Business interests outside the state are instructing their agents to "drop Peabody," while resident officials of the Mine Owners' association In Cripple Creek are still clinging to the slogan: "Peabody or nobody." • The mining camps are rapidly filling with members of tbe Western Federation of Miners, and predictions are freely made that disorder is bound to '©COUT at- Victor, Telluride, Cripple reek and Ouray soon after Peabody"s inauguration, should it take place.

Y., tHvaa O rr*si,oic<lent XeU' I'«>#-.': State A PERMANENT INSTITUTION. I ft'" ^: 11 v * I ~* V a s t , P r e s e n t • a m i F u t u r e o f t h e U r a n f « - l t HHN t o m e t o Star* The Iowa Fanner, izt au editorial entitled "The Living (.range," gives "an interesting review of the past, present and future of the Order in that state. It says: •» Our older readers are all familiar with the history of the grange—Its origin in the seventies and mighty protest.against some evils under which farmers were suffering, its permanent influence on legislation, as shown by the phrases in common use— fcranger legislation, granger railroads, etc.—and of the wrecking of the grange In so many western states because its leaders and the people generally paid more .attention to the Immediate work of correcting, present evils than to the permanent work of developing the social and intellectual side of the farmer's life. It may be noted in passing that not only Aid the grange establish in the highest court of the land the right of the people to regulate railroads, but out of the grange grew most of the co-operative movements that have been so effective in recent years. In Iowa, for example, the mutual insurance companies grew for the most part out of the grange; to a less extent co-operative creameries, co-operative •tores and factories.- This we believe to be true In all other states. It naturally would be; When peopte learn -to ktvow each other by meeting monthly or semimonthly for social enjoyment, for comparison of views on public matters or the Study of agricultural questions, partisan animosities are broken' down, and they begin to understand each other and arc thus able to co-operate for «very good work. In the west comparatively few of the original granges remain, but these are centers of agricultural life wherever we find them. A second generation Is now coming up under grange influences, and we do not believe there is one of these living- granges anywhere existing which l a s not had a marked effect for the better In every department of agricultural life. Happy is the community that has a grange hall and regular meetings, where young and old, rich and poor, men and women, boys and girls, meet all together and thus come to know each other and become unified In sentiment and In aim. In this respect the grange meets a long felt want, and it would-be a blessed thing for the entire western country if |he grange or some other organisation covering the same, field, and conducted on the same plan or 'similar lines were organised. Of all the farm organizations that have been organized in the last thirty years the grange is the only one that remains. The farmers' alliance movement sprang up Uke Jonah's gourd in a night, spread over fee country like wildfire, lived JI life of Intense activity for a few years and then passed away. It had a great deal to do with political, parties, and its spirit to some exlent remains, Itrat-tt-dM not-tewfethe real intellectual and social life of the farmer. So with the Farmers' Mutual Benefit.association, and so it will be with all similar associations which are organised in time of some specific object and then pass away as soon as,that object has been accomplished or has' clearly failed of accdrhpTishrnent. The grange-" goes down deeper; it takes hold of the social, intellectual and business life of the community, and when once established and held true to Us original purpose It is there, Orcaalaattoa a €)«*>* Tata*-. It is the duty of any person in uuy Industry or profession to become associated with others la the same industry or profession. If organisation Is good for capita] and labor it 1« good for the farmer. The grange is of benefit in a financial way in the opportunities offered for co-operation. There are three billions of fire insurance which costs less tbau half of what la charged by the stock companies. There la also financial co-operation In the matter of purchasing supplies for the farm, and the grange awakens interest in legislative matters, particularly such aa relate to the farmer*' interest—Governor Bachelder.

One crab was seen by the naturalist Elsig iu"1878 to pluck off soophyles, those plantlike animal colonies which grow on shells and i •tones, and to fix them on the spines and hairs of its shell. A still deeper romance of defensive tactics Is to be found in the case of certain hermit crabs. They live in the castoff shells of whelks and crawl about, house on back. One claw is bTJrgor than the other, and this is an adaptive feature, fop wheu the crab retires into its house the bltftfer claw Is tucked across the mouth of the shell to bar the way against a possible intruder. More curious still is the habit of one species which tolls along with a sea anemone fixed to his shell, like Sindbad carrying the Old Man of the ^ a . Great care i s taken of this anemone. It Is fed by the crab, and if the. latter has to seek a new shell by reason of his growth, he tenderly shifts his tenant off the old abode and places him on the new one. no time to dress. ~h*t i • * * 4E§SJL in ttnie," said the doctor.

Dean Hole's Wit. On one occasion Dean Hole, the well known English clergyman, with Mrs. Hole, landed at Dover, much exhausted, after a rough crossing of the English channel. While waiting for the train the dean pored over the railway regulations. "Ah," he said, addressing the station inspector, "it's one consolation after such a crossing and this tiresome wait that we go back at half price." "I don't understand, sir," was the official's reply. "There is no special reduction." "Oh, yes, there 1B," said the dean. "I've just been reading all your notices, and you state that you take returned empties at much reduced rate." Once1 when the dean was playing whist for threepenny points he ap Caaald.

The Distant Stars. Speaking roughly, we have reason, from the data so far available, to believe that the stars of the Milky Way are situated at a distance between 100,000,000 and 200,000,000 times the i . _ j ^ _ distance-from the sun. At distances Professor Hilton lays l««a than this it Vteems likely that the atars are distributed through space with some approach to uniformity. We may state as a general conclusion indicated by several methods of making the estimate that nearly all the stars which we can see with our telescopes are contained within a sphere not likely to be much more than 200,000,00() times the distance of the sun. Granting that all tbe stars we can aee are contained within ~thls limit, may there not be any number of stars I k e K a e w , AT cWtain old-lady aiways-knew everything before anybody else.

Kelley, the founder of the order of Patrons of Husbandry, is given below, taken from the forthcoming 'History of the Grange," by the editor of this department. It was immediately fol lowing a session of the national grange In Washington, at which time it was decided to send Secretary Kelley out to do the first missionary work for the new Order, to visit the different Htntos and interest the farmers In the work of organization. : >• l'he time for missionary work had eerne. Some one must go out Into the harvest field, and gather the harvest these enthusiastic founders of the Or der believed to be ready for the gath •ring, so ou an afternooti in April. 1868, Secretary Kelley started for Har rlsburg. He relates an amusing interview with William Saunders, the treas urer of the national grange.

I distinctly recall a "-conversation- with Frank It. Stockton regarding "The Lady or the Tiger?" that Illustrates this point. "Never %'ns I so near starvation since I began to write as after tbe publication of • l lie Lady or the Tiger?'" said Mr. Stockton. "For nearly two years everything I offered for sule-waa-seat back with tbe curt explanation that It did not compare with that story. 'The Lady Or the Tiger?' was made a standard by which everything was judged. Prior to Its. publication I had trouble-in selling my matter, and that very story \u\d been offered to every publisher in New Tork before It was accepted."

His high-seated buggy, always gray with hardened mud, was worn with many years of service, and the box dropped down on the right side with the great weight of the old practitioner. At the, end of the wheel track stood the brown little home with its vine-mantled porch. For some time alter the doctor had entered the house he sat motionless in the small front room, which had a shut-in smell and was ever kept pain -fttHy=in™order. idencejnat^riend. the children's little beds and her faded blue skirt was heard swishing softly up the stairs her step seemed much lighter and much sprightlier than it had been. By and by the little woman came softly to the door to announce in a low tone, so quiet and subdued: "Doctor, he's awake now." You could easily see what the visit meant to the sick man, for his lusterless eye was turned eagerly to the door and he made an effort to reach out his great white hand to his old - f l - it bad not lately had the careof the exacting housewife was when he removed his new shoes. As they fell thumping to the floor each of them raised-from the rag carpet a faint puff of dust. These shoes, by the way, nad been a source of copious profanity during the drive. "They pinch; they hurt. "Well, then, why did he want to sell 'eta to me?" But now the bell-like tinkle of the ice in a pitcher was heard in the kitchen. Before Mrs. Dale had time Xo enter the room he was calmly reading a newspaper. "Well, girl," he asked as the State Journal sank with a crinkling sound to his knees, "what you got there?" For answer she gave him a mistcoated glass, and a few drops went spattering down upon the carpet. "This is just right; no sugar—not au iota—just exactly right. And you're one of those women, Fern Dale, -who never have too much care and trouble to think of this sort of thing," he said. "Of course there are plenty *•! familiesTnaT" aTe-gtaTT-ta-see-me—families, too. that pay their bills. Byt—well, It's uot the money that really pays a pill peddler; an old peddler, anyhow. And you know that. Now, don't, you, Fern?" The young woman nodded. "Well, then," he added, still more deliberately, "you musn't ever put off sending for me, my girl, when you think I'm needed here." "But he wouldn't let rae send when I wanted to," the wife answered, and he saw that there were tears in her eyes. "So I didn't dare send till he v/as took down in bed. Said he wasn't sick at all—just wasn't feelin' right good." "Ey thunder, that husband of yours is a brick! That's what he is; he's a brick!'' Then he went on to inform her how long ago his first trifling account with that husband had been settled in full and 'how that husband ot "Well, doctor?" he asked, like one not having the courage to use a more direct question to inquire about the state of his health. But the doctor paid no heed. With his slipper heels flip-flopping at every step he hummed in a preoccupied way. He pushed up the shade. There had passed but a little while after that before the invalid was announcing with dreary triumph in his voice as his wife leaned over him to make the bed more tidy: "I told you so, Fern; all your worryin' for nothin'.. If they was any dantioa * • * .again taken .up, and as before the talk journeyed wide of all things concerning illness and trouble. It was not long before the sick man's face put on a smile and once Joe even laughed. But the doctor knew the end could not be far away. Before long the tow monotone x)f his voice suddenly stopped. There was a quick, dry coughone that shook the bed springs—just one, and at the same time a convulsive clasping of the thin white hands upon the shrunken chest. Then there was stillness. But the click of the snipping scissors among the flowers did not pause. It was loud; every sound seemed loud, even to the drowsy tinkle of the sheep bell, which came faint from down in the meadow. It was some time before the doctor left the house. But finally he went out bareheaded into the garden, and he was humming again, only this time the sound was not so calm as it had been when he entered the sickroom, and when a pair of eager blue eye^ sought his face the tune fluttered a little. He cleared his voice twice before: he spoke. "Fern," he aakeHf, "what do you call these flowers?" "I don't know. I mean they're roses. What Is it, doctor? Did you want me?" "Of course they're roses; I knew that, but what kiqd of roses are they?" "Didn't you want me for something, doctor?" "No, Fern, no; I didn't want you for anything. Joe's gone to sleep. What kind of roses did you say these were?" "Why, they're old-fashioned roses." Then the cutting of the flowers was continued and by and by the doctor said to her: "You've had a good deal of trouble these eight years of married life, haxenXJOHftJSX=SirX2II__ _ _ _ "I would have had trouble," she answered, "if it hadn't been for you." And he knew she was referring to/the time when death had threatened the little ones. "And now," she added, "if it wasn't for you—" "No, no, Fern, not this time, I'm afraid. As I have told you before, it may be In a month, or it may be—" The tears began to come now, and her big friend laid his hand gently upon her shoulder. They were standing at the great rosebush near the cottage and the doctor slowly reached up to the window and plucked the white morning glory. As he offered it to her she looked up once more into his face. But she did not cry. She took that rough, dark hand of his in both her own. "Yes.- I know what you mean. He's asleep in there. He's gone from me and I can't ever see him any more. But you were with him and you made him forget, and he wasn't troubled about me or about the children, or about anything at all.

It has been a fact of common knowledge for a Jong time that, as ordinarily stored, hen dung loses a large part of its nitrogen. Because of the small number of hens kept by most farmers, little attention has been given to means of preventing these losses. The Maine Agricultural Experiment Station has made a careful, study of the effects of chemicals upon the loss of nitrogen, and reached the following conclusions.

The swine Industry of the United States is a feature of resources that flgufes high in the agricultural wealth of our country* To the hog, more than any other mfluence, are we indebted for the finely improved farms and beautiful cities that have, as by magic, spread out over the vast area of agricultural lands from Ohio in the east to the Missouri valley in the west. The civilizing influence of the corn crop has changed the millions of acres of wild prairie lands to the fertile, cultivated fields, rich with the clovers, grasses and improved crops of modern ' agriculture. Without the hog this great district of agricultural lands, lying in the center, of what is known as the corn belt, could never have attained its present distinction of wealth and business reputation. As a factor in wealth production the hog is justly entitled to the distinction of "the pioneer" among our meat-producing animals. The American hog has fastened - his hold so firmly, not only upon our ' own people, but upon those of almost every country on the globe, that the industry of, swine raising is of necessity made as progressive in its increase of production as the increase of population demanding pork production.— Nebraska Farmer. GREAT LIVE STOCK INDUSTRY. THE PULS THAT CURE RHEUMATISM Mrs. Henry Story, of No. 532 Muskingdum Ave*, Zanesville, Ohio, say si "My husband suffered from rheumatism so Value of Animals in the United State* Is in the Billions. - Very- few people have any idea of the magnitude of the live stock industry of 4&e United States. If shown, by official government count, that the horses, mules, cattle, hogs, sheep and goats in the United States number more than 220,000,000 head, and that their value is, according to the same authority, .more than 13,200,000,000 (see twelfth census of the United States), the figures alone would have very little attraction or meaning to the majority of readers. But when told, in addition thereto, that these animals would make a solid column of more than eighty-nine abreast -reaching from San Francisco to Boston, or, if placed in single file, a solid procession that would reach nearly ten times around the earth; and, further, that their value exceeds the total combined value of all the corn, wheat and other cereals, potatoes,-hay, cotton, sugar, molasses, tobacco, lumber, wool, coal, petroleum, silver, gold and precious stones, iron, copper, lead, zinc and other metals produced annually in the whole country, then perhaps some adequate conception may be formed concerning the magnitude and importance of the live stock industry_;_ of_:>he United States.—Chicago Tribune.

SOLO »Y ALL DHUQQISTS. Science of Onychomancy. The latest science is, undoubtedly, onychomancy, or the science of reading the fortune from the finger nails, According to the onychomancist, the tiny white specks which come and go on the nails are not the result of chance, but from them can be read "the past, present and future." These innocent looking specks are almost as difficult to- decipher as the lines on the palm from which the palmist tells us so much. Their size, shape and position are all taken into account. The specks nearest the tip of the finger relate to the past, those in the center to the present and those on the half moon to the future. As in palmistry, the right hand has to be read in. conjunction with the left. But a feature which gives this-science atr advantage over all its rivals is that these fateful specks are constantly coming and going. Consequently a number of readings at different times must be given to reach an accurate one. The revival of the* science, for it is really not a recent one, is traced to a foreign source. The consort of a Continental sovereign came across an onychomancist at a well known watering place and was so delighted at his aptitude in expounding the unknown that she insisted that he initiate a member of her suite in all its mysteries. He did so, for a large consideration, and the pastime has been continued at the Continental court.

Letters of congratulation and commendation testifying to the merits of Peruna as a catarrh remedy are pouring in from every State of the Union. Dr. Hartman is receiving hundreds of such letters daily. -All classes write these letters, from the highest to the lowest. The outdoor laborer, the indoor artisan, the clerk, the editor, the statesman, the preacher—all agree that Peruna is the catarrh remedy of the age. The stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh as their greatest enemy, are especially enthusiastic in their praise and testimony. Any man who wishes perfect health must be entirely free from catarrh. Catarrh is well-nigh universal; almost omnipresent. Peruna is the only absolute safeguard known. A cold is the beginning of is to cheat catarrh of its victims. Peruna not only cures catarrh, but prevents it. Every household should be supplied with "this great remedy for coughs, colds and so forth. The Ex-Governor of Oregon is an ardent admirer of Peruna.

Using Peruna to promptly cure colds, he protects his family against other ailments. This is exactly what every other family in the United States should do— keep Peruna in the house. Use it for coughs, colds, la grippe and other will be no other ailments in the house. Such families shouLd provide themselves with a copy of Dr. Hartman's, free book, entitled, "Chronic Catarrh."'

One of the most notable features of '•x)e trade of the United States with South America Is Its comparative fixity. During the last thirty yearn there has been an increase of only '> per cent In trade, and the sales of 1890 were about the same as those of 1902. Compared, with the trade of 1873, America's 4902 trade with the world outside of South America has ir.ore than .doubled. To the 40,UOO,000 people in South America t h e yearly sales atnOunt to less than $40,000,00,0. Really Impregnable Fortresses.

I I Win What I Care Not For. *'An' it please you, Lord Felton," •aid I, "to vary the sameness of things—all pleasurable excitement being with i d u aad your f r i e n d s - suppose^ w^/ehaiige the dice?" "Do you mean to imply?" he began. "I imply nothing bufc»wb*t you wish implied," I interrupted. "I have still a small estate in Essex county-—why not add that, also, to yonr winnings?" And I pointed to the gold stacked at hU elbow. "As.yoir will," he replied, with a shrug of the shoulders which set his long wig a-bobbing. "Gil," I called to my man, who leaned across the board opposite us, "throw me the dice you have." Lord Felton was as tenacious as a miser, and fought for each piece of gold, for now the conditions were reversed, as 1 supposed they wouW be upon the change of dice, yet he would not, could not, stop; the gambling fever gripped him hard. I won and won until there seemed nothing else to win. "Nothing else?" said I. My Lord Felton had many resources. "I will stake the hand of Lady Mary Felton against all," he hissed, as he flung his hand out upon the table, while his fingers twitched. The all indicated was the wealth worth a l'esserfcing* srealm prted TjeforeHSSTeT^ His words produced a momentary hush of astonishment even atnong his followers. A hat belonging to someone was pushed from the table. The brooch fastening its plume struck_the_ floor with a slight noise, But it sounded as loud to our strained ears as an explosion. We started, though they who knew him ought to have been surprised at nothing he might either kay or do. "You will not say it is too little?" be said. Then his eyes like a basilisk's swept the lowering faces of the showed upon their person how furiously they .had GOJQUBL jpwl against worth's bushes, bramble* and dirt. One fellow aat with a broken arm in a sling dicing with hi* l«ft hand, while Harcourt Nym had hit coat on with the wrong side faced put. Whether to keep it from soilure (there was no need), or to propitiate that Janusfaced damsel Fortune (there was great need), no one knew, but himself. Others had turned the lace back from their hande> aad here and there a wig lay tossed off in the heat and excitement of the game. The room where we sat was long and narrow. The narrow part waa broadened somewhat by many dla> mond-shaped panes of glass set cff ppsite each other. At the far end a fire of logs burned. The smoke from the pipes of the men floated there to be sucked up by its red mouth. Lord Felton had only joined us upon our reaching the Lodge. Hunting was. too strenuous an exercise for him, while feasting and gaming were t h e elixir of his life. He had chosen me, a stranger, for his partner in the evening's sport. Why I should have been so signalized I knew not, unless it was that the Londoners familiar with his reputation, and more than one having good cause, shunned him, or, perhaps he had heard that the coffers of the house of Long Haut were ""Trot depleted of their treasures^ At first I had looked at him with curiosity. He was small as a woman and as slender. Everything about him was minute -except his w i g ~ a n ..enormous affair, it hung about his shoulders in many ringlets, and made his head seem out of all proportion to his body. His features were- clearcut as a cameo. His eyes were of that cold grey from which all the blue was washed, but they held you. He was the dandy and the exquisite. His ways were caressing and his manner quite irresistible. He had one pecu- - -M ^H sH "What I have won I shall know how to keep," said I. men. Some cowered and shrank back; others assumed an indifference quite ai variance with their previous agitation Sir Raoul Dw'ght glowered back at him. He had dared take their idol and treat it as clay, and in that he had dared much. Recovering from my surprise, I murnuircti something trite enough about being most happy to risk all and more for the happiness of obtaining the lady's hand. A menial brought him a quill and an ink horn." He wrote an acknowledgment elaborately, and sprinkled it with sand. Ho. dallied doing it; as though he gloated over the de^'d, and cared anyone to take umbraga either at it or him. When he had the paper to his satisfaction h? placed it in the center of the table. ? pushed the gold 'beside it. The tyght from innumerable candles shonfr'dowu upon the long table black with age; it passed through the bottles filled with liquor, and made splashes of red upon the dark grain of the wood; it played upon the gold that scintillated and sparkled like the light in a woman's eye. The hunting feast was long Qver. The board had been cleared, and the men gruuyed about it were in characteristic attitudes, gaming. It was the usual ending to a day's sport. Gil -nrH Trr*"'*** ****** nWT frv%m Trong Haut for t h e hunt at the bidding of Master Arnold, and as was expected, wc stayed for the. gaming. Not that expectations or contumelious lips would have held us, had we not been as fond of a game of chance as anyone of the gay bloods'from London town who made up the party. Tt hart beeq a day of rare sport Time had riot been wasted in our de-^ sire to kill, and a$ aj-esult many deer and boars lay low that yesterday ton4>nr'od through the forest All liarity. While- his face never lacked repose as though he habitually masked his thoughts lest you read them, in his fingers he s&ve them full vent; his weaknesses were exposed. Hands small and soft and white— hands with long flexile fingers—hands perpetually in motion. 'Twas said that he could cheat, cajole, or win one's fortune from one as easily as tho turning of a hand: over, and the matter of it was that one never quite understood how he had accomplished it, being at the time so carried av.a'y by his fascinations. Of all the dissipated men of the day, he was considered the most dangerous. But this I learned afterwards. He began bv winning—that should have taught him caution. How slight a thing will sometimes change the course of events! A* menial in filling the glass of my neighbor jogged my elbow. I looked up as he mumbled his excuses, and caught the warning s e n t . t o me by Gil. Then I let my eyes roam casually from face to face. I read upon them what made me pull myself together with a jerk and throw off the spell I had been under; the spell of a limpid tongue dlscoursing the gay doings of a fashionable world of which I then knew little, These gay sparks from London, and especially this old dissolute one would bleed me; they thought me a novice. It was laughable! I knew cards and dice as I knew my sword. Many a night Gil and I had made of gaming a pastime. It had been his part in my education,- and he had not found-, me a dullard. I saw with .narrowed «ye« the pile, of gold—mine—-which my~Lord Fel•.', ton had stacked at his right; I sawd the men for the moat part given up their play to wa^ch a deeper game— cupidity in their eyair watting * n x - * • . • • . . • • • %, • - • f - ';• * ' • * V J M taiBlyJfyta # m »t the poo* dup*— and I realised that unknown to my* self I had occupied the center of the stage. It was then when I saw the supercilious looks ' and widening of lips, which owners cared not to hide that the- blood of an ancestor who had once staked his life on a throw of a dice, thrust itself to the front driving back the more cautious blood of the Hadleys. It was then that I had proposed the change of dice. Now I must plead that the passion of gaming was' strong upon me ajso. I cared no more for Lord- Felton's daughter Mary than foi* any village maid. She was no more to me. True, I had heard of her—who had not? Of her beauty, her conquests, the duels fought for love of her—and more. Although she had been in London but a few years she had s e t all hearts agog; feminine ones with envy, masculine ones with desire. It was said that she possessed all the fascination of her father without his dissoluteness— a rare thing* in King^Charles' court. When the men recovered from the momentary consternation into which Lord Felton's words had thrown them, and my lord himself had drained his goblet of wine to perhaps still his fluttering fingers, we resumed the play, watched by all eyes. Prayers and curses were upon bearded, clean shaven, and lips that had never known a razor, but unuttered. I read in their faces while they scorned Lord Felton and cursed him to the lowest depths, they yet prayed that he might win—they that were not wont to pray. His was the first throw and he won. The next was mine—we were even. All now depended upon the last spinning of the dice. He took them up and rattled them, still with a rythmical movement, and threw them out iNvesrnsi ^ Bitctrlcity Kills Insects. The Elektrotechnische Zettschrift (Berlin) announces that It has receiv-1 ed from M. Lokuzefcwski the descrip- > tlpn of an apparatus for the destruction of Insects, of their larvae, and of caterpillars, the apparatus having recently been presented to the Odessa' Technical society, Under a wagon vdrawn by horses or run by an alcohol motor there 'is placed a small dynamo. | This dynamo is moved by a system ol' gearing placed on the. axle of the ve- j hide, the dynamo being connected with an Induction coil in front of welch is placed a Wehnelt interrupter. -She negative pole of the induction coll is connected with the Iron' framework of the vehicle, that is con* \ nected with a series of metallic brooms placed behind-and under the wagon. These brooms may be moved in a vertical direction, and as they give forth a large shower of sparks, any insect within the range of the broom is destroyed. The wag6h should follow immediately behind the plow, as the latter, by opening the earth, brings to light insects and larvae. Feeder for Stock. One of the disagreeable tasks in relation to the care of horses, cows or other cattle is the necessity of arising early and'supplying them with feed. This is especially true with milk dealers, bakers and many others who are compelled to get -up an hour or two before serving their route in order to feed their horses.

His face went twhite. There was excuse; the stakes .had been great. "Ttuly a marvel, and so young," he managed to say, for the great control lie knew so well how to exercise held him; "the King himself would be outdone." His friends and kinsmen crowded about him. An explosive, "Damme" came from a mouth, and it was as a clap of thunder which preludes a storm. Chairs were tipped out of the way and swords were drawn.

Shall this fellow for a few happy throws of dice be let to take with an indifferent hand what we have looked with yearning eyes toward? Shall it be permitted? Never! I say never!" I waited until their clamoring cries had ceased, then said: "That should have been thought of before the game; it is rather too late, methinks." "You shall not leave here with that paper in your possession," said Sir Raoul Dwight. "Shall, and, shall not, are words which take little breath in the saying, and they come rather too trippingly from your lips, Sir Raoul Dwight," I answered him.

The key which winds the alarm apparatus is connected to a spring-pressed bolt which is mounted in the wall of the chute and designed to support the hinged door when the same is weighted down with food. As the clock runs down the cord withdraws the bolt, and when the proper time is reached the dpor is released and the food falls down to the manger. After the door is relieved of its weight the spring will cause it to resume its normal po« sition. This would also be very useful in large establishments. The patentees are John R. Ray and William E.

Would Exterminate Rata. Unremitting warfare against rats is"" advocated by Sir James Crichton! Browne, who' says that people nowadays are Hying under sanitary conditions which will seem as shocking and wiong to their descendants 200 years hence as conditions that obtained two centuries ago appear now. In advocating a crusade against rats, as the great carriers of disease, Sir James suggests a new form of relaxation. "We have with us," he says, "lots of gilded youths whose time hanga heavy on their hands, and who might vary their amusements by rat-catching, which must be quite as exciting and elevating as pigeon shooting.

A human pice which makes its car wheels and napkins out of paper, says Gerald Stanley Lee, in the .tysjropolitan Magazine, Its street pavements out of glass, Its railway ties out of old shoes, which draws food out of air, which winds up operas on spools, which has itsrtvay with oceans, and plays chess with the enipty ether that is over the sea—which makes clouds speak with tongues, which lights railway trains with pin wheels aud which makes its cars go by stopping them and heats its furnaces with s m o k e - It would bevvery strange If a race like' this could not find some way/of at least managing Its own planet—and (heaped with snowdrifts it be)— some way of warming it—of melting [off a place to live on. A corporation was formed down In New Jersey^ the other day to light a city by the tossing oMfce waves. We are always getting some new grasp—giving some new sudden almost humorous stretch to matter. We keep nature fairly smiling at herself. One can hardly tell when one hears of half the new things now-a-days—actual facts— whether to laugh or cry, or form a stock company or break out into sing ing. No one would quite dare to say that a thousand years from now we will not have found some other use for moonHght than for love affairs and to haul tides with. We will- be manufacturing moon yet, out of compressed starlight, and heating houses with it. It will be peddled about the stieets like milk, from door to door, in cases and bottles. Some Words That Qo Not Rhyme. Bulb has .no rhyme. Culm, cusp, recumb, gulf, month, doth, amongst are other rhvmglgss words having the sound of u as in but. Few patrician words in the language have this vowel sound, so commonplace and without dignity; hence poets turn to it only for blood, flood and a few similar turbulent monosyllables. They f-use i r o f t e n , however, in forcing the accent from the antepenultimate syllable to the final, where its unpleasant sound Is concealed by the softened stress.

"I went into a large clothing store the other day,", said 8wellman. "to find out something about men's fash- Ions for the horse show. Naturally, I sought the head of the department. " 'Bless you,' he said, 'I don't know. I don't dress fn that class myself. But I have a clerk who can tell you all about it. Boy, ask Mr. Blank to please step this way/ "In a moment I was approached by one of the greatest swells I ever saw in my life, f i e wore one of the new English long, Joese morning coats of a light brown color, a white waistcoat and trousers the tint of a robin's egg. To my surprise he was not at all affected in his manner. Clothes were his hobby, that's all. He talked of fashions as enthusiastically as a man familiar with racing would talk of horses. He knew all about the styles in London and Paris. He understood^ precisely what was wasted for the horse show. As I came away I said to the head of the department: '' 'That young man seems to be well \ up in his business.' " 'He's a womjer/ was the reply. 'When he Isn't .Waiting on customers he is reading fashion magazines and looking at tailors' plates. Last summer he had a khaki suit brought over from England by one of our buyers that for shade and texture could not be duplicated in New York. I couldn't afford to dress as he does, if I wanted to." A Teacher's Testimony. Hinton, Ky., Nov. 28.—(Special.)— it has long been claimed-that Diabetes is incurable, but Mr. E. J. Thompson, teacher in. the Hinton school, has pleasing evidence to the contrary. -Mr-. -Thompson had Diabetes, He 4< Dodd's Kidney Pills and is cured. In a statement he makes regarding his cure Mr. Thompson says:. "1 was troubled with my kidneys for_j3Qore than two years and was treated by two of the best'doctors in this part of the state. They claimed I had Diabetes and there was little to be done for me. Then I started to use Dodd's Kidney Pills and what ^-they did for mo was wonderful.—-it is entirely owing' to Dodd's Kidney Pills that I am now enjoying good health." Many doctors still maintain that Diabetes is incurable. But Diabetes is a kidney disease, and the kidney disease that Dodd's Kidney Pills will not cure has yet to be discovered. An Astonishing Feat. The knowledge possessed by Mrs. Leonard, champion money-counter of the t r e a s i t r ^ e f the details of the various notes that have been issued by the government during the last jyrif-century is so absoluteIy_accurat£ that all money suspected of" bemg" counterfeit Is submitted for her opinion. Not long ago she- declared that a certain note which passed through her hands was counterfeit. Others in her department declared It genuine. Even those at the head of the department thought she _ w a s wrong. But she would cot reverse her judgment. The note was sent to the Bureau of Printing and Engraving, and the expert there said It was genuine. Still she held to her opinion. The note was laid aside, and later a description of it was discovered among the records of counterfeits in another department. —Everybody's Magazine. «The Other Side." ife4ecamp to try him—He- Fa+nbow in the s k y !

Fine Collected After Forty Year*. A comrade writing from the Na tlonal Military Home In Indiana^ in- <lose8 an item clipped from a local -newspaper that illustrates the relentlessness of the United States government in collecting money due,.be the amount ever so small. It appears that the comrade enlisted when a mere boy of 16, and having an appetite for roast sucklings, he foraged and ' a t e a small pig at a time and place when and where the orders were very *ttingent against fbraglng: "He was . discovered and brought before a cou-t martial and fined $10. Several months -elapsed before the paymaster reached the regiment, and the fine was overlooked. Recently he put in a claim lor commutation of ciothing due to him t o the amount of $15.57. The account •was audited and found to be correct, and the bill was paid—less the overlooked fine of $10 adjudged against 3»lm more than forty years ago. PHyed Possum for Life. -"Speaking of assaults," said the major, "when Col. Dan McCook's brigade made the assault June 27, 1864i on the 'dead angle' at Kenesaw Mountain, Capt. Jo Major, company A, Eightysixth Illinois volunteer infantry, while --ctose-to ^the-€onfederate works, was —knocked down by something ^thrown over the works by a rebel. When he regained consciousness he found himself on the flat of his back just outside the rebel breastworks, among many dead and wounded. Our troops had fallen back about eighty feet, and by hugging the ground closely were partly protected by the brow of the hill. Spades were trumps, and by hardrdfg^ Sing with spades, bayonets and canteen sides a new line was soon established which protected the men. "In the meantime Capt. Major returned to consciousness and soon realized that he must play himself for apart nr h n w n n l d hft foroeri t o f.rawl over the rebel works a prisoner, as others who showed signs of life were forced to do. On the other hand retreat was impossible. Aboift this time a venturesome rebel climbed over the works, and crawling around among the dead and wounded came to the captain, relieving him of his revolver, sword, haversack, canteen, pocketbook and hat. Noticing the captain was breathing, the rebel turned a little water into his mouth, but although nearly dying of thirst the Yank, was afraid to swallow, and permitted the coveted fluid to run out of his mouth and go to waste .in Mother uartn. The Johnny crawled away and left him, supposing, of course, there would soon be another dead Yank. "It was now about 10 o'clock in the forenoon, and for the balance of that hot day Capt. Major lay on the flat of- • his back, with the merciless rays of the sun pouring down into his bare face, not daring even to scare the flies from his mouth or nose, from which blood was oozing as a. result of the blow in the stomach. Nor could he shift his body to gain a mbre comfortable position. He could hear the bang! bang! of the Yankee guns, and the crack of Col. Fahnestock's Henry rifle in the hands of Fife Ma>>r Weber, who had got a good position behind a chestnut tree and was doing all he could to keep the rebel heads below their head logs. When the rebels replied the amok a wonld almost puff tn TJapL Ma .-v nue he sprang over works aaa men, causing surprise and joy.

She decided to leave her home in Vermont and go to Washington inde pendently. Securing letters, from Rev G. H. Hepworth, pastor of of the Unity, Boatinfluential persons, she started Jor the capital. Arriving there she called upon Sur geon General Hammond, who told hei that it would be of no Use to go tc Miss Dix, but that if any surgeon in charge of a hospital would give her a position as a nurse, he would indorse her name, which would place e church her on record as a regularly enrolled army nurse. Contrary to advice, she did go tc Miss Dix, who safd to her: "Child. I shall not say no, though it Is entire ly against my rules to take any one sc young. I believe your heart is in the work, and that-I can trust you.—t-shal send my ambulance to-morow morning to take you to Columbian hospital, there to remain in quarters till I send you to Annapolis. In the meantime you will be under training of Miss Burghardt." This wascTn-f864. Shortly after her admission to the Columbian hospital, Mrs. Hazen was stationed in charge of Miss Fur? hardt's ward, the latter having been granted a furlough. She remained there until the hospital closed, June 27, 1865. During the summer of '64 the hospital was filled with wounded men from the Wilder-. ness, from Spottsylvania and from Cold Harbor, Mrs. Hazen wrote many letters home to the friends of wounded men, and she prepared many bodies that were sent home for burial. She never failed to place beside the heart of each silent soldier a bouquet of the florist's choicest flowers. Mrs.. Hazen always on Memorial day' decorates the grave of Miss Dix in Mt Auburn.

Having heard Wine of Cardui praised by several of my| friends, I sent for a bottle and was certainly very pleased with the results. Within three days m y appetite returned and my stomach troubled me no more. I could digest my food without difficulty and the nervousness gradually diminished. Nature performed her functions without difficulty and I am once more a happy and well woman. OLIVE JOSEPH, Tma.

They seemed satisfied that my lord would find a way of relieving me of my newly and most unexpectedly acquired treasure—the promise of a bride—betore I should have time to use it "Ere many days shall have passed," I replied. MYou will be welcome," he said. "I shall bring that which shall win me a welcome," I returned. "If you still have it," muttered Raoul Dwight "Do you threaten?" I sneered. His reply was a shrug of the shoulder, and as he, the only one, still whipped his sword up and down; Master) Arnold cried: . ^ _ ^Yon are__myyt_guests, gentlemen^ seek some other place to do youF brawling." "You were not wont to be so par^ ticular, Master Arnold," said Raoul Dwight with a snarl. "It was in this very room, if I remember rightly—" "Raoul Dwight!" Master Arnold's \ voice rang out sharply.

Qualms; of hunger began to cry aloud, and that, together with the heat, made me drowsy. I minded not my steps, only one wish stirred within me: that I were home with a trenchon of beef before me such as old Nancd prepared. I com* mitted the midges, burs and other nuisances to a thousand deaths—so captious does a mau become when hunger assails him. On a sudden there swooped through the air, with the swiftness of light* ning, a peregrin-falcon. She alighted upon my shoulder. Her long curved talons tore the linen of my shirt and cut deep furrows in my flesh. I staggered from the unexpectedness of the attack. She hung upon me, over the basket on my arm, and in her mouth was the fish she had purloined. I jerked my knife from my belt, not being in the humor for such pleasantry. I was too late, ready to strike, she was off No, she had not escaped me yet, for with a swiftness equal to her own, I threw my knife after her. It struck her in the neck. She fell to the ground not twenty paces from me, plunging, reeling, emitting a gurgling cry. When the bird had flowft exultfofely forth and my knife after her, I had heard the lilt of a laugh, which had ended in a plaintive cry. The deed was of the moment without a thought Had I wished it otherwise, as I soon did, I could not have helped it. like the among its ivory sued petal*.

"If there is a falcon within twenty leagues, Madame, it is yours," I answered, "to take the place of yonder bird." "Do yon think I would accept aught at your hands?" she cried. 'Ere I had time to reason with her she was joined with a serving maid, to whom she turned and began to tell of the bird's mishappening.

H '.&, ^ ¾ *** C , . * $ • There before me stood a very"madcap of a child, or womanl morn now began to show through the slats of the closed shutters, and orders were given for the saddling of horses. The servants blew out the last flarings of the candles and opened the windows. The air came rushing in sweet with the smell of earthly things, cutting its way through the dense smSfcajS|en atmosphere. -The money still lay on the table dull and sordid in the light of day. "Gil," said J, "see that my Lord Felton has back what, was his before we leaye—" I touched the gold* and notes with the tip of my sword—"except this." With a light laugh I took up the promise of marriage and dropped it carelessly into my pocket, even as one might take an uncut diamond of which he knows not the value, and puts it heedlessly away. "And he is welcome to the rest foe its sake." "You are to be congratulated," said Harcourt Nym. "If you succeed with that hit of paper; I fear me it is too perishable." CHAPTER II. I looked at my arm where the claws of the falcon had rjpped the skin so that the blood flowed freely. I turned over the dead thing on the ground with my foot, and wondered whence it had come. I again heard that little cry. i raised my eyes. There before rae in the narrow pathway stood a very madcap of a child or woman! I could not tell which. Her hair was piled on top of her exquisite head in some foreign fashion, and her dress was down to her tiny slippered feet. She was breathless from running, and held her dress bunched in her hands. Laces and frills made a perfect cascade about her ankles % "Oh! What have you done?" she cried. She dropped in a heap of farderals beside the dead bird and began calling It all manner of pretty names.' "You lout!" she stormed and faced me. She was one who in her rage and grief did not stop to pick her words with a squeamishness. "You have killed my falcon! How dared you—how dared you?" A moment before the place had have some fun at my expense. She had fowled her bird after a .trout, not reckoning with either man or knife. And, the result of their harmless bit of frolicsomeness, he was a—dead pet When they had reviled me enough, or so I thought, for their contemptuousness made my ears to tingle, I said in the same speech and in as gracious a manner as i could .command. "I would recompense you, Madame, to the half of .my estate—believe, me, it is yours.'* "Recompense! Estate! You!" she sneered. "A hut on my Lord's land with one wee pig is more like to be your estate." She threw back her head and laughed, while she took me in~?rom my head to my foot "Do you hear that, &urse Moffett!" she continued. "Recompense! 'To the half of my estate.'" She mimicked me to a nioety and then went off into throes of laughter, joined by her nurse. I waited with a grave face until her merriment had Subsided. I aaw she was a maid of mood? and fancies; for now she sat quite down upon the ground, unmindful of everything except her dead pet, and tears fell from her eyes in big drops. "What a hell of witchcraft "lies in the small orb of one particular tear," said WllllamT Sfaakespgarer-a writer of plays and sometimes actor of the same, and I aver'that he never spoke truer words. He is dead these many years, but his speeches are remembered, and plays still to oe seen at the theaters in London. "Do not, I beg "of you, do r.ot," I said as I dropped on my knees beside her, and stretched out ray hands to take the dead thing from her. The old dame as if desirous of keeping before her mistress my share in the miserable business made the air murky with her execrations. —Inwardly I curood myself in being so ready to cut and to slash. Perhaps the lady read some of my contrition in my face, perhaps she had changed her mind as to my condition in life; certainly she looked at me with a little kindliness and there were questions written on her face. She let me take the bird and place it on the sward, and wipe her gown where the gore had ruined it. So much grace I had—no mora Too soon she remembered that I had done her an injury. Her eyes now flashed like steel. Her bow-shaped mouth drew itself Into its haughtiest curves.

"And a very good hour," Wellington had replied. "I did so when I was at school. Well, I have ordered an early dinner."

Right Food Makes Happy Children Because They are Healthy. Sometimes milk does not agree with children or adults. The same' thing is true of other articles of food. What agrees with one sometimes does not agree with others. But food can be so prepared that It will agree with the weakest stomach. As an illustration—anyone, no matter how weak the stomach, can eat, relish and digest a nice hot cu£ of Postum coffee with a spoonful* or two of Grape-Nuts poured in, and such a combination contains nourishment to carry one a number of hours, for almost every particle of it will be digested and taken up by the system and oe made use of. A lady writes from the land of the* Magnolia and the mocking bird waydown in Alabama and says: "I was led to drink Postum .hecause coffee gave me sour stomach and made me nervous. Again Postum was recommended by two well known physicians for my children, and I feel especially grateful for the benefit derived." "Milk does not agree with either child, so to the eldest, aged four and one^half years, I give Postum wiui plenty of sweet cream. It agrees wltfrd her splendidly, regulating her bowe^T perfectly although she is of a const!* pa ted habit.

AN. INVITING PROSPECT. Will Canada in the next quarter of a century take the place of the United States as the great whgaj exporting section bi. the w^tern^he'tilepliere? Everything ^ointa, thaT^ay\ In the opinion of experts the United States has reached high water mark as a wheat exporting country. The Increasing population ovef there haa reached the point when home consumption is becoming annually greater in prupurtluu than the increase in wheat production. As a matter cf fact wheat production is decreasing over there as the land becomes more valuable and by reason of the deuiand for other lorms of produce for noma consumption. It is said that. the wheat crop this year is not more than 70 per cent, of the crop or i»uj, and much below the crops of J.9W2 and 1903,—Tt is estimated that t'hls year the United States surplus for export will not be over 100,000,000, which is less than any year since.. 1878 with two exceptions. Not only is this the esse, hut a*considerable quantity ol the best Canadian wheat is being imported into Minnesota and also Chicago. All this tends to keep the price Of wheat near, the dollar mark, and "dollar wheat" is the loadstone that will attract farmers to the Canadian Northwest, where land: <s, cheap and can be farmed on A^whojes^e basis, particulars ot which may -fee lad from any Canadian GovettmefrF^ Agent The jrcdacj-loi^ of Ame/icanr.rexporta will have^the uJtt»rMfljien|e of increasing Canadjlh v jfrodu.ctkm and keeling .*p ^the ipritiL w H. coiretitntea a roseate prospect for this country, and needs no-, exercise of optlmlstie enthusiasm to foresee the; near expansion of the Dominion into* the actual position of the "granary" of the em* plre." ,. . , . :( ; - ^ .

According to his view, the upper peninsula is not anxious to have one of those biennial Junkets in which legislatures sj often indulge at the expense of the people of upper peninsula cities. The movement for the abolishment of the state tax commission has gone so far that a bill for that purpose has already been drawn up by Representative N. V. Lovell, of Berrien county. Tho latter was a member of the last house. It Is urged that while the tax coujuitesiou may be abolished us such, it will still be necessary to have a state board of assessors to assess the railroads, if the present system of taxing the transportation companies upon the value of their property is to be continue. Senator Smith, of Houghton, says: "I think the coming session will be somewhat shorter tium heretofore and that it will be purely and sharply a business session." Representative Nottingham, of Lansing, re-elected to the next legislature, has started a movement looking to the organization of the next house in a way to secure a greater measure of primary refcrni than has been generally considered to be on the program. A new measure for the taxing of the railroads will be presented at the coming session, said bill being one to not take long to locate the cause of the disturbance, and It was at once realized that robbers were at work.

He is hearing all request-* for appointments but is giving no answers as yet. Neither is he making public any appointments which he intends to make. During the summer the child found her way to Mrs. Harmon's home, where ghe told the most shocking tale. The charge against French was an infamous one. Equally so was the statement regarding the mother, whom the child charged with forcing her to submit to the degradation Imposed upon her by French. Mrs. Harmon finally acquainted the officials of the county with the statements made to her by the child and the charge was prepared.

The hotel is about ten yards from the bank and the party decided to try to scare the robbers, who were still at work. With revolvers and a shotgun they went out to the sidewalk and fired a shot. There were three robbers standing in front of the bank at this time. Four explosions had already occurred and at that moment came the fifth, which seemed to blow out the whole front of the bank building. The posse was debating about advancing upon the desperadoes when one shouted: "Come on, Bill, let's get out of this." Then the robbers stampeded for the railroad tracks. At the south switch they stopped a north-bound freight train, on which they are believed to have made their escape.

Personal influence and his service record are bein?; used to secure the rank for Brig.- Gen. Frank.O. Baldwin, of Michigan, now commanding the department of Colorado. It is asserted that Brig.- Gens.

In Pennsylvania twenty-fire farmers who were mtrons of creameries averaged a net oroflt of |15.06 per year for each cow while twenty-five more made a profit )f 65 cents per cow. In Indiana the jest six out of fifty averaged 121.00 per cow per year. It is fair to assume that these best cows were worth 'rom $45 to $60. Consequently it appears that it takes a good cow to pay in annual profit equal to one-third of ler value. Wallace's Parmer has given through ts columns the records of farmers' Socks of grade chickens that paid a clear profit of a dollar per hen. If t>ut up, at public sale many of these chickens would have sold from $3.00 :o $6.00 per dozen. It would seem ;hat the average hen, under average conditions, will give a profit of twice aer value, where the average cow, ander average conditions, will pay a profit of about one-third her value. When we consider the difference in :he amount of money invested we wonder that farmers are so slow in jiving the hen her due. Composition of Milk. Milk is made up of water and solids, the latter varying from eleven to sixteen per cent and averaging about thirteen per cent. The solids are again divided into fat and solids not fat. The solids not fat dissolved in water make a thin syrup or serum. Fat will not dissolve In water.

At least one meeting during the year •f every subordinate grange can profitably be giveu over to the discussion of tbe rural schools. There should be an fntimate relationship existing between the grange and the school. Patrons should feel a special interest in tbe work of educating the young, so many of whom make the district school their only college. Every grange should have its committee on visitation ef schools, and this committee should be composed of tbe most intelligent and progressive members. They should know by observation just what the local school is doing, whether its teacher Is qualified not only but adapted to the seeds of that particular school. Some teachers never fit in nicely anywhere, some fit everywhere. When there is a misfit successful work cannot be done. As a rule, the average farmer or average citizen, whether farmer or not, pays too little heed to the management and uoeds of the school. The progressive farmerand especially the progressive granger will find delight in this work; and he will not fall to make It a subject of discussion in the grange. ~ The following suggestive programme Is furnished by the Michigan state lecturer, and of course it Is merely suggestive. It will be varied to suit conditions: SPECIAL. SCHOOL. PROGRAMME. Musi^-'-Columbla." 'Roll call—Response by quotations. Report of committee on visitation of schools.

Has your district voted to have a library? If not, how about the library money'.' What progress Is being made toward jhlnw agriculture in the public schools?

"Poor Pay, Good Tenant*" "It isn't always the tenant who pays his rent on the first of the month who is most desirable," said a householder the other day. "Your prompt tenant is likely to hold you his debtor for that virtue and feel perfectly free to ask for numerous improvements.

A correspondent In India heard a very unctuous Hindoo police kharvari •ay the other day: "When I went into tbe bouse 1 saw four dead bodies. One of them was carried away alive." "Then yon saw three dead oodles and ndt four?" I queried. - •• ".No, sir," was the reply, emphatically and reprovingly given. "I saw four dead bodies. The one taken away alive turned out to be dead." "What does he mean?" I asked of his European superior, an Irishman. "He means, sorr, that of the foui dead men tbe wan carried away aloive doyed, by jingo, as lie was going along in the kyart." And another story comes to us from, tbe east: Thei^is an orphanage at Ban dora. A gentleman made a feast for the little inmates, one of whom was observed to oe stuffing his pocket wltb cake. "Why don't you eat it?" said the kind donor. Quoth the orphan, "I'm keeping it till my parents come to sec me." It used to be said that bulls were an Irish specialty.

A string of jack snipe was responsible for the founding of Yellowstone park, says a St. Joseph (Mo.) communication to the Galveston News. Tbe snipes were carried into a hotel In S t Joseph one night in 1878 by W. C. Fredericks and attracted the attention of George Graham Vest late United States senator. The jack snipes answered the purpose of an introduction, and the two men were soon on friendly terms. Fredericks, who had been I all over the west, began telling Vest, | who was a sportsman, of the wonder-1 ful country In ^Montana and other j statesT^'est lifer joined a party Tin Omaha and Inspected the country of which Fredericks bad told him. When he became a senator one of the first things he did was to introduce a bill setting aside the Yellowstone district as a national park. j Ilel.<-.- ' l b a . i S44ctt(iiiM.

The French traveler M. Hue, when in Lassa, in Tibet, early in tbe last century, commemorated bis visit by presenting the daiai lama of the day with s good microscope, which was put to s strange test before all bis court. Among unwashed Tibetans there is never any lack of Insect life, and a courtier, producing a specimen from beneath the folds of his sleeve, handed It to M. Hue, who amazed the simplicity o/ the lama and InVdjgnltaries with Its magnificent proportions. Tbe experiment over, there arose a little difficulty as to the disposal of the Insect, which might not by the tenets of metempsychosis, be slain.

I had but i gone a short distance when I heard a shrill voice call: "Wait a little, the lady bids you wait." It was the old dame. I waited until she hobbled near, thinking the damsel had sent a message. I was mistaken. It was more jollity the lady wished. "Take your fish, my Lord of the World," the nurse mumbled from be* tween loose teeth, as she held out the basket of trout I had left on the grass. ",I'll answer for it that ye'll get ne'er bite nor sup to-day but these same, my Lord—my Lord Fishmonger." Then site cacchinated, echoed in the woods by a fresh young voice. Milady was enjoying herself immensely. Such had been my meeting with Mistress Rosemary Allyn. I laughed now as I recalled it. Mistress Rosemary Allyn thought me a boor, and because I dressed as the villagers, that I needs must be one of them. 'Sdeath! she might have seen with half an eye, had she not been so engrossed in her own little tempest, that my kerseymere was of the finest, and my linen being from the hand loom to Nance was of as sheer a texture as any to be had in London, aye, or oven Paris. Again, 1 laughed as I looked abroad. For as tax as eye could ^eT=^rbm^the=eTar" .nence we were apon, I looked upon my own land. CHAPTER HI. A Pair of Blue Eyes. We reached a point where two roads met. I took the lower one, telling Gil that I should be home anon. Inclination and desire to again see Mistress Rosemary Allyn pulled my horse's bridle reins in the direction of Castle Drout. Castle Drout was the only dwelling I To that terse question I had no answer. "I levy where I may/' I said Instead. Then, "My good maid, tell me where Mi3tress Rosemary Allyn has gone— if gone she has?" "Where would a fine lady go?" she said. "You have a glib tongue, my girL" I put in sharply. "I serve a glib mistress," she retorted as sharply with a courtesy. "I have a message for her/' I suggested. "Let me be the messenger/' she said, "since I follow her tomorrow." "No," I returned. "I prefer to give it into her own hands." "Well, London," at last she admitted, with a shrug of her pretty shoulders, At which a lace scarf knotted about them became unloosed. "London of course—London the home of handsome women and gallant men. London should suit you, sir, and you suit London down to the ground," she added with a toss of her head, and quick change of expression as though to apply a compliment. "Whereabouts in London?" I persistently asked. es^-/ "Seek and ye shall find/' she briefly answered. "If I should wish to see the maid," I said, and I gave her a glance meant to be most taking, "whore shall I find stayed to banter tb* pretty maid, arms .to njMbJttr MUA&Ataaka. .

"TQ what, sir, am.I,indebted for the honor of seeing you in this poor "The honor, sir, is mine," I replied, striving to make time in which some reasonable excuse should come to me for my presence in his sister's room. "But why, sir, why?" ha asked again. "No why," J answered bluntly. "Jdle curiosity, as* you will." "Curiosity!" he echoed. "A woman's excuse.

We came to the end of a long hall in a wing separated from the rest.

It was much nearer j than our huts (these lay at the salvage of vast woods) if one could have bridged the steep and ragged ravine which separated tne two castles. As i t was, the road led one some miles in and out of tortuous lands. I came near the castle. It loomed still and quaint as a deserted house. I got off my horse and left him to graze. I sat down on a bowlder not many yards from its postern gate. F supposed I was hidden from the eyea of its inhabitants, yet from my place of vantage could see if perchance any one either emerged or . went in through the narrow portals of the. gate. I had not been there many minutes siting with my chin resting upon my hands, when a voice said: "What need to watch the cage when the bird has flown away?" It was the wierdest place; people came upon one without a sound. I started and my face flushed. Quickly I assumed an indifferent air, for one does not care to wear one's heart upon one's sleeve for daws to peck at, and certainly this was a, daw —a most pert one—that stood besfde me. It was a red-haired maid with bold black eyes, which peered saucily into mine who had spoken. She was capped, aproaod, and had all the ether accessories that go to make up .the toilet of a fashionable lady's maid. "Bird? What bird, my pretty maid?" I asked. . "As if the gentleman did not know?" she said. \V*J know that yWre a deucedly pretty oAe,' 1 uffliwd, ami I kissed her 6%eek. "Oh. lud!"« she. cried* with a mock show of indignation. "What < would Mistress Rosemary say?" The room was daintiness itself in its extreme femininity, albeit the bed was disarranged as if milady had but just arisen. Laee fine as cobwebs was valanced about bed and dressing table. The table was bare of any toilet articles, save a box or two, but many silken bows stuck here and there filled up the barreness, an,d gave a touch of beauty to the whole. A large roomy chair of blue and white damask, an immense divan uphol stered in the same material, with a few spindle legged chairs was about all the room contained. Such daintiness, such femininity moved me like new made wine. 1 grew hot for shamefacedness at myself^ an intruder—going there. 1 turned away, but not, before I had caught sight of a pale blue satin slipper hiding under a frail chair. To see was to desire—to desire was to obtain. But how? All sorts of ludicrous ideas flashed upon me as a means of becoming the owner of that crumpled slipper. The maid—most acute observer—divined my thoughts ere I had time to say a word. "Pretty, is it not?" she laughed. "Pretty, Indeed," I admitted, adfor it?" she miring her cunning.

Tl^e young spark was smiling slightly, but his face was as white as the lace handkerchief he drew back and forth ovei the gleaming lengtn of his rapier, reddening it. "As the gentleman has paid twice for the shoe in both blood and money^ I think, sir, it belongs to him," said the maid persuasively.

People are more likely to catch cold In the back than they ai*a generally aware of, and if neglected may prove a serious matter. The back, especially between the shoulders, should always bo kept well covered, and never lean with yoar back against anything that Is cold. Never sit with the back in a direct draught, and when warming it by the fire do not continue to keep the back exposed to the heat after it has become comfortably warm. To do so Is debilitating.—Journal of Health. FLOCKING INTO CANADA. Immigration From Dakota and Adjoining States—Major Edwards, United States Consul General at Montreal, Describes the Movement as Due to Scarcity of Land. Montreal, Nov. 15.—Major Allison Edwards, United States Consul General, who returned to-day from a visit to his home at Fargo, North Dakota, said in an interview: "The proper way to describe the manner in which the people you are getting are the ing over into Western Canada is to say they are coming over in droves.

The tax of £2 on the cab and the 15-shilHng wheel duty are paid by the owner. Taking It day in many places the course of the railway. and dav out, the cabby makes about 5 shillings a day. In the season he may take in more money, but as the hire is raised on him it comes to the same thing. If he Is not content— and there is no reason why he should be—he does not grumble unduly. Every day in London 120,000 people ride in cabs. Of course there Is friction and there i s ^ deal of noisy quarreling over fares, but so far as my ex perience goes the cabby is usually right in his estimate of the distances he has traveled and the money that I* due him. The cab horses are a good lot. They are worked six hours a day on an average. About three years in a hansom, however, will do up the best of them. Then they dift down to the four-wheelers. Potato Flour. While Irish potatoes may be eaten more extensively than any other American vegetable, it may not be generally known that they are capable of reduction to an excellent flour. In Austria, according to a government report, the manufacture of this flour is an important Industry. Corn starch is largely unknown in Austria, potato flour being substituted. It is stated JtoJk^heaper than wheat^ flour and makes a beauitlfulTy^ghrcake. The potatoes are machined in such a mantier that the starch is separated from the cells that contain it. Water is u&ed freely, carrying away the starch into settling vessels. It is then rofined, cleansed and dried. The residue is fed to stock and also used in distilleries, breweries and sugar factories. Potato flour is largely used by the Israelites in this and other countries during the Feast of the Passover, for as wheat flour is a strictly forbidden article during that festival, potato flour is a welcome assistant to the housewife, who, in her preparation of "Pesach" dainties,.finds it capable of transformation into delicious cake —Indiana Farmer. to bo any thought of there being a boundary line, at all. It is simply a question," .added the major, "of there not being any more land in North Dakota and the surrounding States, and the people are flocking to Canada to get good farms. Naturally the number that will come over will increase all the time, and I may say the people of North Dakota are combest people In the west. .,They are well supplied with money and ' are well acquainted with the conditions under which tbey will have to work." The agents of the Canadian Government are prepared to give the fullest Information regarding homestead and other lands. Franklin's Wise Advice.

Shortly after Lady Tennyson's marriage ono of her women friends wrote the following: "We would find Mrs. Tennyson alone in the large drawing room—always writing—arrayed in a dress of Boft gray merino trimmed with velvet or fur, and with a long train, a piece of rich old lace, worn instead of a cap, drooping over her hair behind and coming to a point in front. She was extremely^ kind in lending us books; among these I particularly remember Fichte's philosophical works, which she admired greatly. Her manner was always most gracious and dignified—perhaps rather languid, hut thia arose chiefly from lack of vi- / tality or physical strength.'

I soon found that my judgment was correct, and that all the good things said about this medicine were true,, and day by day I felt less pain and increased appotite.

The study of agriculture in its rudiments iu our rural schools Is one of the pressing "demands,of the times. It is a question that will trot down. It is one with which the grasfge can deal, and the grunge must agitate the reform until it has been accomplished. As H. E. Cook well says in an exchange, the Order has never in its history approved and pushed any just oanso that was not finally granted by » a r -executive and lawmaking bodies. This i i a just and righteous cause, and when this strong organization gets squarely behind the proposition with something like a definite s<lieme, sufficients .worked out and concretely present ill. then will agriculture be a part of the rural school curriculum.

But how many people have tried this - method of insuring a prompt awakening at a given hour In the morning only to find their rest throughout the night disturbed and uneasy. The brain will usually respond to the will and awaken one in the morn* iftg near the desired nour under any circumstances, but to prevent the unbroken uneasy sleep the adoption of oaly a very simple device is necsjaary. The last thing before getting injo bed, take a watch or clock and turn the hands to the hour St which one wishes to rise and gase at fhis lust long enough to fix the hour' firmly on the retentive^ memory. Then, if no other absorbing thoughts intervene between that and the moment one is locked in slumber, the night's rest will be easy and unbroken and promptly at the hour in the morning, as a rule, one will find one's- self released frdm sleep and wide awake. There is no need to keep thinking of the hour continually for a number of minutes, no need to repeat it over and over in the mind; all that makes the brain uneasyL_aiid_j;esull8 in. the disturbed slumber.

It shines on Cortez again with his men in the next Christmas eve, lying before Tezcuco, which he is to enter and plunder before the end of the week. On the Christmas eve of 1529 and for ten Christmas eves thereafter the Star looks on an American Odyssey. It is the Odyssey of Alvar Nunez and his three companions, sole survivors of the expedition of Pamfilo de Narvacz, wandering along tho northern coast of Mexico, through Texas, to the Rocky Mountains, and thence to Mexico, trying to find a way to take them back to Spain. They spend one Christmas eve in being worshiped as demigods by a tribe of Indians. They Virginia spend many others in working as slaves. In 15G7 the Star sees a gathering in Antwerp. It is a terrible gathering that .conceives a thought of inhuman wickedness and ferocity. Yet out of this Christmas meeting shall a great freedom be born.

Florisant, Mo., Dec. 19th,—(SpeclaT) —That Dodd'a Kidney Pills are doing a great work in cUrlHg the more terrible forms of Kidney Disease, such aa Bright's'Dfsease, Dropsy and Diabetes, everybody knows. But it must also be noted that they are doing a still greater work in- wiping out thousands of cases of the earlier stages of Kidney Disease. Take for instance, Mrs. Peter Barteau of this place. She says: — I have been subject to pains In my back and knees for about three years, but since I have been taking Dodd's Kidney Pills I have been entirely cured." Others here tell similar stories. In faut, In this part of Missouri there are* scores of people who have cured the early symptoms of Kidney Disease with Dodd's l^idney Pills.

If people will indulge in such luxuries, they kno\£ New Year's Day has tieen a day of ceremony and rejoicing for a great many centuries in, the world's history. Its origin is traced back to the Roman festival of Janus, after the establishment of the empire. The old Romans divided the year Into tea months only. Numa Pompillus added January and February, and dedicated the former to Janus, 713 B. C. " 'Tla he! The two-faced yanua comes in vifiW * Wild hyacinths his robe adorn. And siindrops, rivals of t h e morn. He spurns the goal aside, But smiles upon t h e new-emerging year with pride. And now unlocks, with agate key, The ruby gates of orient day." On this day the Roman consuls, lot lowed by the court, went to the cap ital, all gorgeously appareled, where they sacrificed two white bulla, never yoked, to Jupiter Capitolinus. The Romans had two New Years, the sacred one, which was the 1st of March, and the civil one of which we lsave just spoken, the 1st of January. The Jews had a sacred and a civil year; the former began in March or April, the latter in September br October, varying with the lunar period. The early Greeks had no settled year; when one was finally adopted, they commenced it at the vernal equinox. door to door with loud Binglng and merriment.'1 The word is derived from was halle, the Saxon for "Here's to you!" an expression still In use by men in pledging each other at suppers. The present loving cup takes the place of the ancient wassail bowl. In some of the country districts of England old customs are still observed. On New Year's eve, at midnight, the last of the Christmas carols 's sung, outside of the house, by the young people, then there is a rush for the nearest spring, and the first one who fills his or her glass gets what they call the "cream of the well,1' and will be the most fortunate during the coming year. In the early hours of the morning, a funeral is held, at some public houses, over "old Tom" (as the old year is called), when the boys parade the streets, asking fo? presents, and singing: ^ "I wish you a happy New Year, A pocket full ot money •And a cellar full of.beer, And a great fat pig «rj To serve you all t h e year V Ladies and ge*UWmen, Sitting by the fire, Pity we poor l o y s p Out in the mire."

In 1654 Charles IX. of and mulled cider} every nous* wi* a temple of the marry god, and man} a provident vagabond was intoxicated out. of pure economy, drifting'lliiiib? enough to serve him the remainder of the year." Irving dwells especially upon the great ball given at the Governor's, old Peter Stuyvesant, New Year's night, "when the good Peter was devoutly observant of the pious rite of kissing all the womenkind for a Happy New Year," On this day the governor also distributed fiddles to the old negroes, who fiddled all night while the young people danced. Under Peter was' Instituted "quilting bees," "husking bees," and other rural assemblages, where, under the inspiring influence of the Addles, toil was enlivened by gayety and followed by a dance! The governor did not approve ol the short skirts worn b y n h e ladies and ordered a ruffle put at the bottom of them. He likewise disapproved of some of their steps in dancing, and ordered that no other step should be taken but the "shuffle and turn," and the "double trouble."

The early Christians also considered the vernal equinox the proper time to commence the New Year. The Chinese and most Indian nations commence the New Year with the first new moon in March, the Persians in* June and the Egyptians early in the autumn, or the first day coinciding with the* rising of the ftog Star.

Much was made of the wassail bowl at this season, It waa carried from France decreed that in accordance with the Roman calendar, the Jieaj. should begin on the first day of January. • • i Christmas with them is a religious, festival, but the New Year is a domestic festival and holiday. The day commences at an early hour, with an exchange of bonbons and visits among friends and relatives. I somewhere saw an estimate that x>ne hundred thousand dollars was spent upon bonbons alone every New Year's in Paris, The French revolution brought New Year's day to this -great prominence. ,;' « - . . ^ - With the first empire it was one of the most brilliant festivals of the ui't, aa it was also of the second empire.

Through out southern Europe it is regarded as a most fortunate sign to see a pig, sig nifylng plenty for the coming twelvemonth. The sight of a snake is the worst conceivable omen, for it means death by violence. To see a Jackdaw, magpie or crow is a sign that the be holder will be cheated on all sides dur- "Ing the following year. : ~ On New Year's day a hard beaded Scotchman will take a Bible and place it upon a table, letting it fall open ol its own accord.

Though put up la coarser form than Thedford's Black-Draught, renowned for the of the digestion troubles of I persons, it has the same qualities of-invigorating digestion, stirring up the torpid liver and loosening the constipated bowels for all stock l and poultry. It is carefully prepared and its action is so healthful that stock grow and thrive with an occasional dose in their food. It cures hog cholera and makes hogs grow fat. It cures chicken chjolera and roup and makes hens lay. It cures constipation, distemper and colds in horses, murrain in cattle, and makes a draught animal do more work for the food consumed. It gives animals and fowls of all kinds new life. Every farmer and raiser should certainly give it a trial. r~ It costs 25c. a can and saves ten times its price in profit.

The whip flicking hero of this storj had driven an irascible old fellow a good three mile journey. When the fare climbed stiffly out and slowly produced a big pocketbook cabby drew a deep breath nud prepared to be sarcastic. A watchful constable standing near prevented all thought of' his relieving his feelings by the use of picturesque terms. Cabby watched his faro make u lengthy mental calculation of the distance he had been driven, select the exact legal fare, count it twice over and then proffer it to him, with an expression on his face plainly indicative of "Now, then, you dare dispute it and I'll take your number." But cabby didn't dispute it. Instead he promptly accepted it; but, slipping hia hand into another pocket, he produced a farthing, which he handed to the fare. "What's this for?" demanded the old fellow. V~~ "One farden, currlnt coin of the relruin, sir," said cabby, gathering up his reins. "I druv yer jest the exact distance represented by arf of that there shekel under the three mile you reckoned. I ain't got no arf farden about me, but it don't matter. You can keep the change.

An eccentric minister caused some surprise one Sunday by declaring that he did not in the least object to people sleeping while he was preaching. A few minutes later he and his hearers were disturbed by the loud snoring of a .man just below^Jhe pulpit, "Give him a tap on the.head]" said the minister. This was done, ineffectually. "Give him another," came the order again. Still t h e man slumbered. But at length by dint of much tapping and shaking, he was recalled into abashed consciousness. "You are making a wretched noise," roared the minister, leaning over the pulpit edge. "I don't mind your sleeping, but you are preventing other people from sleeping!" Old-Time Controversies. Old-time controversies were often vigorous in language.

As noted last week the secretary of the 'Old Boyd aud Girls Assa." of Pinokney baa been lending out oirculart etc, asking for those who wish to join to do so. Already several have complied with the request but there are a good many more who should take hold ot the matter, if we are to make a suscess of the organisation. Certainly the first year's meeting was a bummer, and it is the desire of the association officers that the 1906 meeting be belter yet, but it cannot be done without membership. The expense of the first year was borne by home voluntary contributions from oitizens and the council, but now that there is a permanent organisation the expense will have to be borne by the moneys received bv dues. There are many perhaps who would liketo^have a part in the association who wilt not receive one of the circular letters and for the benefit of those we publish the rules governing membership, below. It wilr be seen that anyone can become a member and the committee hope to be able to report a large number within the next few weeks. Christmas is over, now turn your thoughts to the old home town.

The latter was the case with Frank Bristol and Irene VMC She saw a young fellow in sail- |ytj££rousers and p«e Jacket with a light $tep, a head of curly hair, a fearless blue eye, and succumbed. He saw a girl with that shade of auburn* hair that is called Titian, or golden, with contrasting dark brown eyes, and he bent the knee. During the voyage the' two met occasionally, but Bristol saw no more of her than did his brother officers. Nevertheless the sputtering flame that had been kindled grew to a consuming fire. Meanwhile Captain Tarr walked the quarter deck oblivious to the fact that a sailor without a cent and with only a common school education had won his daughter, on whom every advantage "I want what you value moat—your laughter.** The captain waa struck flat aback and staggered for a moment under the blow. He neither granted nor denied tbe request then, but tbe time came when Bristol, aided by Irene, secure ±e coveted reward. JAMB8 GARTER SCOTT.

In the past the best dairy performers in the country have come mostly from the unregistered racks. The Lincolnahi.*o reds and the unrecorded Shorthorns have figured prominently in the leading dairy shows. Recently some of the Shorthorn breeders have felt that this feature was not receiving sufficient encouragement. As several of the first prize winners at the London dairy show have been pure bred Shorthorns and many others descendants 'of Shorthorns, it is very evlaent that unlimited possibilities exist in breeding their herds in this direction. In this connection it may be said that a mild attempt was made by our Shorthorn association in this country to encourage the dairy qualities of pure bred herds by including milking statistics in the herd book. While the association gave it their sanction, yet encouragement went no farther than this and consequently nothing has been done so far as we are aware to encourage developments in this important direction. This could be done probably if we could secure a $25,000 appropriation from congress.—Denver Field and Farm. There are 2,996 students at Yale this year.

A bulletin of the Illinois station says: The application of the scales and the Babcock test to the performance of each cow gives the dairyman the key to.the situation. Where forme? 4y=he had lo_gropf> In the dark and trust to judgment, now he can find out the truth for himself. With but little outlay of time and apparatus he can make each cow render.an accurate account of the food and care given her. This points out the best individuals from which to select offspring in building up the herd. A rapid improvement may be brought about by the introduction and use of a pure bred sire of good breeding and approved type. The continued use of the scales and Babcock test, together with good breeding and rigid selection, soon raises the herd to a plane of greater production and affords the owner greater personal satisfaction. Cows that do not respond to good treatment should be disposed of at once. In case of doubt the individual may~bekeplmn-addltionaf-yearr-butr^r cow seldom has two "off years" in succession. Your Neighbor's Cow. Every progressive dairyman should take an interest in the kind of cows his neighbor keeps. He should do this, first from the unselfish standpoint of wishing good to his neighbor, and also because in many ways it is to his own advantage for his neighbor to have good cows. If he and his neighbor are both taking milk to the same creamery or the same cheese factory it is to his advantage to have his neighbor take to the institution as much milk as possible, that the cost of changing it into a marketable product may be as light as possible. If "There is," says the Baltimore American, "some talk of independence for Canada." If the Canadians find out about it there will be trouble for the person who started the rumor.

Cows Creatures of Habit Cows are creatures of habit, and this applies as much to their food as to anything else. A change of feed frequently means a falling off in the amount of milk the animals produce, and this occurs, too, in relation to the most succulent of foods. No food la The twenty high school girls who have gone to the board of education in York, Pa., with a demand that they be taught how to cook, must be nursing the shy idea that they are going to get married soma day. , considered better for cows than June grass, yet a prominent dairyman informs the writer that when his cows are changed from silage to pasture they invariably fall off temporarily in their milk flow. He says that the same is true if he changes from old to fresh silage.

During recent years there has been much complaint of the "fishy" smell of butter, and all kinds of suggestions have been made as to its possible origin. It is not, however, believed that this is a new difficulty, but that it is an old trouble under a new name. It is altogether probable that the flavor or smell is named "fishy" more to accommodate a vivid imagination than anything else. Not that there is no^ something after the nature of "fishiness," but that it is not enough pro- |nouriced to be readily described by | every one as fishy. In fact.tsome have i dominated it "stale,". and others "tal- ! lowy." One expert says that by whatever name it is described, it is the result of dirty methods in the dairy, and that if the methods are all correct the flavor will be. =^^.- •*».«» ym* Hfttmrnm^mmm "m ^ . ¾ ^ *"•"** y i * a«ef*J)ntfate:~ Cosjaia»oiit >it: la not unusual for a maa to "get turned Jiowa" while ^tifag ft* £To know be- doesn't *new «everytbfcuUa vertav mocevt* a aiaa than to know what he does know. « i ^ UTA/ * Hard Luck is seldom born of Opposite a and No Chances; Pessimism and Apathyv are usually the parent*.

In the United States 40,000.000 bunches of the fruit are consumed each year, and the demand Is increasing at the rate of 25 per cent. In Europe, although the consumption at present Is less, yet the rate of increase ls quite 50 per cent greater. More than 150 steamers are now engaged in the collection and distribution of bananas, including the new fruit boats, which have a carry bag capacity of 1*0,000 bunches each.

It was then customary for girls to ask young men to call, anil I iu\ ited him to do so on the evening of our first meeting. In giving the invitation I didn't do it timidly, but cordially.

A light snow rested on the moss hanging from the trees, and there was thin lee on the pools. A young girl driving a pony cart was coming down a road and stopped before a cabin. A negro Woman, followed by a pickaninny four years old, came out to where the cart stood. "Clarisse," said the girl, "has your missis said anything about what she Is going to do for you in the way of a. Christinas, dinner?"

She was about to say "since o slave mother .had killed herself after separation from her child."- Miss Alice Sinclair made an effort to comfort the mother, but there was no comfort. She knew that old D-ufour, who owned this family, would sacrifice them to his own interest. "Goodby, Ckfrisse," she said, touching her pony with the whip. "God help you." On Christmas morning a servant from the Dufour mansion came to -Glarteseis-cabin—w-itb—an order for her 4 4 4 4 trader." There was* no response. It would have required between ¢2.000 and $2,500 to buy the family, and the plantera In the parish were all-struggling against a slump in the price of sugar. "Well, ray friends," continued Du- } "A Fly four, "since you don't come forward I see no way but to carry out the sale of the child. Mr. Mlllikin, your offer I s " - "One moment, please." The words came from Colonel Sinclair, an elderly gentleman of benign countenance, who rose as he spoke. "My friends," he said, "my daughter informed me of this sale, and I notified you. This is ^Christmas morning. There are two ways of celebrating the birth of him who brought 'peace ou earth and good will to men'—one In our own families, the other in the families of the needy. We have already this mornlug been occupied with the first. Here is au opportunity to engage in the, second. I propose that we buy this child and give him as a Christmas present to his parents. I will head a subscription for the purpose with $50." "Colonel Sinclair," said a gentleman sitting next to him, "I will subscribe an equal amount."

"I'll be back in a moment, sir," he added, "as soon as they are gone." "Gone—who?" I gasped. "Hush, sir, for God's sake," he said in a whisper. "Their ladyships. They are traveling incognito." "Incognito?" I repeated; "who?" "Hush, sir, not so loud," he begged. "Do you want to ruin me?" He would have jerked away from me, but I held him fast by the shoulder. "Who are their ladyships?"

I dismissed the subject with a wave qf the hand, and turned my attention to the woman and the prisoner, while Gil bestowed his upon the constable and his men. I saw a purpose forming in the woman's movements. "There is no need of haste, my good woman," I said. "If Gil can conjure up that other magenta-colored coach and four it is at your disposal." I flung my little joke at his head. "Otherwise ! you'll have to go as you came, on one of the constable's horses." At this she-demurred, so4°bought an old nag from Jock Swan.

They soon got him off the stage. That is all, except that he has been that way ever since. He is at times wild and wanders away as now, else the constable had not caught him. Ah, sir, a sad life! a sad life!" Sad indeed! but the saddest part, so it seemed to me, was that the woman's life was wrecked, and the sweetness of her not to complain, no, not one word at the burden fate had thrust upon her. "But why should the constable both* er him?" I asked. "I think Instead something should be done to relieve you—your husband put away in an asylum." "In Bedlam! My God! No!" she cried.

His people cast him off, rigid in their convictions; he was as dead to them as if they had nailed .him in his coffin. He soon became proficient enough to play Bmall parts at the Duke's theater. There he met me. I, too, was a play actor; I played minor parts, also children'3 parts, for I had a baby face. You may have heard of pretty Alice Lynson?" She spoke with pride as she asked her question, and her face gave promise of what it might be under happy circumstances, she was yet young. I nodded, although I never had. No one would know me now, I am from the rain. The woman bowed her head and sobs convulsed her form. Jock Swan and I watched the old horse amble but of sight. Oil was elsewhere employed. Pity and indignation stirred me; pity for the poor woman's plight, indignation at the constable's persecution. I was undecided what to do with the-cons table—he certainly^—merited \ some punishment. I found that Gil had settled the question for me. He came out of the inn carrying on his back one of the fellows bound with ropes. "What are you doing with them, Gil?" I asked. "You'll find them down the road a bit, wallerlng in tho mud, trussed for all the world like fowls ready for market," he answered with a grim look. "I think they will hesitate before persecuting a poor woman again," he added. "Good enough," I laughed. "But may not our host, good Jock Swan, suffer from the constable's anger?" —"The fat one will take lu his bed, I'm thinking, and perhaps it will teach him that he's too old to be running after women, the beast!" he said. "As for Jock he's no innocent; he will be able to make them think that he had naught to do with their plight. After they have sobered up a bit, which will not be long I take it in this rain, he can release them with a fitting tale of our being highwaymen, and anything else that comes to his lips."

Some of that ribaldry which had fallen, from the man's indecent tongue was not to be overlooked by Jock. Our horses saddled, we bade him good-bye, and went on our way satisfled that we were leaving them in such judicial hands, arid'that he was capable of playing his part to our liking. We cautioned him above all things to put the constable and his men off the track of the escaped prisoner. And Gil added this: "Send them after us, if they're able to travel; we'll take care of them/ We decided to ride steadily throughout the night, as the horses were fresh and we desirous of reaching London; also hopeful of overtaking the coach containing the redheaded maid of Misrlble disfigurement, and people would Btand in amazement and look after her.

"At different times I had read in various publications about Dr. Williams' wonderful Pink Pills for Pale People, and I finally decided to try them.

One ot the sanest suggestions that has been made on .the rural delivety is the scheme for the establishment of parcel post on \he routes. The vital point of this is that the carriers are to deliver parcels up to a few pounds weight lor a postal rate of three cents per pound, this rate to apply to the office from which the routes start. By this arrangement, light parcels can be orcered from the local merchants and delivered at a low charge.

CHAPTER Vlll.^-Continued. Oil being wrapped in his thoughts and his pipe, I bethought me of the letter given me by my father. I had been so busy getting ready and occupied with one thing and another that I had barely read it. It had a great interest for me. I had placed it in an envelope, sealed, and marked it^with the word "Private."

Should I ever run him down, and he be living, I would remember my father and my hand should not fall lightly. I wondered if perchance there was anything about the paper overlooked by which the perpetrator might be discovered. I would take it out again and examine it more closely— minutely. I put my hand into my pocket, which was a deep one; it was empty, void as the air. I gasped with astonishment. Ah! no doubt heedlessly I had changed it to another pocket. I began a search for it. No use, it was gone. I reined up my horse. Gil came riding back. "What is it?" he asked. "My God!" I exclaimed, "I have lost my letter!" "Letter?" he repeated, and looked as if he thought me daft "Why thrash over the same ground? If the girl who stole the paper is not to be found, why—we'll see what force can d o . ' \ "Devil take that piece of paper," I muttered in my distress; " 'tis of the letter given me by my father I am speaking." "Ah-h-h!" he said, and his guttural utterance was expressive of many things. "It is of the greatest importance, Gil," I said; "in fact, on It hangs the were strained for the sound of a horse's hoofs clattering on the brick courtyard. The door opened and showed me Gil standing in the hallway lighting his pipe.

His condition certainly did not be* speak success—it was impossible that he could have found it. • He wa'ked over to where I sat and laid a paper on the table at my right. I picked it up. It was the paper without doubt, minus the envelope, perfectly dry, only a little crumpled. My elastic nature rebounded at once. I jumped up and hugged him. "You are a jewel of the first water, Gil," I cried. "Where did you find it?" Before he could answer I added: "But first before you begin let me look to that cut. You are hurt." "Not much. I left those behind hurt worse," he answered, dabbing his wound with a napkin. "It will soon heal. Yes, I found the paper without much trouble following the clue I had.

Without it, why I might as well go back to Long Haut. My God! I am afraid it will be tlie death of him." "Taken in again," muttered Gil, "and by petticoats." "What do you mean?" I demanded severely. "This is no time for joking." "Ride on and put up at the Golden Acorn," he retorted. "See that there is another horse awaiting for me. I will be back in five hours." —"I had better go with you, Lwu pah'g of eyes are better than one. Anyway, without the paper I can accomplish nothing," I returned dolefully. "No,, if one isn't enough, two will be no better," he replied. "I can attend to the business. If I am not successful we can then both go back home. Be sure the horses are in good condition ready to start upon my return." So saying he turned his horse's head and went back over the road that we had just come. There was an old grandfather's clock standing in the corne'r of the tap room where I sat moodily waiting. When the clock should strike seven the five hours given Gil by himself for the accomplishing of his purpose would be up. I assure you I had no hope; I had carelessly loat the paper on the way and this time the rain and the mud had blotted it out of all rescmblanoo to tho thing it had been. I was a-discreet person to send upon a serious mission. I was loading myself with contumely.. The clock began to clang the hour. I started (although [ had op an average glanced at that alock every Ave minutes since entering the tap room), and looked up from the blazing log where my pypR hflu been fixed in thought whne my ears back to the constable, who, no doubt, was quite ready to resume operations where they had been cut off, and this time she could come in for her share since she had winked at a prisoner's escape. She cried—she— My God; these women! they are born to cajole poor men till they get what they waift, and then the devil may take you for a thank you." "Yes, yes, what then?" I asked impatiently. "The crying wouldn't down a bit— paper or jail, said 1," he continued. "Then she gave it up and I read her a lesson on woman, and woman's gratitude. She told me this—you must take it for,what it is worth; I believe no woman. She had been bought by the enemy, Sir Rjioul Dwight. He knew her, no doubt, as 'pretty Alice Lynson.' It was for him she was to get a paper you had hidden on your person. Such had been her object when she left him yesterday, but on the way to the inn -she had fallen in with the constable, who had just arrested her husband, Martin Toms. All thought of the paper was forgotten in the greater calamity, until we happened in at the White-Swan. She said that if she had known that we were going to be so kind to her she would not have taken the paper for all the A y IfsffPad that we • * # fc> j o sfcoughl to gain the promts* oil ma* ; -Wage.

Presently he said apropos of nothing, "Pretty Alice Lynson** by her indiscretion having started hu% on his favorite theme—woman: 'Woman is like a sparkling glass of wine, you feel as though you could never get enough, but God! bow heavy they both pall upon you next day. Landlord, your bill. Come, let us be off." "But you have not told me how you received that scratch?" I asked him. A fierceness came over his eye. "I fell in with the constable's fellows," he replied to the point, "and they recognized me. They were coming from housing the constable." "I wish I had beenwith you," I said. "It was too one-sided—three against one." "It was brief. If I trussed them before, I finished my work by carbonadoeing them now," he 'said, and laughed. , CHAPTER IX. A World Worn Beauty. Only one day's journey from London! A day I felt that for me would stretch itself out even unto twelve times its original length before we should reach our biding place, but, God willing, we hoped to hear the bells of Bow church ring out their evening chime. We had been in the saddle all night, and I was galled from riding in spite of the many ways I had of easing myself. I was now riding with my legs hanging over one side as I had seen market men do to balance the weight of their horses. It was yet early in the morning, the dew was on the gossamer. Gil beguiled those last hours of the early morn with reminiscences of the times he had had in London, that "hotbed of The road had been for miles through a forest tract where the trees were so dense that, although the sun shone brightly, splashes of light were seen only in places. We came out abruptly into the open space. So clean cut was the division, it was as if a giant's knife had separated the woods from the open country. We were upon an elevation and looking down (we could see as soon as our eyes became accustomed to the glare) great lengths of rolling heath and hill, while the tapering road wound in and out like the delicate tracery on a piece of tapestry. The boastings were hardly from his mouth, when he added: "Hasten, there is trouble ahead!" and put spurs to his horse. — I—knew 4rom his exclamation that his piercing eyes had caught sight of an object my more obtuse ones had not yet seen; what I was not long in finding out going at the pace we were. We kept to the sides of the road so that the noise of the horses' feet coming on the turf should not be heard. When we had ridden near enough, we stopped in the sheltering shade of a clump of trees. It hid us from view. To the side of the road a post coach was standing on the two wheels of one side. The other two were In the ajr looking woefully out of place. The six horses plunged -and trembled. At their heads were masked men—highwaymen— bold fellows, too, to be about their business in so open a spot on tne country's face. "Not the 'Magenta colored coach/ " ejaculated Gil. In the stillness of the atmosphere we heard the high clear thread of a patrician voice. "Pray, good sir, go easy," it said. " 'Tis not so I have heard it said that gentlemen who take to the road are wont to treat the gentler sex. They use them courteously, I assure you." "Your pardon, Madame," answered a deeply musical voice. It came from the rogue standing by the-eoach door. "Allow me. Only one /moment shall which I the Raoul Dwlghts in the world. You understand she said this, I but repeat h'ftr-wrirrtH. She added with more hluhbering that after, she left the Inn, instead of keeping to the main road she had branched off to Trefford, where she was to meet Raoul Dwight's man. He was waiting for her. She gave him the paperl He opened it. and then he damned her for a fool and-"irew it back at her." ['I see. Sir , P.uoul Dwight had ii I inconvenience you, i for again crave' pardon." With that the scamp—helped lady out of the coach and to search it. "Ah, I see," she said sarcastically, "you are truly one of those gallant ones who lighten the purses of way* farers." "By my faith," said he, "some need relieving." "That's as it may be," she retorted. "Men must take the chances of war. I care only where it affects myself. Now if you would imitate that worldrenowned highwayman, Claude Duval, you would request the honor of a dance on tho green, and in payment—" She gave a suggestive shrug and wave of her hand. Then she lifted her dress In one hand-to show her feet, and most wantonly took a few steps in the minuet. Her manner was hftwltohing, ' (To be continued.) Last Recourse. "No work," said the man, gloomily, "and not a thing in the house to eat.

The coming of t h e play did not seem to make much of a stir in dramatic circles. Hope saw an item in a newspaper sneeringly referring to the man ager's prize plan as an advertising dodge that would not pay, but she burned the paper before her husband saw It.

At a meeting in the prison of Dundalk the Presbyterian, Episcopal and Roman Catholic chaplains, with several local magistrates, took part and a deep impression on the prioners was evident. Dennis McGowan, a saloonkoeper of Philadelphia, spiaks from experience, and rebukes Bishop Potter as follows, in the Noith American of August 4: "I don't think a preacher has any business giving countenance to a saloon in any way whatever.

It is said that the Ohio brewers' association at the next session of the legislature to have beer stricken off the list of intoxicants and to have it classed as liquid food. Au Eutfiish lord, speaking of the influence of the drink upon his people, says: "I have watched the temperance reform movement for l fifty years, and buFfo?it EnglancT | would by this time have been uni inhabitable." ! An English drunarkd said to a [Salvation Army lassie, who spoke to him about his soul: "You must be well paid for this. I suppose you expect as much as half a crown for getting me to sigu the pledge." She replied: "I'm better paid than that. I expect to get a whole crown, and there'll be stars in it beside." T a t a r a n d T a r t a r . "Tartar" "Is a WTJTti winch ^ives—a-» illustration of etymology gone astray. The name "Tatar" (as it is correctly spelled) Is really derived from a Turanian root moaning "to stretch," and hence "to draw the bow" or "to pitch tents." But when the hordes of. Tatars burst upon eastern Europe from the Asiatic steppes in the thirteenth cen- -, tury the minds of students turned to the ninth chapter of Revelation. The Tatar invasion was Interpreted as a fulfillment of the prediction of the opening of the bottomless pit. A contemporary chronicler writes of "this detestable satanic people issuing fortb like demons let loose from Tartarus, so that they are fitly named Tartar!." Thus the misconception took root.

O a e o T l h e first thlng»oaat*n America* wtoo visits Cuba Imma i f that many-thing* hfe prevlotrely Jeara^l aire not true, f o r instance, before I7 went there I was wont to picture to myself the-Cuban girl in a balcony, a mantilla falling in graceful folds about her face, listening f b t h e tinkling mandolin that her lover was playing in the street below. Perhapa you have pictured the same scene yourself— 'but you'll never see tt in Cuba. Girls in Cuba seldom wear mantillas- As for the mandolin, that instrument is more popular in this country than in Cuba, and the lover—or anybody else •—who should attempt a serenade under a lady's window would be promptly told to move on by the police. As a matter of fact, the sidewalks of Havana are so narrow that there is a law forbidding one to obstruct the walk by merely standing still. Cubans do not invariably go to sleep in the middle of t^e day. The Cuban has no romantic notions about a hammock. In t^e cities one seldom sees a hammock ^ all, but the Cuban p^sant—or gaajiro, as he is called—frequently uses a hammock to sleep in at night. When he gets up in the morning he rolls it up and puts it away out of sight. The great majority of Cubans are engaged in agricultural pursuits - and nature is very kind to the Cuban farmer. He does not h~ve to work as hard as does the farmer of our own country in orde'r to support himself and family. Someone has said of this fertile island: "Tickle the land with a hoe and it laughs witn a harvest." There is no unproductive season in Cuba. No necessity of providing for the future. The Cuban gathers fL&rop of corn in the winter in addition to the crop he gathers in the summer. His kitchen garden yields its vegetables perennially. His cattle graze the year round on grass that is perpetually green. If the Cuban takes no thought of the morrow it is because he has. learned that tomorrow and the day after and all days will be as yesterday and to-day.

When you leave him it is often difficult to make him accept anything In payment for his hospitality, Inherent Love of Gambling. The passion for gambling is strong in the Cuban. He will bet on anything* but prefers to stake his money on cards and gamecocks. Cock fighting, which is now forbidden by law, was for generations the national sport of the Cubans, and if the matter were left-to the popular vote I think they would go back to it, just as they would go back to the lottery. The lottery that the Spaniards maintained in Cuba was a national lottery, and the government derived a large revenue from its operation. It was supported by the poor, and though It robbed them of their substance, It enabled them, they say, to forget that they were poor, or at least to hope that they would not be so poor always. One woman—she worked in a cigar factory and earned 50 cents a day stripping tobacco—told me that she had bought a lottery ticket, which costs 20 cents, e\ery month, ever since she was a little girl, and that although she had never won anything she would begin buying them to-morrow if she could. "And while I was waiting for the drawing to take place," she said, "I could always hope that I was going to win a prize. Now I can't even hope. Isn't it' wcrth 20 cents a month to be able to hope?'' *;, ^ ¾ ; . . Strength of Family Ties.

The family of the Cub? farmer is numerous, but his household expenses are few. The house itself lie built with his own hands and palm trees furnished nearly^all of the material used in its construction. No saw or hammer was employed in'erectshoemaker's scanty means; but his sense of duty and family pride were strong, and ho" came to tb£ seaport to meet the children, who were coming by the boat.

The little girl arose without a word and, taking the man's rough hand in hers, raised it reverently to her lips. Then she motioned to the younger girl, who, as silently as the other, to tuck his shirt into his trousers, but wears it like a kimono.

Estherville, Iowa, Jan. 23d.—(Special)— The experience of Mr. George J. Barber, a well known citizen of this place, justifies his friends in making the announcement to the world "Bright's Disease can be cured." Mr. Barber had kidney trouble and it developed into Bright's Disease. He treated it with Dodd's Kidney Pills and to-day he is a well man. In an Interview he says: "I can't say too much for Dodd's Kidney Pills. I had Kidney Disease for fifteen years and though I doctored for it with the best doctors here and in Chicago, it developed into Bright's Disease. Then 1 started to use Dorkfs Kidney Pills and two ¥blveT cured me completely.- I think Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best in the world."

Hedger as first pastor. A parsonage was built in 1858. As the years went by the parsonage became old and in need of constant repair, and being small with no convenient study, it was deemed advisable to sell, and build a parsonage on the lots adjoiningthe the church, and this was done during t)ie pastorate of H. Cartledge. This l'ef/a debt of ever $800.00; but through the ifforts of Presiding Elder Hudson and earnest workers in the church, this debt was raised and a jubilee held in -Feb. 1880. When>Rev. H. Marshall was pastor the old seats m the church were rearranged and the wesfypart of the hall was converted into a class room. During the pastorate of Rev. G. A. Hopkins the gallery was made into an Epworth League room. With Rev. \V. G. Stephens as pastor the old windows were replaced with new ones of stained glass, the house heated with furnace, new carpet and newly papered; ami while Rev. Chas. Simpson was pastor the church and parsonage were treated on the outside to a coat of white paint. Under the present pastor, Robert L. Cope, the church has been wainscoted, grained, repapered, the seats replaced by beautiful new chairs, the platform lowered and euiarged,; new pulpit furniture and altar taking the p lace of the old.

Upon a firm refusal by Mr. Post to j&a this criminal conspiracy a general boycott was ordered on Grape- Nuts and Postum all over the country, which set the good red blood of our ancestors in motion, bringing forth the reply that has now passed Into history: ''We refuse to join any conspiracy of organised labor to ruin publishers, nor will we discharge any of our trusted employes upon the orders of any labor union.

The usual coarse, villainous epithets common to labor union writers were indulged in. The result was to weld public sentiment in Battle Creek for protection. A citizens* association was started, and mass meetings held. Good citizens who happened to be members of local unions, in some cases quit the unions entirely for there is small need of them there. The working people of Battle Creek are of" the ^highest order of American mechanics. The majority are not union members, for practically all of the manufacturers have for years declined to- employ union men because the grocer is—boycotted -it-he_Jurniahej„ ^ t disturbances _about_ eleven _years_( ice^ under similar conditions, the rate him supplies,-his family followed and j Insulted and Jals life invade ,more misjMitie than that of a klatffc slave be- 'fjtaa* the war.

He cannot put a little mortar to a loose brick on his chimney or the bricklayers', plasterers' or hod carriers' "union" is up in arms, and if he carelessly eats a loaf of bread that has no "union" label on it the bakers' "union" proceeds to make life miserable for him. So the white slave is tied hand and foot, unable to lift a hand to better himself or do the needful things, without first obtaining permission from some haughty, ignorant and abusive ^tyrant of some labor -union* - ; It would all seem rather like'* comic pera If it did not rob people of their eedom; that kind of work will not he permitted long in America- Some smooth managers have built up thev4abor .trust in the last few years, to bring themselves money and «Aave succeeded in making It possible for. Ibem to lay down the law in some citiesVnd force workmen and rltlsens to "obey" Implicitly, stripping them right and left of their liberties. They have used boycotting, picketing, assaultsT.dynatnitiffg of property nnd murder to enforce their orders and rule the people. They have gone far enough to order the President to remove certain citizens from office because the "unions" weren't pleased. That means they propose to make \ the law of the unions replace the r law of this government and the union leaders dominate even "the chief Executive. This Is a government jof and for.,the people aad no organization or trust shall displace it. But the unions try it every now and then, led by desperate men as shown in their defiance of Jaw and support of lawbreakers. gho "union" record of—aammTts, ago,-and -the union men now in city are.among the best citizens. NO city In the state of Michigan pays as high average wages as Battle Creek, no city of its size Is as prosperous, and no city has so large'a pro- 'po'ftlott of the best grade of mechanics who own their own homes. So, the work people massed together with the other citizens of the organization of the Citizens' Ass'n with the following preamble and constitution;. - Wheieas, From 1891 to 1894 the strikes instigated by* labor unions in Battle Creek resulted in the destruc^ tlon of property and loss of large sums of money in wages that would have been expended here; and, — W ^ w » , Thntm nrta rans<»ri serious damage to the city and in a market way delayed its progress at that-time; and, * Whereas, Since the year lS94/the citizens have been enabled, by public sentiment, to prevent the recurrence of strikes and labor union disturbances which ha,v£ been prevalent elsewhere; and, Whereas, The employers of this city have steadfastly refused to place the men the spirit of industry, thrift, faith fulness to their employers, and good citizenship. Seventh—To so amalgamate the public sentiment of all of th.e best citizens of Battle Creek, that a guarantee can be given to the world of a. continuance of peaceful conditions, and that under such guarantee and protection manufacturers and capitalists can be induced to locate,their business enterprises in Battle Creek. . Then follows articles relating to membership, officers, duties, etc., etc., OtCr , This constitution has been signed by the great majority of representative citizens, including our workpeople. A number of manufacturers from other cities, where they have been suffering all sorts of indignities, inconvenience and losses from the general hell of labor union strikes, picketing, assaults and other interference, proposed to move, providing they could, be guaranteed protection. The subject grew in importance until it has reached a place where absolute protection can be guaranteed by the citizens of Battle Creek on the following broad and evenly balanced terms which guarantees to the workman and to the manufacturer fair* ness, justice, steady work and regularity of output. The newceming manufacturer agrees to maintain the standard rate of wage paid elsewhere for like serv Identltcation. The< nubile should remember that there a r e a few labor unions cboduc|ed on peaceful lines and in proportion as Jhey.are worthy,,they have.'woT.#; teem, tor we, an a people, are strongly in sympathy with anr right act ttyit has for its purpose better conditions for wage workers. But we do not forget that we seek fh» good of all and not those alone who belong to some organization, whereas even the lawabiding unions show undeniable evidences of tyranny and oppression when criminals in their efforts to force a yoke of slavery upon the. American people. As a public speaker. lately said: "The arrogance of the English King that roused the fiery eloquence of Otis, that inspired the immortal declaration of Jefferson, that left Warren dying on the 'slopes of Bunker Hill, was not more outrageous than the conditions that a closed shop would force upon the community. These men burst into rebellion 'when the king did but touch their pockets/ Imagine if you can their indignant protest had he sought to prohibit or restrict their occupation or. determine the conditions under which they should earn their livelihood," and to assault, beat and murder them, blow if they did not submit. The public^ should also remember that good, true American citizens can be found in the unions and that they deprecate the criminal acts of their fellow members, but they are often in bad company. Salt only hurts sore spots. So, the honest, law-abiding union man i s not hurt when the criminals are denounced, but when you hear a union man "holler" because the facts are made public, he has branded himself as either one of the lawbreakers or a sympathizer, and therefore with the mind of the lawbreaker, and likely to become one when opportunity offers. That Is one reason employers decline to*hire such men. <! w*< Charles SwOta from Spokante, wltfcdte*. * . & • : ••'•>-. ^-: to be determined from time to time from well authenticated reports from competing cities. The tabulated wage reports issued by the Government Department of Commerce and Labor can also be used to show the standard rate, and it is expected later on that this government bureau will furnish weekly reports of the labor market from different centers, so that-the workman when he is ready to sell his labor and the employer when he is ready to buy, may each have reliable information as to the market or ruling price. k The newcoming manufacturer also agrees to maintain the sanitary and hygienic conditions provided for by the state laws and to refrain from any power |and by managing workmen, ? pjanagement' of their business under tripling of men and even women and Idren, destruction of property and der of American Utiieus during' the past two years is perhaps" ten -times the Tnlnm* of crime aqdabiyy* the control of labor unions, but have maintained the highest standard of ^^ages-naid_under jiike conditions anywhere in the United States,'and here- ' by unanimously declared their intent to continue such policy; and the employes of this city,, a large percentage of whom own homes and have families reared and educated under conditions, of peace and the well-earned prosperity of steady employment, have steadfastly maintained their right as free American citizens to work without the dictation and tyranny of labor union leaders, the bitter experience of the past offieting sufficient reasbn for a determined stand for freedom^ and, Whereas, The attitude of the. citizens on this subject has been the mean* of preserving peaceful conditions and continuous prosperity, in marked contrast to the conditions existing in other cities suffering from thy ritotfttinn of trade* unionism: it l*_ H t perpetrated by slave owners during any tw» years- previous to the civil WAT.

CONSTITUTION. Article 1.—Name. Arties 8.-Objects, _ first—To insure, so far as possible, lockouts to reduce wages below the standard, reserving to himself the right to discharge any employe for cause. The Citizens' Association on its part •agrees to furnish, in such numbers as it is possible to obtain.^ first-class workmen who will contract to sell their labor at the standard price for such period as may be fixed upon, agreeing not to strike, picket, assault ether workmen, destroy property, or do any of the criminal acts common to labor unionism. Esch workman re- • serving to himself the right to guit "worK for cause, and the <?f sociation further pledges its mem bers to use its associated power to enforce the contracts between employer and employe, and to act en masse to uphold the law at all times. The new industries locating in Battle Creek will not start under any sort of labor union domination whatsoever, but will make individual contracts with each employe, those contracts being fair and equitable and guaranteed on both sides. . Thus from the abuses of labor unions and their insane efforts to ruin everyone who does not "obey"- has evolved this plan which replaces the old conditions of injustice, lockouts, strikes, violence, loss of money and property, and general industrial warfare, and inaugurates an era of perfect balance and—fairness between A short time ago inquiry came from the union forces to know if Mr. Post would "keep still" if they would call off the boycott on Postum and Grapo- Nuts. This is the reply: "The labor trust has seen fit to try to ruin our business because we would not join its criminal conspiracy. We are plain American citizens and differ from the labor union plan in that we do not force people to strike, picket, boycott, assault, blow up property or" commit murder. • We do not pay thugs $20 to break in the ribs of any man who tries to support his family nor $30 for an eye knocked out ! . , Cells art Caesle OlHre, „ „ m and 75 respectively, were burned to death at their home Bear Fultoabam* 0& 4hrougn the clothing of the eldest jfn|t* lag toon an open fteplace.

There was a truce just then between white and red, though liable to be broken by the latter without notice and at any moment. During the long day's ride, the lady being in an ambulance, we knew that we were being followed by Indians, but they did not seek to overhaul us. A t about sundown we went into camp xm a wooded hill, with the gcound pretty thickly strewn with bpw/ders of all •tees. We got the horses and mules up there, but the vehicle was left down on the plain. It was a cone shaped hill amid bnlf a dozen such, but it commanded the others. It was covered with pines and cedars of small growth, and there was a splendid spring right on the crest. Darkness found us occupying a circle about forty feet across, with stones and .bowlders and logs fo> shelter. We felt that we were safe from attack that night, but what would happen on the mowow jgaa ajnatter fjQA4P^yjLPi>njyd_-. eration. It was more than likely that a couple of hundred Indians would be brought up and take positions daring the night. None of us except the woman slept an hour all night long. We used levers to loosen other bowlders and roll them Into the circle, and with our knives and hatchets we cut off limbs and cut down small trees and used them for chinking. We got the animals into a sort of gully below us and made their position as safe as possible, and wheb daylight came there was nothing more to be done. We had % '^boye GOO rounds of ammunition and uld reckon on It lasting us at least hree days, and. we had food for the me time and an unlimited supply of water. Daybreak round trs ready^for-an a t charge. Peace came again after a few months, and one day over 200 mounted Indians appeared in friendship,' and their chief said to the colonel: "We come In peace, and we come to see the woman who fought us on the hill by the two rivers. Bring her forth that we may touch her hands and look into her face and call her the -'Woman of fJattle.'" M. QUAD. P l a c e a n d Prlcfe I n N e w York. Prices on Broadway and on Nassau street are notoriously at variance, but the value sometimes placed on a well known business name is even more pretentious. Jones has a watch that was carried by his father—a costly gold timepiece that in its prime was one to be proud of. The other day he decided to have it "restored," and naturally took it to a well known Broadway store. "I'll have to look it over," the clerk told Jones when the latter modestly asked the cost of putting the watch in good running order. "Leave it and come back tomorrow." , i Jones+did so, and caught his breath as the clerk remarked that It would TSPST'Ksactty $28.50 for repairs. =3Phen_ he took his watch and fled. At noon on the same day he took his watch to a little shop on Nassau street. "It just needs a new mainspring and a cleaning," ae was told. "That'll cost you $2.60."—New Yora* Post.
