On the night of the murder, according to Mrs, Tinney's partial account, the demand that she occupy the room with-Jenks was resisted by her and Uer husband. Aiger Pruden, the murdered boy, learning of the shameful proposal, indignantly denounced Jeaks's conduct. Quiet was restored, however. Later Jenks again insisted on Mm. Tinney occupying his room; he wanted her to sleep on the couch and Tiuuey to sleep in the bed with him. Alger again Interfered, trying to reason with Jenks.* The maudlin man seemed to yield to Pruden; but 'when quiet had been restored for some time the shot was heard in Alger's room. Mrs. Tiuney rushed to the room and found Jenks within. Alger was lying on the floor.

Why She Felt Lenient Toward* the Drunkard: A great deal depends on the point of view. A good temperance woman was led, in a very peculiar way, to revise her somewhat harsh judgment of the poor devil who cannot resist his cups and she is now the more charitable. She writes: "For many years I was a great sufferer from asthma. Finally my health got so poor that I found I could not lie down, but walked the floor whilst others slept. I got so nervous I could not rest anywhere. "Specialists told me I must give up theuse of coffee^—the main thing that 1 always thought gave me some relief. I consulted our family physician, and he, being a coffee fiend himself, told me to pay no attention to their adviae. Coffee had such a charm for me tmaJLln passing a restaurant and get- ^ w h i f f of the fragrance 1 could lift: a cup. I felt very lenient lrd$ the drunkard who could not pasa ike saloon.

"At Iflflt, hnwevpr, I bought a paok- »>> T T * - r^ age of Postum, although 1 was sure I could not drink it.

He stayed for dinner. Whet I passed him his coffee cup he remarked: 'I am glad to see you were sensible enough not to let yourself be persuaded that coffee —was harmful. This is the best cup of coffee I ever drank,' he continued; 'the ttouble is so few people know how to 'make good coffee.' When he got his second cup I told him he was drinking Postum. He was incredulous, font I convinced him, and now he uses nothing but Postum in his home and has greatly improved in health." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

I very much wish you to try one of them. They are far superior to the pears at the home. In order to get the exquisite sweetness you must eat very rapidly." .

In the SUmmfeT of 1864 David Levy, a private soldier, was seat to one of the- army hospitals while suffering from some small ailment, which, however, was sufficient to incapacitate him for duty. One day he disappeared from the hospital. It was found later that he had deserted and gone home, his later explanation being that he thought he could recover his health quicker if he was among his own people.-v In due time he was apprehended by the military authorities and returned to the fron*., going by way of Washington. Tfraile in Washington under guars and ^waiting trial for desertion hb managed to bring his case to the attent- on of President Lincoln. The prefc ident sent for him, heard his story and Josed the incident by giving hiia a pA.'don, and from here the story skip* some thirty-eight years. In Oecember last the'pension depanjmem received an application for a uettsion from David Levy. In looking up the records in the adjutant general's ofncj it was discovered that< David Levy was carried with the word "deserter" opposite his name. He was informed by the pension officials that pensions were not for deserters. Ho replied that it was true that he hal been a deserter, but that he had been pardoned by the president and ha<1 served faithfully until the end of th,5 war.

At What Temperature Water Bolls. Water boils at different temperatures, according to the elevation above the sea level. In London water boils practically at 212 degrees Fahrenheit; in Munich, Germany, at 209½ degrees; in the City of Mexico, at 200 degrees, and in the Himalayas, at an elevation of 18,000 feet above the level of the sea, at 180 degrees". These differences are caused by the varying pressure of the atmosphere at these points. In London the whole weight of the air has to be overcome. In Mexico, 7,000 feet above the sea, there Is 7,000 feet less of atmosphere to be resisted. Consequently less heat is required and boiling takes place at a lower temperature.

Although the popular vote cast <br Andrew Jackson exceeded the number of votes cast for John' Quincy Adams by a little more than 50,000, the electoral college gave Adams 16 jnore vVrtes than Jackson received, and Adams was declared President* to the disappointment and rage of the supporters of Jackson. Washington's cabinet had In it Thomas Jefferson, Edmund Randolph and Timothy Pickering as secretaries of state. Pickering was from Massachusetts, and he became secretary of state In Decernoer ot tbe yeai 1795. Alexander Hamilton and Oliver "Wolcqtt served as secretaries of the treasury during Washington's administration, while Henry Knox, Timothy Pickering and James McHenry served ,at different times as' secretaries ot war and navy. All was not harmonious in the President's „ cabinet, peaceful as his election had been. Thomas Jefferson acid Alexander Hamilton were not the best of Mend8^nd the breach widened as it became more~and Tm^re~appaTent that Hamilton had more influence than Jefferson over Washington and was able to1 bring more things to pass. Washington was as unwilling to receive his second nomination as be had been to Yecetve the first, and he was j&nxlous ip_retire from public life, but again his friends made him feeiHthat it was his duty to accept.the office. The second campaign, like the first, was without conventions, without nominations, and such a thing as a "platform" on which the party might "stand" was as yet unheard of. But party spirit had made itself felt, and there were Federalists and Anti-Federalists, to whom the name of Republicans began to be given. But both parties were eager that Washington should remain in office, although there was an effort made to oust John Adams from the vice presidency and to give that office to George Clinton, but Adams was, as is well known, elected for a second term Pnrty ry\rtt ™m h'pfr Inrf^ed it be came so violent before the close of Washington's second administration that he might well have wished himself back on his peaceful Mt.

Nearly every yard has come kind of fruit tree growing in it Oranges are as common as cherry trees in a farmiug community in the east Besides these, there are acres of orchards in the surrounding ranching section. They usually blossom from January to April and it is no uncommon thing to see the blossoms, the green fruit and the matured fruit on the same tree. They are ready to market along in January. The navels are perhaps the most popular here. The tree seldom attains * height of more thau 15ft. when properly attended.

''Three days from now," seemed ag*f %waj^ "three days/' in.which I must watt before I ahoujd meet this brassard,.,and.after him the others. Happily, by that time the King's businef s would be over. I ^gave myself up to thought. Sir Raoul Dwight was the cousin of the woman I loved. If I put a-dot to his life by a slaccado, what then? Would Mistress Rosemary Allyn think with amiability of the man who had given a coup de grace to "Cousin Raoul?" Such; an event would be putting an end to my own existence, for an existence without my lady would be blank indeed to me. L would give him a slight pink, I decided1, yet enough to lay him up for * time, since I owed him malice. It is true that women either love or hate; I would have her love. It is equally true that women-*rft-ta._ha won; I would win her. As a man puts his hand to the plow..and sows, so shall he reap. Should I some day pluck sweet fruit in that fair garden?

She swept past' the crowd disdainfully, paying no heed to their nudgings or loud whispers, as they commented upon her form and features, even as farmers at a country fair upon their prize stock.

She had not seen me. I went up to her with a cynical ismile upon my face and carelessly bending over her whispered: "The sought is found without seeking, my pretty maid of Castle Drout." At my words she raised her eyelids haughtily lowered from the good-nat- ,ed: "that explains all." I tooft off, , uredly insolent gaze of the bystand- •> er9.;afid a_ faint smile crossed her lips. I answered her smile with: "Do m all lady's maids ride in sedan chairs, •i and,have the world gape at them in London town?" V "Why notT*-' Again she smiled and -in quickly; "no sweets, I pray.

"You should know, since she is or was your mistress," I sneered. 'Mistress? Ah, yoa," flbp mnttenefl, -'Have you met her yet?" "I have seen her," I admitted, "but at your hands I expect a more auspicious meeting, although you have come up considerably in the world since I. saw ymi last" I glanced significantly at her retinue of servants. It had not taken her long to become au fait with the "what complaint have you to make of Nell Gwyn^" Nell Gwyn!" I-echoed. "Yes, Nell Gwyn/' she mimicked, and made a moue atjne.

"I must crave yoar pardon^-you will grant it, since I can pay you no higher compliment than by saying p»tfr acting was to the life." "There—there—no sweets," she put quite enough of them. , I like best the flavor of that rugged country of yours. Truly I enjoyed that little comedy with an audience of one more than all my performances at the old Drury." "The handsome youth with whom I fought," I scarcely dared ask, "was he also of your calling." "Well hardly," she muttered. Then, throwing back her elaborately-covered head;'said:' ""Still he played no mean part that day—I almost envied him." —"You du nut im;au to imply that it waB Mistress Rosemary Allyn?" I gasped. " _ Again Mistress Nell Gwyn went off into paroxysms of laughter. "Yes, Rosemary Allyn," she affirmed. "We shall have to have her at the Drury, she maketh. go good an actress." "My. God!'

"Who said I took a paper from your pocket?" she queried. "Do not trifle with me, sweet Mistress Nell," I begged. "Well, first let me know what yon intend doing with it?" she asked. "Dear Mistress Nell, you would not have me lightly throw away a paper containing a promise of marriage with so renowned a beauty as my Lady Felton?" I returned. "Um—" she smiled and her hands played with the tassels of her gown cbquettTsfiTy; ,fhave you ever seen her?" she asked. a > : "No," I replied... "You see there is something in store for me, since all the sparks of town are mad for love of her." "The town seems divided between the two beauties—Mistress Rosemary Allyn and Lady Felton."

"The man from Long Haut, however, swears allegiance only to a fair lady with big bine eyes—Is It not so?" she asked.

"I see I shall have to tell you who has the paper, since you are so dense you cannot guess it," she said. /'Mistress Resemary Allyn." "Ah!" I cried, "it could not be in better keeping. Tell her to guard it closely until such time as I shall ask it of her to return to the lady named within it. Bid her cherish the secret so the bloods about town, especially Raoul Dwight, get not hold of it. Give her also assurances of my affection, and whisper a good word for me into her dainty ear." "nave l not promised to speea your wooing? Is not Nell Gwyn's word worth something?" "Indeed, yes—and I thank you," I hastened to say. Before I left she gave me as much encouragement as this: that my lady was a wayward creature (as if I did not know), but if I would persevere —we—she would not say* hut I was vastly heartened; so a*uch so that fts I bent over her hand, saying my adieu, her saucy cheeks tempted me, remembering the time I had not hesitated.

Meyer was with the H^ei^, and one day, during one of Duller's attacks along the Tugela, he tool; a po.^i tlon on the firing line. The (ire from the British batteries across the river was very heavy during the preliminary part of the assault, and shells literally drained isrrttrelow lying kapjesoccTF5 pied by Botha's army. Meyer thought he saw a good opportunity to secure a line picture, and he jumped out of his "achanze" to snap it. Just then a big liddite shell exploded Within a few feet of him, killing him instantly. I afterward secured the camera, which was comparatively uninjured. When the film it contained was developed I discovered that Meyer had made a beautiful photograph of the huge shell which snuffed out ms Kfe. I sent a copy of the picture to his residence in Germany,—Every- ~ body's Magazine.— — tlvely contributed to the success of grange work as to dispel doubt as to Its value. There must be some injentive to action beyond the bare sense of duty in order to succeed in any undertaking or enterprise. The incentive may not be the real value or usefulness of the prize when obtained so I much as the spirit of competition : aroused in working to secure it This principle is recognized in many ways | and made effective in securing en* | thusiastic effort In many directions. . The prizes in the grange have been ! used for increasing the membership, increasing the attendance at meetings, perfecting the ritual work and improving the literary exercises. A prize being offered in each deputy district rehdefti the^^mpelltlbii Jlef&~on~i&~ count of contact and knowledge of progress being made by competitors ] and enables the award to be made by a deputy familiar with all the conditions. The decoration of grange halls i with .trophies won in these friendly contests—for competition is between granges rather than between Individual members—affords an Interesting exhibit to visitors and an inspiration for more zealous work on the part of members in future years. No enthusiastic sportsman decorates the walls of his rude camp In the forest or his elegant home in the city with trophies ! of the hunt or the chase with greater satisfaction than do the members of a victorious grange decorate the walls of their grange home with evidences of victory in the mental race stimulat- -ed-by-a weU~arrangedand appropriate! system of prizes.

A few days later the relative called and was admitted to the sickroom. Quickly turning on his pillow and without giving his caller time to extend the usual formalities, the sick man exclaimed, "My dear Louise, how can I ever thank you for those delicious brandied peaches?" "I thought you would appreciate .them, Alexander/' returned the caller modestly. "Ah, yes; ah, yes!" he assented, with a smile which broadened and finally broke into a chuckle that seemed almost noisy in the hush of the sick room, atf he added, "And how much more 1 appreciated the spirit in which they were seijt!"

The entere entertainment went off as skednled. Tbe curtain went up on the play at about 9 o'clock and for nearly two boors the audience were treated to one of the strongest and best plays ever put on the boards here. L. E. Smith proved his ability, not only to choose an excellent drama but to choose the right persons for each part and train them to almost perfection. Toe plot was deep but well carried out and irom Ebeneser the "coon" to Mark Lester and Olive Glenn, tbe principals, each part was well taken aiid tbe audience held in close attentit u to the grand oliroai in act IV. as they were unable to attend on account ot the weather, some of tbem even having tickets.

The play was marked for the absence of vulgarity, drinking scenes or any thing that would demoralize. It was chosen for the reason that it was a clean, moral play, one that would uplift an audience4nstead of degrade. The entire program, outside ot the orchestra, was by the company, Miss Moran and Mr. Kennedy sang,' and fhw Hanci hy .Uri»y .Inhnanp was an inovatioo as few thought Pinckney had a dancer of such ability. After the play supper was announced and the dance started as well, so all moved as smoothly as clock work, and by 1 o'clock all had been fed and the young people settled down for a fine time at the opera boose,, which lasted until 4 a. m.

Soot is composed of pure carbon and is formed by the hot vapor of the hydrocarbon canting from burning fuel striking the-cold walls of the chimney or stovepipe And condensing thereon. It is a very light porous and impalpable powder and, like charcoal, which is the same element in a. different form, possesses the property of absorbing and retaining a wonderful amount of gas. The great danger of disease about sewers, drains and other places is almost entirely due to gas given off by decomposing matter.

We notice that in some parts of New England the highway overseers, have abandoned the snow plow and are keeping the roads open by means of a wide, heavy roller made for the purpose. As the snow begins to drift the rollerJs run over the track and they soon have the roadway built up solid as high as the ordinary drifts. The snow then blows off, whereas after plowing or shoveling, ah©—«nt will speedily till up. The roller is made wide enough so that sleighs may pass on its track.—Milford times. Quite a good idea but a little too late to try this year and we hope there will never be just such a time again.

An Interview *tW th« K-JKh V A door opened and a. courtier (\t was my bete noire, Sir Raoul Dwifhi) came from the aaUrotii, into wbicb I wa« waiting to be admitted. It wii' evident that his Majesty's mission had not retained hitn from court so long as he had anticipated- A frown waa on his brow and his i<-' ¢ 1 [^"^t.- head hung. He would have passed me had not my deep kxtfr forced his eyes. The frown broadened, and a curse Durst from his sullen mouth. His hand slid to his sword. "Will *not to-morrow be time enough, 'Cousin Raoul'?" I asked. "Fore God! HI kill you then," he growled venomously, : "At your service," I said. My name being called, I turned my back upon him and walked to, the room where I was tfc have my inter* view with K$ng Charles II. Had Raoul Dwight a knife thea and no one been about I doubt not but that I should have felt it between my shoulders. HJs Majesty sat surrounded by his dogs, pulling the ears of one, slapping another- over the_ nose with iris iaeekerchief, chiding yet another who would be too fond. Doing thus he kept me standing, inwardly chafing at the delay. At last, tired of this play, he condescended nrspeaftT^&elore doing so, however, he gave the dog nearest him a vicious twist of the ear, which sent - shim yelping back of hla master's chair. "So," he said, "so this is the redoubtable Quentin Waters, son of that renegade Lord Waters of Long Haut, is it?" He looked at me long with a heavy frow.n on his thin face. Not an auspicious opening certainly. "Yes," I affirmed, "I am Quentin Waters at your command, sire." "Tfefcre is a fly on the waU^o the right; kill it," he command*}* The man proceeded upon tha chase. It required tome efforts His Majesty leaned back with halfrcloaed ares, waiting, while he Angered the long coat of one of his pets. Once he tapped his foot impatiently at' the man's delay. I watched the fellow with more Interest than the case demanded, and had I been In any other presence than the King's I should have laughed at his frantic movements and the cleverness of that small insect. At last lie had him—his day was done—the man held out his nand to his Majesty, and in his palm lay the crushed fly. "It is done, your Majesty," he said. The King commanded him to leave the room, and again resumed fats play. "I see," I said after a pause.. "A man's word goes for naught in King Charles' court. But your Majesty, if I have your permission, I will tell you my reason, or rather my mission in London." He nodded. Having successfully demonstrated his object lesson he was in a good humor. -"My: father, yxat: already, know,.is Lord Waters of Long Haut, and was Master of the Bed Chamber to Charles I." The King frowned, and I thought it best to get to the very gist of what I had to tell at once without any prefacing. "The two beings he held dearest in Hie were Hia= Majesty Kiog^Gharies I and his young wife. One night—it was the night of the 16th of January, 1639—being stationed in an anteroom by the express command of the King, a page came to him, saying, 'A message from the King.' Thinking it only an ordinary missive pertaining to the business on hand, he took it from him, opened and read it. Here is the paper." =3=5585 hwas. not light and he SQOB knew what.he feared.

"Crased he left the court, without seeing either the King . or Ills wife. Tl8 a matter of history how he Joined Cromwell, forsaking the King:** "Yes/' he cried impatiently. "But why did he not see the King and hare the note authenticated? Why act like a Jealous foot?" "Yes, w h y r I said. "He was tod sensitive, I think." "He had great provocation if it were true." he said, "but not enough, me* thinks, to join that assassin's army and give him service, and good aenrlegy too/' h* finished bitterly. "Not so good, perhaps, as Cromwell would have wished, however," I hastened to say, "else the war had been sooner ended and his Majesty a prisoner some months ere he was." "How so?" he asked. "After the battle of Marsden, Lord; Waters had the honor of taking his Majesty a prisoner," I said. "No? A.\ improbable tale," he cried. "I have proofs," I retorted. I held out to him the tiny brooch. He took it with a shaking, hand. "His! not a doubt of it," he whispered; "the martyred King's!" He got up and paced the floor, looking at the jewel in his palm. "Yes, as a child I have seen him wear it," he murmured. "By what macfateatfofiff dtd~Lord Waters obtain" this brooch?" he said cuttingly. "I told you, sire," I replied wfth dignity. He paced the floor with a more hurried tread, while he frowned and knit his brow in deep thought. He said: "Now, I remember having heard that after the battle of Marsden, being separatedfrom fats captured by a man serving on the other side, but when the man found that it was the King he held, he had released him, even given him safe conduct to his men, so that he should not be retaken. It was told me by General Lauderdale, to whom my father had related the incident. Strange! the King, my father, did not recognize so familiar a man at court as Lord Waters." "He was much changed, sire," I fnl to see that the iwjulstloai re1st= ing to saluting were faithfully observed. One day a -soldier who was leading an obstreperous mule to water and had both- *aa4a fully employed in .the task was met by the lieutenant.

"Meanwhile you spend your time -threatening a fair subject of mine with a meaningless piece of paper— profitable business, indeed," he sneered. Evidently Sir Rami Dwight had not had the ear of the King for naught. "Not so," I replied; "you, sir, have been misinformed. I threaten no lady." "Say you so?" he retorted.

"A forgery, as you say," I said; "and so Lord Waters, my father, in his later years came to think, but not at the time.

There he obtained a divorce from his wife, and, after living in retirement, married my mother, who died in childbirth. During the years of my minority the thought that he might have wronged the King and his first wife never left him. It made him what he has been ever since, a miserably sick man. Owing to* his condition he was not able to come himself, so he sent me to lay the matter before your Majesty and plead for forgiveness." I had finished and I knelt before him. "Tore God! you shall have It," he cried, as he motioned me to rise; "but it seems to me that 'tis to Lady Dwight you should go as your father's emissary to plead'for forgiveness." "Lady Dwight!" I exclaimed. I was too astonished to say more. "She is your father's divorced wife," he explained. "My father's wife!" I repeated. "Even so," he affirmed, none too patiently. Light dawned upon me and I understood my lady's fainting fit; she, too, was overcome by circumstances. "And Sir Raoul Dwight?" I questioned fiercely.

People with inflamed and aching joints, or painful muscles ; people who shuffle about with the aid of a cane or a crutch and ?ry, Oh ! at every slight jav, are constantly asking,"What is the best thing for rheumatism ?" To attempt to o»re rheumatism by ex » ! ' / » • I K: ff' ternal application!! is a foolish waste of time. The seat of the disease i» in the blood, and while the sufferer is rubbing lotions and grease on the skin the poison in the circulation is increasing. Delays in adopting a tsensiblo treatment1 axe dangerous because rheumatism may at any moment reach tho heart and prove fatal. The only safe course for rheumatic sufferers is to get the best possible blood remody at once. Mr. Stephenson's experience with this obstinate- and distressing affliction is that of hundreds. He says : M About a year ago I was attacked by sovere rheumatic i^ains in my left shoulder. The pains were worse, in wet weathes, and at these periods caused mo the greatest suffering. I tried a number of treatments and ointments, but they failed to alleviate the pains." Then he realized that the cause mu*t be deeper and the pain only a Surface indication. Ho adds: . " I had board Dr. Williams' Pink Pitis for Pale People recommended as a cure fox rheumatism, ai?d"Vfheu I feund that Iwns getting no relief from applications, I made up my mind ihat I would try taeni.

Canton has been called the "city of pagodas," since so many are to be seen of various sizes, but perhaps the most remarkable one_is.that located onLthe Island of Honam. Its tower alone is composed of eight tiers or stories, and rests upon a foundation which covers no less than seven acres of the island. ^Although the exterior walls of the base are worn and dilapidated by time and the elements, the-tower points far ""heavenward, terminating in a point, or minaret, which is the admiration of the artist; but every feature of the tower is artistic, .even to the gracefully curved cornices which mark each story. Chinese legends have it that this structure is fully 1,000 years old and engineers who have examined olas, parent*.are often surprised by the original views which the youngsters take, and by their presentation of views which, while they may be but partial, are at least correct and discriminating so far as they to. - It occurred t o n father, who noticed a carpenter hammering upon the roof 3rf a distant house} that he would give bis little son (8 years old) a lesson in physics by calling attention to tho fact that the blows of the hammer could he seen before the sound made by them could be heard, and explaining that the diference m time between the seeing of the blows and the searing of the noise was due to the fact that light travels much faster than subject by asking the boy If he understood why it was that he could see the hammer fall before he could hear the noise of the stroke. He was astonished to receive the reply. "Yes; it's because my eyes are nearer to the hammer than my cars." Finnish Bridal Gowns.

Under some circumstances I could mention no doubt, but that day after receiving the message time crawled. I watched the fading away of those last faint rays of light with Intense sat 1 «faction. Then 1 again mounted the stool and again looked abroad, Night had drawn her mantle over the land—not even a star gleamed in the sky. I listened to hear sounds outside my door, knowing my jailor must soon come witn-»y evening meal> Yes, J bad not long to wait ere I heard the shuffling footsteps of the man. He clanked his keys and. gave out an apologetic sniff, the usual thing, as he neared the door of my cell. The key moved hardly in the rusty hole, was turned with a doleful sound, half shriek half groan, the door moved back. "A little oil on the hinges, sirrah," I said, "woftld render it not so grating on the neryes. Faugh! Is this the food_ to serve a gentleman?" I added as I picked up the loaf of bread from the floory where he had set it together with £a Jug of water. My supper! I ordered him to take it away. v " T i s the usual prison Jare/' he sniffled; "if you want better you can pay for it." Then he backed toward the door. ^ o w tire old lasutd had drained me as dry as any goblet of sparkling wine was ever drained by horseman, and, as I had bought and paid most liberally for every meal I had eaten since I had entered the doors of this beastly place, this was adding insult to injury. .Knowing this, be dared place before me bread and water. It broke the camel's back. "Out of my sight, you miserable renegade," I cried starting r.p.

Do you think the King publishes to to the town every time he* takes a new favorite? Haste, haste man, one would think your fingers were all thumbs/' The key at last turned in its socket, and the door helped by Gil's foot opened* I waited for the cue from him. "Hia.Majesty^r£aEd8 an.audience with you, gracious sir," he said, bowing low, before me. "He grieves ttiat through some mistake you have been put to such dire distress." "Say no more," I replied. "I am as ever at his service." Again he bowed, and I that knew his every expression caught the flicker of amusement in hid eye. ''The horses are waiting, sir," he continued. "His Majesty expects you at Whitehall. He does npt like to wait." ""My cloak and- sword, airrah,^ I commanded. "I am all of a muck from your filthy cell." - "Here they are, sir," the jailor answered as he took them from the boy. "'Tis not my fault," he whined; "I only obey orders." 7 ^ ^ "Fault or no fault, out of the way, scullion," ordered Gil. ' hlumtb ly bowing apologetic fool and wveefnctt down the corridor and steep flight t)f stairs of the prison to the street door, which he opened. * In a circle at the entrance tojjrthe prison, bending in their saddles sat our mea of Long HauL It was dark —few Jinks about. I saw Torraine, who held Bunco, my horse, by the bridle, lean back and with his sword strike a link out of the hand of a man crowd jofcasMd.*»d iuhUeed Ilka- mad. That was an act that they could understand without any words. We galloped into Soathwark. There had^been i^^mf_,tor_jn^|u^l6iifi_ We stopped before the Tabard and eatered the tao room. Immediately a good meal was served; of which J felt In heed. From the way the men also did justice to it, one would have thought that they had not eaten, since leaving Long Haut. Torraine was a hard master when there was work on hand, and he and his men had not fj^Mpked on, the way. I soon satisfied my curiosity. I found that my linkman had not been so remiss as I had thought. He had sneaked bac* on the night of the arrest and following the coach in which I was confined learned where I was to be incarcerated. Hastening to Gil, he had acquainted him with the news. ^-or this he had won his horse, and a prouder man, although a more execrable rider, I never saw. Having no one to send to Long Haut for Torraine and his men whom he felt he would need.. Gil had gone himself. Thus while I had spent foor days and as many nights in jail Gil had spent them in the saddle. Truly he was a man of iron. It had told upon him, he was many pounds lighter and his moonjike face was haggard. While away he had left Fat to keep guard at the prison and find out which cell I occupied. This the man was able to do with a little judicious questioning. He was also to watch the movements of the arch fiend, Chief Justice Lord Jeffreys; not an arduous task, for that lord delighted in having ETsm brehiehts chronicled"Every - thing favored him. When the linkman met the party coming from Long Haut at the edge of Drury Lane—a meeting place previously decided upon— he told them that Lord Jeffreys THE STATE: LEGISLATURE. was to pass through Epping Forest in a few hours. They posted there in hot haste to await him, while Pat was S©-wtthout any Maj^mMB^Jh^^^ t©~tryHra*=*e**t**=4Be^ithOha iact-lhat-Jthey h.oped_to__effecL lease. How successful he was in this you know. My lord came all unconscious of the plot on foot. His attendants were with little effort overpowered. Then my lord, who deemed the men of Long Haut highwaymen (and surely a fiercer looking lot one would travel far to find), was soon compelled to sign the paper for my release. If he felt any of that terror with which he was wont to inspire Senator Jopes h># introduced a bill callirig f o ^ t a p p f A r i a t i o n of 150,000 pr the erection <fis"reformatory tor women. T n e measure does not specify where the institution shell be located, but Senator Jones wants it put up somewhere in St. Clafr county. Representative Eichborn, of Port Huron, has a similar bill in the house. The bill providing for a bounty of 2 cents a head on sparrows was passed by the house. It applies in only those counties whose boards of supervisors \ote for it. ' The house military committee has reported favorably the bill to double the annual appropriation for naval reserves, in order that three new divisions may be formed and that two cruises' may be arranged for on the Y antic." There is talk of forming new bodies of reserves at Bay City, the Soo and on Lake Michigan., The bill however, must still go to the committee on ways and means. Senator Brown's primary election bill for the whole state will probably be Introduced early next week. It will provide for the direct election of delegates to state conventions and for uniform caucus daya, but the people are not under its terms to vote directly on the nomination of any state candidate. One of the most interesting features of the bill will be a provision that saloons must be closed on primary days as they are now supposed to be on election days. At the session of the house Monday evening the nomination of Speaker Master for circuit judge of the Ninth circuit was observed by handclapping and a resolution, expressing high esteem, etc. As speaker Master will vacate his present position in case he is elected circuitiudj^^thjere is already some speculation as to his successor In the chair of the house. In this talk t'.ie name of Representative George Loud, of Detroit, is being used a great deal, as he retired from the race at the beginning of thissession with the good will of Master's friends.

Scott City, Kan., March 20tb—(Special.)— Almost every newspaper tells of cures of the most deadly of kidney diseases by Dodd's Kidney Pills. Bright's Disease, Diabetes, Rheumatism and Bladder troubles, in fact any disease that is of the kidneys or caused by disordered kidneys is readily cured by this great American remedy. But it is in curing the earlier stages of kidney complaint that Dodd's Kidy_ Pills- _axe_doing their_ greatest work. They are preventing thousands of cases of Bright's disease and other deadly ailments by curing Kidney Disease when it first shows Its presence in the body.

Moreover all through our talk he seemed preoccupied— something was wrong—for Gil loved to be pitted against obstacles— it was as the very breath of his nostrils—and this little episode had been too satisfactory for him not to feel elated at its outcome. Had he not met his old friend the petit constable and had he not gone down before him? 'What is it, Gil," said I. "Bad news, my lord," he replied. "What?" I cried.

"You wont be so high and mighty in a few weeks," he said, retreating down the hall. I could not bear the looks of this bloated old hypocrite. In Cromwell's time/he had been one of those to persecute any Cavalier who happened from various, reasons to come under his-care. To save his neck he now paid the same considerate attention to his old friends who stood to their convictions. He w.as Intensely repulsive to me.

It was composed of the common lag of the town, the usual rabble that congregate when there was anything out of the ordinary going on. It was dark in our immediate ring, but light enough in the outer one. In its midst I saw, heard, and recognized our old friend, the petit constable of the White Swan inn, and so did Gil. It did not need his whispered word, "Haste," to make me leap Into my saddle. The constable was trying to force his way through the crowd, who had begun to suspect that all was not right. While some laughingly helped him on his way, -others, while not seeming to do so, did much to impede his progress. We could hear his voice above the roar of the ever larger growing crowd, which was pushing us hard, crying, "An escape—to the res* cue." "Cut through them," ordered Gil. Turning we charged the crowd with drawn weapons, slapping them back gun my journey I met a man coming from Long Haut with the sad news." "When did he die?" I asked.

The arbitration committee then told the bene that if they persisted i n t h e strike they ,would bring race suicide on themselves. Then a w i s e old hen arose and spoke a s follows: "In the spring when u s hens wish t o sit the people give us porcelain doorknobs t o s i t on.

DIAMONDS AND THE POTATO. Precious Stones Add Nothing to the World's Real Wealth. The discovery in the Transvaal of a diamond valued at $2,500,000 inspires M. Harduin in Le Matin to ask whether the precious stone represents new capital—that is, a new source of wealth. | "The only real capital," he says, j "is that which gives birth to—new--j wealth directly to the profit of its : owner and indirectly to the profit of j the community. This is what will | happen*— When4h«=eompaAy^ owning, the diamond sells it it will receive j money. This money it will IhvWrand \ lay by the interest. But since the < purchaser, who has parted with $2.- i 300,000, will lay by nothing, = it will come to the same thing. The whole'! operation, therefore, is reduced to a; simple shitting of capital. | "This conclusion follows: Billions : of dollars' worth of diamonds may be dug out of the earth and the wealth ' oC the_who!e human.race willnot be \ increased by a single cent, foF~lhi"s [ capitaLjdces not really exist.

I have found that it is possible to \ learn much from the wet places in ; the fields in springtime as to the kind i of drainage that is necessary. We find on some of our farms that the ; water in the soil takes certain courses in the lower strata and only shows i the wettest places when the soil is , full of water, which usually occuis ; in springtime. We cannot always tell j 1 y levels just what part of the farm | needs drainage most. There are, we I will say, two spots equally low and \ each equally able to be drained. But ( in one the water goes off quickly in j a wet time and in the other remains ; tor weeks. One is tapped by a layer of .coarse gravel, j.vhile the other is | simply surrouhffeTl by sjil little perj vious. It is evident that the latter ! place should receive the first attenj tion.

To nnd out whether seeds are capable of producing plants requires neither eypert knowledge nor special «« aratus. Satisfactory material is to be found in every farm home, for making germination tests of pracU cally any kind of teed used on the farm. The simplest and most convenient way to test coed of corn and other cereal grains ai;d most of the root crop a/id larger vegetable seeds is to place a number of them—say one hundred—between pieces of moistened blotting-paper, Canton' flan^ ! nel or cloth; set them in an ordinary I dinner plate and invert another plate i to cover them. The seed should b? kept- moiC\ but not wet. The tem- | peraturc of lus average farmhouse ! living room would be quite suitable. , but some care should be taken to •( guard against excessive heat or cold. All gocd L*rong seed of corn, cereal grains, clovers or timothy thus treated will have germinated at the end of five days. Very small seeds of tno j finer grasses, of some of the garden vegetables and of bee'ts or mangels may be germinated to better advantage by scattering them in a saucer (belonging to a flower pnt) that has j been soaked in water, and set on a ' cloth that should be kept damp, or in Character in Laughter.

ANDREWS A CO. PROPRIETORS. THURSDAY, MAR. 30,1905. The Parcels Post y*L That the interests opposed to the ' parcels post are much alarmed is shown by the violent editorials against the system, which are appearing in the prominent papers. These edi torials are doubtless inspired and paid for by the expree's company trust, and other organized .nterests that the parcejs post would doubtless in a degree injure. Some suggest that the parcels post is "rank socialism". The word "socialism" is used with more or less effect to alarm timid people. A parcels post no more savors ot socialism than a letter post. A number of cities supply their own water works, their own gas, electric li#trts-< and street railway systems to the great vantage oi the exchequer ot the and with a great lessening of rates to . all the inhabitants. Nobody) is hurt" tad the monopolists who woffld like to have the franchise for furnishing water, light and transportation and air if they could monopolize it and to charge their own prices therefor. The parcels post will force the express companies down to a reasonable point or drive them out business. Hence it is most strenuously opposed by..theex-'. press companies and their attorneys in Congress.

The furnace was completely wrecked, the top being blown off and dislocated at almost every joini. The whole bouse shook BO violently that lamps which were resting on the mantel pieces were shaken off on the floor. Benefit Concept t»u Friday evening!

When I went out there 1 bad never heard of a (ilia, but after I bad seen one and its effect I never wanted to see another. One afternoon while riding past a house, or, rather, hut, belonging to one of the herders of a ranch near by I heard a clatter and, turning, saw a man come galloping down the road. A child about two years old had just come out of the house and was toddling across the road. The horseman paid no attention to it. I thought he didn't see the little fellow, but he did, for Just before reaching him he gave a whoop, cutting at him at the same time with his quirt. The child, too young to heed, stooped to pick up something that pleased its baby fancy. The horseman rode straight over him. . The boy's mother came to her door just in time to see what had occurred. With a shriek she rushed to her child, picked him up and ran with him into the house. I would hav* followed to administer to her, but there were others with her, and, to tell the truth, I had no heart for the work. The man rode on to a saloon-fartherjip the road, where he dismounted and went inside. I have never felt so ashamed of myself for omitting to do what honor seemed to call for as in thls^caleT^Tir —tried not to touch It; perhaps it war good luck; perhaps an interposition ot Divine Providence. Be this as It amy, the child, though severely injured. lived. But the man who had sought to kill It—day after day, night after uight, we heard the maniacal cries In his delirium and agony. It was a terrible but deserved retribution: One day he found relief, and the next the child he hud sought to kill toddled out, and all who saw him rejoiced that It was his would bo murderer and not he who had succumbed.

For several years1 the complaints about Sunday ^hunting have increased every year the east I would uot hesitateto protect a lady from a rurtian, yet here was a womau whose child had been purposely trampled before her eyes, and I did not raise a hand to avenge her. But what could I do? Any interference on my part must result either >h my death or that of the man who Intel committed the outrage. / I reported the matte/to the owner of the ranch, who told/me that the boy's father was in his employ and.was|_then_ away herding caitile. There was a feud between him and t and clespera^ vagabond who hail ridden down the child to avenge some fancied Injury. When the father returned one or the other would doubtless blje the dust. "And if the father falls there will be two7 victims Instead of one," I remarked. / "We can't help that out here," replied my Informant. "There's.too little law to cover such cases." The next morning while riding over the plain I came upon the child's mother. She carried a stick and a coarse bag and was evidently looking for something. I did not see her face, for her back was turned. Suddenly I saw her raise the stick and strike-at something on the ground. In" a few moments she picked up what resembled a young alligator, holding it by the tip of the tall, dropped it in the bag, tied up the bag's mouth and carried her 'burden away, holding It apart from her. 'Then she turned and came toward me. I would have liked to ask her what she had been about, but there was a look In her face that decided me not to question her, and she passed on without seeming to be aware of my presence. Curiosity got the better of me, and I turned and followed her. She went to the saloon up the road, and before reaching it I saw a man asleep on the porch, though I could not see who he was. The woman drew near him stealthily, pausing occasionally, with her eye fixed on him, till at last, coming upon him from a point where he -could not see her, she untied the mouth of her bag, held it above him, and the alligator thing it contained fell on his breast. The man started up and on seeing what had awakened him gave a cry as piercing, as full of despair, as had been given by the woman when her child was run down. I saw him struggling with something that had fastened upon one of his hands and finally throw it-from him. It crawled away, and I saw it no more. The woman turned and walked tow-ard her home. I had seen the dreaded Gila monster. The woman had learned that her" enemy, was asleep on the saloon porch and, going out on the plain, had found a Gila. When attacked the monster feigned to be dead.

Willard and in a large and truer sense as a tribute to a woman and the magnificent progress she has made under our free institutions. *It might be asked why should the state of Illinois, which has produced so many illustrious men offer the statue of a woman, the first to be placed in yonder hall among warriors and stategmeffrpmneers and discoverers who have wrought mightily for their country on the field of battle, in the halls of Congress on the frontier and in civil life? The Illinois legislature, without the slightest disrespect to her great sons, in its wisdom believed that the time had come when woman should be honored and when her statue should be placed in the Ameican Pantheon, and j who shall say that woman has no right there?

Her cloak had slipped from on* them. Small blame to h i m ; doe* "not a strong man always admire a beautiful woman? It required a s l u r p kick, which Gil meant to be secretly given, but was only too evident, 4 o - m a k e him ^wrtl himself together and drop his eyes abashed before Gil's stern oues. His consternation ' a n d ' loud "ouch!" caused tfcejjt>ett.to laugh; even the lady smiled.' Upon which he heartened hiiuself to another peek, but Gil would ^have none of that. He marshaled the men quickly and hastened their exit from the room. 1 Gil was following, but when he heard the next words of Lady Felton's he stopped. "One of your men betrayed you," she said. " Tis Jim Scrugs, the traitor!" Gil cried, and he put himself through the opening after Toiraine and his men. I felt pity ?,tir within me iox the fellow, traitor though he was. I knew what the reckoning would be when "You are wet. Lady Felton. come nearer the fire." I said, and took hpr the floor some day—but t h e night being fine and I wanted a r u l e to blow away the megrims." I was amused a t my sweetheart. She was piqued about something. At my look of incredulity—I glanced at the window where the rain beat against the pane with a clicking s o u n d ^ s h e instantly added: "Oh, it h a s . only been raining a short time. Moreover D r e a m , H o u s e was so dreary; Aunt Elaine had'gone to bed, that I was like to die of ennui, so I welcomed Nell's message." "You need make no more excuses, Lady Felton," I retorted. "Could you not have ser.t some o n e ? " "There was no one," she replied. - ''Nell wbuld--*e*er J i a v e f o r g i v e n me if word had not been gotten to you." " N e l l s a charming creature," said I stung by my lady's way of putting it. "Charming indeed," she admitted loyally. Then: "I see, sir, that you, too, * follow the fashion set by the King. Wouldst rival him? Have a care." "Rival the King?" I exclaimed. "Not I." "You would not be the only one. Really she has enough lovers," she said, with a shamed lilt in her voice. "Amen to that," I said fervently. "She and Lady Felton have between them, 'tis said, scoured all London till there is not a creature upon two legs .but—swears fidelity-to either one or the other. London is agog with their amours. In Nell's case it may be true. hnt jas for Rosemary Allvn^ Lady of Felton, I think she is too proud to give her lips to be kissed 0tl hand in u.ine. "Did y n i not understand m e ? " she queried with dilated eyes. "I said the gurrds would be here in twenty mfnutfvj_ or less." _ "T1 .?nty minutes is a long time," I ans-.« .red as I drew her before the rii>* *ud seated her. ' i'as your prison then %so enjoyby any one but the man she loves." I looked down deep into her heart through clear mirrors, and what. I saw made me tingle through all my being .responsive^ — "I believe you are right, sir," she said. Then—"But I have not told you how Nell found out that the inn was to be surrounded and you recaptured, ] *.re priitm'-r, and he himself hastened to t h e King to explain the outrage to him His Majesty, being for the time a t outs with Lord Jeffreys, never gave him the chance for explanations, but enjoyed the Johe witl* i!ie rest. Now my lord, you know, 1B rightfully hated by many; BO tneir contempt was too much for him, anu with aa face purple with rage he left the room in a huff. His Majesty, however, laughed another kind of laugh when, later dining with Nell, it waA brought to his notice what Lord Jeffreys had signed—the pardon of a young man, Quentin Waters by name, whom he himself had had confined in Ludlow. The way of this was, a young man (it was no doubt Jim Scrugs) importuned to see the King. Now every one knows that nothing puts the King in an ill-humor so quickly as to be disturbed in bis amours. .But t h e man insisted BO persistently upon an interview' t h a t they at last took him to the King, where he explained all, and that you were to be caught napping here." She stopped a m o m e n t I did not feel so much pity for the fellow as I had. He had been taught to know at Long Haut how summarily traitors were dealt with. "Nell tried to make the King still see it in the light of a joke," she continued. "She brought her most daring mimicry into play; but cajole she ever so much it was of no avail. The gross insult to his Majesty must be avenged. He gave the order for your rearrest. Nell, finding' she could not turn the King frdm his set purpose, sent me word by Mister Arnold, who wished to come with ine, but I insisted upon his going back, for after your escape some one might remember that he had left the ball room and that he was your friend." She had finished. A 480-AC RE FARM Y I E L D S 26 PER CE7NT PROFIT IN A YEAR. "It is a rare delight to m e to see you, and I thank you," I said, "but you should have let him come with -you; i t was ^s-dangecous thing to d< "Twenty minutes, as you said, is -a—long time," she merely—observed, I drew her before the fire and seated her. tt • t able you would court it again?" she asked. "G>d forbid!" I muttered. "I am afraid you will take cold—you are wet." I t o u c h e d her dress lightly with my hand. "Poof, no, only my cloak," she said; "I'm as dry—as an empty glass." She glanced at the array of empty bottles and glasses still upon the table. "How stupid of me." I cried, and rapping on the table I ordered wine and supper for the lady. "No. no. only a glass of wine," she said, "I am thirsty with the ride." "I should think you well might be," said I. I poured her a glass of wine which the landlord immediately brought. As 1 hold her cloak before the flame to dry it I devoured her sweet face with eager eyes. 1 would have taken her hand again, but I saw that my proud lady would have no love making in a tavern. Indeed h e r eyes looked so coldly into mirie 1 wondered if perchance I had dreamed dreams and seen visions four nights agone in t h a t old mansion of Lord Felton's? "I take it as a great honor. Lady IVIton. that you should have ridden all this distance to warn me," I said linaiiy. ~ ' T u t not the credit upon my shoulders." she returned, and she shrugged and I must hurry, the time will soon be up. You must know first that there are higli doings at Whitehall to-night —a dance, and then the King dines with Mistress Nell. Poor me. is kept at home, 'In sooth,' sayeth ma tante, 'it is not seeming in an Allyn to take up with all the wild doings of a dissolute c o u r t . ' " She mimicked Lady Dwight to a nicety. '^So I am kept at home as close as a babe in swaddling clothes. Moreover she has heard rumors that the King has cast his eye upon a new face which suits his fancy. It was at t h e last ball that the King commanded that I dance with him, so she draws her inference from this, that mine m u s t be the face he admires. Her eyes are ever upon me and I am kept from court functions, lest I fall a victim to his Majesty's fascinations. She regards Mistress Nell with slight favor, and as for Lady Castlemaine she is quite beyond the pale. Well to continue, in the early hours of the ball the rodm was agog with a scandal. Lord Jeffreys had been halted in Epping forest by a gang of men—highwaymen, anrl made to sign a paper it was supposed for a large sum of money. They left him tied and gagged in the Forest Lodge, -not a very dignified manner for his lordship. A message revealing this state of.- affairs some- X riTose adorable ones set about With lace. "It was forced upon me. I could scarce help but oome when *so sweet an one as Nell Gwyn sent me word, and asked mo to see that you had warning. Indeed, I would not have come even for her—she may tak« care of her own lovers; I have oft'told her that sitting upon so many SUK;!S -she'll e'en find herself upon how came to the King's-ear,- a n d he sent to the lodge to find out if it were true. They found my Lord Jeffreys tied fast and madder than a baited bear. I assure you the tale lost none in the telling and 'retelling as It ran from mouth to mouth in the ball room, provocative of much laughter and merriment. It seems that it was hot for a sum of money btit t o e release of a prisoner that he had signed t h e paper. .His l o r d s h i p freed at once sent a constable to apprehend "and it must be nearly up." "Twenty minutes is all too short for me," I returned. "I would have it twenty times twenty, and times t h a t again—and—so as to stretch those minutes somewhat I sliall take you home." "Torraine can escort the lady back and meet us at t h e marsh west of the town," put i n Gil as if he had settled TRe"quesi lorn "The noises are at the south wall, by the old well. It lacks a T e w mlhutes of "the time:1' "You have planned very well, Gil," said I, "save in one particular, I, not Torraine, will take the lady back to town." "No, no," Rosemary cried; "Gil is right. You might be captured on the way." I smiled a t her, nor was I to be persuaded from .my purpose. Gil opened his mouth to argue the point, but I cried: "Quick,. they are here—to your men. They are evidently sure of their man, they come with so robust a tread." He rushed from the room.' I blew out the light. Taking .both tho lady's cloak and my own, I grasped her hand. Thus we followed mine host of the Tabard through a pantry door, down the kitchen garden path to the south w*all, where he immediately left us, hastening back. Rosemary and I, standing hand in V/hat a Mercer County (Ohio) Farmer Received from One Year's Crop. E x t r a c U from an interesting letter flora P. H ftynhard, of Starbuck, Manitoba, Canada, gives an excellent idea of the prosperity of those who have gone from the United States to Canada. He says: "I bought, August, 1963, 480 acres of land, paying $12,000- for it. We threshed 2,973 bushels of wheat and between 1.200 and 1,300 bushels of oats and barley from 20O acres. But part of the wheat went down before filling and was not harvested except for hay. The crop was worth at threshing time, $3,000. Besides 120 acres laying idle except a timothy meadow, which is not included in this estimate. Counting the value of the pioduct and the increase of value of land will pay me more than 25 per cent on the investment. Two brothers in the same neighborhood bought 160 acres each six years ago. They have not done a single thing to this land except to fence it and break and cultivate about one-half of it. Harvested last year 28 bushels wheat per acre. This year 27 bushels per acre. They can get any day $25 per acre. These are only a few of many hundreds of such chances. It looks like boasting, but truth is justifiable and the world ought to know it, especially the home-seeker. I know of quite a few farmers t h a t have made for* tunes in fiom 10 to 20- years, retired v-ith from $20,000 to $100,tH)0. Writing concerning another district in the Canadian West, S. L. Short says: "Dear Sir—I have to inform you that I have just returned from the Ci-rrot River Country in Saskatchewan, where I located land of the very QOOO ADVICE FOR A L L .

"Dogs have a variety of gaits," said the boss of the kennels, "therefore 1 can't understand why it is that people who describe a certain style of locomotion always call it a dog trot. Judging by the universality of that expression, a body would think that n dog never moves any other way than on a trot. But he does. All the gaits belonging to other four-footed animals are also his. He runs, he lopes, he even racks and paces, so when a. person in a hurry fails into a peculiar kind of canter, there would be just as much sense in speaking of his gait as a dog run or a dog gallop, once in a while, as always to call it a dog trot." , Weave Silk at Home.

The voice of Torraine rose above it all, growling like a bear over a carcass. With Gil it was different. He never uttered an unnecessary word—a name called sharply, a jesture o r wave of his sword was enough to the men, who knew him. 1 understood affairs. Gil was keeping the men from entering the inn as long as possible. Presently we heard the crash of the heavy oaken door, accompanied by a shout. The Guards rushed for the tap room. I felt Rosemary's hand tremble in mine. I pressed her fingers warmly to reascurc her, and now considered it time to mount our horses, which we could barely discern" in the gathering fog. The mizzle had ceased. W h a t happened after the King's Blues forced the t a ^ room door, I learned later fror. Gil. He chose from among our men one about my height, and had him in the tap room almost as soon as I had left it. He told Jiira to stand where the firelight would throw his shadow out upon the wall, so that those outside might see it. The Guards advancing saw and immediately fell into the trap. They shouted with loud cries of exultation, as they rushed for the doors and win- TTOW?:— ' — * ~ ~ ~ When the Blues entered, the man, as if taken by surprise, made a dash for the kitchen. The crowd clattered after him. He led them a.lively dance about the kitchen, knocking down pots and pans.

Toledo, Ohio, March 27th—(Special.) —Harry T. Lewis, the well known dentist of 607 Sumit street, this city, Is telling of his remarkable cure of Kidney Disease by using Dodd's Kidney Pills. '•I was fiat on my back and must say I had" almost given up all hope of ever getting any help," says Dr. Lewis. "My kidneys had troubled me for years'. The pains In my back were severe and I had to get up several times at night. I tried different medlci- nes but kept on getting w.orse till I was'jaid up. "Then a friend advised me to try Dodd's Kidney Pills and In about two weeks I started to improve. Now I am glad to admit I am cured and I cannot praise Dodd's Kidney Pills too highly." Kidney Pills RESTORED HIS H A I R Scalp Humor Cured by Cuticura Soap and O i n t m e n t — A f t e r All Else Had Failed. "I was troubled with a severe scalp humor and loss of hair that gave me a great deal of annoyance and inconvenitnee. After unsuccessful efforts with many remedies and so-called nair tonics, !\ friend induced me to try Cuticura Soap and Ointment. T h e humor was cured in a short time, my hair was restored as healthy as ever, and I can gladly say I have since been fntirely free from any further annoyance. I shall always use Cuticura Soap, and I keep the Ointment on hand to use as a dressing for the hair and scalp.

The Stone primary bill was before the house for three hours W e d n e s d a y and after a lively—scrap w a s referred back t o the c o m m i t t e e on elections by a vote of 52 to 41, not a happy augury for the amendment of the bill, or that anything further will be done with it. T h e Dill w a s reported about three w e e k s ago and c a m e up a t a special order. It was claimed that s o many imperfections w e r e lodged i n t h e bill that the measure would bo of doubtful value, even if the doubt a s to £ e constitutionality of t h e clause providing that t h e bill Should b e submitted t o the people before becoming a law, were dispelled. It w a s urged that t h e Republican platform adopted under strenuous conditions a t Grand Rapids did n o t propose t o g o s o far a s t h e bill proposed, and that a bill for local option shoo Id take its place. The situation Is this: T h e house a s constituted i s against direct nominations for all s t a t e candidates and U n i t e d S t a t e s senators and such a hill properly framed would n o t pass. The time i s Blipping away and t h e preparation of a bill that will satisfy the administration and pass will be a work of several w e e k s , in fact the April elections will pass into history before definite action i s taken. During t h e debate KepresentaTTve uaioraith, w h o h a a made the motion t o refer the bill back, said: "We are breaking n o party pledges. Let us consider all the bills introduced on this subject and n o t rush blindly into indiscreet legislation." Representative H o l m e s asked w h a t Galbraith proposed t o do with t h e Stone bill and the a n s w e r dealt in generalities. "I s e e the rjentleman from Calumet doesn't want to a n s w e r the question," said Holmes. "Let me Interrupt," shouted Galbraith. "I may say that those who are pledged to t h e Republican platform are pledged to kill this particular bill," and the whole s c h e m e was laid bare. _ _.

In a clump of brushwood near the village of Waucedih. where it is supposed to have lain since th» morning of November 27 last, the mutilated corpse of Donald J. Tellier, the alleged murderer of Albert NowsbipT was found within 100 yards of the cabin in which the crime of four mouths ago was committed. The body was suspended about three feet from Ihe ground and flrnily wedged in ihe crotch of a dead tree. There was a double-barreled breech-loading shotgun pointing directly at the corpse. The barrels of the gun were heavily encrusted with rust, while in the breach were two exploded shells. PYom the rather peculiar aspect of the surroundings and in view of certain testimony elicited at the inquest held shortly after the murder of Nowship last November, a jury was convened and a verdict -of suicide rendered. The theory is that Tellier killed Xowship with one barrel of buckshot and immediately afterwards walked to a nearby spot and there, by a most bizarre method, emptied the contents of the remaining cartridge into his own breast. While the face anil neck of the corpse were horribly mutilated through the depreciations of prowling wild animals, the clothed portions of the body were well preserved, and Dr. Hernard W. .Tones, of Vulcan, who perfbrmed ihe autopsy, readily located the wound and the course taken by the charge of shot.

When they had satisfied their thirst, bound up their scratches, and laughed a little over little incidents in the affray, they began to parley with the prisoner, Quentin Waters by name.

"I sincerely hope the fates will keep hor from your room to-night until you are safe at home and snuggled in your bed," I said quite devoutly. "Oh! you must know that Aunt Elaine loves me dearly," she explained. "I can twist her about ray fingers as I can one of my rings." "As you do all who come near you," I affirmed. "Not so," she quickly retorted; "you yourself are not so amenable." "I?" I questioned in astonishment. "Is there anything I would not do for you, consistent with my honor?" "Then in earnest of what you say I have a request to make of you," she whispered: "Dear Rosemary, I beg of you not to hesitate," I pleaded. "I would borrow the locket you wear upon your breast," she said co- ' ! shall have it reset when I return— with the other jewels to deek my bride." "You are going?" she questioned. "To Long Haut on a sorrowful errand— to bury my father," I said. . "Your father is dead!" she exclaimed in an awe-stricken voice. "Yes," I TKplied, "I only learned the sad new* to-night from Oil. I never knew tny father as a well man —God rest his soul! After J have laid him to. rest among his ancestors in the old church of Long Haut, I will return, yes in five days I shall be here to finish a task, over which God forgive me!

Then after a slight pause: "It is late (Gil will be waiting, poor fellow; I have taxed his strength to the utmost)—although I long' to stay with you, I must be on my way—Good bye, good bye, sweet!" I took her in my arms and this time she did not deny me; I kissed her lips. I watched her into the house and waited until I heard the door close and heard her say, "Oh, Moffetf how you frightened m e ! " Then I turned and remounting my horse rode slowly out of the grounds.

I said, "we will ride for the bridge; we shall have time 1O <ross it before the guards will have reached it and can station men there —trust Gil for that."

I continued; "I would all the world might know 1 am your lover." Certainly she should wear the locket; I hesitated not a moment upon •that point. It was a small thing to do for Rosemary—and I would take the paper out. Upon second thought I decided to let it remain where it was.

So murmuring I awakened. I was dreaming=,J=-w€ts= atr- the l o d g e r a n d with Lord Felton was again playing Top-Working Apple Trees. Some time past there was an article in the Review, in regard to grafting old apple trees to make them productive, which I think is misleading. I have been engaged in the nkrsery business for the past fifty years\ and in that time have grafted a g^eat many old trees of nearly all varieties that grow in this" climate. If you have trees of good varieties that have become feeble and that have ceased to be productive, the best thing to do is to prune heavily and spread a good wagon load of manure around the tree. A great many make a mistake by throwing the manure in a pile near the tree. The fertilizing material that supports the tree and makes the fruit is taken up by the smali fibers at the extreme out end of the roots. The roots will extend outward from twelve to sixteen inches from the tree every year. So' a tree twenty years old should have the fertilizer scattered at a distance of not less than twelve feet. The large roots merely act as a conveyor of the fertilizer to the tree. But If your tree is thrifty and in healthy condition, but bears little fruit or of inferior quality, the best thing is to top-graft with some good variety j that bears in your locality, and, if I given good attention, it will bear i finely in three years. In top-grafting, cut all the limbs that have an upright j growth where they are from one-half EFFECTS OP PROSPERITY. In the six years at the country^ greatest prosperity, from 1897 to 1903» average prices of breadstulfs advanced 65 per cent., meats 23.1 per cent, dairy and garden products 50.1 per cent, and clothing 24.1. All these were products of the farmer and stockman who profited more than any other class of the community by these advance*. The miner benefited 4S2.1 per cent by that advance in the average price of metals. The only decrease in th+ average prices of commodities in that period, was in railway freight rates which decreased from .798 per tonmile in 1897 to .763 in 1903, a loss of 4.4 per cent. The report of the In* terstate Commerce Commission shows that the average increase in the pay of railroad employes In the period was a trifle above 8.5 per cent. >$•'. Two Wise Reflections. If it be my lot to crawl, I will crawl contentedly; If to fly, I will fly with alacrity; but as long as I can possibly avoid It I will never be unhappy.

"You idiot," I stormed, "will you keep still?" The figure came tip-toeing to my side. I yawned, and then rubbed my eyes. It was "pretty Alice Lynson," as you please. "You—you," I said wonderment in my voice. "Pretty Alice Lynson, on my life 'tis—pretty Alice Lynson," I repeated dryly, "what do you here?" "Oh. sir, sir." she blubbered, and with the tail of her gown she wiped away the tear from her eyes. "God in heaven but I am glad—I never thought to hear you speak rationally again." I looked at her inquiringly. "Kind sir," she said, "you have been most grievously hurt." "Hurl," I "repeated. "Yes," she nodded. "Struck up'on the head.

I questioned. "Here?" she repeated. " 'Tis hut a poor room that I rent from day to day." / "I see." I said whimsically, "I should have said how came I here?" "It is a long tale." she began, "and I am afraid the chirurgeon will not want me to talk to you for fear of your fever coming back." "Never mind the chirurgeon." said I "I am more like to die of impatience if you keep me long waiting. But first ask Gil to stop his jabbering there in the corner—tell him to come here—why doesn't he come here— perhaps I can induce him to satisfy my curiosity, since you are so reluctant." She did not move from my side. "Gil, Gil," I cried. I marveled that my voice gave out so small a sound. "Oh. sir," she said. "I'm afraid you will do yourself harm. Drink this, please, and then I will tell you what I know." She took a cup from among the bottles on a chair near the bed, and put it to my lips. I meekly drank.

Hur Two Smites [ O r i g i n a l ] Owen Harding possessed a genial dis position, whieJUwus concealed under a forbidding countenance. The comers of his moulh were drawn down, and when he smiled they refused, to be druwn up. The consequence was a mingling of a smile in the eye and a crusty look about the mouth that was by no means pleasing. Harding possessed a very g >od mind. l i e wais original and entertaining, but tins, especially among young people, counted for nothing. .When he perpetrated a witticism accompanied by what in another would have been a droll expression the result was a combination of smile, and acerbity that was very unpleasant. One girl only seemed to be able to chat with Harding without laughing at him, Rebecca Payne, b u t Miss Payne was the daughter of a poor clergyman and merely tolerated in society —well, because stfe had neither wealth nor that faculty of assumed graciousness to the members of her set which in society people is often .accompanied by liugraciousness to those v;ithout theiiv set. She was, however, intellectual, and some o f the more appreciative members took her up. But none of the socially prominent young men paid her any attention, and this was a backset for her. When it was noticed that the only attendant she could rely upon was Harding her fate, socially considered, was sealed. Harding's occupancy of the social position to which he was entitled was confined to one winter. The next society saw him no more. H e disappeared for live years. At the end of that period one of the aristocratic churches of the place where ho had been born ami reared needed a mblister.

That smile captivated every woman present, and there was not a girl unbespoken who did not resolve t h a t , if Mr. Cummings were called and accepted the call she would set her cap for hint, for it was known that he was both unmarried and rich. When the congregation left the church there was n- hum of praises intermingled with query auid counter query from those who had known Harding as to whether he and Cummings could possibly be one person. Then it was learned that the clergyman's name was Harding-Cummings, the latter name having been taken to fulfill the provisions of a fortune. This settled it that Cummings was none other than Owen Harding, who had been the laughingstock of his acquaintances for a diabolic smile that had since become seraphic. A thousand tongues were set babbling not at the young minister's eloquence, but at the transformation of his facial expression. As people once a&ked concerning a newly risen literary star, "Where did she get that style?" asked •>;:,• ,,.' ., ,, Y,; ';euMomon smoking after a dinner parly, "did Harding get rid of that diabolic expression he once wore?" "I can enlighten you." said a prominent siu'geci. "I carve.1 It otit of him." At the moment the reverend gentlen a n referred to entered the room and overheard the reply. "The doctor made a very good Job )f my case," he said. "I'm thinking 3f employing him to make a similar transformation In a psychological way imong the more hardened sinners erf Day congregation." F.

Mr. Cummings became the pastor of the church, and fifty-young ladies in j and out of the congregation, all socially prominent, made a dead set for him. It must not be supposed that Mr. Cummings' eloquence or his heavenly smile would have alone led these young ladies to covet bim for a husband. It was the eloquence and the smile supported by his great wealth. The minister showed no preference for any of them, which made the race all the more exciting. Young women who five years before had made no attempt to conceal their laughter at his unfortunate expression when he made a droll remark did not now scruple to remind him of their enjoyment of what they called his sparkling wTit. The clergyman smiled pleasantly on them, although one of his best friends remarked that it was to be hoped he had his old smile at home, where he might put it on after some of these flattering reminders. Mr. Harding-Cummings had been pastor of the church a year, and the battle of the beauties for his possession was at its hottest when the brigade was panic stricken by the announcement that he had ijoue away to be married.

Particularly Adapted for Crossing Rivers, Gorges and the Like. A novel railway system has been invented by Abraham Abelson of New York city. <Thls system is particularly'adapted for crossing rivers, gorges, ravines and the like, says the Scientific American, and it is designed to effect an economy over existing systems of transportation. It consists of a tower at each anchorage built of skeleton framework, in the center of which an elevator operates. Cables are suspended from a cradle at tho tower top and anchored near the base of tho opposite tower. Pivoted counterweights are provided, which serve to keep the cable taut and to compensate for any variations in cable lengths. These weights also remove the lateral pressure of the towers, producing instead a downward pressure thereon. The system does not require any elevated approaches to the bridge entrances. The transporter cars are suspended from swivel trucks, which travel on the cables." In practice a car is raised by means of the elevator to the top of a tower, t h e trucks being turned so as to c l e a r l h e , cables. When the top of the t o w e r i b r e a c h e d the trucks are turned back to normal position, so that on descent of the elevator they will rest on the cables supporting the car. The car thereupon descends by gravity to the opposite tower. The cars are entirely independent of each other and the speed of the descending car can be regulated at will, thus affording a saving of time over such systems as em- j ploy two counter-balancing cars.

Kvyw's' Mrs. Lizzie Redding, 3134 B Clifton Place, Ht.

"I began to feel stronger daring the first week I took Pernna and my health improved daily until now I am in perfect health and enjoy life as I never did before.*'—lizzie Redding. --h n ( • •*;, y\ ,;:v:i|:;|j^;.U::':;-;/?': TJR5. 71ABLE BRADFORD* < . # * • 'J,S <H% mm Need Not -FearHeartDUeaser " 'Don't run,' and avoid rheumatism,' are among the health recipes which ought to be f r i t considered by Uur mail or woman who wants b i s ^ r her heart to keep on Unking normally for t h r e e score and ten years or logger.

Four hundred persons were killed or injured Saturday by the, collapse of a new water reservoir in> course of construction in Madrid, Spain. The catastrophe caused a profound sensation throughout the city. All work was suspended and the people flocked to the scene. A workman who was injured says the collapse was so sudden and complete that it was impossible to tell what happened. The. men at work on the reservoir, however, anticipated trouble, as a fortnight ago three arches collapsed and cracks developed in four others. King Alfonso was shooting at Carabanchel when he heard pf the disaster and immediately repaired to the scene. His arrival was the signal for ovations from the crowds. The king was deeply moved and insisted upon personally supervising the relief measures. The structure which collapsed was a huge quadrilateral one, 350 by 150 metres, built on arches.

"I do not know/' she said, and shook her head. "I am sorry if Martin annoys you, sir; he is restless today— 1 cannot quiet him," she added. "Poor devil," I ejaculated, as holding my heavy bead tightly between ray hands I was able to follow what he was reciting. '•'Oh, God! Oh, God!'—'How waary, stale and unprofitable'—'Get thee to a "nunnery'—'Alas, poor YoricU'—'He^ poisons him in the garden.'n "Poor devil!"

' I will tell you if you promise to talk no more, only listen," she added. I assured hereof my willingness to listen, and she began: "It is now going on the fifth day since Martin and I found you all uncons< ions—dead, I thought—but I will ibegin at the beginning. You see, Martin and I were coming into London— I know, sir, it is risky—but I dirt ?o long to see the town, before I left it never to return, for you must know we are on our way to Bristol to sail for America. I thought I could easily stay hidden here tor a few days." "Yen mean to say that you will •burden yourself with a daft person in a now land?" I found myself asking. "What else can 1 do. sir?" she quer- 1ed: "I could not leave him here alone —lie has no one-else in the wurtit save me—it would-be cruel to. leave him alone." "Nothing else." I replied, not willing to spoil her fine charity. "Wo had not come Into London yet, i when a fog "closed in upon us—such a fo? as London had not seen in many a day.' she said. "We were and I would leave Martin and you—a madman and a corpse—and go to inquire the way of the first passerby I could meet, my heart thumping in my breast for fear I should ask some evil inclined person and be directed wrong. Thus, after hours of wander* ing hither and thither within a radius of a few miles, we came to Mag's. She is a charwoman," she explained, "who used to clean at the old Drury when I acted there. I was once able to do her a slight service, and for the sake of those old days she took us in." My brain was not idle—the night of the fog after I had left Rosemary I had been struck upon the head and •rendered unconscious. Before the jniscreantsjbad attempted_the^dastardly deed, however, they had made sure of the identity of their victim, for I remembered a light being swung before my face, and an.unknown, voice crying, "It is he." Who had struck the blow? What was the object? I had been searched—1 saw from the wall where my clothes hung some of the pockets still lay turned out. For what? Not money, Alice was positive, for there was plenty in the pockets which had been left in their original position. For the paper given me by my father? I had told no one but the King of that. I bade Alice bring me my coat when I recollected that I had given the locket with the note still intact within it to Rosemary. For the other paper, perhaps? WTell, I chuckled with satisfaction, if it was njpaperthey W j r f i ^ t e r ^ h e x i ^ i L P Q i what they wished. I thank you, Alice." I said: *bvtt for you and Martin I might be by now food for the worms. Again I thank you. for I honestly believe that I owe my life to you." "Oh, sir," she cried, tears starting to Tier eyes—they seemed ever ready to flow upon the instant—"I am not worthv to take it. Did I not steal "It is enough, from your looks," be said dryljr. "Tell me how you succeeded in finding this hiding place?." I asked anxiously. "For what you have done others may do—and so Alice's safety be imperiled.' Ah! 'pretty Alice Lynson'—more petticoats," Gil said, laying his hand upon his breast and bowing low before her. "PooX! You!" Alice cried scornfully, and swung round on her foot, presenting her back to blm. He gave a perplexed look at her back and then turned to me. "When you did not meet us at the marsh as agreed," he said, "I sent all the men on to Long Haut, except Torraine and your linkman, Pat. We came back to London by separate ways and ever since have been searching high and low for you. It did not take us long to find that you had beeji hurt or killed, we knew not which, near the Bow Street mansion. Then what had become of you was a mystery—I could learn nothing. In despair I hung about the Duke's theater—" "A risky thing to do," I interrupted him. "Perhaps," he acknowledged; "but X kept my hat slouched over my face, and I put me on a wig, and long coat; you see it alters me somewhat?" I smiled—a babe could have seen through the trick.

( Advices from Singapore on ,the 8th were that the Japanese and Russian fleets were coming together and were only a short distance apart, the Russian position being clearly evident by the dense black smoke from the ships all of which use soft coal. It was thought that Saigon was the objective point, and that Togo's fleet would not try to intercept Rojestvensky's, but would engage them at some peint further north. Great consternation prevailed in Singapore lest an engagement should jeopardize the safety of vessels thereabouts. The Russian vessels were running four abreast and enemy, he who had been instrumental j a t o n J y a b o u t e i g h t k n o t g a n n o u r in my hurt, thinking me dead, did not j w h e a sighted.

Hardly a light anywhere save the few lanthorns carried by provident wayfarers. You shrink from everyone and everyone shrinks from you. Gentlemen carry their naked swords ;n their hands.

While speaking, for Alice, seeing that it made me more excited not to talk, had let me have ray way, we had paid slight heed to Martin, who still spouted Shakespeare, now Hamlet, now another. Suddenly he came toward us; he strode with the stage glide of the villain. As he neared us he pointed to the window and said: "Euter the ghost—he comes, he comes—make way, ye slaves." A shadow spread itself upon the shade of the window and faded away. Alice put her finger upon her lips to silence Martin, while she went to £he d o c without a'sound and stood listening. CHAPTER XX.

Further consideration has been postponed till April 18. Senator Fyfe has introduced hie joint resolution proposing a constitutional amendment to provide a specific tax on all credits, . The memorial services in honor of the late ex-Go v. Luce, will be held in representative hall April 25. Senator Burrows, Congressman Washington Gardner and MIlo D. Campbell will deliver addresses. Benton, of Xorthvnie, introduced the petition of the state association ot supervisors asking for the abolition of the present tax commission and the curtailing of its powers over local assessing officers should another commission be created. To instruct Senators Alger and Burrows to vote for the removal of Reen Smoot from the United States senate is the purport of a resolution introduced in the house by Eichhorn. of St. Clair. The resolution also asks congress to enact such remedial legislation as will wipe out "polygamy and polygamous living and political control by the Mormon hierarchy" in Utah and other states. The bill to exempt mortgages r.nd -eredtts does not stand mueh chance of passing the hoiiso. It is feared the political cdh^quehces would be-Hre~ defeat of the party in 190G in the lower peninsula. Second, the bill is regarded as almost certain of veto by Gov. Warner. As it is at present, the farmer voter in the southern counties will never be able to see that the legislature did right, if it passes a bill exempting $90,000,000 of invested money from taxation of any kind. The taxes thus lost through exemption will be assessed on other property holders, and that will not make them amiableZ'TEe^ remo^lof i2;500,00<r7romr the tax rolls in Oakland county, where 4he governor liv.es> wilJL raise taxes from $10 per $1,000 to $11. And they who would be forced to pay this would rvote accordingly. The declaration is made on all sides that the passage of the bill would mean a slaughtered Republican party, and this with the governor's attitude ^eem-s to 3eai the fate of the bill. Gov. Warner, who is interested in the Farmiugton bank, a private concern, is urging tho legislature to pass a bill to bring all such concerns under the state bank examining law. ' The governor believes in equal prolection of all depositors of money, whether the money is in a state or a private ban!;. Ho thinks every reliable private bank • in Michigan wll! i welcome tlitT bill, which will be drafted by Banking Commissioner Moor?. There are 300 private banks in Michigan.

Canfleld, of Alpena. Rep. Waters's amendment to make the salary $500 a year instead of $C0t) was adopted. Correspondence comncceerrnniinn?g the nro- (>osal to exempt mortgages au'd other credits from taxation is poiirihg in and a lively scrap is likely over the matter. Under the present law, as it is applied, the man who mortgages his farm pays tax on both the value of the farm and the mortgage also, as well as the interest on the money. Now what the law aimed at flr3t was the taxation of the money invested in mortgages. It was never proposed to tax one man twice, but the supreme court has held that these two taxes can be paid by one man. At present the tax on the mortgage can be dodged by any one who lives out of the state. Residents of Michigan, who loan their money directly, must pay tax ou it, or require the borrower to do so. while outsiders escape this burden. So some Michigan people have their money loaned as from out-ofstate relatives. Also, much of the mortgage loaaa of Michigan are collecting into great pools outside the state. They can lend at 5 per cent, a*id a Michigan man who tries to invest in mortgages .must compete with that. The tax commission and the auditor general's office oppose the bill. These departments' work would be lessened by_it._Clerks would be cut off. "Open," I too cried—"It is Gil."

The first fact in this connection which thoroughly arrested my attention was chat SO per cent of the population iged above S years can read and write. My mind thus aroused, I pro» ?fe<3ed to study the details of ..th* school system. As' I proceeded I found other facts which most deeply impressed me. There are in the kingdom fifty-four Qormal schools for the preparation of teachers and in these last year were 4,713 pupils. The graduates are about 550 a year. The cost of the primary schools Is over 1800,000 a year. The teachers r.umber 17,500. In the common schools, properly so called, there are few teachers who belong to the religious orders.. In the "allied", public schools the members of the religious orders exceed the other teachers more than two fo one. The number of pupils in 1902 in the common schools, properly so called, wa3 S06J74 boys, 183,590 girls. In the "allied" schools, religious institutions under the supervision of the state were 62.871 boys and 127,000 girls. Private schools under state supervision had 53,388 boys and 94,116 girls. Nowhere is the segregation of the "classes" from the "masses" more distinct than in the schools. Only the poor, as a rule, attend the common schools. It is considered utterly beneath the dignity of the higher classes generally, even in the mds^straitened circumstances, to send thefr""children to the public schools. There is be- "gtniiing to tie Tonstiferalrleclratife In this respect. —Some of the pupils in the private schools and nearly all in the religious schools are instructed more or less free of expense. Of the total attendance in the primary schools of al! kinds, 827.165. only 52,767 pay" anything for their schooling. It appears that the number of primary schools eral utility horses Is the finest I ever saw in any country. The foundation is the great Percheron, or Norman horse, and the general run of horses bred here is a fine, clean-limbed stocky animal. He is well cared for always looks in fine condition, and veil-groomed. A "scrub" horse is seldom been here. One day I -stood for several hours on the steps of the Roy* al museums, the picture galleries, and. saw 259 teams pass in review, and t must say I had never seen their equal. The graduates of the veterinary college find plenty to do in caring for the many fine horses in Belgium. Education la Practical. In all Belgian schools the practical nature of the Instruction is very commendable. Object-lesson teaching if- in common use. It is urged that the boys be taught in the school rooms how to measure a piece of land 01 given size and shape. It is suggested to the teacher that he should select a piece of land near the school for an example, and when the problem has been worked? out in school, he is urged tc take his classes out in the fields for practical observation and study. Here they are to .make actual measurement?-', go over the figuring again, and compare the results with those obtained in school. Who will bring forward a better suggestion than this in the hr.e of practical education? There are In the kingdom thirty schools where the art of weaving is taught, the schools being subsidized b> the state. The number of apprent i c e who attend those schools averages about 900. Out of those last year only sixty-two were unable to read. -They earn an average^ wage-ttf-nearly %\ a month. Since their foundation "Twelfth Night"/Shipwreck Changed Into a Railway Wreck. The people/of India pre inveterate theater-goers—that la, In the large towns, where they have theaters—and devoted to Shakespeare, whose plays they pad and adapt to suit popular taste, precisely as a Broadway man* ager would make over a Sanscrit play if ho were going to produce it here. Viola and Sebastian are introduced, not by means of a shipwreck, as per Shakespeare, but through the medium of a railroad smashup. The great central Bombay station is first shown, the trains made up with first, second, intermediate and third-class carriages. Viola and Sebastian are seen to hurry down the platform carrying their dress suit cases and to settle themselves in one of the second-class cars. A later scene shows their train crossing a lofty railroad bridge. The bridge breaks in two, letting them down into the ravine below, and from the wreck the two are saved by different wrecking parties, who carry them, in opposite directions unknown to each other. Thus is Shakespeare-nroTistrt-ttp-te* date' in India.—New York Tribuno, MO TONttUt CAN T r . t How I Suffered with ItcWi?

The sexes are pretty generally seperated in all the public schools after they reach the age of about 8 years. There are in the kingdom about ISO schools of medium grade, where about V..000 pupils attend. These are of the grade of high schools, academies and colleges with us. The state pays about $120,000 toward the support of these higher schools. Has Four Universities. There are four universities in Belgium, one at Ghent, one at Liege, one at Brussels and one at Louvain. Tho total-number of pupils in these is 5,- GS5.

Object Lessons Taught. The schools in Brussels open for the winter term about the middle of September. Almost every day after 3 p. m. strollers in the streets and parks may meet a teacher, followed by a long string of boys or girls, going out to a park or some public building or tLOttument to take an interesting object lesson in some study. The youngsters are thoroughly orderly, but full of keen enjoyment. They enter into the spirit of the subject in hand and evidently think they are having a fine time.

Gold Close at Hand Not Suspected by Treasure Seekers, "T'He"man with whom the writer bunked—a sober, industrious young fellow—engaged in working a lease vith several partners. They sank a shaft 150 feet in depth and "drifted" frotn the bottom in their search for gold, until not a penny was left in their treasury. They had discovered absolutely cothing. The lease was abandoned and all were obliged to go to work for wages. Day after day they had fluug^ their coats across a monster dorsal fin of dark,, volcanic rock, ouljutting from the hill near by, and given it rover a thought. The ledge of rock, was fabulously rich. The leasers who followed them went at the ledge of hopeless looking porphyry on top of the ground and found it fairly shot full of gold. They channeled it out, as men might channel for a ditch, and removed ovor fifty sacks of ore worth $400 a sack.—Harper' 8 Magazine. ^ _ _ _ Cbjectsd to Buying Teeth.

DVSPEPSiA_YIELDS A NINE TEAKS' TOTIif FjfrDS A RlBMEDY THAT ODBEcf Trick of "Wreckers." "Jibber the kibbc-r," is in sailor parlance, to decoy a vessel ashore by exhibiting a ship's sidelight on the beach. The light is carried along close to the water's edge, the man holding it giving it a sinking and rising motion as he walks along, in imitation of a vessel at anchor in a swell. When a lame horse can be obtained the light is hung on him, and he is walked up and down .the beach, for the imitation is then more deceptive. A navigator is thus made to believe there is plenty ot sea' room, and is decoyed to strand his vessel for the benefit of the beachcombers on the alert. ment as anything seen in America.

'* To be ailing for nine years is not a very pleasant experience," said Mrs. Darvoux, wiieu asked for some account of her illness. " For two years I was critically ill and could )»ot attend to my hoiisohold duties, and at ono time I was so weak and miserable that I could not even walk. My trouble was chronic dyspepsm. I became extremely thin and had a sallow complexion. I had no appetite aud could not take any food without suffering great distress." " Did you have a physician ?", " Yes, I took medicine from a dozen different doctors, hnt without getting any benefit whatever." " How did you get on the track of a cure?" "A book about Dr.Williams'Pink Pills was thrown iu our doorway one day. My husband picked it up aud read it through carefully. Ho was so impressed by the'statements of thoso who had been cured byz-'Ciirt'ltthlcdy that he iiumediately- fionglifc^three- boxes* of tho pills and iusisted on my taking them." " Did they help you at once?" " I begau tO;foel better the second day *fterl_starred to use tho pills and by the ttme I had taken tho three boxes I was antirely well.

There are cases where an operation is the only resource, but when one considers the great number of eases of ovarian and womb trouble cured by Lydia E.

RepregettUU-re Branca of Morgan county, the ''military man" of tbe house, has bad some unusual experiences. The fact that he 4s a chairman of the committee on military affairs very often causes his colleagues to ask him for stories. "It was while attending a military school a good many years ago that I formed the habit of taking long walks before breakfast," said Branch to a group of friends. "One morning I happened to be strolling through the town near which the school was located, when I was 'touched' by an old fellow, whose tale of hard luck would have melted a stone. "'But, my good fellow,' I said, 'I haven't a cent with me this morning. I spent my last penny last night, and my check from home won't reach me until to-morrow.' "The old man wasn't satisfied. " 'Look through your pockets,' be begged, 'maybe you'll find something.' '• 'Well, .if I've got any money in these clothes you can have every cent of it,' I said to him, and I began turning my pockets inside out just to show him that I was 'strapped.' "Well, would you believe it, a silver dollar dropped out ef one of my pockets and rolled on the sidewalk. Delighted, the old man quickly grabbed it up and said, 'Thanks.' "He was much bigger than I and I said, 'Certainly; I am glad I can help you, but, really I didn't know it was there.' "All the way back to school I wondered how that dollar came to be in my trousers." "And did you ever And out?' another legislator.

Obituary Jajie Carr Bullis, daughter of Eli and Rebecca Carr was born in Wyoming Co., X. Y., August 1.7, 1S33. . Her parents with their pine children, moved to Michigan in 1843, settling on the Carr farm nvar Pinckney. In 1848 she was baptized and united with the Methodist church and has always re> niained an active worker, being one of the founders of the Methodist class in her own district. Her marriage to Chas. E . Bullis of Unadilla, occurred Jan. 23, 1650, and she at once took up her home where the succeeding 55 years have,.been speut. Of the three brothers and live, sisters, she is survived by but one brother, Maholm D. Carr of Belleville. The deceased was the mother of seven children, six of whom are now Jiving. Mrs. Bullis was a splendid type of the pioneer woman of the past century. Her courage, wa* unconquerable. She endured the hardships of the early Settler in a new country without a murmer and and with an almost sublime confidence that the future would bring success and contentment. The great Civil war heaped a crushing load of debt on her husband and family, and naught save industry and thrift, coupled with a sanguine belief in ultimate success, could have paid it. The help of such women lias been the salvation of many families in straightened circumstances. It is but reasonable to say that her calm and untroubled belief in the future was based upon deep religious convictions. She believed, and that unipn-stioning confidence overcame all obstacles. — H e r l i f o , tUi'tftohing pant the span of AETNA PORTLAND CEMENT & Teeple H a r d w a r e Go.

J The private bank of M. L. Stewart f& To., of Owosso, on Saturday startled .'the-business community as it was to- ' tallv unexpected. The bauk did business as usual all t h e morning, but 'at 11/30 o'clock the doors were closed •and a notice posted that the affairs of the institution had been placed in iche hands of the Detroit Trust Co., as trustee for the creditors. It WHS regarded as one of the strongest and largest banks in the state. Us deposits amount to $480,000, the various : accounts running from a few dollars up to $15,c?b0. Most of the creditors are residents of Owosso or the vicinity, land include nearly every business, man 'and firm in the city. i T h e closed bank was an old instit u t i o n , having been started some ' Torty years ago. For the six months Ipast it has been steadily losing b u s - iness on account of the fact that it 'paid but :: per cent interest on deposits, while the other local banks paid 4 per cent. Charles D.

D. Stewart, viee- ' president of the bank, is one of the largest stockholders, to meet an obligation of $28,000. The officers of the other two local banks,, the Citizens' Savings Hank and the Owosso Savings Dank, were surprised*, ut . the assignment, and stated that if Mr. Stewart had come to them they would gladly have advanced the money necessary (o fide the bank.over its difficulty. ~Gfcen 'is now therTashTdnalSTc^cTdoT for men's garments, but we see no ieason to modify the standing warning against the purchase ut' green goods.

The fact t h a t he ie keeping to the main trade route, although knowing his squadron would constantly bo sighted and reported by passing vessels, they consider clearly shows that the Russian admiral is keenly anxious to meet Admiral Togo and fight it out to a finish. A Small Scrap. A report from Manila says that fighting has begun between the Russian and Japanese fleets near the Palayvan islands, part of the Philippines group. The dispatch does not go .into details, and while it is believed bynaval men that there is a possibility of truth in it, it Is, not supposed that any of the heavy battleships of either fleet have been , engaged. The fighting.. if any has occurred, will probably prove to have been between scouting cruisers of the two fleets. Japanese scouts have been sighted in tha,t locality within the last lVw days, and this fact lends some color to the report, as it is generally believed that the Russian fleet has anchored temporarily in some harbor in that vicinity in "order THE LEGISLATURE.

The new bill makes the submission of the primary question to the voters of all parties mandatory so far as governor and iieutant govet\ior a r e concerned, while for 'districts,' from congressional districts down, the local option plan is to be followed. This bill does not affect in any way the laws already i n ' o p e r a t i o n i n W a y t t ^ Kent, Muskagon and Alpena counties.

There is a growing impression among British naval experts that, unless t h e Russian and Japanese fleets come together now, the long-lookedfor sea fight may be postponed for two or three weeks, and m a y then resolve itself into a blockade of Vladivostok •by Admiral Togo.

I like them not—they are rough. ' We were in the- midst of one, where the gentlemen hold their swords up and the ladies pass beneath them. In a moment, I understand not yet how it happened, we all got bunched together. In the mi>:-up my dress was torn and the locket—Mister Waters' locket —fell to the floor. Raoul Dwight's foot in an instant covered the bauble before the gentleman with whom I was dancing had time to stoop for it. Cousin Raoul was handing it to me (he had b&en the quicker to pick it up) with a low bow of mock humility, bewailing his awkwardness and making other profuse apologies, when he discovered that the mirror was broke n . s h a t t e r e d into a thousand tiny bits. 'A bad omen, ma cousine,' he said, 'a death!' His face glowed with the liveliest Interest, and malignity was not far off." I twitted him with being, spiteful because of losing the wager—I was not gentle with him.' "I may say I believed her, for upon the telling of the circumstance, her eyes sparkled like glow worms on a summer's night," was Gil's comment. . "He dallied with the locket,' the lady continued her narrative, 'in a disdainful manner, turning it now this way, now that, while 1 waited his pleasure. Finally he gave it an extra fillip and the thin gold partition, which backed the mirror, fell out. and with it a bit of paper folded into a tiny square to fit the locket.

I restrained myself, however, and gave her no hint of my thoughts." I could have smiled any other time, he took so much virtue to himself at lb J l i t .

'1 see it is not. cousin,' he replied, 'for the date on the billet doux, although almost indistinguishable, antedates your birth by some years—and 1 beg your -pardon, coz,* he added. The men's muttered cries of 'Shame,' helped him to fasten his slipping temper. '"Then he hastened to hand it to me, for be had seen what I too saw; my father watching us. You must know,' she explained to me, 'that I have a father here in London, although 'tis little indeed I see of him, living, as I mostly do, at Ladv Dwight's. My father now came toward us, pushing back the crowd debonairly. I forestalled the words on his lips by crying gayly to Raoul Dwight: 'I have won the wager; the gloves are mine.' But my father was not so easily to be put to rout. 'Allow me to see the paper. Mary.' he requested. But I courteseyed low before him, and replied. 'You must excuse me, sir; it would not interest you. Moreover, it does not belong to me.* I placed the paper back in the locket and fastened on the gold back. " 'The men began making apologies for the fracas, and Raoul Dwight. as if to make amends for his rudeness, born of pique, and as I afterward learned, uesire to see it Che locket which Mister Waters habitually wore contained the pledge of my hand, lingcred to ftppotme Lopd Tel ton.—J uaderstood that Raoul Dwight was explaining about the paper.

And his information was punctuated with malicious chuckles. Which proved to me that it was of value to its owner, and that Raoul Dwight had either seen or heard of it before. I promised myself that, as far as I had the saying, he should never see it again. " 'I did not look at my father, but 1 could feel iiis eyes follow me as I walked down the ball room with my partner, and I knew that he was furious at being thwarted in his Jnquisitiveness. That was not to be the end of the affair. There is much more to tell, much more! " 'I thought to escape an interview with him that night by spending it at Lady Dwight's. I had hardly entered the hall of her house when Lord Felton stood before me. After many pleasant words and compliments, for my father knows how to be niost gracious when he chooses, and he can be the fiend incarnate when he pleases, also, he asked to see the billet doux. Again I refused graciously but firmly. He was at a white heat with anger, and I was afraid that he would use force to wrench it from me. I should have known him better than that. He recovered himself and in his most suave manner said slowly ft«4-4m p r e s s i v f: 1 XI^IYQ &^£^$L&Slin£ your strength, my dear; better build a new fire upon the ashes of this old one—you will never see Quentln Watei- s—your lover—again.

Moreover, have your maid prepare your clothes; to-morrow I am going to take you away with me. I have left you too long to your own devices; and your lovers.' " 'You have called Quentin Waters my lover,' I replied. 'I am more than happy to introduce him to you as such. When a father gambles away his daughter's hand in a room crowded with gamesters, holding her name as light as a thistle down—oh, I hate the thought of it!—he should thank _hgr_j_f__she n i e p f __h_rrn_ in a n y Spirit whatsoever. But if she acquiesces in w h a n i e " has done, "somethTng more than thanks, are, I think, her due.' 'Of course he told you that?' he said. His aplomb was admirable. 'And you believed him?' <; 'Of course—he did not tell me that," I retorted. 'He only lately became aware of the fact that Lady Mary Felton and Rosemary Allyn. whom he had seen at Castle Drout.. were the same person. I saw—:and possessed the paper the day he won it—I .recognised my father's writing!' He winced now~ and the blooiLcame to_the surface of his face. 'Then to make assurance doubly sure, I asked one who had witnessed the proceedings that night at the Lodge, and from him I learned the facts of the case. You and Cousin Raoul need not have been so anxious about the paper, since it has been in my possession all the time. Quentin Waters is not the man to force an unwelcome bride.' " 'I'm afraid he'll have to take a bride in heaven.' he said harshly; he'll get no earthly one.' '"Then will I be that bride.' I. returned. Seeing there would be no end to the argument, he left me. after requesting my presence at home on the morrow. "'He liad hardly gotten out of the door before Raoul Dwight put in an appearance.

Castro's answer, which Minister Bowen characterized as contemptuous and insulting, was of the same nature, crisp and to the point. He called attention to the fact that diplomatically speaking there were no questions at issue between the governments because ajl matters in wnich Ajmericans were interested were tlO'n pending in tEe" courts, according to the terms of" the" concessions that were the subject matter of the cases pending. The same course would have been taken by the United States had a similar proposal been made by any nation concerning matters before the courts of the United States or of any state. A request to withdraw a case from the courts would have been considered an insult. No Skep—No Appetite—Just a Continual Backache. Joseph McCauley, of 144 Sbolto street, Chicago, Sachem of Tecumseh Lodge, says: "Two years ago my health w a s completely broken down. My back ached and was so lame that at times I was hardly able to dress myself. I lest my appetite and was unable to sleep. There seemed to be no relief until I took Doan's Kidney Pills; but four boxes of this remedy effected a complete and permanent cure. If suffering humanity knew the value of Doan's Kidney Pills <rhey would use nothing else, as It is the only positive cure I know." For sa.le by all dealer*-. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co..

Two Chicago women are said to form a link in the chain of evidence whieh the governtiient—is—t-ry4ng to -forge-ar-oun-d-the-p.ackexs The women are Mrs. Irving A. Vant, wife of the assistant secretary of Swift & Co.. and Mrs. Richard YV. Howes, wife of the head of the casings department of Swjft & Co. The husband of each woman is in Canada. Messrs. Vant and Howes left Chicago shortly before the grand jury convened. That the husbands are in Canada at the instigation of the legal advisers of « certain packing company, is a charge which, it is said, the government seeks to prove from the testimony of the wives, both of whom returned from Canada within the last few days. Since returning Mrs. Hooves is'said to have met an attorney connected with a prominent packing firm and discussed plans for a trip to Europe with her husband. A similar trip for the Vants is said to have been discussed at the time. The grand jury made special efforts to secure, enough evidence to indict a high official of the leading packing, firm in Chicago. The charge is attempting to influence government wltnoisjoor Three—witnesses—were "MV -WfFE'*- PEOPLE COMING.* "We have had a splendid winter'' in Western Canada. Canada's inrush this year is wonderfully great and considerably ahead of any previous year. It vs always interesting to those who contemplate moving to read expressions of opinion from those living in the country, it is therefore our pleasure to reproduce the following, written to an Agent of the Government and forwarded to the Immigration Branch of the Department of the Interior at Ottawa: Birch Hills, Sask., Canada, Feb. 1/05. Dear Sir: — I take pleasure in dropping you a few lines to let you know how we are getting along up here and how we like the place. We have been here close on to a year now and think . the place is tine. We have_been out every day__this winter working in the" bush getting out logs for buTTdTngsT" eic. getting rails for fencing. We have not suffered with the cold as much as we did in Chicago. My little boys are out every day with their sleighs having a good time. The'lowest the temperature has been this winter is 04 below, and it is very still, no wind. We had a splendid summer. We put up about 50 tons of hay and will have about 3u tons to sell. Hay brings $8 per ton now and will be higher in the spring. We have 20 acres broke and ready lor -crop. W r worked on the- Can. Nor. Ry. for awhile this summer and am just 3 miles from the R.

My wife's people are coming up about May. 1 wish you would write them and if there should be any one coming to Prir.ce Albert that could do with a half a car Itt them know. The homesteads are all taken up within V2 miles of us, I often think if this land were only in the Stele? what a "iish there wo'uhl be. It is ihe richest land and most productive I ever i-.aw. and the climate is O. K. I know that people back there that I write to do not believe me when I v.rite them what a splendid w i ^ e r 'Ac are having. They think we are all frozen up. We have only about 8 summoned on forthwith subpenas and were rigidly questioned, but failed to! tell us much as had been expected. not care to knjiw. if such was the case, the name of the man in whose brain the plan was created.' "'I looked scornfully at him. and cried: 'Coward!

The fire was most peculiar. Ir scarcely touched the woodwork and had done its work within ten minutes after its discovery. The hero of the fire was Thomas Norris. who fell to the sidewalk and fractured his arm. Norr.is paid no attention to the injury, however, but secured a laddor, wont back into the burning building and carried out Mrs. Herrick. who was terribly burned. Norris made 'a second trip and carried out the worn-' mi's :'-yi-ar-ohi babe. On his third trip Norris assisted Mr. Herrick down the , ladder.

Did Visiting Minister Little .Good tr Find It Out. Having accumulated a considerable property, the late Nathaniel Whltmor€ of Gardiner, Mass., more familiarly known by people of the Kennebec val ley as "Uncle Nat" Wbitmore, received naturally enough, numerous request? from various organizations to conjtrlb ute toward the work in which these organizations were Interested. Sel dom, however, did he respond to the appeals. On one occasion the minister of a certain church in Gardiner approached him, only to be politely turned away, as many others before him had been on the plea of poverty. "But, Mr. Whltmore," said the dl vine, "you are reputed to be very rich What, pray, since you have no chil dren, do you intend to do with youi money when you die?" 'Uncle Nat" rubbed his long, bony hands together, and with a slnlstei smile on his face, replied: "My good sir, that is a secret I have never confided to anyone, but as you are a minister of the gospel, and will presumably, bold inviolable anything 1 may say, I'm going to tell you." The clergyman assured Mr. Whit more that the secret would be well kept, whereupon the latter drew close and, in a tone of the greatest confi denes, said: "When I die I'm either going to take my money with me or leave it behind."

HI&0BSTI2JATE MUSCULAR RHEUMATISM, There Displayed in Higher Form Than on the Battlefield. Prof. William James of Harvard university relates that upon a certain journey he was questioning with him-' self whether or not the higher heroism of life was passing out of human society; and that at the very moment, ho looked from the car window and -suddeR4^ got sight of a workmen performing some task>on the dizzy ledge of ah IrblTconstriictioTT at a great height, says Success. This at t once brought to his mind a sense of I the everyday bravery of men in everyday occupations. It flashed upon him Jon the instant that the true heroism *of lite is found not only on the day of battle and in desperate adventures, but also in building every bridge, or in the ordinary day-by-day service of the world, whether of the sailor upon his deck, the brakeman upon his train, the-lumberman upon his raft, or wherever else men are af work; "As 1 awoke to this unidealized heroic life | around me," he says, "the 'scales j seemed to fall from my eyes, and a j wave of sympathy greater than I had ("ever before felt with the common life ! of common men began to fill my soul.''

J on*n Telia of the W a y liy W h i c h H e TreoUnl H i m s e l f S u w e M f u l l y W h e n Doetora I ^ L U ^ W - Six physicians, all of them Rood, one of them a specialist, had done their best for Mr. Jones at different times during three yeurs, and sfcHl ho suffered fearfnlly from the tortures of rheumatism. The 'rhenmntism that had been dormant in His system was suddenly brought to art acute stage by exposure while hc^was drawing ice in February, 3901. Erom that time on for a period f\f nmrVi thnn thi-pn v o n r s i h p \v»g w. / w i . sta^if sufferer. lie tried many kinds of treatment, but the rheumatism wouldn't /bud^e. When regular doctors failed, and one remedy after another proved nseloss, many said: " I should think he would tfiveit up and save his money." Of las condition at this time, Mr. Jones says: " My rheumatism started in my right thigh, but in timn it appeared iu every muscle of my body. I lost the use of my left a n a entirely and nearly lost tho uso of my right one. My feet were badly affected, especially the bottoms of the heels. When my right side was affected there v?ns swelling, but the left side didn't swell when the disease settled there. The internal organs didn't seem to bo invoked at all. The trouble was all ia the muscles and the nerves." Among tho few who still encouraged Mr. Jones to think that a cure might yet be. found was a friend who had reason for great confidence in Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and acting on her advice ho bought a box of them in September, 1904. The story of what followed is brief, but nothing could be more satisfactory. " When 1 was on tho third box,!' says Mr. Jones, " I could rcalizo n change for the better. I felt sure thou that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills were the right medicine for my ease. I kept on with them for several weeks longer and now T i m m i r i m l y vcnll, mid gvovylnvly io asking what I took." Mr. William Jones lives at Oxford, M i r h .

A Case cf Mistaken Identity On (he occasion of the great street parade, during the recent revival services' inaugurated by Evangelist Dawson of London, Eng., in which ministers anrfmen of all denominations and walks in life took part, one enthusiastic divine, on seeing a man rush from a brilliantly lighted saloon to join the ranks, exclaimed to his equally enthusiastic, but better informed friend: "See, even the bums from the saloons come to join us." "That a bum?" replied the friend, 'why. that is the president of Andover Theological Seminary. The president had been in the saloon to get recruits. Unusual Characteristics of Inhabitants of the Dssp Sea. When & deep-sea flsh is brought to the surface, how gradually and carefully soever, its bones are often like so much touchwood and its muscles like rotten pulp, while its eyes are burst from their sockets and its viscera are often blown out of the body cavity by the expansion of the air bladder. It frequently happens that deep-sea fishes are found floating helplessly on the surface of the ocean, with large prey in their stomachs. Their appearance under these circumstances is accounted for by the efforts of their struggling victims to escape from their jaws, causicg them to ascend beyond the horizontal zone which they usually Inhabit. Deep-sea fishes are commonly black or dark brown. Eut although it is claimed that light is essential to the formation of colors, some deep-sea fishes are scarlet In parts, or uniform red or rosy. Others are silvery white, while, according to Alcock, the neocopelus is "one daz ziing sheen of purple and silver and burnished gold, amid which is a sparkling constellation of luminous organs." A Personal Illustration. Some years ago in a town meeting in Needbam, Mass., a hot debate took place on the question of abating some alleged nuisances in the form of large piggeries. The claim was strongly made that they were a menace to health. One of the owners, a strapping, rosy-cheeked young farmer, who was much more at ease while feeding his swine than on the floor of a town meeting, rose to defend the sanitary side of his occupation by using himself as a striking illustration. Angrily sweeping his hind toward the objectors, he said: "These folks say hogs ain't healthy. Look at me!" Weather Indications. If it clears off in the night look for xaln the next day.

Never expect much storm in the old of the moon. The absence of dew and an unusually heavy dew are alike forerunners of rain. Not much frost need be expected in the light of the moon. An owl hooting in the hollow is a sign of a cold storm; on the hill it foretells a thaw. Nervousness is very common among women. This condition is dvte to anemic nerve centers. The nerve centers are the reservoirs of nervous vitality. These centers become bloodless for want of proper nutrition. This is especially true in the spring season. Every spring a host of invalids are" produced as the direct result of weak nerves. This can be easily obviated by u.->ing Peruna. Peruna strikes at the root of the difficulty by correcting the digestion. Digestion furnishes nutrition fii" the nerve centers. Properly digested f<x>d furnishes these reservoirs of life with h*ads= to=f*troBg^&tcii.d^, nerves and thus nourishes life. "Peruna is in great—favor arrrm;^- women, especially those who have vocations that arc trying to the nerve-. Buy a bottle of Peruna to-day. If you do not receive all the bene*its from Peruna that you expected, write to Dr. S. B. Hart man, Columbus, Ohio. . A Wonderful Discovery. Broadland, S. Dak., April 17.—Quite -a-sensatlonJias been created here by the publication of the story of G. W. Gray, who after a special treatment for three months was prostrate and helpless and given up to die with Bright's Disease. Bright's Disease has always been considered Incurable, but evidently from the story told by Mr. Gray, there is a remedy which will cure it even in the most advanced stages. This is what he says: "I was helpless as a little babe. My wife and I searched everything and read everything we could find about Bright's Disease, hoping that I would be able to find a remedy. After many failures my wife insisted that I'should try Dodd's Kidney Pills. I praise God for the day when 1 decided to do so ior this remedy met every phase of my case and in a short time I was able to get out of bed and after a fewweeks' treatment I was a strong, well man. Dodd's Kidney Pills saved my life." A remedy that will cure Bright's Disease will cure any lesser Kidney- Disease. Doddvs Kidney Pills are certainly the most wonderful discovery which modern medical research has given to the world. People would rather talk about the czar just now than about the neighbors. The Japs are not the only ones who, have taken a lie pass. c o o c ^ y o o o o o o o o o o o o b o o o o o o o o Say Plainly toTYaur^rocer T h a t you want L I O N C O F F E E always, and ho, b e i n g a square man, will n o t try t o sell you anyt h i n g else.

'Do not drive a man to extremes. Quentin Waters has bewitched you with his dark foreign face—and he had grace, I will acknowledge; but am I altogether without charm?' 'Leave, Oh, leave me,1 I begged. 'I am wearied with you all.' 'I will molest you no more, if you will but promise to think of me.' he pleaded. 'Oh, Rosemary, listen to my love.' He Btretched out his arms to draw me to his breast. *I will intercede with Lord Felton; you bhall not leave town if you care to stay—only love me a little.' '"You listened,' I cried; 'I am finding out some of the characteristics of my cousin to-night—I hate, you—and it' Quentin Waters is dead, I shall be his bride in heaven.' 'So you said before to-night;' he retorted. I saw that he was holding his temper in check. 'You liked me well enough before this upstart came to town—you shall like —nay, more than like me again when time shall have healed the wound. Adieu, my coz; I hope you will find your sojourn in France to your taste.' "Fairly well, if I do not see the face of my Cousin Raoul Dwight.' I returned. "That you will have to put up with to •some extent,' he observed, 'since Lord Felton has asked me to attend h i m ' I had no words to say to this, and 1 motioned him from my presence. " 'I htivfl almost, finished.' at this point the lady said, and her voice broke like a harp that had but one string. 'Her.e is the locket and the paper is Inside of it. Tell Mister Waters, if you find him alive, what I have told you, since it is impossible for me to meet him.- If dead, place it upon his breast and whisper to him that it has lain upon my heart all the time.' "She. had ended and there were when she delivered the locket into his hands, hoping thereby to find a clue to the missing paper. And each day after talking, for very weakness, I would fall asleep. In the long hours of my delirium, so Gil told me, I talked and rayed of nothing but Rosemary and the lost locket. Oft I started up after lying with wide open sightless eyes crying out: "She is innocent, I swear to Ood, she is innocent; look at her face; could deceit dwell there?" Again I was before the King crying out: "She is innocent, your Majesty, I swear it. Imprison me, but let one so sweet go." So time dragged on until at last I regained consciousness, only to repeat when asleep from sheer weakness, "She is innoent—innocent." How wearying It was to him, poor Gil! those long hours in which I raved, for he blamed himself greatly that, he had not waited until I was stronger before he had told me about the locket or given it to me, and also restrained himself when speaking of Lady Felton. I forgave him that, indeed I never referred to it, his humility was so sincere. I knew him well enough to know that he meant nothing, his bark was ever worse than his bite, witness what he did for "pretty Alice Lynson" and her daft mate. He s<?nt them on to Bristol escorted by Torraine and Pat, when he had need of them both. He also paid their passage in a vessel soon to sail tor the States, and heartened THE CZAR'S TBOUBLES PLOT AMONG IMPERIAL GUARDS TO MURDER UNHAPPY CZAR. before we leave and find oat what she knows regarding Lady Felton." "Nek" he replied, she has gone to Richmond. And she knows little. I sent Torraine while you were yet unconscious to ask her where Lady Felton had gone. He found her on the eve of flitting.

Gil had finished, and I saw that he was well satisfied with himself that "he had done his task so well. He handed me the locket. I took it mefhanically. My proud lady had done penance, indeed, in confessing all this to Gil. so that it should be repeated to me. I looked at the bare back, where the mirror had been—that could soon be, fixed and then Rosemary should wear it among the frills of her gown whenever she chose.

"There is no need to hasten now, Gil," I replied. "Lord Waters has been laid been laid to rest a week agone at least. I did not see his face, calm, I hope, in death; after his life's restless wave of turbulency may he sleep well. Ah! me! my errand into London as far as my father's message is concerned was of Tittle avail. Lady Dwight has left town; God knows when I shall see her again!" "Since she has waited 'so many years, a longer wait will not. matter," said he with the patience oi an older man. "It matters much for my peace of mind," I returned. "If she should die—and she is not a young woman— without my father's message—let me not think of it." I cried petulantly. "To the dead all things are known, they say," he said. / "I lingered too long over my own affairs," I continued. "My punishment is this: My lady mourns me dead, and I know not where she bides." "You should thank God fasting that she is out of this pest-rldden place," Gil jerked out, seeing me so down In the mouth. _ "What do you mean?T I quickly like this air fresh from the sea to put new life into one. At once I was strengthened. My blood ran quicker through my veins. All lassitude fell from me, and I longed to do outrageous things, even as a boy escaped from restraint might.

I did justice to the bowl of porridge and home-brewed ale Nance set before me. and in spite of her protests Chat I was not strong enough went to the chapel. I looked about me. How •ptill it was in that house of prayer and how familiar, save my father's seat' draped in black and that newlycarved stone resting upon all that remained of him whose name I bore. Candles burned upon the altar, while through the stained memorial win dow the light softly fell. I thought of the dead resting beneath those flag stones—life has so much to give t o some, so little to others—how would it be with mo? 1 account every man responsible for what his life is— whether he make or mar it. But mostly I thought of the newly buried, and while I said a prayer for the peace of his soul, I vowed that accomplished by Kashovsky, the Russian Sherlock Holmes, who was dismissed from the secret police several years ago on account, of his connection with Philippe, the .spiritualist, who created such a stir at court, and who then went to Paris'to live. Perhaps the most romantic feature is the fact that Mile. Leontieff converted two nieces of Governor-General Trepoff. Mile. Trepoff an 1 Princess Deinsheff. to the doctrine of assassination and that after the arrest of her mentor Mile. Trepoff actually attempted the life of her uncle, firing two shots at him, both of which missed. Thereupon the two girls became panic-stricken and attempted suicide. Mile.

The family has since tried to make ic appear that tlu girls' acts were the result of a mutual p'ac.i for self-destruction, both being in love with the same man, an officer of the guards.

It is considered the duty of every citizen to entertain strangers without the smallest compensation. Places of rest stand always open, and when these are found occupied by strangers, a man goes and tells his wife, who will send her servants with water for the strangers to wash their feet; for, as they wear no shoes, they naturally need such accomodation.

John Jacob Astor and bis son rigidly attended to business in the same Office—-a little one-story building «ft Prince street, just east of Broadway. Their constant companion there was Fitz-Greene Halleck— Marco Bozzaris Halleck. Halleck became a clerk for Astor in 1832 and worked seventeen years. The employment, he himself said, was not "profitable but permanent." Astor warned him when he began not to talk to anyone of his wealth. The two men became great friends. Halleck spent months with his patron at his country seat and became one of the trustees of the Astor library. The poet frequently rallied the old man on his wealth. "Why, Mr. Astor," he would say, "if I had $200 a year and was sure of it I would be content." The great landowner took him at his word, and in his will, much to the amusement of Bohemian New York, left Halleck an annuity of $200.—Burton J. Hendrick in Mc- Clure'8. CUAA YOUR KHMftXYS.

Natives of Morocco think that Europeans and Americans are dirty. The habit to which they object is that of washing the hands or face in a basin, and still more, taking a bath where the water is not running. The cleaner the bather becomes, they say, the dirtier the water he is washing with must necessarily become. And eventtHsWy- the—-bather— steps forth =asleansed from water which is no longer clean. "My little daughter was a mass ot sores all over her body. Her face was eaten awaj, and her ears looked as if they wouW^drop off. I called in three doctors/vbut she grew worse. Neighbors advised Cuticura, and before I had used half of the cake of soap and box of ointment the sores had all healed, and my little one's skin was as clear as a new-born babe's.

Its inventor, working on the theory that the power exerted by engines were better devoted to supporting the boat on the surface than to pushing it through the water, after numerous experiments with differently shaped .full size_rnodeIsJ. designed _a petrol boat with ~a~practically flat bottom. The gain in lightness of engine and fuel by the substitution of the internal combustion petrol engine for steam enabled a forty-foot boat to attain a speed of twenty-six knots, and the inventor estimates that a 220-foot destroyer with petrol engines would reach a speed of forty-five knots. The perfection of the internal combustion engine, enabling larger sizes to be used successfully at sea. remains to be accomplished, but the physical and mechanical difficulties to be overcome hold out sufficient rewards to awaken energetic studious effort. * .

Smith, of this place, says that Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best remedy for growing girls. Mrs. Smith emphasizes her recommendation by the following experience: "My daughter was thirteen years old ; last November and it is now two years i since she was first taken with Crazy \ Spells that would last a week and ! wettrd- then—pass off. In a month she would have the spells again. At these times she would eat very little and was very yellow; even the whites of ter eyes would be yellow. "The doctors gave us no encourage ment, they all said they could not help her. After taking one box of Dodd's Kidney Pills, she has not had one bad spell. Of course, *we continued the treatment uutil she had used in all about a dozen boxes, and we still give them to her occasionally, when she is not feeling well. Dodd's Kidney Pills are certainly the best medicine for growing girls."

Parsons, a young lighterman, of the Hollows, Brentford, England, who, on his twenty-third birthday, received the Royal Humane Society's certificate for rescuing two boys from drowning. His father saved fortyeight persons from drowning, and the son now has i\ total of twenty-three lives to his credit. Nervous School Children. Statistics gathered by various School Boards, show that a large percentage of school children suffer from different forms of nervousness, mild or exaggerated. Some showed a tendency to melancholy, others mental depression, and many the nervous twitchings of mild chorea, or St. Vitus' dance. Most of these troubles can be overcome by proper food, sufficient sleep, and Dr. Caldwell's (laxative) Syrup Pepsin. It is a universal children's medicine, because, if good food is eaten, it insures that the food is properly digested and indigestion and nerve poisons properly throwM out.

It was thought in 1903, when over forty-five thousand people went from the United States to Canada, that the limit of the yearly Immigration to the wheat zone of the Continent had been reached. But when in 1904 about as large a number of American citizens signified, their intention of becoming settlers on Canadian lands, the general public were prepared for the announcement of large numbers in 1905. No surprise therefore will be caused when it is made known that predictions of fully fifty thousand more In 1905 arewarranted in the fact that the Spring movement Canadaward is greater than it has = e v e r b e e n .

This new territory has attractions for those deBtrirrgftcrhonestead on the one hundred and sixty acres granted each, settler by the Canadian Government.

It does not require much thought to convince one that if Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota and other lands, with a * value of from fifty to one hundred and fifty dollars an acre will give a good living by producing ten to thirteen bushels of wheat to the acre and thirty to fifty bushels of corn to the acre, the lands of Western Canada at seven to ten dollars an acre, producing from twenty to thirty bushels oi*$\ superior wheat to the acre should produce a competence to the ordiuary farmer in a very few years.

A miss may be as good as a mile in some cases; in others the agony of suspense which precedes a narrow escape Is almost as disastrous to the nerve as if the result bore out the apprehension. An incident of the nerve-racking kind is thus related by a young man who was employed by a pavement and the busy people of the street.
