all, retain your courage. I promise nothing, because I dare venture no pledge. But I beseech you not to break down, not to exhibit open fear. In any event our first effort should be to awaken confidence in the mindB of our captors, and arrive at a frank understanding between ourselves. Lady Darlington, will you be guided in this by my judgment?" "Oh, I wish to believe," she sobbed, only half aloud, "I need some one, some one In whom I feel confidence, in whom I may repose faith. I beg of you not to consider me weak, a nerveless creature, but this situation 1B intolerable. I will endeavor to do what you ask. I will Btrlve to be brave, helpful, appreciative. I—I think you are what you say. See, I give you my hand in promise." I clasped it instantly within both my own, bending low above the white fingers, my lips set In firm resolve. I retained it still when I lifted my head, and our glances met. "What is it you first desire of me?" "Breakfast has been prepared, and is now awaiting us in the cabin," I answered, knowing well that some form of action must strengthen her more quickly than any further talk, "and I wish you to join us at the table exactly as though this was an ordinary voyage," "I know the food will choke me. Does Celeste sit with us?" "I believe you would prefer having her in the circumstances. You would not feel quite so much alone." "I should like it; it was most thoughtful upon your part. Shall— shall we be alone at table?" "With the exception of the first officer, who is really the leader on board." It was evident plainly enough that Rhe shrank from the ordeal, the delicate lines hardening about ths mouth, the gray eyes eloquent of disinclination. A moment she hesitated, her form swaying as though buffeted by a storm; then she slowly bent her head. "I am at your service, Mr. Stephens." In the main cabin we discovered the table already set and waiting, appearing bright and cheery with a brave display of snowy cloth and glittering silver, the swinging shelf above adorned by bottles and glass. "Call Mr. Tuttle, Dade,'* I ordered, quietly. "Then htirry back and) ienre/ CHAPtfcH XIIIn Which I Endeavor te Assert Authority. I was on deck again at noon, and shot the sun, returning below to work out oar position. The Sea Queen still held closely to her course, almost directly west, and, realizing my helplessness, I forebore asking useless questions. Indeed, I was secretly pleased that Tuttle stUl held to that point of the compass, for we were now in the direct path of Australian commerce, and hence much more likely to raise a sail at any moment than it we veered farther to the southward. If any such vessel appeared I had determined to pit my strength against the crew, even to the point of physical danger. At one o'clock Dade called the women, and soon the four^of us weie seated at table again. My lady's masv ner weighed upon my spirits, which had been none of the lightest before her appearance. I felt profoundly that the faint influence my previous words had Inspired within her mind had already evaporated; that she now held me as at one with the remainder off the yacht's crew. I arose as they retired from the table, but received no reward of recognition from her averted eyes. Feeling deserted, almost humiliated, I smoked my pipe alone oa deck under the lee of the cabin. But it was perfectly useless loitering there, with no duties to perform, and the sea all about bare to the far horizon. Besides, some sailor instinct told me a storm was brewing yonder to the northward which might keep me upon the bridge all night, so, In preparation for such a possibility, I went below and lay down in my bunk. I was a long time getting asleep, finally dropping off only to be aroused by the rattling of dishes when Dade arranged the table for the last meal of the day. De Nova was pacing the bridge and emerged from the companion. I could not see the seaman who hailed, the mist held so thick, and his words seemed like a weak echo. "Sail, almost directly ahead, sir." "W'ereaway?" asked De Nova, peerlug anxiously forward. "I can see nossing. Fo'c'sT zare—you see ee ship?" "Nothin' in sight from here, sir." The mate stared up into the vapor overhead. "Ware was It you see it, you fellow on ze foreyard?" The odd echo of a voice came back out of the sky. "I only caught her through a hole In the fog, sir, one point off the weatherbow." With a swift bound I was up the steps to the bridge and beside the second officer, recklessly determined lo assume command. Before he clearly realized my presence I jangled the bells in the engine room. "Hold her steady as she Is," I said sternly to the fellow grasping the wheel. De Nova wheeled and faced me, his black eyes full of sudden anger. "Wat ze hell you mean?" he exclaimed, so surprised he stuttered. "1 was officer of ze deck." "And I am commanding the yacht, Mr. De Nova," I retorted quickly, pushing back his hand from the signal, "I propose speaking that vessel yonder, and trans-shipping our passengers. Port a little, my man—no, port, you fool!—now hold her so; steady." De Nova grasped my arm, his fingers like steel, but I broke away, pressing in between him and the rail.

"William, dear," feebly called the invalid wife, who was supposed to be nearing the end of her earthly career. "Yes, darling," answered the sorrowing husband. "What is it?" "When I am gone," said she, "I feel that for the sake of the motherless little ones you should marry again." "Do you really think It would be bost, darling?" asked the faithful William. "Yes, William, I really do," replied the invalid. "After a reasonable length of time you should seek the companionship of some good woman." "Do you know, my dear?" said the husband, "that you have lifted a great burden from my mind? Now, there is that charming Widow Jones across the way. She has acted rather friendly toward me ever since you were taken III. Of coarse, dear-she could never fill your place, but she is young, plump and pretty, and I'm sure she would do her best to lessen my grief."

ANDREWS. PublUbvr. JINCKNET, - MICHIGAN THE INQLI5H SPARROW. If the Engilah sparrow were not such a hardy Uttle rascal, so well able to take care of himself and thjrtve and multiply, how our pity would go out toward him! Especially might we now allow our generous feelings to flow, when the department of agriculture has Just Issued a farmer's bulletin In which It has nothing really good to say about this dweller everywhere and offers various means for getting rid of him. But the English sparrow needs no pity, s»ya Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. He will live by grace or without it, and we may expect that, not withstanding the bulletins, we shall continue always to have him with us, hardy, prolific, bold, cunning, self-reliant and unwashed. The bulletin— and It Is sadly In accord with popular experience—represents this active neighbor of human kind as a dyed-in-the-wool criminal among birds. He attacks, it seems, almost every sort of vegetation useful for food, preys on his own kind by destroying their eggs and driving them from gardens and parks and has no melodious pean to offer after his victories. He should be treated as vermin, and reduced in number, even if he cannot be exterminated. To be sure, the bulletin does not offer one forlorn hope. Mr. Dearborn of the biological survey says that he ought to be eaten. The propositions emanating from the United States, looking to the creation of an international peace court and to the neutralisation of the railroads in Manchuria as a step to" Harmony of all interests in that Quarter, have made a profound impression and are regarded as measures of world politics of the highest significance and pointing to most beneficent results. That is the best and noblest of diplomacy, and again Illustrates the lead which the United States is taking lir seeking to promote good understanding and to safeguard peace among the nations. Aspirations to such "world power* as this, which means the welfare of all mankind, must be approved by even the most stubborn "anti." According to the later details the one failuft at the aviation meet in Los Angeles was that of a government dirigible balloon, Which it was found could not hold gas and therefore could not be used in flying. This hints at a weak spot In this class of airships and may strengthen the cause of the aeropianists,', who contend that the heavierthan- air machine, properly constructed and operated, is the real thing. Anyway, it must be admitted that this class of air craft won most of the distinction at the California show. Mexico reports that its agricultural products last year were worth $330,- 000,000. That is a very creditable showing, though It looks small alongside of the $8,000,000,000 output of the United States. But, added to the Increasing value of the products of Mexican Industries of various kinds, it is gratifying as indicating the growth and prosperity of our southern neighbor. The plea of meaning no harm 1B one often advanced as an excuse for wrongdoing. A man of average intelligence who intends no wrong will keep within due limits and not take chances of wrong resulting. Many are too often satisfied with this vague and unmeaning excuse to their conscience, but it has little weight either in reason or law.

The board of river and harbor engineers has recommended the appropriation of $686,000 to give an IS-foot channel in the bay to Bay City, and a 16-foot channel in the river to Saginaw. The board accepts without change the original recommendation of Col, /Townsend which provided that the 16-foot channel be carried to the Tlttabawassee river, at the upper city limits of Saginaw. Corporations Early With Annual Reports. State and foreign corporations in great numbers are filing their annual reports with the secretary of state these days, in compliance with the law which requires the reports to be filed by March 31 each year. Any corporation In default 10 days thereafter automatically loses Its corporate powers. Within two days over 1,200 reports have been filed, each accompanied by a fee of 50 cents. It is estimated that there are 7,000 corporations doing business in Michigan, and the number increases each year. Figures for the calendar year 1909 show that the trade between the United States and Canada was the largest ever known for an equal period. Moreover, the figures prove that the business done by the countries with each other has doubled In ten years. That does not Indicate that either side Is barring out the other.

An exodus of 100 union machinists Is on* of the results of the campaign recently begun by the union organisers in their efforts to make Battle Cresk feel the power of organized labor. These men have, through the efforts of Organizer Clarence Dowd, of Detroit, secured positions throughout s e state at higher wages. They are >aving in small groups to take up their work. Most of the men are married and have families. Dowd made the statement some time ago that, the union machinists would get higher wages without resorting to a strike, and tnis is Ms method. His idea is to create a scarcity of machinists in Battle Creek and thereby secure a raise in wages. Shocking Accident to Hearse.

Nothing more Herious than a few "broken heads," however, resulted. With all the conflicting reports as to the extent of the strike, it is evident that Philadelphia's industries are not yet prostrated by the conflict.

That the farming Industry is receiving an Impetus In some parts of the country at least is indicated in the rush for settlement of the public domain during the first six months of the current fiscal year. Notwithstanding that the extent of the national lands has steadily decreased through reservation and settlement, 110,000 entries were established during the first half of this year, while 81,000 was the total for the corresponding period of the preceding 12 months. This increase of 30,000 is attributed In large part to the 320-acre homestead act for the settlement of certain arid lands for dry farming. The craze for land has been especially evident in Montana. One hundred and eighty entries were made in one day at Great Falls in that state. John D.'s Cash for Chinese.

A man tried leaving off meat, potatoes, coffee, and etc., and adopted a breakfast of fruit, Grape-Nuts with cream, some crisp toast and a cup of Postum. His health began to Improve at once for the reason that a meat eater will reach a place once in a while where his system seems to become clogged and the machinery doesn't work smoothly. A change of this kind puts aside food of low nutritive value and takes up food and drink of the highest value, already partly digested and capable of being quickly changed into good, rich blood and Btrong tissue. A most valuable feature of Grape- Nuts is the natural phosphate of potash grown in the grains from which it is made. This Is the element which transforms albumen in the body into the soft gray substance which fills brain and nerve centers. A few days' use of Grape-Nuts will give one a degree of nervous strength well worth the trial. Look In pkgs for the little book, "The Road to WeUvUle." "There's a Reason." " •"• V ' ->"'• .

Being interested in mining operations in Bolivia, he .was denounced by Chile as an insurrectionist and as a consequence was hiding. At his hotel his attention was attracted JQjf an Englishman and a young woman. Btephens rescued the young woman from a drunken officer. He was thanked by her. Admiral of the Peruvian navy confronted Stephens, told him tUat war had been declared between Chile and Pesu and offered him the office of captain. He desired that that night the Esmeralda, a Chilean vessel, should be captured. Stephens accepted the commission. Btephens met a motley crew, to which he was assigned. He gave them final instructions. They boarded the vessel. They successfully captured the vessel supposed to be the Esmeralda, through strategy. Capt. Stephens gave directions for the departure of the craft. He entered the cabin and discovered the English woman and her maid, Stephens quickly learned rhe wrons vessel had been captured. It was Lord Darlington's private yacht, the lord's wife and maid being aboard. He explained the situation to her ladyship. Then First Mate Tuttle laid bare the plot, saying that the Sea Queen had been taken In order to go to the Antarctic circle. Tuttle explained that on a former -voyage he had learnod that the Donna Isabel was lost in 1753. He had found it frozen In* a huge case of Ice on an island and contained much gold. Stephens consented to be the captain • of the expedition. CHAPTER XI.—Continued. This unexpected and undesirable information seemed fairly to stun the fellows, their eyes meeting blankly. I heard Hill Anderson swear. "The question ia, how can we best dispose of them? This is no excursion for ladies, no pleasure trip of any kind, we've started on. Shall we hail some passing vessel and trans-shipthem, or shall we run in to Juan Fernandez and put them both safely ushore?" None of the three men ventured to glance toward me, and for- a long moment no answering roice spoke. Then Tuttle gave oily utterance to words of compromise. "Blame if this don't sort o' knock mo all out, sir," he acknowledged. "I dour exactly cotton to either of those idees of yours, an' I don't know what is best. I guess I'll have to talk It over with my mates here first, but you can tell them ladies that we'll get 'em out somehow before^Ve turn south. Anyhow, they don't need to worry none 'bout bein' ill-treated. Then I take it, sir, that you mean to sail with us?" "There doesn't appear to be anything else I can do." "You're about right there. Well, lei's shake hands on it." ' I did so, deliberately ignoring both the others, and feeling my flesh twitch when I touched his flabby palm. Tuttle chewed savagely on the tobacco in his cheek. "Damn the women!" he commented in sudden anger. "Better give the crew their breakfast, Anderson. Mr. Stephens, I've sent Dade into the cabin to attend things aft. He'll make a good hand at that sort o' job." We passed out together into the bright, sunlight on deck, and I remained in silence for a moment, beside the rail, gazing forth across the empty sea. Had I done what was right in all these circumstances? Under God, I was not reallycertain; yet I could perceive no other action possible. A slenderly built, ^loop-shouldered young fellow, who shuffled about like a waiter ashore, waa in the pantry, and I noticed a white cloth spread over the table, which had been lowered from its stanchions and now occupied the center of the main cabin, and a swinging shelf suspended above. "Ever act in this capacity before, Dade?" I asked, sizing him up In the dim light. "Oh, yes, sir," a slight lisp to hi? tongue; "I've done cabin work on tru coast liners." "Then you should surely understand your business. Lay covers for four." "Four, sir?" in surprise. "That is what I said, Dade; two ladies. Mr. Tuttle, and myself. That makes four to my figuring. Now step lively, my lad. When will breakfast be ready to serve?"

Yet, for the moment, I did not seriously care, stepping quietly within, cap in hand/ Intent merely on the rapid completion of my visit. Lady Darlington arose instantly from her chair, steadying herself to the roll of the vesseLwith one hand on the braes rail of the Jbed, and fronted me silently, the expression of her face expectant but reserved. Gazing upon her, I felt the fully revealed power of her beauty, as the sunlight streaming through the open port illumined her hair and outlined the delicate oval of her face. Troubled as she was, surrounded by a terror no less real because she failed thoroughly to comprehend It, facing one she must distrust and Becretly fear, her first utterance, friendly and courteous, merely exhibited a heart, which beat warmly beneath its slight armor of pride. "I am exceedingly glad to greet you again, Mr. Stephens," she said, pleasantly, even endeavoring to smile; "you were absent so long we had begun to expect evil news." "I regret to say, Lady Darlington, that I bring you only very little of any "Treasure!" She Gasped, "Where Do You Propose Going in Search?" kind," I replied, striving earnestly to imitate her self-possession. " rrangements on board have not yet assumed definite shape, so that I can make no promise concerning your future, I can merely assure you present safety, and pledge you every comfort the yacht affords while you remain with us." She continued to gaze at me strangely, her eyes, filled with questioning. "Then you—you refuse to tell us our fate?" "Merely because T do not know it. As I said before I am only one man pitted against 20." She pressed her hand over her eyes, as though she would hide from me the sudden horror pictured within their depths. "What are you?" she exclaimed, suddenly, her lips trembling. "Into whose hands have we fallen? I beg that you an.- v i me honestly—why have you stolen this yacht? What real purpose underlies .this terrible outrage?" I made no effort to disguise the deep sympathy I felt for her, yet there was nothing I could answer but must have sounded both harsh and cruel. "The motive animating the men In control is similar to that which rem ders possible most of the desperate deeds of the world—the search after treasure." "Treasure!" she gasped, thoroughly bewildered. "Where do you propose going to search?" "Far south, into the Antarctic." The expression on hrr face was pitiful, yet I stood helpless to comfort. "Merciful God! And you actually mean to bear us with you into that forsaken sea of ice? Oh, surely you jest, you seek to frighten;- you cannot be earnest in such act of "cruelty. Whom can I believe? What can I hope? You have told me you were the captain of this crew of buccaneers, and yet you say yo\i can accomplish nothing with them to forward our release. Then take me to those who can! Let me beg upon my knees for mercy. Surely, surely we are of no value to you in your search after »vr^suve. We are only weak, helpless vw..men. Think of what this must mean to me, and be merciful." There was no. trace of tears in her eyes, but it was the white, agonized face, the unconsciously outspread arms of appeal, that smote me. I felt all my limbs tremble, my lips Uher, as I made swift response. "Lady Darlington, believe me, I have no desire except honestly to serve you. The actual truth is.Ihaveconseated to retaia what is a purely inal command of this ••seel, with no other purpose except that such outward authority yields me some opportunity to assist and protect you. Otherwise-1 would spurn the whole affair and defy these outlaws.til do their worst It was a deplorable accident that brought mo hero and plaeed me ia this situation. Practically X am as muqb a prisoner on board as yourself. Latorrif the opportunity ever be given, I shall relate you my story, and then, perhaps, you will appreciate how perfectly helpless I am to overrule the decision of this vessel's crew. They are mad with the lust of gold, erased by the prospect of suddenly achieving vast wealth through a single bold stroke. Would the tears of a woman influence them now? would the impotent threat of a single, helpless man? They are armed, organised, determined, desperate. "The only thing l e a n do is apparently to ytald to them, trusting thus to persuade them into some measure of mercy; and the only thing you can do is patiently to abide'my efforts to release you from such companionship. I mean to do my best, even to the sacrifice of my life. The very thought of bearing you with us into the fogs and dangers of that storm-lashed ocean Is misery to me. God knows I would do anything possible to spare you such a fate. But I wish you to understand, realize fully, how difficult my own position is. I do not bid you hope; only pray, and, above all, retain your courage. I promise nothing, because I dare venture no pledge. But I beseech you not to break down, not to exhibit open fear. In any event our first effort should be to awaken confidence In the minds of our captors, and arrive at a frank understanding between ourselves. Lady Darlington, will you be guided in this by my judgment?" "Oh, I wish to believe," she Bobbed, only half aloud, "I need some one, some one in whom I feel confidence, in whom I may repose faith. I beg of you not to consider me weak, a nerveless creature, but this situation is intolerable. I will endeavor to do what you ask. I will strive to be brave, helpful, appreciative. I—I think you are what you say. See, I give you my hand in promise." I clasped it Instantly within both my own, bending low above the white fingers, my lips set in firm resolve. I retained it still when I lifted my head, and our glances met. "What is it you first desire of me?" "Breakfast has been prepared, and is now awaiting us in the cabin," I answered, knowing well that some form of action must strengthen her more quickly than any further talk, "and I wish you to join us at the table exactly as though this was an ordinary voyage." "I know the food will choke me. Does Celeste sit with us?" "I believe you would prefer having her In the circumstances. You would not feel quite so much alone." "I should like it; it was most thoughtful upon your part. Shall— shall we be alone at table?" "With the exception of the first officer, who is really the leader on board." It was evident plainly enough that she shrank from the ordeal, the delicate lines hardening about the mouth, the gray eyes eloquent of disinclination. A moment she hesitated, her form swaying as though buffeted by a storm; then she slowly bent her head. "I am at your service, Mr. Stephens." In the main cabin we discovered the table already set and waiting, appearing bright and cheery with a brave display of snowy cloth and glittering silver, the swinging shelf above sdornod by bottjos an* Haas. "Call Mr. Tuttle, Dads," I ordered quietly. "Then*hurry bnckan*sttro. T * " ; CHAPTfcrt"XII. \ '. . t , ' \n Which ! Kndeaver to Assert Ait. Hhority. I was on deck again at noon, and shot the sun, returning below to work out our position. The Sea Queen still held closely to her coarse, almost directly west, and, realizing my helplessness, I forebore asking useless questions. Indeed, I was secretly pleased that Tuttle still held to that point of the compass, for we were now in the direct path of Australian commerce, and hence much more likely to raise a sail at any moment than If we veered farther to the southward. If any such vessel appeared I had determined to pit my strength against the crew, even to the point of physical danger. At one o'clock Dade called the women, and soon the four^ef us wore seated at table again. My lady's ma**: ner weighed upon my spirits, which had been none of the lightest before her appearance. I felt profoundly that the faint influence my previous words had Inspired within her mind had already evaporated; that she now held me as at one with the remainder of the yacht's crew. I arose as they retired from the table, but received no reward of recognition from her averted eyes. Feeling deserted, almost humiliated, I smoked my pipe alone on deck under the lee of the cabin. But it was perfectly useless loitering there. with no duties to perform, and the sea all about bare to the far horizon. Besides, some sailor Instinct told me a storm was brewing yonder to the northward which might keep me upon the bridge all night, so, in preparation for such a possibility, I went below and lay down in my bunk. I waa a long time getting asleep, finally dropping off only to be aroused by the rattling of dishes when Dade arranged the table for the last meal of the day. De Nova was pacing the bridge and emerged from the companion. I could not see the seaman who hailed, the mist held so thick, and his words seemed like a weak echo. "Sail, almost directly ahead, sir." "W'ereaway?" asked De Nova, peering anxiously forward. "I can see nossing. Fo'c'sT tare—you see ze ship?" "NothhV in sight from here, sir." The mate stared up Into the vapor overhead. "Ware was it you see it, you fellow on ze foreyard?" The odd echo of a voice came back out of the sky. "I only caught her through a hole in the fog, sir, one point off the weatherbow." With a swift bound I was up the steps to the bridge and beside the second officer, recklessly determined to assume command. Before he clearly realized my presence I jangled the bells in the engine room. "Hold her steady as she is," I said sternly to the fellow grasping the wheel. De Nova wheeled and faced me, his black eyes full of sudden anger. "Wat ze hell you mean?" he exclaimed, so surprised he stuttered. "1 was officer of se deck." "And I am commanding the yacht, Mr. De Nova," I retorted quickly, pushing back his hand from the signal, "I propose speaking that vessel yonder, and trans-shipping our passengers. Port a little, my man—no, port, you fool!—now hold her so; steady." De Nova grasped my arm, his fingers like steel, but I broke away, pressing in between him and the rail. (TO BE CONTINUED.)

There is no doubt but this is the case and that thousands of dollars are annually sent out of town, that should be spent with the home dealers and those who are paying taxes in the town and county of which we all are a part However, we cannot see the difference between Bending to a "mail order concern" for a pair of shoes or a stove, and a merchant buying government printed envelopes or using stationary furnished by a soap company or other manfact u re r. The home newspaper devotes columns towards helping build up a town and then sees many of his business men using "outside printed stationary" and government printed envelopes. We are not afraid of the competition of the general run of printing concerns, but do not believe it right for the government to enter into competition and establish a store for selling theft goods in every town in the United States and make the people, the printers as well as others, pay not only the salary of the man who sells the goods but the cost of mailing the circular advertisements of their printed matter. ; Manufacturers and dealers have suffared this destructive competition in silence for many years, but of late the Post Office Department has been so agressive and persistant in its efforts to increase the use of printed stamped envelopes that they are forced to make vigorous protest. The department has even repeatedly distributed broadcast through the mails without postage, and by the agency of postmen directly, immense quantities of artfully written and illustrated circulars urging people to use more Goverment stamped envelopes. Reports from various parts of the country indicate that this promotion campaign has been so successful that from 10 to 25 per cent of all business envelopes used are furnished by the Post Office department. We have entered the field against the mail order concerns as we believe it is for the best interest of the village to do so and we have always stood for our home town first of all and the people who help pay our taxes and make it possible for us to have a "home town" and a market for the products of the surrounding farms.

Wouuded at ths battle or Las GuttHluiaa, I was taken to a hospital. There a bullet was taken out of me, and 1 was left to ap«ud what time was ueceaaary for the wound to heal. . The moral ig after the operation I was lyiutf ou my cot reading a newspaper that was belug banded around among the patients when the door of che ward opened, a woman entered and began talking cheerily with the man Bhe first reached. A bunch of flowers was in her band, and before leaving the patient she gave him a few of them. Thus she came on, giving encouraging words, smiles and flowers to the sick and wounded till she reached my cot. Now, I was "born with a silver spoon in my mouth" and accustomed to have anything I wished for. Before the lady came up I had made up my mind that if she were unmarried Bhe should be my wife. She approached me with one of the sweet smiles she bad been scattering broadcast and said: "It must be very hard for you to be lying here "in this hot country. Are you ill or wounded?" "Wouuded." "Don't think about your wound. The doctors say that if one thinks despondently about any part of the body all the impurities go In that direction. Let me give you something to fix your attention upon." She handed me a few of the flowers, for which I thanked her, and she passed me. I asked one of the nurses who she was and was told that she had come to Cuba from the United States for the purpose not of nursing soldiers, but to go about among them encouraging them as I had seen her doing. I asked what part of the United States she had come from, but no one seemed to know. She visited the sick every day, and they were always better for her coming. Indeed, the nurses seemed to think that she cured more men than the doctors. Day after day I watched for her till she came again. As before, she distributed flowers and smiles, the smiles being more highly appreciated than the flowers. She came to our ward about once in four or five days, and the patients, who failed to lenrn her name, spoke of her as the flower lady. One of the nurses asked her to Rive her a name by which to address her, but she declined on the ground that she did not wish it known at home— and the newspaper correspondents would surely publish it—that she was engaged In th work. She preferred to give whatever of comfort she could without having any heroics attached. If anything were needed to complete my reverence for the flower lady this modesty would have been quite sufficient. I dared not by word or even manner reveal the secret of my heart to her. I simply showed my gratitude. The slightest evidence of what burned within me would have caused her to cease her visits, If not to the ward at least to me. And in that case, confined as I was, I could not go to her. Long before the surgeon was wilting to release me 1 got up. dressed myself and returned to duty. My colonel hesitated whether or no to send me back to the hospital, but concluded, being short of officers, to let me remain with the regiment. The day after my return to camp after visiting brigade headquarters he told me that, the genera! having lost one of his aid-decamps by sickness and another by a bulJet, I was to be temporarily detailed for the lighter duties of the staff. The general was but a few years older than myself and made a com panion of me. We became confidential, and I told him of the flower lady, admitted the influence she had exerted over me and that when it were possible I would move heaven and earth to win her for my wife. He asked me if the lady had encouraged me. and I exonorated her from giving me any more attention than the commonest trooper in the ward. There was so much on hand immediately after this that the subject was not again referred to between us. One morning during the fighting about Santiago, just before mounting our horses for what promised to be a hot day's work, the general handed me a sealed envelope. "In cane I oome out of the fight alive today." he said, "give that, back to me. If 1 am killed open It." "Put why. general," 1 naked, stir priso<l. "<ln you take that precaution today especially. We are fighting every day?" "Because," he replied. "I have a feeling that I shall be killed today." His foot was in the stirrup, and he mounted and rode away. During the same afternoon under a hot fire of SpAntoh artillery he ssat.me away with an order. As I turned from^hn something prompted ms^ojs^lrpacg. He had fallen from his horse and lay oo the ground, A tremor passed over him, and be was dead. When the general's body was sent north the flower lady went in ths Mine ship.

Ltd.) ' All the year round, but particularly fJtf In Bummer. IMnard boasts of an extensive cOiony of English families who come'to settle down there for a time on the Breton coast to take the sea hatha and contemplate the beauties- of the ocean. Of course, besides these strangers quantities of French come too, and the children of the two nations unite to amuse themselves, but the English invent the forms of etxiuaement During the season of which I am about to speak, the French de Dufre? lUes, Lariboia and de Pegroles were most intimate with the English Bransons, Maxfords and Vyltons. Into this charmed circle several young men were admitted, among them a young poet just gaining renown, who came every season to Saint Enogat and several officers from the neighboring barracks. Every day some new diversion was planned, such as a fishing party one day, tennis the next, sailing, excursions Into the country round about, and when the weather permitted of no roaming, a tea first at one house and then at another, filled up the season. In order to vary the monotony Petrus, the poet, had suggested a picnic on the beach, a proposition which was accepted with unanimity. Each person invited was to bring some one dish, and it was to be kept a grand secret what it was going to be, the surprise that was to follow its production being the principal attraction of this "al fresco" feast Each housekeeper was racking her brain to think of something out of the ordinary, and the picnic promised some delicious culinary, surprises. The evening before the momentous event, the poet called at the home of the Countess de Dufreville. "1 have come to bid you goodby," said he, "and to tell you, to my great regret, that I shall not be able to join you on the picnic; unfortunately 1 must go away this evening." "That is really too bad," cried the Countess, "Must you really go tonight?" "Yes, Important business Interests call me to Paris." "And you cannot be with us, you who originated the picnic!" "I regret it exceedingly, but It will be impossible for me to be there!" "We had counted on you for a culinary poem." "Ah, I shall furnish my surprise all the same," said the poet, laughing. "But I'm sure you are going to take the most delicious dish, do tell me What it will be." "Oh, I don't dare tell." "Even though I am going away?" "That's true; you'll keep my secret, won't you?" "I swear It" "Well, I am going to take a superb pheasant which my husband sent me." "A pheasant, that's too bad!" cried the poet; "don't take that." "Why not?" "Oh, because I have just come from Madame Laribois and that is what she Is going to take." "Really?" "Alas, yea." "What an annoying coincidence!" "You'll have to change yotrr dish," went On Petrus, "two pheasants would be too much of a good thing, besides to wanting In originality." "Without doubt! What shall I do?" "Would you permit me to advise youf "With pleasure." "Well, subsitute a tiny roast pig for the pheasant." "Good! that's a splendid Idea." "No one else will think of it." 'That seems very probable." "And your dish will, at least, have the merit of not being platltudlnal." "You have saved my life," said the Countess, jokingly," not every poet has so much ingenuity." "You flatter me," answered Petrus modestly. "I thank you a thousand times," cried his hostess. "You are too good, don't mention It." said the poet, bowing himself out of the room. Walking rapidly down the street he soon found himself at the house of Madame Laribois, wife of the rich banker. To her he likewise said he must go away and ended by advising her to take a roast pig. His next visit was to Mrs. Branson, wife of a retired English colonel of the Horse Guards. "As I have to go to Paris to-night. I have come to bid you goodby," began the poet. "Oh," said Mrs. Branson, whose French, If not broken was decidely fraetured, "you are going to leave before the picnic, that Is* very unkind of you.** "But believe me, dear martamty no one can regret it more than L" "Oh. yes, I do." "Thanks, but do tell me, I am all curiosity, what disk are you going to take?" "I intend to take a .plum-pudding." "Oh, don't take that," cried the poet, "Why not, may I aakr $•• "Because that it Ktaf to fe» Madame Laribois* dish.** "Oh, really; what shall titif*" "Will you let »% Mtfcvjr* but of this complication?"* "Oh. would you?** "With the greatest pleasure. You want to take a dish of which no ana else has thought?" "Yes, indeed; that's exactly what I want." "Well, take a little roast pig." "All right, I'll take a pig. and I'm awfully much obliged to -you for the suggestion." The spot chosen for the picnic was six miles from Saint Enogat. and promptly at the appointed hour* all the guests arrived, u o Wot' •ere seated on the gras% whfle t s * servants with great secrecy went to bring the mysterious dish each housekeeper had brought to the lunch. "Now let the feast appear!" called out Lord Vylton, dramatically. Then came a procession of servants —first the butler of the Countess, bearing a roast pig, then Madame Laribois' man carrying a roast pig. then another servant and a pig, then another and another with baby porkers, until everyone's servant had filed by with a tiny roast pig on a platter. A perfect scream of laughter followed a moment of stupefaction. "Nothing to eat but these.horrid little beasts," cried Mrs. Branson. And as if from one man arose a cry of "Oh, if we only had Petrus here!" TELESCOPE FLOATS IN WATER Instrument at Harvard University Observatory One of Largest in World—In Con crete Tank. At the Harvard University Observatory a gigantic telescope floats in a tank of water. It is one of the largest in the world, the reflecting mirror being five feet wide. Mounted on a water-tight cylindrical steel float the telescope swings In a concrete tank full of water, only Blightly larger than the cylinder, which is designed to fit it closely and serve as a pivot for the telescope, instead of having it mounted on a solid base. Machinery at each side holds and guides i t The water bears the weight, and the movements of the telescope are regulated by tiny electric motors; the gigantic mirror can be easily removed and resilvered, when it grows dim, although two tons are indicated when it is placed on the scales. Through this telescope stars of the sixteenth and eighteenth Magnitude are revealed, and it seems to penetrate Into the very abysses of the heavens. While* the instrument Is mounted in the open air, the image is reflected to an eye-piece, in an adjoining building, where the astronomer sits and makes calculations in which millions of miles, are dealt with as indifferently as the simplest SUGQB in ordinary book-keeping. The first look through a great telescope is disappointing, but the novice soon cees that the flat appearance which the heavens present to the naked eye is replaced by a curious concavity; the moon and stars seem to be hung in space rather than spread out on a flat surface. For a moment one feels at th-j telescope like a child watching the swift-moving balls kept in the air by a juggler, and expecting to Bee one of those great hright bodies fall. Then comes the thought—"What keeps them there, apparently suspended in space with absolutely nothing to hold them firm? The explanation of the learned astronomer causes the brain of the layman to whirl, and he sees himself, perhaps for the first time, as a child gathering pebbles on the great shores of the sea of knowledge, or as "an infant crying for the light—and with no language but a cry."—National Magazine.

Expressly designed by a New Jersey man for the purpose of cutting i Sod-Cutting Tool. sod, the implement shown in the illustration greatly expedites that work It resembles a shovel with high, sharp sides, and baa a hinged footpleco which comes down In front and chops out the section of turf' which the shovel digs loose. The shovel is thrust under the sod umtl it can go no further. Then the knife is jammed down and the whole withdrawn with a neat piece of sod. The operatiou consumes only a fraction of the time required to dig out a piece of turf by the old method, and has the additional merit of'bringing the sod out whole and with smooth sides, and not in.the Uagged shape that it sometimes is cut. n the middle of the handle of thti tool Is a catch to engage the knife section and hold it out of the way when it 1B not needed to cut the sod loose.

Chemical or commercial fertilizers are marked by a high degree of availability. In a majority of cases the actual plant food is largely at once soluble in water. For this reason such manures give Immediate results, except when seasons are very abnormal or the tillage very low grade. the farmer in solving these difficulties. It discusses a run-down farm in Illinois and plans six different types of farming that may be substituted for the usual one of corn and oats now practiced, so as to raise the Income all the way from two to five times as much as that commonly received, and at the same time Increase the fertility of the soil.

A bill bats been framed 1B the senate coiiujyitte on military affairs prescribing regulations that shall govern the dismissal of We»t Point cadets for the practice of "'hazing," asd defining In explicit language what is meant by the term itself. It seems that the dictionary definitions have not proved satisfactory either to the senate committee or to the executive heads of the war department, and in lieu of a satisfactory translation of the comprehensive term it becomes necessary for the law givers to frame one for themselves. It is in many cases easier to offer an example than a synonym, says Philadelphia Ledger. Anyone knows "haz'ng" when he sees it, and every thoughtfu- person deplores the brutal disregard of another's feelings that is involved in the reprehensible practice. No definition would be complete that failed to take into consideration the fact that mental anguish is sometimes much more painful than physical sufferings. A mans—or boy's—mind may be hazed not less effectually than his body. In order to "haze" successfully it Is not necessary to use instruments of torture. Some of the most brutal instances of hazing on record have been those In which the imagination of the chosen victim has been ingeniously assailed by the soul-harrowing dread of things that did not happen. The figures showing the gold production of the world for 1909, while not complete, prove that the great output of recent years has been kept up. The actual production during 1908 was $443,434,527. The estimated total for 1909, based on official returns from the leading countries for 11 months, is $457,5G7,2SO, an Increase of $14,132,753, or 3.2 per cent., over the preceding twelvemonth. The Transvaal In South Africa leads off, with $151,900,000 against $145,819,016 in 1008. The United States ranks second with $96,500,- 000 against $94,560,000. With one or two exceptions every country in the list produced more gold last year than in 11)08. Further comparison shows that the gain has been In an almost unbroken ratio during the last 20 years, tor which period there has been a lourtold gain in the world's supply. The figures have economic significance and study of them may serve to explain some of the changes that are being wiougnt in the world's monetary system. The meanness of the short-measure trick Is conspicuously exemplified In the report that consumers in New York city alone are annually cheated out of 14,000,000 quarts of milk for which they pay—and. according to recent evidence, pay exorbitantly—but which they do not receive because the bottles in which the milk is delivered are under full size. The milk sold in this manner goes for the most part to poor persons and furnishes a large proportion of the sustenance of children. Short measure in this Instance therefore means robbing those whose lot is already hard enough and who have to pay heavily for every necessary of life. If there is not a method of reaching the conscienceless persons who perpetrate such despicable frauds certainly the law should remedy the defect. A Ilusslnn bank has been started at Buenos Ayres, the capital of Argentina, and a Une of steamships from St. Petersburg to South America is projected, owing to the large and Increasing trade of Russia with that, country. All the other leading European nations have an important commerce with South America, which is pushed with all the energy possible and with the application of every practicable method, including subsidized steamers, liberal exchange arrangements and' the maintenance of well-stocked agencies in South America, with employes carefully trained for their duties, and with strict regard for South American tastes and desires in the character and quality of goods. Even in this rushing age you can't blame a man for standing still when he is in the storm center of such formidable elements as a street car, h whirl oi automobiles, a part of the flying squadron of motorcycles, trucks, carriages bicycles and express wagons.

Speaking of the present prosperity of the farmer, Assemblyman Warren Pine oi Riverside related a little story at Trenton the other day which would seem to indicate the agriculturist is not always far-seeing with regard to his finances. Some time ago, Mr. Pine said, he was on a train and overheard the conversation of two farmers who were on their way to Trenton. First they talked about the dry spell they had last summer, then the game laws, and finally one of them remarked that he had heard that Josh Hanking had had his annual hog killing. "Yaas," returned the other with a chuckle, "and he, didn't do a gosh dasted thing hut bunko himself good an' plenty." "How did he bunko himself?" queried the first, wonderlngly. "He got a good price fer 'em, didn't h e ? " ' "YaaSj" answered the second, with another gleeful chuckle, "that was ther whole derned trouble. He got such a good price fer 'em thet he sold ther whole bloomin' lot, an' didn't keep none for his own eatin'." "Ye hev kind o" got me, Bill," was the puzzled response of the first. "Ye will hev ter come again." "It is as easy ter see as slippin' off a greased log," said Bill. "He sold .all them hogs at $10 a hundred, an' now he is buyin' them back fer his table In pork chops an' scrapple lots at soniethin' like 20 cents a pound."— Philadelphia Telegraph. THE WORST.

The beef trust of the United States, embracing six great packing companies and 21 packers, several of them multi-millionaires, socially and Industria^ y prominent, were indicted by a grand jury in HudBon county, New Jersey, charged with conspiracy In limiting the supply of meat and poultry. The indictment is- drawn under the laws of New Jersey, which provide, on conviction, a maximum penalty of three years in the penitentiary or a $1,000 fine, or both. The offense is extraditable, which means that practically all the- meat barons of this country must either successfully resist extradition, or come to Jersey City for trial. Justice Harlan Attacked. An attack upon Supreme Court Justice Harlan for activities before a house committee in behalf of a bill to extend government assistance to the George Washington university was made yesterday by President K J. James, of the University of Illinois, before the house committee on agriculture. Declaring that he understo 1 Justice Harlan had been on the pay roll of the university at a salary of from $2,000 to $3,000, Mr. James said: "It seems to be that it is no? quite proper for a justice of the supreme court to urge upon congress, among whose members are many men who practice in bis court and who may be beholden to him for favors, that they should make appropriations for the benefit of a private institution on whose pay roll the justice has been for the better part of a generation." Justice Harlan's son, Dr. R. D. Harlan, defended his father against tne attack, saying: "I am sure that my honored father," he said, "approaching, perhaps, the close of his life at fourscore years, Is safe from any aspersion of his motives in this matter. The people of Washington will hardly believe that he is actuated by any motive other than that of simple justice." Found the Slayer at Last. The story of a father's three-year search In two continents /or the slayer of his daughter was revealed when Kleebrites Hlotis, 20 years old, was arrested, with the aid of a government Immigration inspector. According to the police, the prisoner admitted hla Identity and confessed to killing the girl, Filipict Damaskis, 17 years old, but insisted that the tragedy was accidental. "He loved my daughter," said Peter Damaskis, the slain girl's father, "but my wife did not want him for a sonin- law. Thev quarreled and Hlotis ki'led the girl." The tragedy was enacted at Paleoporion, in Greece, July 21, 1907, according to Damaskis. A celebration was being held following the marriage of a sister of Hiotis. During a dance the Damaskis girl fell dead with a bullet in her neck. She had been dancing with a rival of Hiotts. Hiotis came to America immediately after the shooting and has lived in Chicago for six months. Damaskis pursued him and caused his arrest after a three-year search.

W u r t n l k m j b y Dearborn Mflytfl CMcCfuv *he story onens with the introduction At John Stephens, adventurer, a Masaachuaetts man marooned by authorities at Valparaluo, ,Chlle, Being interested In mining'operations. In Bolivia, he was denounced by Chile as an insurrectionist and as a consequence was hiding. At his hotel his ^attention was attracted by an Englishman. and a young woman. Stephens rescued the young woman from ur drunken officer. He was thanked by her. Admiral of the Peruvian navy confronted Stephens, told him that war had been declared between Chile and Peru and offered him the office of captain. He desired that that night the Esmeralda, a Chilean vessel, should be captured. Stephens accepted the commission. Stephens met a motley crew, to which he_ was aRaig-ned. He gave them final instructions. They boarded the vessel. They successfully' captured the vessel supposed to be the .Esmeralda, through strategy. Capt. Stephens gave directions for the departure of the craft. He entered the cabin and discovered the Knglish woman and her maid. Stephens tpiickly learned the wrong vessel had been captured. It was Lord Darlington's private yacht, the lord's wife and maid being al>oard. He explained the situation to her ladyship. Then First Mate Tuttle laid bare the plot, saying that the Sea Queen had been taken in order to go to the Antarctic circle, Tuttle explained that on a former voyage he had learned that the Donna Isabel was lost in 1753. He had found it fmzen In a huge case of ice on an island and contained much gold. printed la Spanish—not j u t t tike what yon aee to-day, sir, bat t h e letterln' all rough, a* though It bad been cut out o* moo6't *but-t*to feltow fltowjjftf rffcftb* date when It was print**!, 4k' K read 'Seville, 1779/ plain enough.

De Noya and Anderson leaned forward eagerly to look a t it, but Tuttle shoved it along toward me. "Read it v u t loud, sir," he said, his voice trembling.

The change in the man speaking held me breathless; his cant, his usually oily method of utterance had merged into an earnestness full^nf faBcination. "Well, that was about all, sir," his voice sinking hack into commonplace. "In two hours we wore out o' sl»ht, an' feelin' our way through a blindin snow squall. But it wan such a ruin thing, discoverin' them islands out there all uncharted, with that queer ghost ship perchin' on 'em. that 1 wrote down the latitude an' longitude an' the hooker's name in my log-book. We was about three weeks makln' the West Falklands, where I shipped a few more hands, an' then bore away north for home." He drew a plug of tobacco from out his coat-tall pocket, cut oft what he needed, and stowed it awr.y in his cheek. He ran his fingers through his thin hair, and resumed: 'About 18 mouths later I was back with the ol' Betsy in the South Pacific. One night, with the moon shinin', hardly a ripple anywhere, my mate run her nose onto a rock, a couple o* hundred miles south o' Easter island, an' In less than 20 minutes the bark had gone down like a stone. We made Easter island In the boats without much trouble, but it wa'n't so easy to get away. I had six weeks of it before 1 got. a chance, an' then I shipped afore the mast on a sandalwood trader. De, Xova here was mate, an' finally, huntln' goods to peddle among the islanders, we sailed into Valparaiso, an' the most of us shipped out. Well, by that time I wasn't thinkin' very often about that iceship down in the Antar'tlc; 1 was hnstlin' for some sort o' berth to take me back to the States. But one night, down in Rodrigues' back room, where I hung out, I got to talkiu' with a gambler named Francisco—the same smooth duck who introduced himseff as De Castillo to you, sir. He was an educated man, an' seemed to like to hear me talk, an' among other sea 'arrs I happened to tell him this one. seemed mighty Interested, although wasn't neVcr given to seafarin'. asked me a whole pile o' fool ques tlons. Finally he wanted to meet me again alone the next day. "Well, having' nothlu' better to do, I was there when he came, an' ho showed up with a queer-lookin', big, fc$ ol* book, the cover half ripped off, under his^arm. Then he made me tell him that yarn over again, and describe the ship jest exactly as I remembered it. Then, when I'd got through, an' tokl him everything 1 could dig out o' my memory, he opened up that book o' his on the table, an' damme, sir. If he didn't sgow me a picture of that same ol' hooker, plain as life, only everything Was trim an', shipshape on board, with the masts up an' the sails drawtn'. T,he name was printed underneath!, toc-^Donna l«a bel, Cadiz. "That book he showed ni« p a s He Drove His Sheath Knife Half to the H i l t Into the Table. be t r ^ p ; too impossible; too wildly romantic, it must have been a hallucination, an optical illusion born from a mirage of fog and sun In those frozen s e a * Over ^,000,0()0 pesos, locked within the eternal ice l o r 126 years! Over :1,000,000 pesos, guarded by the dead for a century amid that grim desolation of crested sea!

I felt the blood boiling up Through my veins, every extremity tingling with the fever of it. Over 3,000,000 pesos! Merciful mother! it was the ransom of a king; it was the temptation of hell! I know not how I controlled my voice I so as to question calmly, for, even as I first spoke, I noticed how my hands trembled where they rested on the outspread map. "Is that all?" Tuttle nodded his head, uplifting his eyes questioningly to mine. "That's the whole of it, sir. What Jo you think?" "That's more than I know, Mr. Tuttle. Perhaps you dreamed, perhaps Francisco lied. I should have liked to ?ee that book." I bent lower over the chart, staring at the red cross. "What was it you men wanted me for?" "To operate the steamer, sir; the rest of us aboard only understand sallin' vessels," "Yes, of course; but why did you happen to choose a steamer for the job? There were plenty of sailing craft lying in the harbor easier to steal than this yacht." "Very true, but It .happened to be steam power we wanted. Here is about how we figured it, sir. First place, we had to get away quickly out of those portions of t h e sea where they'd be most likely to hunt for us. We're outlaws, an' every ship sallin' under a flag Is an enemy. Well, sir. what chance would a sailin' vessel have In such a chase? We needed somethln' that would show 'em a clean pair o' heels—somethln' that would give 'em a run for their money. That's what this yacht can do; she's pokln'-it now at sixteen." "Yea; you've got the advantage," 1 confessed, "so long as your coal lasts. But you can't put in anywhere for a knew supply—'.vhat the a?" He turned partially about, and winked M De Nova; the fellow grinned back ut him, hut bU'tt in eagerly: "Oh, ue'ic out quite so grcua • « all sat, Mone.

Ze danjaire was not, for in sat ocean we meet nossing but maybe ze whale ship." "You understand what he means, sir?" went on Tuttle, as the Creole paused for breath. "Once well ahead we can fall back on canvas, and save the coal. But we'll need the steam power down there to hold her off an' on by the island while we do the Job. It's a mighty nasty bit o' water, an' a sailm' vessel is apt to c a t pinched in the ice. But with a steamer we can hold her to it, however the wind blows." I looked at the fellow with greater respect. Evidently he had considered every angle of the desperate game he was playing. "Your scheme certainly sounds reasonable enough," I admitted, almost reluctantly. "And the chances are you will get there all right. But suppose you do; suppose you discover this mysterious island; suppose you And there the galleon as you say; suppose you even succeed in getting aboard, and into possession of the treasure—what then?, Don't you know you're bound to be. caught the minute you come out of the Antarctic, into any ocean patrolled by the fleets of the world? You have committed piracy— a crime against the nations— and t h e civilized world will unite to hunt you down." "That's another reason why we had to have a steamer," h e explained, calmly. "You just remarked that they'd be lookin' for the Sea Queen to come back. Well, let "em look; they won't never see her, sir. Once we get that gold under hatches, an' back as far as that rock they call Dougherty Island—an' that's only a run o' maybe 500 miles—I'll engage to make over this here Sea Queen so that her own captain wouldn't know her 50 feet away. "How? I'd strip the engines out o' her, h'lst the stack overboard, tear down the bridge an' wheelhouse* rig her as a barkentine, change every line o' paint fore an' aft, an' then wreck her somewhere along the east Patagonian coast, or maybe the Falklands. It would be nothin* but a bloomin' whaler gone ashore, an' afore anybody finds out different, we'll be scattered to hell an* back." 1 was obliged to acknowledge to myself that it was not an impossible plan. Eliminating the chance of accident or some unusually had luck, .success appeared not only possible, but probable. "Did you think all that out yourself, Mi. Tuttle?" "Well, Francisco suggested considerable, but we did it together." "Where is he? on board?" The mate laughed, his eyes expressive of contempt. "Not much, he hadn't the nerve. He's a schemer all right, but. a blame' coward." "But suppose he gets to talking back there in Valparaiso?" It was big Bill Anderson who answered me, disgusted with our long controversy. "Oh, to hell wid Francisco!" he broke in, gruffly. "It's w a t you're goin' to do we want to know. P'rancisco'll hold his gaff well enough. He expects a hit of the swag, an', besides, I let him know what was comin' to him if he let his tongue wag. I had him right, let me tell ye. An', damme, Mr. Stephens," the bully in him breaking all bounds, "if it ain't comin' the same way to any otnei duffer who goes back on us this trip. That's what talks!" He jerked his sheath-knife from his belt, and, with one fierce lunge, drove it half to the hilt Into t h e table, his brute eyes scowling threateningly into mine. C H A P T E R X I . In Which I Explain to Her Ladyship. I gazed directly into his bullying eyes with a depth of contempt 1 made no slightest effort to disguise. Then I arose deliberately to my feet. "Anderson, pluck that knife out and put it back in your belt." "I'm damned if—" "Do as I say quick, you surly brute," I interrupted, sternly. "Not axtotber word. I'm in command here yet, and you'll obey orders, or I'll make you." He understood I meant it, with his innate cowardice pkiimjr apparent, yet did not yield until Tuule Interfered Wiin & sarcastic laugh, "The captain isn't exactly the sort to be handled in that kind o' way, Bill," he said, smuothly. "He's a deep-water aaiior, nut a land-shark, but I guess he's likely ready ouougb by this time to say what he's willln' to do." The entire situation beemed to unroll before me like a panorama aa I stood there, hastily making—up my mind for action. I was afloat on the high seas, absolutely powerless to resist the set purpose of these men surrounding me, all rendered desperate by greed. Much as I despised Anderson, I comprehended that his threat was no idle one; nor did 1 possess a single comrade on board who would stand at my back. 1 was utterly alone; nay, worse even than alone—with two women dependent upon me. If I outwardly agreed with these rascals, and thus retained semblance of command over them, I might possibly preserve all our lives; I could, at least for the the present, protect the women from insult, perhaps from danger. "Well, Mr. Tuttle," I said, quietly, "I may as well return you my answer one time as another. I don't give a tinker's damn for Anderson's threats, and I don't altogether put much faith in your yarn. But perhaps it's worth taking a chance at. What is to be my authority on board, providing I agree to go with you?" "You're the captain." "Absolutely in command?" He shifted about, appearing a trifle disconcerted under my rapid questioning. "Weil, yes; in everything concernln' the discipline an' sailin' of the yacht," he explained. "There won't be no fuss about that job, sir. But we ain't a regular articled crew, bein' that we're all here on shares in the enterprise, an' so, as regards the purpose of 1 he voyage, it'll h'd\o lo be decided by majority vote. However, that don't need make no trouble." "What is to be my share if you find the treasure?" He thrust his head out of the window nearest him, looking up and down the deck; then he leaned across the table toward me, lowering his voice until it was little more than whisper. "You got one-fifth, sir; the four of us here get one-fifth each; the other fifth is to be divided among the crew. Ain't that fair enough, sir?" "It would appear so; yet there Is still another matter of some importance lo be decided first. There are two women on board; how about l hem?" "What!" The vibrant excitement of his high-pitched nasal voice was echoed by the others. "This steam-yacht we have stolen was the property of the earl of Darlington," I explained. "Lady Darlington and her maid a r e still on board, in iho cabin aft." (TO BE CONTINUED.) Not a Dealer in Flattery ^- A f r k a n Native Gave Straight Answer to Straight Question. The negroes of Africa are simple and direct in speech. It never occurs to them, writes Mr. R. H. Milligan in "The Jungle Folk in Africa." that the purpose of language is to conceal thought, and to commiserate the African for his color is a* waste of sympathy. In illustration of this Mr. Milligan gives an amusing conversation with one of his pupils. One day, when 1 was talking to Bojedi, something In the course of the conversation prompted be to ask him whether he would like to he a white man He replied respectfully but emphatically In the negative. 1 wished to know his reason. He hesitated to tell me; but I was insistent, and at last he replied: "Well, we think we a r e oetter-look Ins." I gasped when I thought of I he vast ly Ill-looking faces I had seen in the jungles, and in apology for mystlf, I said: "But you have not seen ufi in our own country, where there is no malaria, and where we are not yellow and green." He .quietly asked what color we were in our own country, to which I promptly rrplied. "Pink and white." Looking at me steadily for a moment, he remarked: "Mr. Milligan, if I should see you fn your own country I don't believe I should know you."—Youth's Companion. International Peace.

There was no answer, so he called again. Still no reply. He pushed open t h e door, which was not completely shut, and reaching for t h e button, turned on the lights. Then he saw Mabel. She was kneeling at the side of her bed in her nightgown, in the attitude or prayer—the attitude, that is, as to kneeling. But Bhe had raised her head at the interruption and j.aused In her devotions to blaze at him with a face flushed with impatience. "Gee whiz, daddy! Can't a woman say her prayers?" Then she bowed her head again, piously, and daddy, properly rebuked, slipped noiselessly away. ,Me Had No Objection. "We—we want you to marry us," said the blushing young man, indicating a young woman with downcast eyes and smiling face who stood a step behind him. "Come in," said the minister, and he endeavored to ease their embarrassment for a moment; but he soon decided that it was useless to try. "Will you be married with a ring?" he inquired. The young man turned a helpless gaze oa his companion, and then looked at the minister. "If you've got one to spare and it can come out o' the two dollars. I guess she'd like it," he said at last.— National Food Magazine. Sunday School's Want A d . There is a church in Brooklyn that has adopted a novel scheme for enlarging its Sunday school.

The wrong food and drink causes a lot of trouble in this world. To change the food is the first duty of every person that, is ill, particularly from stomach and nervous troubles. As an illustration: A lady in Mo. has, with her husband, been brought around to health again by leaving off coffee and some articles of food that, did not agree with them. They began usiug Postum and Grape-Nuts food. Sh8 s a y s : "For a number of years I suffered with stomach and bowel trouble which kept, getting worse unutil I was very ill most of the time. About four years ago I left off coffee and began taking Postum. My stomach and bowels improved right along, but I was so reduced in flesh and so nervous that the least thing would overcome me. "Then I changed my food and began using Grape-Nuts In addition to Postum. I lived on these two principally for about four months. Day by day I gained in flesh a n d strength until now the nervous trouble has entirely disappeared and I feel that I owe my life and health to Postum and Grape-Nuts. "Husband Is 73 years old and he was troubled for a long time with occasional cramps, and slept badly. Finally I prevailed upon him to leave off cpffea and take Postum. He had stood out for a long time, but after he triet! Postum for a few days he found that he could sleep and that his cramps disappeared. He was satisfied and has never gone back to coffee. "I have a brother in California who has been using Postum for several years; his whole family use it also because they have had such good result! from it." | Look In pkgs. for the little book, "The I <*oad to Wellville."

That the proposed settlement of the $6,000,000 case of the Michigan Central railroad against the state, and the $4,500,000 suit of the state against the railroad, will not meet the approval of the state board of auditors was more than ever indicated when Land Commissioner Huntley Russell said: 'I am not in favor of a private settlement of a public suit, and I think that the courts should decide this matter. "In that way everyone in the state will have a complete record of the affair." It is wnderstood that Governor Warner is in favor of settling the cases, but thinks the road should add another $50,000 to the amount, as the $125,000 does not cover the expense of the attorneys aiding the state in Its defense of the suit. Secretary of State Martimlale has expressed himself against the settlement. The other member of the board, State Treasurer Sleeper, has not stated his position. Genesee Prisoners to Make Roads. According to plans developed at a meeting of the board of supervisors. such townships, villages and cities of Genesee county as desire road improvements may have them without the expenditure of very much money.

The expense of the deputy and the transportation of the prisoners to and from the jail shall be paid out of the highway fund. Now a Skunk Farm. An odorless skunk ranch is planned by Charles Higby, a Walnut Lake farmer. Higby believes that the price of fur will have advanced so much in the next two years that It will >pay to raise furbearing animals for the sake of their pelts. He has already trapped a number of skunks, which he has staked in barrels about, his farm. As soon as he has acquired 20 he plans to establish a sikunk preserve on his farm, which will emhrace six acres. Higby claims to have discovered a preparation which will actually make a skunk odoftess and therefore inoffensive to the most delicate nostrils. Lineman Electrocuted.

Trouble between tbe XTaltf ¢. States and Japan was forecasted by Lealie M. Shaw, former secreta/y of the treasury, in a Washington day speech at Morrlstowa, N. J. "Japan," he declared, "proposes to dominate the Pacific or make it run red. There Je-race hatred between the countries. You go to Japan to Jive and you Hve where you are told v to live. The Japanese come here and want to live where they please. You cannot buy land there for any amount of motiey, but the Japanese want to buy land everywhere. Your children cannot go to school there, but the Japanese man would go to school in thia country with your little girls," Gen. Francis V. Greene, of Buffalo, addressing the Canadian club at St. _ Catharines, said war between Japan and the United States was a good deal more likely than official circles in the United States will admit. '•There has been a tendency to keep the matter under cover aa much as possible," said the general. "Great Britain hag formed an alliance with Japan for offensive and defensive purposes, and, should Japan ever go to war with the United States she could under that agreement call upon Great Britain to help her. "But every consideration would call upon Great Britain to break sucli a treaty, for it is inconceivable to me that Great Britain and the United States should ever go to war again." How You Gain a Living. Uucle $aja is very anxious to know how every person in the United States gains his or her living. In the printed instructions to the enumerators who will begin their work April 15, the census bureau holds that the occupation followed by a child or a woman is just as important, for census purposes, as the occupation of a man. The United States government also holds that the more important occupation is the one from which the person gets the more money. If a person has two occupations, the census man is instructed to record only the more important one. If that cannot be learned then he is to return the one at which the person spends the most time. As an illustration, the enumerators are told to return a man as a "farmer" if he gets most of bis income from farming, although he may also follow the occupation of a clergyman or preacher; but they must return him as a "clergyman" if he gets more of his income from that occupation.

The distress begins in early morning. You feel lame and not refreshed. It's hard to get out of bed. It hurts to stoop to tie your shoes. All day the ache keeps up. Any sudden movement sends sharp twinges through the back. It is torture to stoop or straighten. At night the sufferer retires to toss and twist and groan. Backache is kidney ache—a throbbing, dull aching in the kidneys. Plasters or liniments won't do. _ You must get at the cause, inside. DOAN'S KIDNEY PILLS CURE SICK KIDNEYS TWICE-TOLD TESTIMONY A Cure of Se««re KidMrDiMtM Vwtfted Br T«*t efjTime William M. 8ears, 429 W. Cherry Street, Nevada, Mo., say a: "I w a s convinced of the great value of Doan's Kidney P i l l s through personal experience. F o u r or five months ago I suffered a great deal from a pain across the small of m y back, extending at times Into my llmba and shoulders. When I stooped or did a n y work that brought a strain on the muscles of my back, - m y trouble w a s aggravated. I tried a number of remedies but without success. After a short time I could Bee that they were benefiting me, and the ctmt i n t s of t w o and one-half b o x e s cured me." (Statement given in May, 1909.) RE-ENDORSEMENT On Dec. 3rd, 1B08, Mr. Sears said: "I still have great faith in Doan's Kidney Pills. I feel Justified In reondorsing this remedy as It has done BO m u c h for me." How To Tell When The Kidneys Are Disordered PAINFUL SYMPTOMS B a c k a c h e , sldeache, pains w h e n stooping or lifting, sudden sharp twinges, rheumatic pains, neuralgia, painful, s c a n t y or too frequent urination, dizzy spells, dropsy, URINARY SYMPTOMS Discolored or cloudy urine. Urine t h a t contains sediment. Urine that stains the linen. Painful passages. Blood or shreds in the urine. !Let a bottleful of the morning urine stand for 24 hours. If it s h o w s a cloudy or fleecy settling, or a layer of fine grains, lika brickdust, the kidneys are disordered. NEVER ANY RETURN A CMwUta C a n «f KUacy Tr*»U« aad Dropsy Mrs. L. L. Babers. 1615 Terry St., Houston, Texas, s a y s : "I hold a very high opinion of Doan's Kidney Pills a n d with good reason, for three y e a r s ago they cured me of kidney trouble that had clung to me for several years. There w a s a dropsical swelling of m y feet and limbs in addition to other symptoms of kidney complaint, and although I used various remedies, I w a s not helped until I procured Doan's Kidney Pills. T w o boxes of this preparation cured me and I have never had the slightest return of my trouble. I have recommended Doan's Kidney Pills to "many people who have questioned me about them, and«L<lUK)W of several cases in which they h a v e done the same good work." • Ifttefolftts There A T D T A I C D r C Test Daaa's Kial t U A L r t V l l L MJ Pill* Yaws* Cut out this coupon, mail it to Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N.

IN AGONY WITH ECZEMA "No tongue can tell how I suffered For five years with Itching and bleeding eczema, until I was cured by the Cutlcura Remedies, and I am so grateful I want the world to know, for what helped me will help others. My body and face were covered with sores. One day it would seem to be better, and then break out again with the most terrible pain and itching. I have been sick several times, but never in my life did I experience such awful suffering aa with this eczema. I had made up my mind that death was near at hand, and I longed for that time when I would be at rest. Iliad tried many different doctors and medicines without success, and toy mother brought me the Cuticura Remedies, Insisting that I try them. 1 began to feel better after the first bath with Cuticura Soap, and one application of Cuticura Ointment "I continued with the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment, and have taken four bottles of Cuticura Resolvent, and consider myself well. This was nine years ago and I have had no return of the trouble since. Any person having any doubt about this wonderful oure by the Cuticura Remedies: can write to w? address.

The interest was good and all went off without a "bitch" from atartio finish. Jhe officers engaged the Bnrgeas orcheetra of Hartland to furnish the mnate all through and they made no mistake as they were on band at all times with moat excellent music. The orchestra is composed of Mr. and Mrs. Burgees and son, W. Wake man, Geo. Arthur and -dr. Campbell, all farmers but Mr. Arthur, but the music would rank with any furnished by many a city oicttHtra, The officers are to be congratulated on the results ot their work the past year. They arranged and carried out seven on* day institutes throughout the county and the roundup and came out with a balance of over $4 m the treaanry. They ware given a vote of thanks tar their work.

The yonng people must be interested in farm work if we expect to retain them on the farm Farming is not a bap* basard subject but a live scientific work. It is up to you to make the institutes a suoceas and profitable to ail. Unas. B. Cook of Owoaso gave a talk on Alfalfa and other Legumes. I hope what I say may send some of you home with a better opinion of alfalfa. Do not try to raise too much the firf* time—raise a little but raise the little right and you will soon be a friend of the plant. We consider our alfalfa hay worth $14 or more a ton for feed for cows. Our alfalfa keeps green during the drp months when other feed dry8 up. We raised laat season 7 ton per acre This field has been seeded its fourth year. We always cut the clover as soon as it be gins to show the blossom. In % general way alfalfa is not a good pasture, but as a bay. I would not recommend it for the ailo. Until yonr farm ia inoculated with the bacteria do not try to sow alfalfa with wheat or oats. When alfalfa gets a good start you want to be prepared to do a good job of plowing—a big team, good plow, sharp 8hear, etc.—the roots are some thing fearful to plow. That is where the greatest benefit comes to the farm. The question was discussed by John Worthington who gave some very interesting figures in regard to the feeding ot alfalfa to bis cows. Miss Helen Norton said she was much interested in the growth of alfalfa as aha believed it one of the best tbinga for the land that could be raised as a fertiliser. Mr. Cook would sow the seed early ia Jnne if the season is right. Should be uuist enough to bring the seed at once if not i.» June then in July if wet enough.

Too latest instance of errora la •pairing br * claw qualifying tor adV mittauce to a leading western university to widely interpreted by the prams at an evidence of insufficient training in that important element by academies and high schools. We think a little study of the showing may greatly diminish the force of the this opinion. The university in question la of a else that makes 150 a moderate estimate ot those seeking to qualify In the freshman class. To such a class a list ot 100 words was submitted as a test ot spelling. The list ot errors shows 1 ^ words mlspelled 30 times, or an average of 2½ times to each word, says Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph. But tf there were ISO students spelling 100 words this would indicate a percentage of error to all the words spelled by all of the students of one-tenth of one per cent Of course, this calculation as to the proportion ot students who were weak in spelling is guesswork until we know exactly how many students took the test and how many made more than one error. Put con* aiderlng that the student who was so gifted in that line as to spell "accessible" "axseslbie" probably was the one who spelled "municipal" "munisipple." and "glacier" "glashear," it indicates tha't the percentage ot those who are weak is not over 5 to 10 per cent ot the whole. It is only by showing Interest in the extension of American trade in China —only by taking advantage of opportunities as they arrive, and making opportunities where that may be essayed with reasonable prospect of success— that this country can retain Its relative importance in the great and growing commerce between the middle kingdom and the outside world. The United States has certain advantages at the outset, not the least of which are the friendly relations between the governments of the two nations, which were emphasized bv the return of the American portion of the Indemnity exacted irom the CMnese government after the operations by foreign armies during the Boxer rebellion, says Milwaukee Wisconsin. A large part of that sum the Chinese government will use in seeding Chinese students to American colleges. Frank O. Carpenter, tbe well-known correspondent, who has been studying Chinese conditions, looks upon the presence of Chinese students In this country as Important in two directions. For the next SO years there will at all times be 200 ol China's brightest young men studying in the United States. When they return home they will carry friendly remembrances of America and Americana, which will promote amity between the two nations. Whatever else may be said about the policy pursued In Korea by Japan, which has taken the "hermit nation'* under Its wing, there will be no dissent as to the -Msdom of providing good, that European markets are flooded roads. Such highways are conveniences which Korea has never known until cow, and the fact furnishes one explanation of the slow development of that country. Public roads are among the first essentials to civilisation, ana without them any land, no matter now blessed with natural advantages, must tag behind the procession; A dispatch from Detroit states that a fanner from the northwest went to a firm In that city and ordered 30 automobiles to he shipped at once to friends who hadjrtvcn him their orders when he aUrtedX^tOT the east. The machines, It is said, are all of high grade, some of them be lug of the $5,- 000 class, and the aggregate cost of the lot approximating $100,000 The poyment was almost wholly in cash.

He was believed to have safely recovered from the selsure by Wednesday night, but Thursday he had a relapse which alarmed his friends. His doctor issued a statement that he is afflicted by slight progressiva paralysis, caused by a leakage ot the blood from the calcified arteries into the brain. It was stated that the senator would not be able again, to take his place in the senate this session, but the later news that he was dying came as a shock to all his Washington acquaintances. . Senator Tillman is the most picturesque ot the southern senators. He is known as "Pitchfork" Tillman and his hobby is the taking away of the vote from the negro.

Senator William Alden Smith decided to have an operation for appendicitis Friday afternoon, as soon as arrangements could be made for hospital facilities. The operation will be performed by Dr. Louis Barth, of Grand Rapids, assisted by Dr. T. L. McDonald and Dr. Morse, of Washington. This critical situation aid not grow out of a crisis in the senator's case. On the contrary, he was showing every sign of recovery. Yet Dr. Berth said that there was no assurance fox the future. Dr. Barth emphasised the fact that in that future day when the crisis arose the circumstances might not be favorable to an operation. Eggs Being Imported Into U. 8. For the first time in five years the product of the pauper hen ot Europe is being imported into the United States in competition with the results of home industry. The eggs are shipped by brokers in Hull, England, but are gathered originally from Austria, France and Germany. All the foreign eggs are coated on the outside of the shell with a secret compound of parafflne to preserve them. Buyers can readily distinguish them by this coating. Tbe duty on foreign eggs is 5 cents a dozen and the shipping charges about 4 cents a dozen. Dealers say and the low prices there enable the shippers to make a good profit on their importations.

He loved his wife devotedly, but conquered his alma mater, Denmark, even after she had educated him for the military service out of her poor, stingy pocket. But Kitchener is a machine man only. He loves neither man nor woman. His spear has never known a brother, as its sharp point has hewn asunder the bodies and souls of the sons of women.—Boaton Post. Comparison Shunned. "You didn't cry at all at the matinee." "No," answered the reposeful girl; "I couldn't think of such a thing." . "But the young woman with you wept copiously." "Of course.

The terriblenesa of our situation only became more apparent aa I considered it in the light of the discoveries already made, and in my understanding of the nature of those with whom I waa now associated. Neither Tuttle nor De Nova had ever mistaken the Sea Queen for the warship Esmeralda. It was impossible to conceive that these two trained seamen could have made sucfh an error, or that the men under them could have been so utterly deceived. Tuttle's boat came up directly beneath the bows, with the riding lamps burning brightly and revealing the name; every man aboard must have seen it plainly. Tet what object could have led to so desperate an act of piracy? What part was I destined to play In the final working out of their lawless scheme? The longer I studied over the problem the more thoroughly did I become mystified and confused. What could these men ever hope to accomplish in this lawless fashion? They must be fools or madmen. ThiB was not the age of piracy,; every league of sea was patrolled; every port protected by telegraphic communication. Difficult as my own situation undoubtedly was, apparently helpless among this crew of Bea devils, without a man on board in' whom I could put trust, ijt was rendered a thousand times harder by the presence of those two women. In what way could I protect and serve them? 1 wondered if all the crew forward were In the plot, or were the* leaders alone involved? Could I count on finding a single honest sailor in all that riffraff who would stand by me in revolt? There were others on board—the three seamen and the engineer of the yacht's crew, the Chilean officer captured on shore —but they were prisonera, far more helpless even than myself. The longer I thought the darker grew the prospect, the closer the cords of Fate p r e s s e d about me. There was noth* W(>»sff*« to do except-to face the conapira- % ^ p l s r s boldly, and thus ascertain the p***- w n o l e ^ ^ j glanced upward at the telltale compass overhead—the vessel's course had already been altered; we were now headed4westward, directly out into the broad Pacific I met tuttle at the end of the bridge, clinging to the handrail, his oilskins flapping in the head wind. He never glanced toward me, the cool, studied insolence of the fellow causing me to feel more deeply than ever before his consciousness of power. 'The yacht is several points off her course, ICr. TutUe> I said, sharply, .thought drifted naturally to the worn determined to test him. "May i ask If the change was made by your ordetr *"* He swept one long, arm toward the north, and, following the direction of his finger, 1 dimly perceived a tpiifJ the horisoar - "I thought we had bettor sheer off. "The HeM Veu gay." act of piracy, Every naval vessel of the civilized world will be used to hunt us down. We shall not be Bafe on any sea, nor able to land in any port of the globe. If we resist we ahall be blown out of the water; If captured, our crime means death. Tou have deliberately decoyed me Into this affair for some secret purpose of your own; you have involved me in your crime, and now I insist upon some knowledge of your plan, and an explanation regarding my future authority on board/' "Oh, you are the captain," sneering* ly. "What more can you want?" 'Then, If I am; we will head directly back to Valparaiso." - "Oh, I rather guees not;" and Tuttie's eyes became instantly hard and ugly. "Nevertheless you're captain all right. Just so long as you keep the nose of the old girl pointed the way we want her to go." "That is it, is it?" "Yes, that* oaaetly the ticket." I turned partially aside, glancing toward the wheelman. The fellow was leaning forward over the spokes, evidently deeply interested in our coptro versy and endeavoring to hear all we had to say. Tuttle followed the direction of my eyes, but with apparent indifference. "Oh, they all understand about !t," he remarked, carelessly. "And now I guess maybe It's about time we gave you the main points to chew on. If you'll step down into the charthouse, Mr. Stephens, I'll fetch some things 1 want to ahow you, an' bo along myself In a Jiffy. Then m sptn a yarn that'U cause you to come with us wttlin' enough, or else you're a dam' fool." There was nothing else to do, and I followed him.down the bridge steps to the msih deck, The charthouse had ita Single door opening aty and was a man, flsJoJy bum structure painted a dingy gray, with two narrow windows .on either side, and just enough space within to contain a deal table, locker, and three rude benches. I act down upon one of these, filled and lighted my pipe and waited in silence, gaging Idly at the chart pinned' flat on the table. It was a map of these waters lying off the Chilean coast," and a vessel's course hsd been pricked upon It from Juan Fernandas to Valparaiso. This did not particularly interest me, and my the appeali&g face of that woman awaiting me below. I could noLdeeert her/ I could not consider,Anything except how I might best serpojher interests, beat protect nor from4 the contamination of this bell afloat Three shadows suddenly darjaened the doorway,; and Tuttle, accompanied by De Nova and the big seaman named Bill Anderson, entered. The' second officer nodded to me in genial fashion, his white teeth gleaming, but Anderson slouched surlily past and dropped heavily on a bench, his coarse bulldog features devoid of all expression, his square Jaws munching the tobacco in his cheek. I took notice of his eyes, staring straight out of the window opposite, dull, dog-like, deeply sunken under thatched brows, his skin like brown leather drawn tight, his short red neck, and gnarled hands. Altogether he appeared a repulsive brute, no more easily subdued than a jungle tiger. Tuttle sidled along to the opposite side of the table, upon which he placed a tightly rolled, yellowish- backed paper, evidently a navigating chart. As I watched him curiously, he suddenly pressed the point of bis thumb down upon the paper. - "There's our first port, Mr. Stephens," he announced dogmatically. "There, where you see that red cross." I bent over, startled out of all assumed Indifference aa I studied the position indicated. "Longitude 1109 30' west, and latitude 66° 17' south!" 1 exclaimed, scarcely crediting either, ears or eyes. "Why, good God, man, that is almost upon the antarctic circle!" He nodded, running his long fingers through his thin hair. "Right you are, sir. I guess there won't be no warships a-trailin' after us down in them latitudes; not at this season of the year." "But there's nothing there!" I continued, staring incredulously at the map. "Nothing .but fog and floating ice. There is no land marked within 500 miles." "Just the same there's land there," he retorted, positively, his thin lips pressed together. "I've seen It; two islands, an' that's where the Sea Queen pokes her nose." I could merely sit back, staring at the fellow, who remained leaning both hands on the table, his glinting eyes on my face. "It's a rum yarn, Mr. Stephens, I'll admit," he' said, slowly, his nasal tone much In evidence, "but it's all true, sir, so help me, God! Here's the straight of It, an' you listen quiet till I get done. Then I'll answer your Questions as long as you've got any to ask." an impatiently awaiting my return in the cabin.

Tuttle required a while getting started, pulling aside his dangling bavin' skipped out at Vomers Island, where we put in after fresh water. Anyway, It. waa about there that a storm hit us front out the nor'eaat. I gueseit must have been ope end of a hurricane. I never aee%othln' fiercer, even in those seas. There was no thin' to do but turn tail an' scud, the ropes and canvas being so stiff with ice. Well, we battened down, an' took chances, but for a while I thought every wave was gain' to do for the ol' booker en* send us all to Davy Jones'.

Tuttle was leaning forward now, his elbows on the table. His lean, solemn countenance had lost its listlessness, and I also noticed the eager interest imprinted on the faces of his two comrades. "We was Jest roundln' the point," he went on aa soon as he took a long breath, "the Betsy keelin' over so's her deck waa half awash, an' with no more than maybe 100 yards o' clear water to the good. Back o' an ugly lookin* headland the coast seemed to fall away sudden into a sort o' cove, which was piled high with great ice hummocks, behind which the ice wall rose up sheer almost to the top o' the rocks. There was a sorter shelf along the edge of it, an' a-settin' up there in full view was the damndest lookin' vessel ever I saw in 50 years o* seafarln'. So help me God, sir, I saw it with my own eyes, as plain as I'm lookin' at you! It was h'lstod up all o' 20 feet above the lower ice-field, an' sort o' careened over where it was froze fast so aa to ahow the decks amidships clear to the inner rail. You remember them ships what Columbus sailed in? Well, this hooker was that kind, only a blame' sight bigger. I guessed her at 8C0 or 980 ton, but she had the same sort o' build—a big high stern, with aa after-cabin clear acrost it, the waist sunk down in a curve, an' the fo'castle raised up like a house, with blunt bows, an' a monster bowsprit forkin' straight up into the air. The whole outfit was so cased with ice an' glittered so in the sun that It seemed like a part o' the Ice cliff, which had took that queer shape from thawin* an' freesin'. Damme if I didn't think it waa somethin' like that for a minute—a blame' freak o' nature —but when I grabbed the glasses, an* got a good look through them, it waa a ship all right, the kind you read about in the books what navigated these waters a hundred or more years ago. I was still a-etarin' at it with all my eyes when we raised the stern, which stood h'isted up a bit higher than the bow, an' where the steady dash of the waves didn't break clean over it, an' the sun fell Just right BO I read the hooker's name.

It is not correct to say that "cemetery" means the "city of the dead." The word is from the Greek "Koimeterion," meaning sleeping place, not the place of the dead. There is nothingin the thinking that it was originally intended to convey the idea that the departed were really dead any more than there is in the old Hebrew term for cemetery—"Bethaim"—the house of the living. ^ r jxr-njMifir>rLTi.rij-tj*i)" -11-^1^^1^ * ~ * * * * * • ^ - ^ ^ . ^ . ^ - - - ^ ^ . ^ ^ ^ , - » » ^ » » » • • • Kitty Wanted to be Alone Story Well lltustratee the Workings of the Childish Mind.

Out limbs off smoothly and leave BO stub. Wounds of any site should be painted with wbitelead immediately. Take out all doad limbs. Trim tbe trees so they will be low for spraying and gather* ing trait. Cultivation is one ol tbe principal things. It keeps tbe ground in good condition, keeps down the weed*, assists in increasing moisture, etc. If you began plowing with tbe young orchard it can be fcepr up but if au old orchard, you will have' to plow shallow. The main thing is to keep tbe top ol tbe ground in a clean shape cultivating or harrowing until the last of July or August. There is nothing better for mulching than barnyard manure—one load to 4 or 5 trees—tbe apples will pay tbe cost. One of the troubles of our shipping apples is that there are too many dishonest shippers—the top of the barrel is better than tbe bottom. Grade your apples and have them true to grade. Tbe kind of apples would depend upon the market whether local or commercial, M. L. Chamberlain—I am from Al< legan county and that is considered an apple county. I can see no reason why Livingston county cannot be equal if not better than Allegan. Tou certainly bave tbe right kind of land here at $40 to $50 per acre while in Allegan it costs from $150 to $900 per acre. There is good money in raising good fruit. Mr. White on question box. Do not know tbe pear apple but tbe sbeepnose is a good keeper, I have fonnd that spies kept welt. The spy is a tender apple and must be picked and handled very carefully or they will rot. To a seek no farther is uot recommended as a keeper. The man who does tbe packing whether it be tbe farmer or the buyer, is to blame for tLe packing of poor apple? but ot course we all have to suffer for the faults of others. Had butter ought to be graded. Mr. Cook.— We surely shuuld have our butter graded as well as possible the same as Ibe creamery. FertilKters should be distributed about the entire extremities ot tbe tree; not close to tbe trunk. Tbe Wagner apple will bear in from 4 to 5 years bnt is not so strong j a tree.

Tbe working ol this was fully explaiood hot bai boon published so many times that it is not necessary tor us to give it here. Any farmer can find out all about this kind cf treatment by sending to tbe Agricultural college at Lansing for the bulletins on the subject, especially No. 254. Tbi6 is perhaps one of tbe best published for the work in the general orchard. H. C. Heed led in tbe discussion. I have practiced spraying our orchard for 20 years and know that it pays. I am of tbe opinion that certain conditions make it seem as it it did not pay. However we know that it pays to be thorough. Co operation of Farmers, W, W. McDowell. Co-operation means unit ed work. When we try to get together we find only 30 or 40 farmers will meet while within a day or two 10,000 of them will attend a oircus. The farmer does all the work, tarnishes all the seed, takes the risks, etc., and then has nothing to say in regard to the price—that is fixed by "the other fe) low.' We see the same thing in the milk and butter problem, tbe potatoe crop and even tbe meat we raise. Tbe producer gets 85 per cent while the middle nan gets the 65 per cent and has nothing at stake bnt the handling of tbe product. EVENING SESSION Fireside studies by Cuas. B.

Tbe fertility of tba sand daues ot western uiicbigan has been made to brinir forth bountiful crops where once was a barren waste of drifting sands. One of tb« best ways to help unlock tbase seemingly worn out or run down farms is tbe raising of stosk for there ii» nothing better for soil fertility thin live stock manure. Yon are finding that oat in to a great extent in ibis cooqtv. I am a firm believer in tbe rotation of crops as tbe. growth of one plant is condneive to tbe other. 1 am positive we can keep up the productivenesfi ot oar farm by the abore methods and never use a pound of commercial fertilizer and I believe this is tbe best plan f o r m to follow. Tcere are ftood fertilizers on tbe market but I think stock raising tbe best.; In tbe discussion that followed, Mr. Ciok said be was much in favor of tbe commercial fertilizers that contained phosphorus acid especially. I never spent a dollar tor commercial that I did not tbink I received $4 or 95 in returns. FRIDAY AFTKBNOOl* This session opened with tbe ques tion box and was quite interesting. Tbe main question was in regard to silos and Mr. Baven said he bad been in and inspected probably as many or more than any man in tbe state and in ins opinion tbe cement silo rightly constructed, was the best and cheapest in tbe end. They must be plastered inside with a thin coat of cement and then whitewashed with cement. Ibis makes them tight. Silage and Feeds for Summer Use by Chas. B. Cook. The increase in tbe price of lands and crops brings u*> to a uoint where it h necessary for ns to use silage as a summer feed instead of pasturing. Again we have to refer to alfalfa as it is used in many cases as a summer teed by cu'ting it as needed. It keeps green tbe entire season and proves valuable. A small fie'd cf sweet corn is a fine thing-to start rows off in tbe fall before the new silo is opened. , Would raise that [ with qood earing qualities. | Tbe question of silos and silage drew out considerable discussion bat the JO jority however were in favor of.silage as a feed tbe year arauod especially for milcb cows. Hog Raising for Profit, Mr. Raven. I cannot see bow a man can raise bogs at the present prices without profit. It does not matter so much what the breed as it does tbe quality. I believe; it is mo9t profitable to raise two litters ( of pigs eacb year—one in tbe winter as we usually have plenty of milk at that season. Believe in cooking mnch' of tbe feed and feeding it warm in winter especially. For fattening 1 believe a c o s s between two thorough breds will prove tbe most profitable, "but never use one of tbese as a breeder— tbey are no good.

W. Morrow, of the Michigan AnU-Saiooa leagve, in hit managemettt of the Jackson county local option campaign, ha* created a sensation. All the bitterness that marked the local option campaign, which was won by the "drys" by only M Yotes, has been attrred up afreeh and there are charges and counter charges. The "dry" leaders are alleging that Morrow's private detectives have been dealing with both sides and have laid a scheme to trap the "wets." The 4>dry" leaders, however, cannot explain Morrow's letter asking E. J. Brower to ship "dry" voters Into Jackson county. The "wets" assert that not only did the Anti-Saloon league try to colonise Illegal voters In Jackson county, but also actually did prevent bona fide Jackson voters from returning to Jackson to exercise their franchise. "Nearly 100 properly qualified and registered voters of Jackson were working in Flint at the time of the local option election last spring," said Aid. Stephen H. Carroll. "The Bulck automobile factory was formerly located in Jackson and a few months prior to the election the Bulck plant was moved to Flint and a number of the best workingmen were taken to Flint, but their families remained in Jackson. They were, therefore, bona fide voters in Jackson county. "The 'wets' secured the names of a number of these voters and requested them to come back to their home town to vote. They all agreed to do so. "A few days before the election an employe of the Antj-Saloon league went to Flint and interviewed these men. What methods he used to induce them to remain away from their home town and refrain from casting their ballots can beat be explained. "Some of the voters came back despite the methods nspd to persuade them to stay away, and while they were challenged by, the Anti-Saloon league workers in the polling booths, not one of them was denied the right to vote, because each was able to demonstrate conclusively that he was a bona fide voter in Jackson county." Prosecetlng Attorney Van Zile, of Wayne county, .has followed closely all developments in the controversy of the "Wets'* vs. the "Drys," and rela% tive to the letter which. Superlnten dent George W. Morrow, of the Anti- Saloon league admits having written to K J.• BrtereT, of ^Sranfl Rapids, i& quiring whether he could make up a trade whereby a hundred or two hundred men of Grand Rapids or Detroit could be rounded up for colonization in Jackson, he says: "There is no reason for any Judicial Interference. "No crime has been committed. "There was no overt act by Superintendent Morrow."" * JEchlrlliffiuXiwture Detroit** Q*n Mills. Proceedings that may cut 1,000 saloons from the number now operating in Detroit have been begun by the Anti- Saloon league. Thursday a petition was filed In the supreme court to force Attorney General Bird to begin proceedings against the Detroit common council to enjoin the council from issuing saloon licenses to over l,40o present holders on the ground that under the Warner-Cramton law the. licenses are illegally held. In Detroit last April there were 1,588 saloons. The population of Detroit under the last ceusus was 28*5,704. State Fair Oats Is Made Latsr. It having been found that the holding of the annual state fair in Detroit during the week starting Sept. 6 would conflict with other big fairs held at that time, the business com* mittee of the local organisation met Monday and decided to postpone the opening until Sept. 19. It was also figured that the later date would be better for the exhibition ef Michigan crops, which are not in the best of . shape so early in the month. The fair directors will at once start to make an effort to increase the present bond issue from $1,000,000 to $2,000,- 000 to eorer the cost of erecting new administration, agriculture and automobile buildings. Eighteen of the 23 directors voted in favor of holding the fair during the weeft tfVsept. 19' to 24. " ' ' " ] < • • ' ' • • • « . . . 1 » * ; . * • .

A Scotch preacher bad in his con* gregation an old woman who was deaf. In order to hear the sermon each Sunday, this old lady would seat herself at the foot of the pulpit stairs. One day the sermon was about Jonah, and the preacher became very rhetorical. "And when the sailors threw Jonah overboard," he said, "a big fish swallowed him up. Was it a shark that got *im? Nay, my brethren, it was ne'er a Bhark. Was it a swordflsh that got him? Nay—" "It was a whale," whispered the old lady excitedly. • "Hush, Biddie," said *he preacher. indignantly.

The first time I ran for tbe^general assembly one of the prominent citizens of my community told me that he was going to vote against me because when I was a shaver I threw a rotten apple at his horse.

Think of it! And yet-such stuff has thrown the scales where throneB have been at Btake.—From a speech at Norwich by former Gov. George P. McLean of Connecticut SHE QUIT But It Was a Hard Pull. It is hard to believe that coffee will put a person in such a condition as it did an Ohio woman. She tells her own story: "I did not believe coffee caused my trouble, and frequently said I liked it so well I would not, and could not quit drinking it, but I was a miserable sufferer from heart trouble and nervous prostration for four years. "I was scarcely able to be around, had no energy and did not care for any* thing. Was emaciated and had a constant pain around my heart until I thought I could not endure it. For months I never went to bed excepting to get up in the morning. 1 felt as though I was liable to die any time. "Frequently I had nervous chills and the least excitement would drive sleep away, and any little noise would upset me terribly. I was gradually getting worse until finally one time it came over me and I asked myself what's the}, use of being sick all the time buying medicine so that I could „ dulge myself in coffee? "So I thought I would see if I could quit drinking coffee and got some Postum to help me quit I made it strictly according to directions and I want to tell you, that change was the greatest step in my life. It was easy to quit coffee because I had the Postum which I now like better than the old coffee. "One by one the old troubles left until now I am in splendid health, nerves steady, heart alt right and the pain all gone. Never have any more nervous chills, don't take any medicine, can do all ray housework, and have done a great deal beside." Read "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs. "There's a Re'-ion."

PEANUT As everyone knows, C. W. Post of Battle Creek, Michigan, 1B not only a maker of breakfast foods, but be is a strong individual who believes that the trades-unions are a menace to the liberty of the country. Believing this, and being a "naturalborn'* scrapper for the right, as he sees it, Post, for several years past, has been engaged in a ceaseless warfare against "The Labor Trust,'' as he likes to call it. Not being able to secure free and untrammeled expression of his opinions on this subject through the regular reading pages of the newspapers he has bought advertising space for this purpose, Just as he Is accustomed to for the telling of his Postum "story," and he has thus spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in denouncing trades-unionism. As a result of Post's activities the people now know a whole lot about these organizations: how they are honeycombed with graft, how they obstruct the development of legitimate business, curtail labor's output, hold up manufacturers, graft upon their own membership, and rob the public. Naturally Poet is hated by the tradesunionists, and intensely. He employs no union labor, so they can not. call out hiB men, and he defies their efforts at boycotting hiB products. The latest means of "getting" Post is the widespread publication of the story that a car which was recently wrecked in transmission was found to be loaded with empty peanut shells, which were being shipped from the south to Post's establishment at Battle Creek. This canard probably originated with President John Fitzgerald of the Chicago Federation of Labor, who, it is said, stated it publicly, as truth. Post comes back and gives Fitzgerald the lie direct. He denounces Fitzgerald's statement as a deliberate falsehood, an underhanded and cowardly attempt to injure his business, having not the slightest basis in fact. As aucU an effort it must be regarded. It is significant that this statement about "the peanut shells" is being given wide newspaper publicity. In the "patent inside" of an eastern country paper I find it, and the Inference naturally is that labor-unionltes are insidiously spreading this lie. An institution (or a man) which will resort to moral intimidation and to physical force, that will destroy machinery and burn buildings, that will maim and kill if necessary to effect its ends, naturally would not hesitate to spread falsehood for the same purposes. We admire Post While we have no enmity toward labor unions, so long as they are conducted in an honest, "llveand- let-live" kind of a way, we have had enough of the tarred end of the stick to sympathize thoroughly with what he is trying to do. He deserves support A man like Post can not be killed, even "With lies. They are a boomerang, every time. Again, we know, tor hasn't this weapon, every weapon that could be thought of, been used (and not simply by labor unions) to put us out of business, too?

The difference between the playbouse in which we see u drama of Branson Eloward's today and the playhouse in which Sheridan's comedies were originally acted is greuter than the difference between Sheridan's Drur.v Lane and the house for which Congreve wrote and in which Retter ton acted. And that restoration playhouse was very unlike the Elizabethan theater for which Sluikespenro wrote and in which Burbage acted. Even more apparent is the difference between the theater of DionysiLIS at Athens and the Roman theater at Orangt?. These theaters are sharply distinguished from one another by their size, by their shape, by their methods of illumination, by the absence or presence of real scenery and by the arrangement of the seats for the spectators, and as we study these successive changes we are confirmed in the conviction that these physical conditions must have exerted a powerful Influence upon the dramatists who followed one another down the centuries.—Brander Matthews In Century. mrm MXDBBttMMJL eQQQslJw Tail has February.
