conservation districts under the Michigan law ofj 1987 These districts cover one half of the agrteul tlral lands of the state and considering they were formed in less than  10 years the progress is encourage ing Yet soil erosion is not a state or national problem It is a world problem which has existed for cea  turies Two British scientists, Jacks and Whyte maintain that the loss of soil fertility due to water and wind erosion destroyed or sapped all the McjftfeJnean civliisations,ajicient and modern from Athens and Rome to Italy and Spain to say nothing of the once fertile plains of North Af rica Gen Smuts has stated Erosion is the biggest problem comfrottng the country, bigger than politics Plato give an amasing account of deforestation and erosion in the mountains of Attica which destroyed the farms of the plains and drove the Greek to become seafarer and traders The federal soil conservation service recently made a national soil survey The results were sensational They found 100 millino acres of our best crop land had been irremediably ruined for further cultivation by rain and wind eiosionOf the total crop landabout 400 mi ion acres about 150 million acres have

believed 8500 would do the job as that was the cost of the Chelsea field lighted in 1945 However their field was all graded and fenced and all electrical work was donated by the Chelsea electricians The original memorial field committee raised 5000 which was considered ample for all needs Material was hard to get and finally the work of furnishing material and wiring was let fta an Arbor

resoestt ber that Santa Ciaus entered to the jingle of sleighbells clad in a fur coat which he soon discarded in the heated church as he passed the pes ents out to the waiting children Then the tree decorations consisted of popcorn strung on a string and the tree was lighted by candles which it was necessary to blow out with a long hollow pipe as they burned low and threatened to set fire to the tree Still, hire is some similarity to the first Christmas on which Christ was born We read that it was tax collecting time It is also tax time now and the township treasurers notices are iL4iiiinuv to appear in the papers We also read travelling was congested ami it still is today at Christmastime Housing conditions were inadequate and there was no room at the inn or any other places for the family of Jesus to stay The ame conditions xist at tiie present time and many people are living in barns, chicken  oops, etc, now and the papers carried pictures last week of a child born in a coal hni Palestine was in a state of unrest tlum and only the presence of the Roman soldiers kept a reign of uiTor from prevailing This condition exists there today but the Romans have passed from the

When an item appears in these columns,&#13;
in regard to some officer or person,&#13;
do not think it is a personal spite*&#13;
—it is cot. A paper, to be a paper,&#13;
should criticise and extol—criticise&#13;
wrong and extol good. A justioe&#13;
does not issue a summons because he&#13;
hates or has a "grudge" against a par^f&#13;
or is obliged to, but because it i s - b i&#13;
duty. Just so with a paper—it has a&gt;.&#13;
mission and to be worthy of the patronage&#13;
of the people—it must do its&#13;
duty in exposing wrong and upholding&#13;
good.&#13;
On Saturday last while Met Gallop,,&#13;
who lives witk his parents four miles.&#13;
south-west of this village, waa o a t .&#13;
hunting, he had occasion to cross tfeecreek&#13;
near the home of James Cook,..&#13;
when he had nearly reached tbe shorty7&#13;
the log upon which he was crossing be*&#13;
ing very slippery, he fell in such»&#13;
•tanner as to cause the discharge of&#13;
the gun which he was carrying in hit&#13;
left hand, the charge entered his left*&#13;
leg just above the knee, making a very&#13;
bad wound. He was taken to hia&#13;
Dr. Sigler was summoned and,&#13;
dress sd the wound. This should be a&#13;
good warning to the young boy* in,&#13;
this village who are so very carelev&#13;
with shooting ifons.&#13;
John Bryaiit, a colored man of about&#13;
twenty-tivje, has been working as a..&#13;
farm hatfa for George Renwiob, in Salem&#13;
tqwnshipjor about two months.&#13;
Friday evening, he entered the house*,&#13;
where Miss Smith, a lady of about&#13;
/orty, Mr. Renwick's housekeeper, was&#13;
about lifting a small child from, the&#13;
door. She was not aware of his approaeb.&#13;
He seized her, carried her out&#13;
the door and threw her on the ground,&#13;
attempting a criminal assault. A des-'&#13;
perate struggle ensued, the lady and&#13;
child screaming vigorously, the black&#13;
brute meanwhile chocking her. Ashepherd&#13;
dog finally attacked the negro,&#13;
biting bun and causing bim to desist.&#13;
He ran into the house, stealing a hat&#13;
and overcoat from Mr. Renwick and&#13;
ran off. He was fn Ann Arbor tha£&#13;
evening and in Ypsilanti the next day.&#13;
If the neighors had found him it'ia&#13;
Poultry thieves are reported to be&#13;
getting in their work to an alarming&#13;
extent in this vicinity. It will be well | not unlikely that the rope would have"&#13;

David B. Henderson,&#13;
Whose name was prominently men*&#13;
itioned in connection with the speaker-&#13;
|ship of tbe house of the present&#13;
loongress, was born in Scotland&#13;
'in 1840. His family came to this&#13;
country when David was still a child&#13;
and settled in Iowa. He received &amp;&#13;
food education ia the common schools&#13;
and at the Upper Iowa university.&#13;
He afterwards read law and was admitted&#13;
to the bar in the fall of 1865,&#13;
the civil war interfering- with his&#13;
plans. He lost a leg in 1863 and was&#13;
discharged from the army. He re-entered&#13;
the service a year later as colonel&#13;
of the Forty-sixth Jowa volunteers&#13;
and fought gallantly, crippled as&#13;
he was, until the close of the war.&#13;
Athletic sports, if indulged in judiciously,&#13;
are to be commended, but&#13;
when from the ruflianly practices that&#13;
too often degrade them into mere exhibitions&#13;
of brute force, there is danger&#13;
to life and limb, they cannot be&#13;
too severely denounced. An instance&#13;
in point was the game of foot-ball in&#13;
New York a short time aero between&#13;
the clubs of Yale and Princeton colleges&#13;
in which several of the players&#13;
received severe injuries from-the brutality&#13;
of their fellows. Grant that&#13;
these games are necessary for the&#13;
equal or co-ordinate development of&#13;
mind and muscle, which is a widely&#13;
received idea we have received from&#13;
the ancients, there can certainly be&#13;
no defense for carrying muscular development&#13;
to such an extreme. Football,&#13;
which is at present taking precedence&#13;
of all others in our colleges,&#13;
as it haB long held the first place&#13;
among the college games in England,&#13;
is a most vigorous exercise, calling&#13;
for all the energy and activity at the&#13;
command of the participants, but the&#13;
muscular effort should be directed by&#13;
a discreet judgment, and not exercised&#13;
as mere brute force. There is neeJ of&#13;
better discipline in this particular&#13;
but it may not be Beoured until a few&#13;
college boys have been killed by their&#13;
more ferocious fellowa.&#13;
Bessie Grevers of Haverhill. Mass.,&#13;
aged "sweet sixteen,11 is of a literary&#13;
turn of mind, and wa3 such an earnest&#13;
student of the novels published in the&#13;
five and ten cent editions, that her little&#13;
brain was turned. Twice within a&#13;
week she tried to burn the house in&#13;
which she lived, but the fates were&#13;
against her. This discouraged Bessie&#13;
and she decided that this1 was a cold,&#13;
unsympathetic world, anyway, and&#13;
she determined to seek a clime&#13;
where the caloric was more intense.&#13;
With this object in view, she cut the&#13;
•arteries at her wrists anU took poison.&#13;
.Again the fates were against her and&#13;
the was discovered in time to save her&#13;
life. She is now meditating and taking&#13;

ROMANCE OF THE WAR.&#13;
Mm Otn. Piokett Tells Sow She Joined&#13;
the Blue and the Gray.&#13;
An Stile ia Caaada, and a Pathetic Struggle&#13;
for Brtad—A School-Mara'• Test ia Latia,&#13;
and How It Secured a Fl&amp;ee.&#13;
In the United States pension office&#13;
there is a lady employe—a first-class&#13;
clerk—whose history is not only exceptionally&#13;
interesting, but in a sense&#13;
nationally so—for to her belong* the&#13;
honor of bringing about the union of&#13;
the blue and the gray who survived&#13;
the late war of the rebellion. Tbe first&#13;
interest attaches to her us the widow&#13;
of the late confederate general, George&#13;
Fickett. whose bravery aud manliness&#13;
both aides concede.&#13;
All mankind—and we grant at once&#13;
that they only are judges of what constitute&#13;
womanly beauty—consider Mrs.&#13;
Pickelt a beautiful woman. She is&#13;
hbove medium height, and she is still&#13;
In her early forties, and as charming&#13;
as when she became a bride at fifteen,&#13;
with that additional grace of manner&#13;
which comes only with maturity aud&#13;
experience.&#13;
Oo a recent occasion Mrs. Pickett&#13;
was persuaded by the writer to go into&#13;
the details of the fact so often stated,&#13;
that after the close of the war Gen.&#13;
Pickett and wife sought safety from&#13;
possible arrest for treason by aa incognito&#13;
residence in Canada. She&#13;
said:&#13;
"As I told you once before, I was&#13;
only fifteen when I was married. My&#13;
home was in the possession of the&#13;
Yankees. My lover was on the other&#13;
side—Gen. Pickett Our wedding day&#13;
was at hand, and he could not come&#13;
for me, but he managed to communicate&#13;
with me. All stratagems are fair&#13;
in love and war. My family got permission&#13;
to go through the lines, and&#13;
Gen. Pickett with a guard came as far&#13;
on tho way to meet me as he dared.&#13;
We met half way, and were married&#13;
at Petersburg. Wo went at once into&#13;
the field, and I must say I was happier&#13;
in the midst of 'war's alarms' than I&#13;
was whea at home with absence and&#13;
anxiety for companions.&#13;
"I was as arrant a little rebel as the&#13;
south ever provided. 1 did not believe&#13;
a Yankee could be as refined and intelligent&#13;
a gentleman as those on our&#13;
side; nor did I think them as well educated&#13;
or as brave. I would scarcely&#13;
look at one, much less shake hands.&#13;
All this amused my husband, for he&#13;
was educated at West Point, was a&#13;
cosmopolitan, and looked upon my&#13;
opinions as the ill-formed ideas of a&#13;
mere girl. A change in my sentiments&#13;
came about after the war in this wise.&#13;
We had become self-imposed exiles,&#13;
because we supposed all the active&#13;
participants, such as officers, would be&#13;
punished,, for treason. Wo fled to&#13;
Canada tindor my husband's mother's&#13;
family name of Edwards', and we wore&#13;
us poor and obscure as church mice.&#13;
Well', after various vieisitude.s, and remaining&#13;
there a year and a half, Gen.&#13;
Grant heard of our case and he telegraphed&#13;
to Gen. Pickett that he could&#13;
return to the states, aa the "terms of&#13;
the surrender would be carried out.1&#13;
We returned to Now York and a reception&#13;
was given to my husband sSjjrfrjftf*&#13;
comrades in the city, and so many"&#13;
Union officers came to see us and&#13;
treated us so kindly, were so well educated,&#13;
so refined, I was heartily&#13;
ashamed of my former estimate of a&#13;
Yankee, especially after Gen. Grant&#13;
offered to make my husband marshal&#13;
of Virginia.&#13;
"Returning to our Canadian experience&#13;
as I said, we were without any resources.&#13;
Our home, our country, our&#13;
cause, each was lost I was only sixteen&#13;
and one-half years old, and I felt&#13;
our situation deeply. I had a youngchild,&#13;
a voice and a tolerable education.&#13;
These last I looked upon as&#13;
capital. My husband could not get&#13;
enough, to do to support us. One day&#13;
I saw sin advertisement in a daily paper&#13;
for a school teacher. Being a graduate&#13;
of Lynchburg Female College, I&#13;
presented myself us a candidate. An&#13;
old Scotch servant admitted me, and&#13;
conducted me up stairs to the principal.&#13;
She turned me over to him a9 a&#13;
Miss who thinks she can teach school.&#13;
His first question was to ask me if I&#13;
could read Latin. On being assurod.&#13;
that I could, he proceeded with my examination&#13;
right before tho school, and&#13;
I answered questions, or finished questions&#13;
which he began. Finally ho&#13;
wrote on the blackboard, 'President&#13;
Lincoln says nobody is hurt' Quick&#13;
as a flash I wrote, and as quickly&#13;
erased, 'Hut somebody was.1 lio&#13;
(Jjfonod and clasped my hand and saidr&#13;
'Madam, you have passed the ordeal,&#13;
the situation is yours.' I filled it for&#13;
six months, when wo felt free to return&#13;
to tho states by tho assurance of&#13;
(Jon. Grant's recitll. Even now I can&#13;
not recall my experiences* without&#13;
mingled emotions. They were pathetic,&#13;
and yet, in some respects, at this&#13;
distance of time, I can laugh at them.&#13;
"Yes, I bave seen a great variety of&#13;
life—had at manj upe and downs aa&#13;
the heroine of a romance; but I waa&#13;
most touched by my reception at Gettysburg*&#13;
July 4, 1887, when the soldiers'&#13;
monument was dedicated, and the Blue&#13;
and the Gray veterans met there. My&#13;
husband's old comrades, and ihe courtesies&#13;
shown me by the Pennsylvania&#13;
troop* obliterated all bitterness of&#13;
feeling, aud I now feel that for me there&#13;
is no North, nor South, but my country&#13;
and my countrymen, as all are equally&#13;
brave and generous.'1&#13;
POPULAR SCIENCE.&#13;
The electric lights on Eiffel Tower&#13;
can be seen at Orleans, seveuty miles&#13;
distant&#13;
An electric spark has been photographed&#13;
by means of a special&#13;
camera, in which tho sensitive plate&#13;
rotated at, it is said, a velocity of 2.-&#13;
500 revolutions a minute.&#13;
A German authority affirms that&#13;
oaks are more frequently . struck by&#13;
lightning than beeches, because the&#13;
leaves of the beech are covered with a&#13;
tine down which is a better conductor&#13;
of electricity than the smooth leaves&#13;
of the oak. Experiments with electrical&#13;
machines confirm the theory.&#13;
{Strangers traveling through or sojourning&#13;
in districts known to be&#13;
abounding in malarial fevers and&#13;
arg-ue, aays Medical Classics, should&#13;
dress in flannel clothing, avoid fruits,&#13;
open-air bathing and night air, and&#13;
drink tea and coffee, or only water&#13;
that has been previously boiled.&#13;
Crushed slag is said to be greatly&#13;
superior to dry earth us an absorbing&#13;
and deodorizing material for earth&#13;
closets, both on account of its extreme&#13;
porosity, which makes the use of a&#13;
smaller quantity possible, and from its&#13;
value as a fertilizer, which is vastly&#13;
increased by using it for the purpose&#13;
suggested. It is also cheap and plentiful.&#13;
Human life is estimated to have&#13;
lengthened tweatv-ti vo per cent, during&#13;
the last half-century. "The average&#13;
human life in Rome, under Caesar, was&#13;
eighteen years," says Dr. Todd of&#13;
Georgia, "now it is forty. The average&#13;
in France fifty years ago was twentyeight,&#13;
and, the mean duration in&#13;
waa 45J years."&#13;
Fingers Bet or a Forks.&#13;
It is said that the origin of washing&#13;
the hands before eating arose from&#13;
the fact that food at first waa eaten&#13;
wholly—all around the table dipping&#13;
into one dish —with the hands. Now,&#13;
with the finger bowl, an ablution ends&#13;
as well as precedes the meal. Carving&#13;
knives, like tho forks, were at first a&#13;
luxury, and aa late as ttio clo^e of tho&#13;
fifteenth century wore confined to&#13;
kinds' tables and those of tho nobility.&#13;
Butter was not much used in England&#13;
before the Norman conquest, although&#13;
he Englishman, unlike the italian,&#13;
had no oil for a substitute.&#13;
Cheerfulness aa Aid to Care.&#13;
There is a faith cure not often considered,&#13;
but which is in operation and&#13;
quite as effective in its work aa that&#13;
practiced by professional "healers" or&#13;
"metaphysicians." It is the euro&#13;
brought or assisted by the patient's&#13;
faith in his doctor. Every physician&#13;
knows the desirability of inspiring this&#13;
feeling, and the best methods of establishing&#13;
this confidence in" persons&#13;
under his treatment are made matters&#13;
of professional study. It is only in&#13;
part a question of medical skill. He&#13;
may be recognized as a man of great&#13;
knowledge and ability, and m;iy lack&#13;
that one essen tial characteristic that&#13;
makes him welcome in every household.&#13;
The possession of this quality is&#13;
largely a matter of temperament and&#13;
it's usefulness is hardly recognized by&#13;
the fortunate practitioner, though he&#13;
may conscientiously cultivate it through&#13;
knowledge of the fact thut cheerfulness&#13;
is better than gloom in all the relations&#13;
of life. It is the gospel of cheerfulness&#13;
that this m;m unconsciously teaches,&#13;
not the aggressive gayety and unsympathetic&#13;
jocularity that is an offense to&#13;
an invalid and his friends, but a&#13;
brightness of spirit that makes glad&#13;
all who meet him.—Indianapolis&#13;

The Wicked Compositor.&#13;
The Pittsburgh Dispatch is pained to&#13;
see that the typographical error hns&#13;
been getting in its fiendish work on its&#13;
religious contemporaries, one clerical&#13;
editor tried to say that a prominent&#13;
clergyman was tho "Barnabas of the&#13;
Baptists," but the unregenerated compositor&#13;
made it "Barraban;" while dnother&#13;
who intended to declare that no&#13;
'Protestant Episcopal Bishop "has any&#13;
sense of humor," was horrifiod to find&#13;
that he had accusoil those prominent&#13;
yp.ntlomen of beiuof without "any sense&#13;
of honor." Under those circumstances&#13;
tho religious editors would bo justified&#13;
in visiting upon tho compositors tho&#13;
pains and pt-naltios of excommunication.&#13;
But tho uncomfortable fact remainB&#13;
that the compositors would not&#13;
care a snap for that.&#13;

PARMELL'S SPEECH.&#13;
Must be Built Up by Irishmen.&#13;
_ i delivered a sptech ia Notiingf&#13;
«w day* affo, in reply to the addreas&#13;
_jrd Baiiibury.&#13;
Be declared that there had «ever been&#13;
* B»Teneui of tuoh xna^uitude in the&#13;
couotr/, which was so comparatively free&#13;
from crime, as the land league movement.&#13;
The object of the home rule movement, he&#13;
•aid, was to regenerate Ireland, especially&#13;
witk regard to her industrial condition.&#13;
Continuing. Mr. Parneil said that manufactures&#13;
might be developed to such an&#13;
extoat as to take the strain off the land&#13;
and enable tbe people to look to other&#13;
aeaas than farming for gaining a living,&#13;
fcut the idea was not tenable that Ireland&#13;
ild be governed by England promoting 1 industries. Irishmen themselves must&#13;
remote Irish induitries, by building harrs,&#13;
cleaning out tbe channels of rivers&#13;
and reclaiming waste lands, net at tbe expense&#13;
ef the English exchequer, b.ut of the&#13;
Irian exchequer, or, best of all, through the&#13;
efforts of local and individual enterprise&#13;
and with private capital. Mr. Buifour's&#13;
plan of making railways through&#13;
impoverished distriola was a vain expenditure&#13;
of money. Home rule aimed at Naflonal&#13;
re-generation, and this implied the&#13;
regeneration of industries aad the Indus*&#13;
trial and commercial spirit of the people.&#13;
If home rule were granted it would not dis-&#13;
•cqura»e the rich people of England from&#13;
prometing industrial developments, but the&#13;
money would be Judiciously aad advantagecoaly&#13;
employed instead of being wasted, as&#13;
now, to maintain in power a government of&#13;
fraud and trickery. Expenditure of thut&#13;
sort would enable Ireland to get and keep&#13;
her head above water and to so exercise&#13;
And develop the qualities of her people&#13;
that she would be no longer an exhibition&#13;
for tbe wonder and scorn of the nations of&#13;
tbe world.&#13;
Mr. Parnell would not suy that It would&#13;
'be impossible to govern Ireland by coercion,&#13;
but Halfour's mixture of coercion and&#13;
constitutionality would never succeed. Mr.&#13;
Balfour had made several mistakes; among&#13;
them was ta.it he had neglected to^provide&#13;
for the arrears of rent and the restitution&#13;
•of evicted recants. This had led to the&#13;
formation of a new agrarian movement&#13;
which would sweep Balfour and his props&#13;
away as chaff is swept before the whirl-&#13;
-wind.&#13;
If the government had nothing to be&#13;
ashamed of in its connection with the&#13;
Times doubtless it would gratify curiosity&#13;
by making known the truth about that matit&#13;
«r. The country wanted to know how far&#13;
tse government had gone in a&#13;
•course so mean and so thoroughly contrary&#13;
to the English spirit as to attack&#13;
men from ambush and by the use of such&#13;
disreputable instruments. He knew the&#13;
.letters were forgeries, but he would rather&#13;
hare died than have accepted the vindication&#13;
the government offered him. The i*arneU&#13;
commission, instead of trying the personal&#13;
indictment hud tried the Irish nation&#13;
and the movement of the Irish party.&#13;
Mr. Parnell declares that all talk about a&#13;
Protestant minority being animated by a&#13;
••pirit of hostility to «n Irish parliament and&#13;
opposing it, or Catholics oppressing ProteBtants&#13;
ts fallacious. He further declares&#13;
that the modified home rule, HS proposed&#13;
&gt;by Mr. Gladstone, is preferable to Urattan's&#13;
scheme, which contained several elements&#13;
of friction.&#13;
THEY MEAN BUSINESS.&#13;
A National Convention of Colored&#13;
People Called.&#13;
One of the most important moves the&#13;
colored people Imve taken in a long time in&#13;
advocacy of their rights is about coming to&#13;
the surface. A national coaveatiou has&#13;
been called to be held in Washington the&#13;
iirst Monday in February, for the purpose&#13;
-of takiuir some actiou to remedy their&#13;
wrongs and obtain the exercise of nil political&#13;
aud civil rights aud privileges by colored&#13;
Americau citizens as are guaranteed&#13;
them by tho constitution and laws of the&#13;
United States. The objects to be attained&#13;
by this couveutiou are;&#13;
1. To orgaui/.o a national association of&#13;
•colored American citizens by which a&#13;
united and continuous effort ah,ill be made&#13;
to relieve them from the personal outrages&#13;
indicted upon them in tho southern states&#13;
and to obtain all the rights of American&#13;
citizens now denied them in parts of the&#13;
-country.&#13;
2. To ascertain the opposing influences&#13;
that retard the growth of their educational,&#13;
moral and material interest*.&#13;
3. To invoke congress to pass such legislation&#13;
us will enable the colored Auiericuns&#13;
to exercise the right of franchise in tho&#13;
southern stales without feur of molestation;&#13;
to pa«H a bill to pay tho depositors&#13;
of tho Froedman's bank in full for their&#13;
•deposits.&#13;
The colored clergy in Washington&#13;
-and other cities have indorsed the&#13;
scheme, aud this aeutuneut extends&#13;
over the whoie country.&#13;
The matter is deemed of such importance&#13;
to the colored prople that instructions have&#13;
been sent to all prominent people of that&#13;
race throughout the country to leave no&#13;
stone unturned that will tend in any way&#13;
to accomplish the desired object.&#13;
Mr. Pledger of Georgia i:dvises the colored&#13;
people not to permit themselves to be&#13;
enumerated by4&gt;he census takers in 18'.M),&#13;
but to "tut£e to the woods" when they come&#13;
round. His argument is, that as the colored&#13;
people ure not allowed to vote in the&#13;
south, they are now unjustly counted as&#13;
voters in mukfrug up the number of cougressmen&#13;
allotted to the south, and if they&#13;
strould not bo counted in the next census&#13;
the congressional representation of the&#13;
south iu the new apportionment would be&#13;
reduced to its proper dimensions.&#13;
Civil Sorviee to be InveatisratPd.&#13;
The executive committee of the national&#13;
•civil service reform league have decided to&#13;
investigate the workings of the civil service&#13;
law.&#13;
The whole investigation will bo conducted&#13;
in a strictly iu&gt;n-p;iriiaan manner. _Tho&#13;
committee will open an office in Washington&#13;
und will empioy the help necessary to&#13;
ac omplish their aim. Hon. William Dudley&#13;
Foiilue of Indian* will be chairman of&#13;
the committee, und his associates will be&#13;
Hon. Sherman S. Rogers of HutTalo, Chas.&#13;
J. Uonuparte of Baltimore, Kichard H.&#13;
ana of Hoston, and Hon. Wuyue Mac&#13;
eigh of Philadelphia.&#13;
E1D1R-DOWN.&#13;
How' the Elder Duck Makes Its&#13;
N«j*Vand What Becomes of It.&#13;
Tbe wonderfully soli and warm iubstanoe&#13;
whiah we call eider-down, say*&#13;
L. B. Fletcher in tbe New York Home&#13;
Journal, ii produced by tbe eider duok,&#13;
•A inhabitant of the Arotio ocean. It&#13;
Is proper to oaij these birds inhabitants&#13;
of the ocean, for they pane the&#13;
greater part of their lives far out at&#13;
•en, only coming to land a little while&#13;
in spring for ta* purpose of layiug aad&#13;
batching their ojjfga-&#13;
They are very awkward on land, but&#13;
are wonderful Bwimmera and divers,&#13;
descending twelve fathoms below the&#13;
surface of the water aad remaining&#13;
submerged as long as five minutes at&#13;
a time. Their food conaiuto principally&#13;
ef moUuska, which they pick up&#13;
from the bed of the sea.&#13;
Their favorite laying places are^ertaln&#13;
small, low islands off the coast of&#13;
Norway, which are called "eiderkoima."&#13;
The birds yisit these Islands&#13;
in pairs, which present a striking contrast&#13;
in appearance, the drakes being&#13;
brilliantly colored in black, white, and&#13;
green, while the females are of a dull&#13;
reddish brown, matching the color of&#13;
the •canty regetation so perfectly that&#13;
even a practiced hunter can hardly&#13;
discover them when, they crouoh down&#13;
among the reeds.&#13;
On coming ashore the duck proceeds&#13;
yery deliberately to choose a place for&#13;
a nest, while the drake follows and&#13;
occasionally gives warning of real or&#13;
fancied danger. The duck is .very&#13;
hard to suit, and it is not an unusual&#13;
thing for her, after examining all&#13;
likely spots out of doors, to march&#13;
boldly into a house and cooly select&#13;
what she considers a suitable place for&#13;
her nest, such as the oven if it happens&#13;
to be unused at the time. The human&#13;
inmates of the house welcome her&#13;
gladly, supply her with food, and&#13;
cheerfully submit to any small inconveniences&#13;
like the temporary loss of&#13;
their oven, for they know that their&#13;
guest will pay a good price for her&#13;
board and lodging. When tho duck&#13;
has selected a place she gathers grass&#13;
and sticks and builds her nest Then&#13;
she plucks the soft down from her&#13;
breafet and makes a wonderful mat,&#13;
which not only covers the bottom of&#13;
the nest but rises so far above the&#13;
edge that it rain be folded over the&#13;
eggs when the duck loaves the nest in&#13;
•earch ot food.&#13;
When^the six or eight eggs nre liud&#13;
they are seized, together with the&#13;
valuable eide--down mat, by the people&#13;
of the house, and the duck goes off&#13;
in sorrow to her mate, who awaits her&#13;
on the shore, as his courage never&#13;
rises to such a pitch us to lead him&#13;
into the house.&#13;
She Ii Wickeder Than 8,000 Bad Men.&#13;
Burmese women are treated well in&#13;
the family, and they are the equals of&#13;
the men in family affairs,* BO says a&#13;
writer in Bow Bell*. They have their&#13;
say in all business matters, nnd the&#13;
only place in which their inferiority is&#13;
noticeable is in religion. The Burmese&#13;
are Buddhists, and a Buddhist&#13;
woman has no chance to go to heaven,&#13;
save, by her soul" at death passing into&#13;
the body of a man. If she is wonderfully&#13;
pious in this life such a transmigration&#13;
may take place, and I note&#13;
that the chief worshipers at the pagodas&#13;
here are women.&#13;
Buddhist teachers put women much&#13;
lower in tho scale of morality than&#13;
men, and they maintain that the sins&#13;
of one woman are equal to the sins of&#13;
8,000 of tho worst men that ever lived.&#13;
There are about 200,000,000 women in&#13;
the^world. and none of those havo any&#13;
ottior hope of immortality than this.&#13;
Nevertheless, I am told that the Burmese&#13;
women aro more honest than the&#13;
mefl and that their business promises&#13;
are to be trusted. They are not educated&#13;
as a rule, and it is only lately that&#13;
there have been schools iu Burmah for&#13;
women.&#13;

About twenty years asjo Maine tried&#13;
the experiment of settling a township&#13;
in Aroostook county with Swedish&#13;
colonists. The land waa given to&#13;
them on condition that they mode&#13;
roads for their own "convenience.&#13;
They were brought over in a vessel&#13;
sent for the purpose. The colony is&#13;
prosperous and the members of it&#13;
generally contented. There are many&#13;
reasons why such is the case. The&#13;
soil of Aroostook county is ns rich as&#13;
an Illinois prairie, and would be as&#13;
productive if the seasons were longer.&#13;
Everything' a fanner raises can be sold&#13;
to lumbermen. Potatoes, of which&#13;
41.K) bushels a\n be raised on an ftcce,&#13;
can be sold to^starch factories. Wood&#13;
for fuel and lumber for buildings cost&#13;
I nothing. During tho winter farmers&#13;

Friend* of the DISPATCH having&#13;
buxiness at the PVobate Court, will&#13;
pliase request Judge Fishbeck to send&#13;
their pr nting to this office*&#13;
The theory that this is a Christian&#13;
Government, or can become such by&#13;
the methods which some theologian!&#13;
are now advocating, receives the following&#13;
hard comments from a writer&#13;
in-the Union Signal:—&#13;
An exchange says: If the membership&#13;
of the Patron8 of Industry remain&#13;
at 75,000 in this state, there will&#13;
be fat in it for somebody. At that figure&#13;
the annual dues will amouni to about&#13;
$15,000 per year, and besides this each&#13;
of the 1,000 or more lodges send §3 to&#13;
headquartsrs for a charter, and each&#13;
member institiated after a lodge is instituted&#13;
has to drop- $1 into the hat.&#13;
Probably half of the 75,000 Patrons are&#13;
charters member, to be liberal, which&#13;
makes $37,500 from this little item&#13;
alone. Further, the supreme rulers of&#13;
the roost furnish ail the blanks and&#13;
stationery for each lodge, which must&#13;
also be something of a snap, so that it&#13;
would be of interest to the humble&#13;
Patrons wno put up the uoodle to&#13;
know what becomes of this grand aggregation&#13;
of about $100,000 per annum.&#13;
No man can be a consistent member&#13;
of the Catholic church any longer&#13;
and in any way be friendly to the saloon.&#13;
The position of that church on&#13;
the liquor question w&amp;a si early de fanned&#13;
at a mass meeting at Baltimore&#13;
recently^and no mau doubts that&#13;
much good will come of it. Archbishop&#13;
Iseland voices the sentiment&#13;
of the meeting as follows: "The position&#13;
of the Catholio church on temperance&#13;
and other social questions&#13;
has been clearly stated in the Catholifif&#13;
lay congress held in Baltimore.&#13;
The corru|jt;ng influence of saloons&#13;
in politics, the crime of pauperism&#13;
resulting from excessive drinking,&#13;
requires legislative restriction, which&#13;
we can aid in procuring by joining&#13;
our influence with that of the other&#13;
enemies of intemperance. The Catholio&#13;
Church is absolutely and irrevocably&#13;
opposed to drunkeness and&#13;
to drunkard-making. In vain we&#13;
confess to work for souls if we do&#13;
not labor to drive out, an evil which&#13;
18'daily begetting sins by the ten&#13;
thousand an'd weopling hell, in vain&#13;
we boast of civilization and liberty&#13;
if we do not labor to exterminate intemperance.&#13;
Education, the elevatingof&#13;
the masses, liberty, all that age&#13;
admires, is set at naught by this&#13;
dreadful evil- The individual conseience&#13;
is the first aim in opposing it;&#13;
but the individual conscience has to&#13;
b* strengthened and supplcmentod&#13;
by law. The claim of saloonkeepers&#13;
to freedom in their traffic is the claim&#13;
to spread disease, Kin, pauperism&#13;
Stockbridge Sun.&#13;
I want to put before you a few&#13;
questions, and I hope that you will&#13;
Constitution." Would that make it&#13;
a Christian Government?—No, verily.&#13;
When then? When God is honored&#13;
and obeyed* and the high moral welfare&#13;
of the people is oared for by. the&#13;
Government, then it may be claimed&#13;
to be a one, not till than.&#13;
And that time will never come,&#13;
because it is not in the power of the&#13;
Government to deal with the "high&#13;
moral welfare" of its people, that being&#13;
a matter which concerns the heart,&#13;
and not the out word deportment.&#13;
Civil government has control over the&#13;
worship of God, but it is left for the&#13;
gospel to work that change of heart&#13;
which promotes an individual's moral&#13;
welfare; and the freer the gospal is&#13;
left in its appointed sphere of action,&#13;
the more effectually will do its work.&#13;
The Government which allows1 the&#13;
latter that perfect freedom of earthly&#13;
ministration which its author intended&#13;
for it, has gone as far toward liecoming&#13;
a Christian government as it&#13;
is possible lor it to go.&#13;

Fa.iil.ktou, S. D., Dec. 16,18359.&#13;
EDITOK PINCJCNBY DISPATCH:&#13;
Before leaving Michigan T prom&#13;
iaed that I would .write you on my&#13;
arrival here and give you my idea of&#13;
this country.* I am not certain that&#13;
I can write you anything that will interest&#13;
you or your readers, but it you&#13;
should consider it worth notice, you&#13;
can give it a place it in your paper.&#13;
In the first place, I would say that&#13;
I am well pleased with my exchange.&#13;
1 have a very fine place of 320 acres,&#13;
a good house, plenty of good water,&#13;
withiu ten minutes walk of the town,&#13;
(the town being the county seat,)&#13;
with two good railroads, and more&#13;
coming. We havo four banks, four&#13;
churches, four sohools, and a very&#13;
lively place. We find the best of&#13;
neighbors, well educated, and good&#13;
society, as far as I have been able to&#13;
burn. A great many graduates&#13;
have come to this country and attempted&#13;
to farm it; many have farmed&#13;
but very little. When they first saw&#13;
these beautiful plains they thought&#13;
that all they had to do was to get the&#13;
land plowed and throw tLe seed onto&#13;
the ground, then the money would roll&#13;
in by the bushel. It would seem that&#13;
this wus the case a few years ago, for&#13;
many got as high as 25 aud 80 bushels&#13;
of wheat to the acre, and I have&#13;
heard several say that they received&#13;
50 bushels. Now,sorae may doubt&#13;
this statement, but I have no reason&#13;
to doubt it, for the soil is very rich&#13;
and the season was just right. As&#13;
near as I can learn the average crop&#13;
of wheat has been as good here as in&#13;
Michigan until the past season, when&#13;
the crop was neatly, and in some instances&#13;
a total failure. Those who&#13;
done their work well raised enough&#13;
to live on, and that is as well as many&#13;
have done in your state. Wheat has&#13;
been the staple crop of ihis country,&#13;
and nearly all depending upon that&#13;
one commodity for niisiticr money&#13;
have rondo, ir failure, mid for that reason&#13;
cm&gt;o the country, and would like&#13;
to soil or trade and yo elsewhere;&#13;
they don't care where, only so that&#13;
they ciin gt't awny from hard times.&#13;
I imagine if theat* people &lt;^o to Michigan&#13;
and plant, their corn and sow&#13;
their wheat without plowing the&#13;
ground and only going over it once&#13;
or twiee with a cultivator, that the&#13;
s;unii hard times will continue with&#13;
them there that they had here. 1&#13;
have been surprised many times&#13;
while here in talking with fanners&#13;
about plowing. But very few&#13;
of them have ever seen a jointer&#13;
on a plow, and they never use a&#13;
wheel exeept in breaking up. If&#13;
they break two, three or four inches&#13;
deep then they take their stirring&#13;
plow (which wo call a cross or stubble&#13;
plow) and make it run the proper&#13;
depth without a. wheel, and then go&#13;
ahead. Tlujy plow just as deep as&#13;
the land hftS been broken, if it is two,&#13;
three or four inches, year after year,&#13;
and from sixteen to twenty-four&#13;
inches wide, and use a plow not capable&#13;
of cutting over fourteen inches&#13;
and do a good job. Nearly everybody&#13;
claims that it does not make&#13;
any difference here whether the work&#13;
is well done or half done, the result&#13;
will be the same. Their a^nment&#13;
may be all right, but I am confident&#13;
that it would not do in Michigan,&#13;
Why should it do in Dakota? As near&#13;
as I can learn by the observations I&#13;
have bc»n able to make in the short&#13;
time that I have been.here,and by talking&#13;
with the farmers generally, 1 find&#13;
that any thing that grows in Michigan&#13;
will QTOW here with less labor&#13;
and more abundantly than it does&#13;
there with the exception of fruit.&#13;
Small fruit does equally as wellhcre&#13;
as there, and I am of the opinion that&#13;
apples and cherries will be all right&#13;
by getting hardy varieties. The climate&#13;
is said to be the very best. I&#13;
have talked with men from Michigan,&#13;
Canada, New York, Illinois, Iowa&#13;
and Wisconsin, and they all claim&#13;
that this beats them all&#13;
year through. My&#13;
has been very fair; we have not had&#13;
any winter yet. I t has been the&#13;
most beautiful fall tba£ I have ever&#13;
pawed, only three or lour cold or&#13;
windy days. Stock of all kinds ate&#13;
still runing out and getting their living&#13;
and doing well, sheep are fat and&#13;
no grain reqired, the natural graas&#13;
being very nourishing. I loot for&#13;
some very cold weather before long ,&#13;
but it can't last long, for they often&#13;
sow wheat here about the first of&#13;
March.&#13;
Now it has been a great wonderment&#13;
to many of ray friends why&#13;
people are anxious to trade their land&#13;
here for land in Michigan. There is&#13;
only one reason that I can give, and&#13;
I believe tbat I am correct in my reasoning.&#13;
They are mostly men who&#13;
come here expecting to make a fortune&#13;
in a few years by raising wheat.&#13;
If the seasons bad continued the same&#13;
as they were six or seven years ago,&#13;
land would have been worth more&#13;
here to-day than it is in Michigan, but&#13;
the seasons have changed. They&#13;
have had three dry seasons, but liot&#13;
a failure until last season, and that&#13;
has done the finishing work. I believe&#13;
now is the titne if a man wants&#13;
to get a home and get it cheap, for if&#13;
next season is favorable and we get&#13;
good crops here, this land will thribble&#13;
in value. The people here are&#13;
mostly young, they expect to make&#13;
a fortune in a few years and go back&#13;
east with more money than their&#13;
fatners had been able to make in a&#13;
life time. Because they have not&#13;
done it they are homesick, and many&#13;
will sell or trade for what they can&#13;
get, expecting that when they get&#13;
back east good times will come to&#13;
them without much effort. For me,&#13;
I am pleased with Dakota. I have&#13;
come to stay. Now, if any of my&#13;

after th e farm wurk. About noo n Mr.&#13;

In thi s flood of bills Michiga n men rode&#13;

|75 of thei r bounty , and think s&#13;
ther e is a great need of modifyin g the pension&#13;
laws, and tha t the bills he has intro -&#13;
duced will bring about all these changes .&#13;
Representativ e Alle*n believes tha t when&#13;
a soldier underwen t a medica l examinatio n&#13;
at th e time of his enlistmen t and served tiU&#13;
days, tha t should be prirna faa* evidenc e&#13;
tha t he was physically sound when he en&#13;
lUied , and be taken lor grante d upon hl»&#13;
applicatio n for a pension,.an d his bill is intende&#13;
d to make it so.&#13;
Mr. Brewer was on han d with a score of&#13;
private bills, and presente d a bill&#13;
asking for one cent postage, a committe e&#13;
on the alcoholi c liquor traffic, a lour years&#13;
tenur e of office for postmasters , collectors ,&#13;
etc. ; und a provision for the relief of the&#13;
Michiga n militar y academ y for loss of governsien&#13;

Representativ e Allen has Introduce d a&#13;
very importan t pension measure , ltm.ke s&#13;
the fact of enlistmen t and service for 00&#13;
days afterward conclusive proof as the&#13;
physical soundnes s of a soldier at th e tim e&#13;
of enlistment .&#13;
The list presente d by Representativ e&#13;
Bliss embruce s a numbe r of private bills:&#13;
to allow re-ratin g in certai n pension cases,&#13;
and to correc t certai n irregularitie s in the&#13;
pension laws.&#13;
O'Donnell' s offering consiste d almost exclusively&#13;

his bill providin g for the constructio n of a&#13;
high bridge across the Detroi t river.&#13;
The special house committe e investigating&#13;
the Silcot t defalcatio n has agreed upon&#13;
a repor t by the term s of which an appropri -&#13;
ation will be lisked to make good the losses&#13;
sustaine d by the member s of the house.&#13;
The Ben ate has confirme d the}nominutlon s&#13;

The committe e appointe d to investigate&#13;
the conditio n of allairs in the otllce of the&#13;
sergeant-at-arm s in general, and Silcott' s&#13;
rascalitie s in particular , is hur d at work.&#13;
Considerabl e testimon y hfis alread y been&#13;
taken , and tha t of a very damagin g charac -&#13;
ter.&#13;
The note s which Silcot t is accused of&#13;
h iving forged «nd afterward s taken up at&#13;
the Metropolita n Nationa l b.ink uumbe r&#13;
ttf&gt;, the sums name d in them aggregatiug&#13;
about 4i;\00D .&#13;
The statuB of the sergesit-at-arm s is a&#13;
stumb.lin g block, of no mean proportion s to&#13;
a thoroug h examination . One xuombor of&#13;
the committe e says tha t if It is decide d tha t&#13;
the sergeant-at-arm s ia a disbursin g officer,&#13;
then a serious question at once arises as to&#13;
how the individua l deposit s and accumu -&#13;
lated salaries of the mumuer a are to be regarded&#13;
; while if it is held tha t the serge&amp;&#13;
nt-at-arm s is not a disbursin g officer,&#13;
the n the exten t of his agency and othe r&#13;
vexatious question s must be at once settled.&#13;
Tlie development s alread y made&#13;
show an astonishin g looseness in the financial&#13;
transaction s of the oiiice. The testimon&#13;
y alread y taken by the committe e&#13;
shows tha t Leedom simply neglecte d the&#13;
financial affairs of the office, leaving everythin&#13;
g to Silcott . The evidenc e shows thu t&#13;
Mr. Leedom neglecte d to coun t his cash&#13;
and atten d to the financial affairs of the&#13;
office. He is severely criticise d for this,&#13;
and for the practic e he hi&lt;d of allowing&#13;
member s to discoun t note s on thei r salnries&#13;
before they were due, und 111 man y cases&#13;
allowing member s to overdra w thei r salaries.&#13;
Is is also alleged tha t both Loedom&#13;
and Silcot t were Jondo f attendin g the races&#13;
and betting , and that , Leedoin know of this&#13;
habit of his cashier and of the fast life he&#13;
was leading.&#13;
It is indefinit e when th e committe e will&#13;
finish the work. It is propose d by the&#13;
committe e tha t the matte r be sent to the&#13;
Cour t of Claim s for adjustment , und tha t&#13;
the action of the house in tno matte r of reimbursin&#13;
g the member s be guided by the&#13;
decision of the court , and this course may&#13;
be adopte d us the most expeditiou s way of&#13;

Gen. Alger has written Representat&#13;
Cutcheon und Superintendent Por&#13;

soldiers in the census. Gen.&#13;
the returns should show the&#13;
pension received, if any; the names&#13;
buttles in which the soldier participated:&#13;
whether he was wounded or not, and&#13;
whether he appears to the enumerators to&#13;
be in comfortable circumstances, or&#13;
whether there is want to be relieved. Gen.&#13;
Cutcheon will confer with Gen. Porter,&#13;
and there is a probabiUty that a bill will be&#13;
introduced enlarging the subjects of inquiry&#13;
to the utmost limit consistent with tbe&#13;
best working of the census bureau.&#13;

NGEB100S CLERGYMAN,&#13;
#4 twi days on the Indian&#13;
1% r u irtrm there, for it v a i&#13;
th of August; but it wai a&#13;
to what wo experienced during&#13;
th« week in the Bed tea which followed.&#13;
Capt Hare was a*tremendous disciplinarian.&#13;
1 never heard him utter&#13;
ft word, save to give an order, to any&#13;
Of hii officer* They would come to&#13;
the conclusion of each watch,&#13;
he following apparently idiotic&#13;
tion would take place:&#13;
In eight bells, sir."&#13;
well, Mr. Smith,11 or whatever&#13;
the officer's name might be, "then&#13;
make it «o."&#13;
And then the officer would touch his&#13;
hat to the captain, and I suppose it did&#13;
make it so.&#13;
The great function of the day was&#13;
the heaving of the log, and we used to&#13;
jwatch this ceremony with simulated interest.&#13;
We petted the captain's tame&#13;
who would rub his velvet muz*&#13;
le against us and gaze up at us with&#13;
beautiful oyes in Beurch of eleeosynary&#13;
biscuit; and we were very&#13;
attentive to "Grimes." "Grimes'1 was&#13;
a creature apart; a weird being of&#13;
strange and unearthly appearance, who&#13;
pervaded the vessel The* fact was&#13;
t^tfeat "Grimes" was a rare species of&#13;
*4l§mur. He was the size of a very new&#13;
V jy fcaby, and his face was that of tho old&#13;
"'"'$f&amp;V*-tilan of the sea. His oyes were a&#13;
" •"•'-Wight yellow and sparkled like cairngorms.&#13;
The eyes were very intolerant&#13;
of light and the animal slept the greater&#13;
part of the day, and when uwake&#13;
he blinked like an owl, but at night&#13;
his activity was preternatural, far exceeding&#13;
that of the monkey. He would&#13;
cling to the captain, emitting gentle&#13;
moans of affectation, and staring round&#13;
an affrighted manner with his yellow&#13;
es. He wus the picture of helplessness&#13;
he hung to the ciptuin's neck with&#13;
or both arms, occasionally extenda&#13;
very human-looking hand for a&#13;
fruit or a biscuit ''Grimes," who&#13;
weighed some 13 pounds, when loose&#13;
was H different animal. And so we&#13;
passed our days and the long hot nights,&#13;
^ind were very glad, inoeed, when wo&#13;
off steam for &amp; twonfcy-four hours1&#13;
i .&#13;
We went into the groat cafo of the&#13;
Emperors, and with tho exception&#13;
of a couple of Rock Scorpions—who&#13;
breakfasted there, and afterward&#13;
quarreled a9 to who should pay for the&#13;
breakfast—we were the only guests.&#13;
"Well, gentlemen,11 said Cupk Hare,&#13;
triumphantly, "you insisted on coming&#13;
ashore, and now I hopo you are satisfied.&#13;
I tell you tho peoplo here aro all&#13;
the same. They live upon the passengers&#13;
of the big njaii steamers; they&#13;
succeed in robbing them in some way&#13;
or other, and thoy get drunk and sleep&#13;
until the arrival of tho' next batch of&#13;
victims. Why, you wouldn't know this&#13;
place at night; but the Arbaces is expected&#13;
hero this evening, and thon if&#13;
you want to see pandemonium broke&#13;
loose, you can come and sea it here.11&#13;
I called tho waiter and paid, him 4&#13;
franca for tho atrocious lemonade which&#13;
consumod.&#13;
if there is a class of men who&#13;
in the study of bad society it is&#13;

W N, U .&#13;
"Yee'l see no objection to our coming&#13;
ashore this evening, Capt Hare?&#13;
1% will propably be an experience&#13;
ch ought not to be missed.11&#13;
chimed in with Rev. Archibald&#13;
, for seven teen days of the Inand&#13;
Red Sea had made me&#13;
&gt;rJi£8ipatlon and hi^h jinks of&#13;
anything was preferadummy&#13;
whist on&#13;
"You'll have to flutter,' parson/&#13;
remarked the captain, **if you come&#13;
ashore.1' For all objectionable Suez&#13;
aAd tbelr still more objectionable&#13;
wives show up bere for the express&#13;
purpose ol "fluttering/*&#13;
"Do you mean that I shall be compelled&#13;
to dance, Capt Hare?'1&#13;
"No» you won't have to dance unless&#13;
you like, but you'll have to gamble."&#13;
"Rather than miss a unique experience&#13;
I'm even prepared to do that"&#13;
replied the missionary. "There is no&#13;
crime In it if one in determined not to&#13;
win, aud one is only present professionally."&#13;
"You need have no scruples on the&#13;
subject of winning; nobody haa ever&#13;
been known to do that here. They&#13;
cheat quite openly, and if anything is&#13;
left when you are going abroad, the&#13;
interesting aborigines with their knobsticks&#13;
are quite ready to murder you&#13;
for i t "&#13;
We went aboard again and got&#13;
through the afternoon as best we could.&#13;
While we were at dinner tho great P.&#13;
and O. steamer (the ArbaeesJ dropped&#13;
her anchor close alongside. We sat&#13;
and smoked, and at 9 Capt Hare's neat&#13;
gig, manned by ita six smart red-shirted&#13;
lascars, took us across the 150 yards&#13;
of muddy water which lay between us&#13;
and the adjacent wharf. The captain,&#13;
the»missionary and I walked over to&#13;
the cafe of the Two Emperors, which&#13;
wasn't 500 yards off. Capt Hare was&#13;
quite right when he said that they&#13;
woke up in Suez on iho arrival of a&#13;
mail Bteamer. The whole place was&#13;
brilliantly illuminated by a profusion&#13;
of strongly smelling paraffine lamps,&#13;
the cafe of the Two Emperors was&#13;
crowded with Turks, Jews, infidels aud&#13;
heretics.&#13;
But all this was merely subsidiary&#13;
to the real business of the evening,&#13;
which was evidently gambling. There&#13;
was a big faro table in one corner; a&#13;
largo crowd surrounded the roulette&#13;
table; baccarat was in full swing, while&#13;
a professionals gorgeous attire, seated&#13;
at a, little marble table, was ready&#13;
to accommodate all coiners at the threeearu&#13;
trick. The Anglo-Indian and his&#13;
wife, military men and civilians were&#13;
having their first fling of pleasure on&#13;
their way home. Young Mr. Griffin&#13;
and Capts. Punter and Doucoace were&#13;
enjoying themselves.&#13;
"I wouldn't have missed this on any&#13;
account" said Mr. Brown, with enthusiasm.&#13;
"An soon as I arrive I shall&#13;
point to my society that there is a&#13;
vast sphero of labor awaiting it&#13;
lie re,"&#13;
JETf* 'MM&#13;
?}&#13;
"Are you thinking of applying for&#13;
tho billet, then," said the captain, as&#13;
he rattled his rupees nervously.&#13;
We were standing at the back of the&#13;
crowd which surrounded tho roulette&#13;
table Before we had quite made up&#13;
our minds whether we should play or&#13;
not, tho obliging habitues had made&#13;
way for us and Capt Hare and I began&#13;
to plank our money down manfully.&#13;
I was cleaned out in about&#13;
twenty minutes. Capt Hare held out&#13;
for half an hour. We had each lost&#13;
our 50 rupees, and we felt we had&#13;
done enough for honor. I think we&#13;
should have gone on, had we been provided&#13;
with more capital. Thon we&#13;
both tried to borrow from Rev.&#13;
Archibald Brown, but the good man&#13;
refused to encourage us in our iniquity.&#13;
"I've only got 10 rupees," said ho&#13;
"with me, I'll lose that, and then I'll&#13;
come away"&#13;
Then he began to ploy—at first very&#13;
timidly—a rupee at a time.&#13;
The table won steadily, but so did&#13;
Rev. Arcnibald Brown. He didn't&#13;
look a bit like a clergyman in his&#13;
white linen suit and sola topee. His&#13;
usually benevolent features were disfigured&#13;
by a sardonic smile, and he&#13;
won every time. I looked at Capt&#13;
Hare, and the Captain winked at me.&#13;
"You must have made a good thing&#13;
of i t Brown,11 he said; "hadn't wo&#13;
better be making tracks before you&#13;
lose it all again?"&#13;
"Man," said the parson, ' 'I&#13;
like to go aw.iy a winner; it would&#13;
be seemly.'1&#13;
Rev. Archibald Brown wont on stale*&#13;
ing with the regularity of clockwork.&#13;
He now put down 10 rupees at a&#13;
sometimes considerably more, bat&#13;
invariably won, with a few exo&#13;
when the zeros turned up,&#13;
course* the bank cleared the&#13;
was a rather monotonous thing to the&#13;
Captain and myself to look on at our&#13;
clerical friend1* good fortune without&#13;
participating in i t Again we tried to&#13;
borrow a few rupees of him, but ha&#13;
reproved UH.&#13;
"It would but be encouraging&#13;
iniquity,11 he replied, "and you'll disturb&#13;
my cal'culations."&#13;
Time ran on, and we three began to&#13;
attract the attention of the entire company.&#13;
As I have bald, Rev. Archibald&#13;
Brown seldom or never lost So heavy&#13;
had been his winnings that the rupees&#13;
in his pocket absolutely chinked as he&#13;
stretched forward to put down his&#13;
stakes. I begun to uulerntand why he&#13;
looked upon Suez as a suitable field for&#13;
Missionary enterprise. How much he&#13;
would have won if he had gone on I&#13;
can npt tell; but just then the steam&#13;
whistle of the Arbaces began to give&#13;
out a series of agonizing shrieks.&#13;
"She'll be off in half an hour,11 remarked&#13;
Capt. Hare; '-we'd better get&#13;
back with the crowd while wo can do&#13;
it in safety, for the place is horribly&#13;
dangerous at night aud you've quite&#13;
enough specie on you, parson, to make&#13;
it worth some ruffian's while to knock&#13;
you oh the head.'1&#13;
We left the place, and returned to&#13;
the wharf with the numerous passengers&#13;
of the Arbaces, reached our boat&#13;
without adventure, and got on board in&#13;
safety.&#13;
As we stepped upon the deck&#13;
"Grimes" with one spring dropped&#13;
from a yard above our heads. In his&#13;
usual weird $,nd noiseless fashion, and&#13;
leaped into tho captain's arms with a&#13;
tender moan of welcome.&#13;
We sat down upon the quarter deck&#13;
at the little table where we used to&#13;
play whist.&#13;
"What did you win, parson?" said I.&#13;
"We'll soon find that out'' said he,&#13;
with a smile, and thon he proceeded to&#13;
disgorge. Rupees dollars, napoleons,&#13;
imperials and British sovereigns, with&#13;
numerous £5 notes, were soon arranged&#13;
in little symmetrical heaps; the&#13;
missionary h id spoiled the Egyptians&#13;
to the tune of £830.&#13;
"It's, a little more than a year's&#13;
pay," said Capt. Hare, with honest admiration;&#13;
"a good tveuing's work, Air.&#13;
"Brown, even for a clergyman."&#13;
"Dinna fleer ut me, man,11 said the&#13;
missionary, as he neatly secured the&#13;
miscellaneous plunder in a hu-ge handkerchief-&#13;
"Tell us now you managed it," said&#13;
I, with some curiosity. "You must&#13;
have played before. H:ul you a system?"&#13;
"It didn't require a system, gentlemen,'&#13;
1 said the parson, complacently,&#13;
as he rubbed his hands. "I am an observant&#13;
person, and I watched, the&#13;
game. I very soon saw that, if the&#13;
bulk of the money was staked upon&#13;
the red, the black won. and vice versa.&#13;
I am afraid the proprietors cheated;&#13;
perhaps I was wrong in taking advantage&#13;
of their wickedness, but it"wat&gt;&#13;
very simple."&#13;
"Bravo, parson!1' 1 exclaimed, with&#13;
enthusiasm; "tu you belongs the credit&#13;
of a great discovery. I shall never&#13;
torget your ingenious system to my&#13;
dyingday."&#13;
"We will call it the coup de Suez,"&#13;
s;iid Capt. Hare, with a laugh.&#13;
"On my arrival in London, gentlemen,&#13;
I shall place the ill-gotten dross&#13;
to the credit of my society," s.iid Rev.&#13;
Archibald Brown.&#13;
But that money was never destined&#13;
to reach tho coilers oi the society; it&#13;
never left Suez, and it is in Suez still.&#13;
A long and almost human hand&#13;
was suddenly stretched forth, and&#13;
'Grimes" •&gt; ith a single spring disappeared&#13;
into the rigging with the parson's&#13;
rightly gotten gains. In vain we&#13;
called upon tho animal; he ran along1&#13;
the yard witli his booty and calmly&#13;
dropped it into the sen, where it disappeared&#13;
with a splash. We were&#13;
lying, alas! in thirty-fathom water&#13;
with a muddy bottom.&#13;
Rev. Archibald Brown swore us to&#13;
secrecy; we promised never to betray&#13;
him during his lifetime. Alas! poor&#13;
fellow, ho has been recently devoured&#13;
by the Caribbees, he must have been&#13;
a tough morsel; and I now tell the&#13;
story for the first time for what it is&#13;
worth."&#13;

Got Bffgt Every D»jr Ijwt Winter.&#13;
In the first place hens should never&#13;
be crowded in their winter quarters;&#13;
second, corn should never be fed to&#13;
laying hens, as it contains no elements&#13;
that assist in egg production and is&#13;
only fittor tho fattening process. Now,&#13;
for my method, not theoretically&#13;
given, but as a practical experience. I&#13;
got eggs every day last winter, and expect&#13;
to this winter. My houses are j&#13;
not artificially heated, nor are they so I&#13;
warm as to keep water from freezing&#13;
in them; but they are tight enough to&#13;
turn all draughts and the windows are&#13;
supplied with tight shutters. The&#13;
apartments are eight feet square, and&#13;
are intended to hold no more than&#13;
twelve hens. The floor is of dry dirt&#13;
covered about a foot with cle n, dry&#13;
straw. Thia should be forked over&#13;
every two or three days and changed&#13;
for fresh as often as necessary. In the&#13;
morning I give a warm feed consisting&#13;
oi bran middlings, very small portion&#13;
ol oatmeal and the refuse scraps from&#13;
the table, stirred up in hot milk. I&#13;
feed only what they will eat up clean;&#13;
then about ten o'clock, two or three&#13;
good handfuls of wheat oats or barley&#13;
are thrown into the straw; this keeps&#13;
them busy scratching the rest of the&#13;
day. A hen must be given plenty of&#13;
exercise; she id sure to become too fat&#13;
to lay if she has nothing to do but&#13;
stand around and eat "Oh, well,11&#13;
some people would say, "all this is too&#13;
much trouble: it won't pay." All&#13;
right, then, if it don't pay to sell eggs&#13;
at twenty-five and thirty cents per&#13;
dozen, there is no money ia poultry at&#13;
all- But there is money in it as&#13;
hundreds of successful poultrymen will&#13;
amply prove.&#13;
Court the "Mother's Fundnesa*"&#13;
Sprinkle a little salt on the lamb so&#13;
the mother will be induced to' lick it&#13;
To make a ewe take another Iamb&#13;
after she has lost her own. tie the skin&#13;
of the latter on the "aaopted," young-&#13;
Bter. If at any time the lamb is weak&#13;
and sk'kly give it half a spoonful of&#13;
hog's lard. Repeat the dose in half&#13;
an hour if no better, as this cuts all&#13;
phlegm, makes breathing more easy,&#13;
and gives strength and tone to tho system.&#13;
But of all things there is nothing&#13;
like sunshine for young lambs, as&#13;
this gives them more strength and&#13;
growth than anything else. Should&#13;
they get chilled at any tinus. give&#13;
them some rum witn a little as^afoetida&#13;
dissolved in it. Manure should oot be i&#13;
allowed to accumulate in tno Darn, as&#13;
tile gases arising from it are very unhealthful.&#13;
It is one of the most pro- ,&#13;
lific causes of bad outcome with prejr- .&#13;
nant ewes, failure of milk, disowning j&#13;
of hvmbs, shedding of wool, and perhaps&#13;
death. We would say. in conclusion,&#13;
that there are but three short&#13;
periods each year that shoep require&#13;
any extra attention—that is, breeding&#13;
season, lambing time and weaning&#13;
season.&#13;
Growing Flax.&#13;
All through the west, a.s is generally&#13;
known, flux is grown by farmers for&#13;
seed alone. The fibre, which in Europe&#13;
is considered the most valuable&#13;
part of the crop, is here thrown away,&#13;
as making too much trouble to save.&#13;
A careful computation shows that tho&#13;
flax fibre thus wasted would, if utilized.&#13;
give work to enough population lo&#13;
make a city of 160,000 people. The ,&#13;
more this subject is studied, the great&#13;
er this wastage appears. The men^ngaged&#13;
in working UD the flax/fibre&#13;
would be withdrawn from agricultural&#13;
pursuits. Wo should furnl^m a home&#13;
market for probably 1,&gt;XX),OOO more&#13;
bushels of wheat than «fe do now. The&#13;
flax industry, being^nade doubly profitable,&#13;
most enormously increase. If&#13;
we are now producing too much other&#13;
grain, espechifly wheat the increased&#13;
growth ofttkx would displace a part of&#13;
the extra product Flax is said to be,&#13;
and .rs, exhaustive. But the seed&#13;
makes the most valuable feed for ma- 1&#13;
jMire making. The stalk excepting the&#13;
fibres should be saved and returned to&#13;
the soil. So, though flarx will always&#13;
require rich land, its net exhaustion&#13;
of the soil, with good management,&#13;
may be less than with many other&#13;
crops.&#13;
Arithmetic In the Dairy.&#13;
Too manj of our farmers neglect&#13;
their arithmetic in tho dairy business.&#13;
Very few have any definite iden of the&#13;
cost of- a quart of milk, yet the matter&#13;
of « fraction of a cent determines the&#13;
9t;'ts%s in the business. They&#13;
d a oheese meeting in the&#13;
for hours over the&#13;
u sixth , and a&#13;
in the manufacture&#13;
but neglect en*&#13;
j&#13;
*&#13;
tirely to consider the cost of a pound&#13;
of milk. Every farmer should nave*&#13;
some data by which he can tell how&#13;
much a quart of milk costs him at difdf&#13;
ferent seasons ol the year. V&#13;
Each cow should be tested by herself,&#13;
at least once a year, and twice&#13;
would be much bettor. In this way&#13;
the cows that make our profits could,&#13;
be separated from those that are a&#13;
positiye loss. It is not every cow that&#13;
is a success. There are as many failures&#13;
in the dairy herd as in the human&#13;
family. Some people should have&#13;
died before they were born, and some&#13;
cows should have been oxen, or made&#13;
into veal ia culfhood.&#13;
H « « &gt;*ot**H.&#13;
A very great hinderance to the&#13;
practical handling of bees, is the fear&#13;
of stings. Every beginner should&#13;
guard against them by supplying himseJf&#13;
or herself, with a bee veil which&#13;
will protect the face.&#13;
A prime necessity in handling bees&#13;
is u. smoke of some kind. Those known&#13;
as "bellows smokers'' are by far the&#13;
best This mode of npplying smoke&#13;
for quieting bees is adopted by nearly:&#13;
all bee-keepers and is proving invaluable.&#13;
The extractor for removing honey&#13;
from the combs without injuring them&#13;
is a very important implement, and&#13;
one which no apiary should be without&#13;
Every one having only three colonies&#13;
will find in nearly all seasons a use&#13;
for it which will more than pay for.&#13;
its first cost in one season. Especially&#13;
is it valuable for taking the honey&#13;
out of partly filled sections, so as to&#13;
leave the combs clear of honey which&#13;
is darker, so that it will not be mix ed&#13;
with that which is white that will be&#13;
stored early the next season.&#13;
The truth which every beginner&#13;
should learn, and one that should,&#13;
stand out with great prominence is,&#13;
thnt a large farce of bees will do a&#13;
large amount oi work, and that said&#13;
force should be on hand just when-the&#13;
labor or honey harvest is on hand.&#13;
Failing to have the workers on hand&#13;
at this time, means a failure to secure&#13;
very much of a harvest of honey,&#13;
Therefore every effort shonld be made&#13;
to secure a large stock of working bees&#13;
at the time or tirries when the flowers&#13;
yield the most honey, or when the&#13;
plants are in bloom which usually gives •&#13;
the surplus crop.&#13;
No Two Alike.&#13;
There are no two things in the?,&#13;
world just exactly alike. No two now»&#13;
are exactly alike, and the individual ia&#13;
constantly changing, like her owner,&#13;
from ye &lt;r to ye;ir. This calls for constant&#13;
watchfulness and individual&#13;
treatment of the vow, according to the&#13;
demands of her condition. So far as&#13;
possible the Cow should be given the&#13;
opportunity of selection of food, and&#13;
the time whentodrink waterand when,&#13;
to eat salt; when to stand idle, when&#13;
to forage, when to lie down and when.&#13;
to move around. Bee keepers study&#13;
the habits and wants of their bees;&#13;
the dairyman should do the same with&#13;
2iis cows.&#13;
Hints for the Kitchen.&#13;
Cleanse the sink-snout with copperas&#13;
water.&#13;
If sassafras bark is sprinkled among&#13;
dried fruit it will keep out toe woqpas.&#13;
Tin cleaned with paper will shine&#13;
better than when cleaned Vith flannel.&#13;
Ham should be broiled very quickly,&#13;
and just enough to/cook through.&#13;
Yeast jars should be washed in cold&#13;
water and afterward thoroughly scalded.&#13;
/&#13;
Oilclothj/will last longer if one or&#13;
two layers ol wadded carpet lining are&#13;
laid urfaer them.&#13;
Cranberries will keep through the&#13;
nter in a firkin of water, but to have&#13;
them quite fresh the water must be&#13;
changed several times during the se.vson.&#13;
Lay a piece of thick Canton flannel&#13;
under your tablecloth. Even coarse&#13;
napery will look a much better quality&#13;

by the executive committee, are eligible&#13;
to membership.&#13;
Tbe management and control of the&#13;
society.are, within certain clearly definedAtmits,&#13;
entirely in the hands of its&#13;
memters, the school authorities exercising&#13;
only sncli supervision over it as&#13;
tbe attainment of the objects of its&#13;
formation may require,&#13;
These objects are declared by tbe&#13;
constitution to be as follows: "To&#13;
promote' literary and social culture,&#13;
practice in debate, and acquaintance&#13;
with parliamentary rules and usages."&#13;
£he qaalitiesessential to one's becoming&#13;
a USEFUL member of the Lyceum&#13;
are manliness, courtesy, true dignity&#13;
of character, the absence of all "littleness,"&#13;

feeling.&#13;

V. C. Vaughan, M. D., Prof, of Hy&#13;
gtenein the University of Mich., has an&#13;
article in the Moderator on the Necessity&#13;
of Ventilating School Houses, We&#13;
give the following brief synopsis of&#13;
some of the principal points:&#13;
"The red blood disks carry the oxygen&#13;
taken in at ibe lungs, to the various&#13;
titsues of the body, deposit it&#13;
there, receiving in return carbonic&#13;
acid eras, which is carried to the Jungs&#13;
atfd expelled. Thus there is a respiration'&#13;
tn the lungs and a respiration&#13;
in* the5 tissues. Both are necessary&#13;
to health and without good ventilationneither&#13;
can be propetly secured.&#13;
Oar excretions are poison, to us. R«-&#13;
breatbinp exhaled air loaded as it&#13;
is with exhalations from the skin also&#13;
poisons the blood, causing rapid aird irregular&#13;
action of the heart, labored&#13;
respiration and dilated pupils.&#13;
"* With an insufficient supply of {rood&#13;
Air, the waste matter accumulating in&#13;
brain and muscle is not removed; hence&#13;
jresnlts headaobe, dizziness, loss of appetite,&#13;
and many other ills.&#13;
Breathing impure air disorders&#13;
the nervons «y«tem, stupefies tbe brain&#13;
which cannot do its best work when'&#13;
effete matters are retained within itt&#13;

Whatthe U. of M. costs You.&#13;
The University of Michigan is supported&#13;
largely by one-quarter mill tax&#13;
on the assessed valuation of tbe state.&#13;
A man whose property is assessed at&#13;
$500. pays for the support of the University&#13;
1 2 | cents a year—a cent a&#13;
month. If a citizen owns a farm assessed&#13;
at $2,000, he pays fifty cents&#13;
a year to the University. This payment&#13;
of fifty cents is all it costs him&#13;
to have at his command for his and&#13;
his neighbor's children, an education ) been unaole to learn any other place&#13;

TEEPLE &amp; CADWELL&#13;
With this issue the DISPATCH passes&#13;
another mile-stone in its career and as&#13;
we look back over the past twelve&#13;
months we are well pleased, While&#13;
we could have done more work and&#13;
our advertising patronage couUi have&#13;
been better we will not complain tor&#13;
we have enough to-live on and if we&#13;
hold out health will meat our payments&#13;
as they come due with the help&#13;
of our many friends in paying up the&#13;
small amounts due us.&#13;
During the year that has passed we&#13;
have purchased and moved into a&#13;
home of our own and now are able to&#13;
meet all of our friends on tbe ground&#13;
floor. (Do not forget this when you&#13;
come to settle your subscription.)&#13;
While our advertising patronage&#13;
has not been any greater than last&#13;
year, our job department never was&#13;
so busy as during the year that is just&#13;
closing, We cannot help but attribute&#13;
this to our continued reaching&#13;
out after more work by a liberal use&#13;
of printers ink in the form of special&#13;
advertising. We always believed that&#13;
advertising paid and have proven it&#13;
true.&#13;
Some people may say that it is easy&#13;
for us to advertise as it does not cost&#13;
us anything, but we actually pay as&#13;
much or more in cash for our advertising&#13;
as any merchant in town, and&#13;
we are not doing it for fun either—it&#13;
pays or we would not continue.&#13;
While we would be glad for a large&#13;
increase in this line for tbe coming&#13;
year we are thankful for the support&#13;
given us and wish all of our patrons&#13;
a Merry Xraa9 and a Happy, prosper*&#13;
ous New Year.&#13;

@^r&#13;
Why Should Calamity&#13;
Be Full of&#13;
Words r&#13;
The mere saying of-words is&#13;
easy, and some men devote&#13;
their whole lives to it. They&#13;
talk rather than act. The calamity&#13;
howlers in any community&#13;
are of this kind.&#13;
While the unsuccessful business&#13;
man is talking the successful&#13;
man is acting. When he&#13;
speaks he uses words, but he&#13;
tells facts. He seldom, however,&#13;
depends upon his own&#13;
voice.&#13;
He brings to his aid the trumpet tangoed&#13;
voice of the press.&#13;
* He purchases space in the&#13;
advertising columns of his local&#13;
paper, and he uses it to good&#13;
advantage.&#13;
This is your local paperT&#13;
There is space in these columns&#13;
for use. Are you adding&#13;
its strength to your voice? 4&#13;
Properly used it will aid you. •&#13;

She stood before him like one of the&#13;
antique Greek statutes that look calmly&#13;
out from Jeweled eyes. Her cold&#13;
mouth curved a little.&#13;
"I suppose you mean that our expenditure&#13;
has been too heavy; that we&#13;
must retrench. You are dramatic about&#13;
it—as you are about everything." She&#13;
shrugged her shoulders. "And you&#13;
know that I detest the dramatic."&#13;
As he saw that still she did not understand*&#13;
the moisture came out on his&#13;
forehead.&#13;
"No, I do not mean that we must&#13;
retrench, as you conceive the word,&#13;
Rose. I mean that everything Is gone."&#13;
"Everything!"&#13;
"You will not starve. You wilt have&#13;
A house over your head. But—"&#13;
• "Thank you." She smiled ironically.&#13;
"That is much. Yes, I think I understand&#13;
now."&#13;
She turned to the door.&#13;
"Rose!" He called her back. His&#13;
eyes strained out of his ashen face.&#13;
**tt you knew—if you knew—how I&#13;
."have struggled against it! For months&#13;
it has been coming. But I always&#13;
hoped that I would retrieve all. One&#13;
unfortunate investment followed another.&#13;
Still I would not tell you; I&#13;
could not—could not! But now I will&#13;
explain everything."&#13;
""Oh, pray spare me!" She drew&#13;
aside the folds of her houserobe, as if&#13;
his outstretched hand might seize and&#13;
detain her. "I wish for no explanation&#13;
of disagreeable events. After our New&#13;
Tear's eve ball I will hear as much of&#13;
-what yotr may "have to" say as I care&#13;
to know—though speech is useless&#13;
enough now."&#13;
"'After the ball?" he repeated. "You&#13;
do not mean—it is not possible—that&#13;
you think of still giving this New&#13;
Year's ball?"&#13;
"Certainly." She gated at him coldly.&#13;
"This ball shall be given. My&#13;
invitations went out today."&#13;
"But it is monstrous!" cried Edwin&#13;
Thompson. "Do :«ou realize what will&#13;
be said of us? In a fortnight more the&#13;
whole world will know that I am a&#13;
bankrupt. My honor—-"&#13;
"Your honor!" she interrupted,&#13;
laughing a little. "A man who marries&#13;
. a girl above him socially, but of impoverished&#13;
family, under the claim of&#13;
being: wealthy, and who, five years later,&#13;
announces to her that he is bankrupt,&#13;
need talk little of his honor!"&#13;
She turned away again and finally,&#13;
as she uttered the words. They had&#13;
neen spoken in her even, clear, cruel&#13;
voice. Surely in the five years of their&#13;
married life Edwin Thompson had&#13;
.learned to know thoso tones we"l. They&#13;
liad never warmed with love or melted&#13;
^wfth tenderness. They had remained&#13;
what they had been when he, a selfmade&#13;
man, a man who had arrived at&#13;
great riches, despite his youth, had&#13;
ipaid his addresses to the daughter of&#13;
the old Viokas, and had been willing&#13;
that she should marry him without, as&#13;
she confessed with explicit calmness,&#13;
loving him in the least.&#13;
• * * • * *&#13;
Mrs. Edwin Thompson had given her&#13;
ball and it marked the summit of the&#13;
holiday season. The early morning&#13;
hours wore on towards the dawn. The&#13;
fault carriage rolled away. Mrs. Thomps&#13;
o n would fall; but it would be a fall&#13;
•enwrapped in splendor.&#13;
8he was about to move past her hus-&#13;
'band without a word. He checked her.&#13;
"I have been waiting to see you un-&#13;
~tll the last guest had gone. There has&#13;
happened one thing of which I wish to&#13;
speak to you—very briefly. I shall not&#13;
keep you long. I had a relative—an&#13;
uncle of my mother. He was an unmarried&#13;
man, and rich. For years we&#13;
held no communication with each other.&#13;
It came to me that I would appeal&#13;
to him—not for myself—for you."&#13;
He paused. She stood, her head half&#13;
•verted, reluctantly waiting. He&#13;
looked at her. She did not see the&#13;
glance. He resumed. •&#13;
"I wrote three days ago. Today I re-&#13;
• wived this letter." He took out a folded&#13;
sheet. "It is from the. old man's&#13;
lawyer. My mother's uncle died a&#13;
week ago, and I am heir-at-law of all&#13;
his property.&#13;
The silence that fell upon the great&#13;
room,could almost be heard. Not a&#13;
-muscle ef Rose's body moved. Her&#13;
head was still averted.&#13;
"**!. tell you thia, because It is you—&#13;
not I—-who hereafter will own this fortune.&#13;
That la all.". . . . . . .&#13;
When she turaoA.j&amp;8£ply he was&#13;
gone. The blood surged to her cheeks,&#13;
and left them again deadly pale. Was&#13;
it true? Yet; she .knew that it was.&#13;
fine m2«ht taun* hlni with having won&#13;
her by false claims, but she knew, in&#13;
her soul, that falsity and he could not&#13;
together be mentioned. His word was&#13;
never doubted. What did he mean,&#13;
then, by saying that his fortune, which&#13;
had fallen to him in the hour of di?&#13;
rect need, like rain from the clouds,&#13;
was to be hers, not his? Gathering up&#13;
the long, rustling train of her balldress,&#13;
she mounted the stairs, pushed&#13;
open the door of his dressing room—&#13;
"Edwln-my God!"&#13;
The cry broke from the lips that had&#13;
grown stiff and still.. She crept forward.&#13;
Her white arm' and wrist struck&#13;
against his uplifted hand.&#13;
"Edwin! Why did you do this? You&#13;
were about to take your life! Why?&#13;
Why?"&#13;
Her hands closed upon his wrist.&#13;
The vice-like pressure recalled him&#13;
from the trance in which he had stood&#13;
until then.&#13;
"Why not?" He spoke hoarsely.&#13;
"Can you love me? Can anything recall&#13;
the words you uttered two week3&#13;
ago?"&#13;
"Edwin! Forget them! Forget!" ,&#13;
"I thought I knew you," he went on&#13;
as before. "I thought I knew you as&#13;
cold—but not—not as you revealed&#13;
yourself that day. I always hoped,&#13;
hoped for your heart some time. That&#13;
afternoon I saw you and your heart as&#13;
they were. You have what you wish—&#13;
a fortune. Me you will not need."&#13;
"I do!" she cried. "You must listen&#13;
to me. You must understand me,&#13;
though I scarcely understand myself.&#13;
My heart was cruel and cold because it&#13;
had never been awakened. I never&#13;
knew you as you are—as the man you&#13;
are!"&#13;
• * • • * *&#13;
Edwin Thompson and his wife have&#13;
been abroad two years. Theirs is a&#13;
harmonious household. Their fortune&#13;
generously expended draws society&#13;
about them. But Mrs. Thompson has&#13;
ceased to be a "society woman."&#13;
"Since when have you so changed,&#13;
Rose?" asks her friends.&#13;
She smiles in a sad yet happy way&#13;
and replies:&#13;
"Since my last New Year's ball."&#13;
How t h e Boys View it.&#13;
"Say," said one small boy the othei&#13;
afternoon, "has your mother begun t'&#13;
hurl th' Santa Claus gag into you&#13;
yet?"&#13;
"Aw, sure.-" was the reply. *T bin&#13;
gittln' that fr a couple o' months now.&#13;
Ev'ry time I make a break she points&#13;
her finger at me and tells me Santa&#13;

"What d'ye do then?"&#13;
"Aw, what else would I do but let&#13;
her go on thinkln' that I b'lleve in&#13;

"That's right, all right." said the&#13;
other boy. "Y' might Jes' as well let&#13;

said the other boy, and then they went&#13;
on playing shinny.&#13;
And a man who had overheard the&#13;
conversation strolled away with a feeling&#13;
that the world is growing a bit&#13;
hoar and sad.—Chicago Chronicle.&#13;
In Tennessee Mountains.&#13;
The residents of the East Tennessee&#13;
mountains celebrate Christmas day&#13;
with a barbecue. An ox or steer is&#13;
prepared for roasting, the interior is&#13;
filled with chickens, ducks, wild turkeys&#13;
and birds, and the whole is suspended&#13;
over a huge wood fire which 13&#13;
built in some convenient outdoor locality.&#13;
The guests come from adjacent&#13;
counties in great wagons covered with&#13;
cornstalks, from beneath which black&#13;
jugs are drawn and their contents&#13;
sampled.&#13;
There are side-issues in the shape&#13;
of small fires at which the boys roast&#13;
the fat coons captured in their coon&#13;
hunts, and there Is a fiddler who no&#13;
sooner starts up "The Arkansaw Traveler"&#13;
than old and young begin to&#13;
dance.&#13;
Ice cream there is none and bonbons&#13;
are unknown, but cider and gingerbread&#13;
abound. Often girls, escorted&#13;
by their admirers, will walk seven&#13;
miles to attend.&#13;
For this remarkable feast of Christmas&#13;
of the olden time a favorite English&#13;
dish was plum porridge. The&#13;
Englishmen of the early centuries ate&#13;
his plum porride with a zest he might&#13;
well have saved for the more elaborate&#13;
dishes. After such a bowl of porridge&#13;
as he considered his portion&#13;
there Is erason to wonder where&#13;
he found place for his after-courses.&#13;

pHAPTER XVI.&#13;
In an obscure room of a lo**7 and&#13;
dilapidated -lodging house; in-a levatahd&#13;
dilapidated ndgfrborhood, there- set a&#13;
man one evening In the coming twilight;&#13;
a towering, gaunt skeleton,&#13;
whose remarkably long arms and legs&#13;
looked little more than skin and bone.&#13;
The arms were fully exposed to view,&#13;
since their owner, though he possessed&#13;
and wore a waistcoat, dispensed with&#13;
the use of a shirt. An.article, once a&#13;
coat, lay on the floor, to be donned&#13;
at will—if it could be got into for&#13;
the holes. The man sat on the floor&#13;
in a corner, his head finding a resting&#13;
place against the wall, and he had&#13;
dropped into a light sleep, but if ever&#13;
famine was depicted in a face, it was&#13;
in his. Unwashed, unshaven, with&#13;
matted hair and feverish lips; the&#13;
cheeks were hollow, the nostrils&#13;
white and pinched, and the skin&#13;
around the mouth had a blue tinge.&#13;
Some one tried and shook the door; it&#13;
aroused him, and he started up, but&#13;
only to cower in a bending attitude&#13;
and listen.&#13;
"I hear you," cried a voice. "How&#13;
are you tonight, Joe? Open the door."&#13;
The voice was not one he knew; not&#13;
one that might be responded to.&#13;
"Do you call, this politeness, Joe&#13;
Nicholls? If you don't open the door, I&#13;
shall take the liberty of opening it for&#13;
myself, which will put you to the&#13;
trouble of mending the fastenings&#13;
afterwards."&#13;
"Who are you?" cried Nicholls, reading&#13;
determination in the voice. "I'm&#13;
gone to bed, and can't admit folks&#13;
tonight."&#13;
"Gone to bed at 8 o'clock?"&#13;
"Yes; I'm ill."&#13;
"I will give you one minute, and&#13;
then I come in. You will open it if&#13;
you want to save trouble."&#13;
Nicholls yielded to his fate and&#13;
opened the door.'&#13;
The gentleman—he looked like one&#13;
—cast his keen eyes around the room.&#13;
There was not a vestige of furniture&#13;
in it; nothing but the bare, dirty&#13;
walls, from which the mortar crumbled,&#13;
and the bare, dirty boards.&#13;
"What did you mean by saying you&#13;
were gone to bed, eh.Zl'&#13;
"So 1 was. I was asleep there,"&#13;
pointing to the corner, "and there's&#13;
my bed. What do you want?" added&#13;
Nicholls, peering at the stranger's&#13;
face in the gloom of the evening, but&#13;
seeing it imperfectly, for his hat was&#13;
drawn low over it.&#13;
"A little talk with you. The last&#13;
sweepstake you got into—"&#13;
The man lifted his face and burst&#13;
forth with such eagerness that the&#13;
stranger could only arrest his own&#13;
words and listen.&#13;
"It was a swindle from beginning to&#13;
end. I had scraped together the ten&#13;
shillings to put in it, and I drew the&#13;
right horse and was shuffled out of&#13;
the gains and I have never had my&#13;
dues, not a farthing of 'em. Since then&#13;
I have been ill, and I can't get about&#13;
to better myself. Are you come, sir,&#13;
to make it right?"&#13;
"Some"—the stranger coughed—&#13;
"friends of mine were in it, also," said&#13;
he; "and they lost their money."&#13;
"Everybody lost it; the getters-up&#13;
bolted with all they had drawn into&#13;
their fingers. Have they been took,&#13;
do you know?"&#13;
"All in good time; they have left&#13;
their trail. So you have been ill, have&#13;
you?"&#13;
"111! Just take a sight of me!&#13;
There's an arm for a big man."&#13;
He stretched out his naked arm for&#13;
inspection; it appeared as if a touch&#13;
would snap it. The stranger laid his&#13;
hand upon its fingers, and his other&#13;
hand appeared to be stealing furtively&#13;
toward his own pocket.&#13;
"I should say this looks like starvation,&#13;
Joe."&#13;
"Some'at nigh akin to it."&#13;
A pause of unsusplcion and the&#13;
handcuffs were clapped on the astonished&#13;
man. He started up with an&#13;
oath.&#13;
"No need to make a noise, Nicholls,"&#13;
said the detective with a careless air.&#13;
"I have got two men waiting outside."&#13;
"I swear I wasn't In the plate robberv."&#13;
oassionatelv uttered the man.&#13;
"I knew of it, but I didn't join 'em,&#13;
and I never had the worth of a salt&#13;
spoon after it was melted down. And&#13;
they call me a coward, and they leave&#13;
me here to starve and die! I swear&#13;
I wasn't in it."&#13;
"Well, we'll talk about the plate&#13;
robbery another time," said the officer,&#13;
as he raised his hat; "you have got&#13;
those bracelets on, my man, for another&#13;
sort of bracelet. A diamond one.&#13;
Don't you remember me?"&#13;
The prisoner's mouth fell.&#13;
"I thought that was over and done&#13;
with all this time—I don't know what&#13;
you mean," he added, correcting himeelfc&#13;
"No," said the officer, "it's Just heginning.&#13;
The bracelet is found and&#13;
has been traced to you. You were a&#13;
clever fellow, and I had my doubts of&#13;
~ *you at the time; I thought you were&#13;
too clever to go on long."""&#13;
"I-sheuld* W ashamed tdj play the&#13;
sneak and eatdya fellow Imthis way.&#13;
Why couldn't you come openly in&#13;
your proper clothes?.not come playing&#13;
the spy in the garb Of a fridndly civilian."&#13;
"My men are in their 'proper&#13;
clothes,'" returned the equable officer,&#13;
"and you will have the honor of their&#13;
escort presently. I came because they&#13;
did not know you, and I did."&#13;
"Three officers to a single man, and&#13;
he a skeleton!" uttered Nicholls, with&#13;
a vast show of indignation.&#13;
"Ay! but you were powerful once&#13;
and ferocious, too. The skeleton aspect&#13;
is a recent one."&#13;
"And all for nothing. I don't know&#13;
about any bracelets."&#13;
"Don't trouble yourself with inventions,&#13;
Nicholls. Your friend is safe in&#13;
our hands, and has made a full confession."&#13;
"What friend?" asked Nicholls, too&#13;
eagerly.&#13;
'The lady you got to dispose of it&#13;
for you to the Jew." ,&#13;
Nicholls was startled to^lncaution.&#13;
"She hasn't split, has she;?"&#13;
"Every particular she jknew or&#13;
guessed at. Split to save herself."&#13;
"Then there's no faith in woman."&#13;
"There never was yet," returned the&#13;
officer, "if they are not at the top and&#13;
bottom of every mischief, Joe, they are&#13;
sure to be in the middle. Is this your&#13;
coat?" touching it gingerly.&#13;
"She's a disgrace to the female sex,&#13;
she is," raved Nicholls, disregarding&#13;
the question as to the coat. "But it's a&#13;
relief now I'm took, it's a weight off&#13;
my mind; I was always expecting of it,&#13;
and I shall get food in the Old Bailey&#13;
at any rate."&#13;
"Ah," said the officer, "you were in&#13;
good service as a respectable servant;&#13;
you had better have stuck to your&#13;
duties."&#13;
"The temptation was so great," observed&#13;
the man, who had evidently&#13;
abandoned all idea of denial; and now&#13;
that he had done so, was ready to be&#13;
voluble with remembrance and particulars.&#13;
"Don't say anything to me," said&#13;
-the-officer. "It will be used against&#13;
you."&#13;
"It came along of my long legs,"&#13;
cried Nicholls, ignoring the friendly&#13;
injunction, and proceeding to enlarge&#13;
on the feat he had performed. "I&#13;
have never had a~"happy hour since; I&#13;
was second footman there, and a good&#13;
place I had; and I had wished, thousands&#13;
of times, that the bracelet had&#13;
been in a sea of molten fire. Our folks&#13;
had taken a house in the neighborhood&#13;
of Ascot for the race week, and they&#13;
had left me at home to take care of&#13;
the kitchen maid, and another inferior&#13;
or two, taking the rest of the servants&#13;
with them. I had to clean the winders&#13;
afore they returned, and I had&#13;
druv it off till the Thursday evening,&#13;
and out I got on the balqueny, to begin&#13;
with the back drawing room."&#13;
"What did you say you got out on?"&#13;
"The balqueny. The thing with the&#13;
green rails around it, what encloses&#13;
the windows. While I was leaning&#13;
over the rails afore I begun, I heard&#13;
somehing like click—click agoing on&#13;
in the fellow room at the next door,&#13;
which was Colonel Hope's. It was&#13;
like as if something light was being&#13;
laid on the table, and presently I heard&#13;
two voices beginning to talk, a lady's&#13;
and a gentleman's, and I listened—"&#13;
"No good ever comes of listening,&#13;
Joe!" Interrupted the officer.&#13;
'T didn't listen for the sake of listening,&#13;
but it was awful hot, a standing&#13;
outside there in the sun, and listening&#13;
was better than working. I&#13;
didn't want to hear neither, for I was&#13;
thinking of my own concerns, and&#13;
what a fool I was to have idled away&#13;
my time all day till the sun came on&#13;
to the back winders. Bit by bit I&#13;
heerd what they were talking about—&#13;
that it was jewels they had got there,&#13;
and that one was worth 200 guineas.&#13;
Thinks I, if that was mine, I'd do no&#13;
more work. After awhile I heerd&#13;
them go out of the room, and T&#13;
thought I'd have a look at the rich&#13;
things, and I stepped over slanting&#13;
ways on to the little ledge running&#13;
along the houses, holding on by our&#13;
balqueny, and then I passed my hands&#13;
along the wall till I got hold of the&#13;
balqueny—but one with ordinary legs&#13;
and arms couldn't have done it. You&#13;
couldn't, sir!"&#13;
"Perhaps not," remarked the officer.&#13;
"There wasn't fur to fall if I had&#13;
fell, only on to the kitchen leads under;&#13;
but I didn't fall, and I raised&#13;
myself on to their balqueny, and looked&#13;
in. My! what a show it was! stunning&#13;
jewels, all laid out there; so&#13;
close that if I had put my hand inside&#13;
It must have struck all among 'em;&#13;
and the fiend prompted me to take&#13;
one. r didn't stop t*'look; I didn't&#13;
sttfp to think; the one that twinkled&#13;
the brightest, and had the most stones&#13;
in it was the nearest to me, and I&#13;
r&#13;
&lt;¥*&#13;
clutched It and flipped it into my \ • /&#13;
footman's undress jacket, and ste,ppe4 „&#13;
back again."&#13;
"And g^^rtfer^fato four own baU ;.&#13;
cony." • '&#13;
*;Yes;, but { &lt;Udn/t clean the windei&#13;
tnat nighl' i ipaVumwUlke by what&#13;
I had done, and I think; it I could&#13;
have put it back agath, I should; but&#13;
there was no bpiibi'tiifllty. I wrapped&#13;
It up in my winder leather, and then&#13;
in a sheet of paper, and then I put it,&#13;
up the chimbley in one of the spare&#13;
bedrooms. I was up the next morning&#13;
afore 5, and I .cleaned,,my winders;&#13;
I'd no trouble to awake myself, for I&#13;
had never slept. The same day toy&#13;
wards evening you called sir, and&#13;
asked me some questions—whether we&#13;
had seen any one on the leads at the&#13;
back, and such like. I said, as master&#13;
was just come home from Ascot,&#13;
would you be pleased to speak to him."&#13;
"Ah," again remarked the officer,&#13;
"you were a clever, fellow that day.&#13;
But if my suspicions had not been&#13;
strongly directed to another quarter,&#13;
I might have looked you up more&#13;
sharply." " , . , . ,&#13;
"I kep* it by me for a month or two,&#13;
and then I gave warning to leave. I&#13;
thought I'd have my fling, and I became&#13;
acquainted witi her—that laay—&#13;
and somehow she wormed out of me&#13;
that I had got it, and let her dispose&#13;
of It for me, for she said, she knew how&#13;
to do it without danger."&#13;
"What* did you get for it??'&#13;
The skeleton shook his,head. Thirtyfour&#13;
jponnd, and .^ had counted on a&#13;
hundred and fifty.' She took an oath&#13;
she bad not helped herself to a sixpence."&#13;
, ,&#13;
"Oaths are plentiful with the genus,"&#13;
remarked the detective.&#13;
"She stood to it she hadn't, and she&#13;
stopped and helped me to spend it.&#13;
After that was done, she went over&#13;
to somebody else who was in luck;&#13;
and I have tried to go on, and I can't&#13;
honestly or dishonestly; it seems all&#13;
one; nothing prospers, and I'm naked&#13;
and famishing—and I wish I was dying."&#13;

"Evil courses never do prosper, *&#13;
Nicholls," said the officer, as he called&#13;
In the policemen, and consigned the&#13;
prisoner to their care.&#13;
So Gerard was innocent!&#13;
"But how was it you skillful detectives&#13;
could not be on this man's&#13;
scent?" asked Colonel Hope of the officer,&#13;
when ho heard the tale.&#13;
"Colonel? I was thrown off. Your&#13;
positive belief In your nephew's guilt&#13;
infected me, and appearances were&#13;
very strong against him. Miss Seaton&#13;
also helped to throw me off; she said,&#13;
If you remember, that she did nofT&#13;
leave the room; but it now appears&#13;
she did leave it when your nephew did,&#13;
though only for a few moments. Those&#13;
few moments sufficed to do the job."&#13;
"It's strange she could not tell the&#13;
exact truth," growled the colonel.&#13;
"She probably thought she was exact&#13;
enough since she only remained outside&#13;
the door and could answer for it&#13;
that no one had entered by it. She&#13;
forgot the window. 1 thought of the&#13;
window the instant the loss was mentioned&#13;
to me, but Miss Seaton's assertion&#13;
that she never had the window out&#13;
of her view prevented my dwelling on&#13;
it. I did go to the next door, and saw&#13;
the very fellow who committed the&#13;
robbery, but his manner was sufficiently&#13;
satisfactory. He. talked too freely;&#13;
I did not like that; but I found he had&#13;
been in the same service 15 months,&#13;
and, as I must repeat, I laid the guilt&#13;
to another."&#13;
"It is a confoundedly unpleasant affair&#13;
for me," cried the colonel; "I have&#13;
published my nephew's disgrace and&#13;
guilt all over London."&#13;
"It is more unpleasant for him,&#13;
colonel," was the rejoinder of the officer.&#13;
"And I have kept him short of&#13;
money, and suffered him to be sued&#13;
for debt, and I have let him go and&#13;
live amongst the runaway scamps over&#13;
the water, and not hindered his engaging&#13;
himself as a merchant's clerk; and,&#13;
in short, I have played the very deuce&#13;
with him."&#13;
"But reparation is, doubtless, in your&#13;
heart and hands, colonel."&#13;
"I don't know that, sir," testily concluded&#13;
the colonel.&#13;

Automobile Poach9M.&#13;
A Paris correspondent tel)a of some&#13;
wholesale poaching of automobilists,&#13;
who used their "car" as a trap for&#13;
the game and made off with enormous&#13;
"bags" of plunder while. the&#13;
gamekeeper slept. The trick was so&#13;
clever that, barring- the feelings of&#13;
the birds who failed of being "preserved"&#13;
for the guns of sporting owners,&#13;
, the automobile poachers must be&#13;
congratulated on accomplishing their&#13;
purpose. They pretended to have&#13;
broken down while driving along the&#13;
high road, and told the peasants and&#13;
the gamekeeper, with many lamentations,&#13;
they would be forced to remain&#13;
all night in the field adjacent. The&#13;
gamekeeper, though he says it was&#13;
against his will, aided the men in&#13;
moving the car to , a place of safety&#13;
until certain, repairs could be effected.&#13;
These "repalra** were made rn the&#13;
dead of night by robbing the preserves&#13;
of nearly every partridge and&#13;
quail they contained and making off—&#13;
with the booty. ''&#13;

- The following custom has&#13;
sprung up in many of the villages&#13;
of Austria, where numerous temperence&#13;
societies have beerT formed:.&#13;
The peasants bury a small&#13;
cask of brandy, and raise a mound&#13;
with a cross on it having this inscription:&#13;
"To remind us for all&#13;
time that we have promised to&#13;
drink no more brandy,'*&#13;
Prof. Huxley, one of the ablest&#13;
and most profound thinkers of&#13;
the last century, in a letter dated&#13;
April 9, 1899, states his opiuion&#13;
in regard to the use of alcohol in&#13;
brain work. In answer to the inquiry&#13;
of a gentleman he w r i t e s :&#13;
"Speaking for myself, I can say'&#13;
without hesitation that I would&#13;
just as soon take a dose of arsenic&#13;
as I would alcohol, under such&#13;
circumstances. Indeed, on the&#13;
whole, 1 should think the arsenic&#13;
safer, less likely to lead to physical&#13;
and moral degradation. It&#13;
would be better to die outright&#13;
than to be alcoholized before&#13;
death."&#13;
The Russian government is encouraging&#13;
temperance societies,&#13;
having appropriated large amount&#13;
to aid in the prosecution of their&#13;
work. The appropriation for 1900&#13;
was $1,290,719. It is expected&#13;
that by the end of 1902 every one&#13;
of the 78 provinces of Russia, including&#13;
Siberia, will have been included&#13;
in the sphere of activity of&#13;
these societies. The leading newspaper&#13;
of Russia has repeatedly&#13;
stated that the most important&#13;
impediment in the way of Russia's&#13;
rapid progrrss 1 i es in those " tw i u&#13;
relics of .barbarism"—illiteracy&#13;
and intemperance among the peasant&#13;
classes, which comprise 75&#13;
per cent, of the population.&#13;

Wagner and the Flayer.&#13;
When Richard Wagner was conductor&#13;
of the Royal Opera in Dresden, the&#13;
orchestra of that institution, though&#13;
one of the best in Germany, was far&#13;
from being as good as it Is now, and&#13;
Wagner had a good deal ,of trouble iu&#13;
making it follow his intentions. Some&#13;
years later, when he was living as oil&#13;
exile in Zurich, he undertook to train&#13;
the local .orchestra. After a few attempts&#13;
he exclaimed, "Gentlemen, you&#13;
have just given me a great pleasure;&#13;
you have played exactly as badly as&#13;
the Dresden orchestra."&#13;
The Zurich players laughed, and the&#13;
Idea that they might play better than&#13;
the royal musicians in Dresden so fired&#13;
their zeal that they actually succeeded&#13;
in doing it.&#13;

Deo. 11, 1901.&#13;
Dear Sir:&#13;
As a great many of&#13;
your readers are acquainted with&#13;
the trip to Chicago 1 will not say&#13;
anything about that part of the&#13;
journey. I arrived in Chicago on&#13;
Tuesday morning at about eight&#13;
o'clock and as I could not leave&#13;
until six p. m. I had a good&#13;
chance to visit interesting parts of&#13;
the city, which I did.&#13;
Chicago was a very interesting&#13;
city to me as I had never been&#13;
there before. Some places of interest&#13;
were the stock show and&#13;
yards, the grand and large bui ldings&#13;
on State St., the docks, train,&#13;
yards, and another interest were&#13;
the pickpockets which were numerous.&#13;
I believe had I not been&#13;
warned by a gentleman who knew&#13;
the ways of them I should have&#13;
been in the city without a cent,&#13;
before night. They will do anything,&#13;
you will think they are&#13;
going to be a very accomodating&#13;
friend and will show you all&#13;
around the city but before you&#13;
are aware of it you are among 15&#13;
or 20 rogues who are going to&#13;
have what valuables you have.&#13;
My journey the remaining distance&#13;
was very pleasant. I left&#13;
Chicago on Tuesday at six p. m.&#13;
on the Santa Fe R. R. The train&#13;
I came on contained three baggage,&#13;
two smokers, eight day&#13;
coaches and five sleepers. Each&#13;
car was full as could be.&#13;
The first sight in the morning&#13;
was the Mississippi River at Ft.&#13;
Madison.&#13;
The river at this place is, I was&#13;
told, one mile in breadth and the&#13;
railroad bridge which spans it is&#13;
a little more than a mile long.&#13;
The river is very deep, aud the&#13;
water is quite dark and muddy.&#13;
Through the state of Missouri to&#13;
the Missouri river the country is&#13;
about the same all th e way, it is&#13;
rather rolling with low hills.&#13;
The crops are rather poor cornbeing&#13;
the princip le crop, very&#13;
little of it is cut nearly all picked.&#13;
There were many fields, I could&#13;
safely say, contained 100 acres of&#13;
corn; the rows go as far as the eye&#13;
could see, and as straight as a line&#13;
could be draw%. Most of the&#13;
fields were level, the rough land&#13;
not being worked at all. There is&#13;
but little timber, the largest being&#13;
about 18 to 30 inches in diameter.&#13;
The Missouri river was one of&#13;
the greatest of sights I have seen.&#13;
I t is-ciossed six times by the railroad&#13;
before reaching Kansas City&#13;
Kan. The river bed is from 40&#13;
to 160 rods in width and at this&#13;
time of the year, the part I saw&#13;
contains very little water.&#13;
I have seen as high as six&#13;
streams in the river bed, the remainder&#13;
of the bed is clean white&#13;
sand and is used by many as a&#13;
wagon road this time of the year.&#13;
, The railroad alone the river is&#13;
very crooked and in some of the&#13;
curves you can look nearly directly&#13;
down and see water.&#13;
This is in western Missouri the&#13;
river bottom—as it is called—is a&#13;
level valley sometimes only three&#13;
or four miles in breadth, others&#13;
as far as the eye can see and on&#13;
each side is a bank from 20 to 200&#13;
feet high, in places very steep,&#13;
nearly straight up and often&#13;
rocky.&#13;
The Sante Fe railroad most of&#13;
the way is south of the river and&#13;
on the river bottom. The river&#13;
is very crooked and runs first on&#13;
one side then oa the other of this&#13;
river bottom. Nothing grows in&#13;
here except what farmers raise—&#13;
except a very few weeds and very&#13;
seldom a tree, On the north side&#13;
of the river in the bottom is another&#13;
railroad and yon can see it&#13;
sometimes. When I come there&#13;
was a train on the road and it was&#13;
in sight all the time sometimes&#13;
very far off.&#13;
Kansas City Mo. is a very interesting&#13;
city, it contains very large&#13;
buildings and is very hilly. The&#13;
city centre being about 600 feet&#13;
higher than the tra^n yards. I n&#13;
the outskirts of town I saw hundreds&#13;
of cattle penned up and a&#13;
great many train loads on their&#13;
way to market.&#13;
I reachod Lawerence Kan, at&#13;
11:20 Wednesday a. m. This&#13;
town is about the size of Ann Arand&#13;
has the U. of K., Haskell Institute&#13;
and Indian school. A&#13;
very interesting place.&#13;

Jewels, candy, flowers, man—that is&#13;
the order of a woman's preferences.&#13;
Jewels form a magnet of migbty power&#13;

or save the money to purchase tbein.&#13;

races. The best wish for a baby&#13;
boy Is, "May you not die in your bed I"&#13;
and to face death Is, to man or boy,&#13;
only a joyous game, Says W. J. Stillman&#13;
in his "Autobiography:"&#13;
I have seen a man under a heavy&#13;
Turkish Are deliberately leave the&#13;
trenches and climb tho breastwork,&#13;
only to expose himself from sheer&#13;
bravado.&#13;
While lying at headquarters at Oreabuk,&#13;
awaiting the opening of the campaign&#13;
in 1S77, 1 was walking one day&#13;
with the prince, when a boy of 16 or 18&#13;
approached us, cap in baud.&#13;
"Now," said the prince, "I'll show you&#13;
an interesting thin^. This boy is the&#13;
last of a good family. His father and&#13;
brothers were all killed in the last battle,&#13;
and 1 ordered him to go home and&#13;
stay with his mother and sisters, that&#13;
the family might not become extinct."&#13;
The boy drew near and stopped before&#13;
us, his bead down, his cap in hand.&#13;
"What do you want?" asked the&#13;
prince.&#13;
"1 want to go back to my battalion."&#13;
"But," said the prince, "you are the&#13;
last of your line, and I cannot allow a&#13;
good family to be lost. You must go&#13;
home and take care of your mother."&#13;
The boy began to cry bitterly.&#13;
"Will you go home quietly and stay&#13;
there," said the prince, "or will you&#13;
take a flogging aud be allowed to&#13;
fight?"&#13;
Tho boy thought for a moment. A&#13;
flogsiug. he knew well, is the deepest&#13;
disgrace that can befall a Montenegrin.&#13;
"Well." he broke out, "since it isn't&#13;
for stealing, I'll bo flogged."&#13;
"No," said the prince, "you must go&#13;
home."&#13;
Then the boy broke down utterly.&#13;
"But," ho cried, "I wnut to avenge&#13;
my father and brothel's!"&#13;
lie went away still crying, and the&#13;
prince said: "Iu spitt of all this he&#13;
will be iu the next battle?'&#13;

An 4ntereetlng Letter.&#13;
Editor Dispatch:&#13;
As you requested&#13;
me, I gladly give those notes .of&#13;
my visit to Chicago and St. Louis&#13;
and how they appeared to me:&#13;
I gained a fair idea of Chicago&#13;
about the time of the World's&#13;
Fair, living there about 18 months&#13;
and the interval of eight years has&#13;
not changed my memory but has&#13;
inVtLtl7a¥^vrs"snentTburiie in- merely added to the greatness of&#13;
quired politely that as they would not&#13;
let hi in sleep would they let him come&#13;
In and watch the game?&#13;
They did so and were impressed with&#13;
the-.appearance of the man and asked&#13;
If he would join them.&#13;
"I will If you will post me; but, you&#13;
know, I'm a tenderfoot east," he replied.&#13;
They were willing to "post" him,&#13;
and, playing awkwardly, making blunders&#13;
and asking questions, but seenito&#13;
play until daylight, when he put his&#13;
winnings, some $1,500, in his pocket.&#13;
"I thank you, gentlemen," be said,&#13;
"and I'm rather glad you would not let&#13;
me sleep. I'll be here until tomorrow,&#13;
so keep me awake some more."&#13;
But the players did not appear again.&#13;
—Detroit Free Press.&#13;
the place in every way, fine office,&#13;
buildings, great stores, an improved&#13;

Cnicago's " I will" has-been in op-&#13;

B o r r o w i n g H a b i t s o f P o e t s .&#13;
On Tennyson's habit of failing to&#13;
recognize clearly his, own borrowings&#13;
from the classical poets, Mr. Lang observes&#13;
that the poets have always had&#13;
a.-kind of.jegal Indifference to their&#13;
own lighter productions. Mr. Lang&#13;
are four L roads equipped with&#13;
electric traction and all Joined by&#13;
a loop they all appear to be filled.&#13;
The steam roads are elevating&#13;
their tracks too, and in time there&#13;
will be no more grade crossings.&#13;
I presume, when I was in Chicago&#13;
last there was but one L road in&#13;
operation and only the J. C. had&#13;
elevated its road bed.&#13;
If Chicago could only provide&#13;
pavements that would keep down&#13;
to be certain which are of his own composition&#13;
and which are not.&#13;
"To take an example from the level&#13;
at the foot of Parnassus, I once read,&#13;
says: "Scott did not care; no, not when , . ,&#13;
he found that he had unwittingly taken | the everlasting, miserable, sticky&#13;
a line from a poem by the valet of a , black mud, then a visitor would&#13;

lection of verses from the novels he | n a t u r a W say&gt; ^ t n i s l s a S r e a t a n a&#13;
frankly declares that he cannot pretend j beautiful city."&#13;
If it had the harbor of Detroit&#13;
and the surface of St. Louis, Chicago&#13;
would be a favored city inln&#13;
an American paper, some lines at- i ¢ ^ Qf ajl t ^ change though&#13;
tributed to Mr. Austin Dobson. 'Not I . . , . - .. . ... ,&#13;

that Tennyson did this occasion- . -: . £ , .&#13;

it is a fine town, partly western,&#13;
partly southern in appearance,&#13;
with clever hospitable people who&#13;
appear to be well satisfied with&#13;
their city and proud to live in it.&#13;
When you visit St. Louis for&#13;
the f sir, the first admiration you&#13;
express, I warrant, will be for the&#13;
Union Station. I t is by all odds&#13;

When I wag-leasing it, with no&#13;
great load about me, and not far.&#13;
to go, ine fi'rs'f citizen'"to address&#13;
me was a young colored&#13;
man with **grip carried boss?"&#13;
and I couldn't but think, I am&#13;
further so uth than ever before&#13;
Now I've an idea if he were in&#13;
Chicago ne'd be too couceited for&#13;
that. They tell me they are few,&#13;
er here than in Chicago, but you&#13;
will surely think th ere is plenty&#13;
of them.&#13;
Here, for the first time 1 saw&#13;
teamsters riding the near wheeler&#13;
in a saddle and .$riving the lead&#13;
mule with a single line, the "jerk&#13;
line." TLatsa trick I'd like to&#13;
see tried on South Water st. Another&#13;
thiug seen the first time, a&#13;
sternwheel steamboat, a boat with&#13;
a wheel standing up out of water&#13;
and looking like a picture of an&#13;
old fashioned mill wheel.&#13;
I saw only one public park in&#13;
St. Louis, the La Fajette. Passing&#13;
through it I noticed a fine&#13;
statue, a man standing in an attitude&#13;
of speaking. On the front&#13;
of the pedestal this inscription:&#13;
There is the East.&#13;
Tfrpre is India.&#13;
At once I thought, this is an&#13;
Englishmen's monument, what is&#13;
it for?- I went back oi it and&#13;
there was the name "Benton" on&#13;
the back of the pedestal and certainly&#13;
I thought they chose well.&#13;
But what does that motto mean?&#13;
Speaking; of statues, I missed two&#13;
in Chicago, that of Columbus, on&#13;
the lake front and the Policemens&#13;
monument in the Haymarket. I&#13;
didn't learn what became of them&#13;
someone said, though that they&#13;
threw the Columbus into the lake.&#13;
Maybe Art is picking up in C iicago.&#13;
About the fair: It's going to be&#13;
America's greatest so far. Friday&#13;
the 20th is "ground-breaking day"&#13;
when President Frances takes a&#13;
very ornamental shovel and digs&#13;
up the first sod, that is, if a crowbar&#13;
isn't better.&#13;
I iook a ride out there so I can&#13;
say I've been on the grounds. I t&#13;
was called Forest Park. They&#13;
t h a n o n r road in Michigan but&#13;
maJ^ea^jQwe,! t|m£,&#13;
While in Chicago I heard the&#13;
Irish envoys, Redmond and His&#13;
colleagues at the auditorium, I&#13;
would gladly hear Bonke Cockrau&#13;
plead for the Boers but was unable&#13;
to go.&#13;
Speaking of the Boers, why&#13;
haven't they met with the sympathy&#13;
of Americans seeing they conend&#13;
for self-government? But&#13;
that is another matter.&#13;

"Thank you, Miss Croker," said&#13;
Maude. But Hay, remembering that&#13;
Miss Croker must have heard her say&#13;
she wished she would go home, wanted&#13;
to hide herself. However, she&#13;
came out from behind the curtain and&#13;
seated herself close to Estelle. Miss&#13;
Croker then gave them each a crochet&#13;
needle. "This blue ball Is for you,"&#13;
she said, placing the wool in Estelle's&#13;
lap. 'The mauve for you," and she&#13;
dropped another ball in Maude's&#13;
hands, "and the pink for little Rosy&#13;
Ray/'&#13;
The children laughed merrily, but&#13;
at the lady's last words their faces&#13;
grew very long. "Now, girls," "I&#13;
want three mats for my dressing case&#13;
at home andxI know you will be delighted&#13;
to make me a present before I&#13;
go, which will be very soon now." She&#13;
looked at Ray while she spoke and&#13;
then left the room.&#13;
"Horrid thing!" said Ray, as the&#13;
door close.!. "I&lt; won't knit a mat for&#13;
her. I thought she meant to give us&#13;
the wool."&#13;
"It just serves us right for talking&#13;
about mamma's friend as we did," replied&#13;
Estelle. "We will have to knit&#13;
them. Come, Ray, I'll begin yours,&#13;
and Maude, don't you remember?&#13;
Make a chain of three stitches and&#13;
the next row plain."&#13;
They were all three fond of this kind&#13;
of work and presently forgot their&#13;
disappointment.&#13;
The sun was just setting when Estelle&#13;
said: "There, that's the last of&#13;
the wool and my mat's done. But just&#13;
see what a big wad of paper Miss Croker&#13;
rolled her wool upon." She tossed&#13;
the paper under the grate and fastened&#13;
off her knitting neatly.&#13;
"And mine's finished," said Maude,&#13;
and here is another great roll of paper,&#13;
and there is something hard in&#13;
it. Maude opened it slowly, laughing&#13;
as she did so. A bright five dollar&#13;
gold piece.&#13;
"Oh, look! Just look! I wonder ii&#13;
Miss Croker meant to put it there!"&#13;
"I am sure I don't know," answered&#13;
Estelle, but wait until Ray has&#13;
finished her mat then we will go&#13;
and ask her."&#13;
"It is done," said Ray, "and here is&#13;
another five dollar gold piece. Estelle,&#13;
you'd better get a poker and pull&#13;
out that paper you threw under the&#13;
grate."&#13;
Estelle soon had the paper in her&#13;
hand, and sure enough, there was a&#13;
third gold piece hidden away in it.&#13;
"She must really intend them for&#13;
us," said Ray. "I feel so. ashamed&#13;
because she heard me say, 'I wish&#13;
she would go home.' "&#13;
While the three girls with the money&#13;
in their hand3 and the mats in their&#13;
laps were wondering what they ought&#13;
to do, Mi£s Croker walked in.&#13;
"So I see my mats are finished," sh«&#13;
said. "They are very pretty and I&#13;
will keep them always in remembrance&#13;
of my three little friends."'&#13;
Estelle held up the shining coin. "I&#13;
found this in my ball," she said.&#13;
"I put it there as a little surprise&#13;
for you," replied Miss Croker, "and&#13;
now I hope you can buy some small&#13;
gift for your mamma and papa. Then&#13;
she added, "Come, children, hurry on&#13;
your wraps and I will take you down&#13;
town to choose your presents."&#13;
Never did three little girls dress in&#13;
such short time.&#13;
Miss Croker took them to such wonderful&#13;
stores and was so pleasant and&#13;
kind that the three little girls never&#13;
forgot that New Year's Eve.&#13;
The gifts that they carried home to&#13;
their parents, which were selected&#13;
under Miss Croker's advice, were really&#13;
very pretty. . »&#13;
Estelle, Maude and May Robbins&#13;
stood in the window with their heads&#13;
close together.&#13;
"I am so sorry," whispered Estelle.&#13;
"I do so want to make mamma and&#13;
papa n New Year's present and I have&#13;
spent all my money—every cent."&#13;
"So have I," said Rosy, "and I have&#13;
not kept even a piece of ribbon or an&#13;
ounce of worsted."&#13;
"It is too dreadful," Maude whispered.&#13;
"If that horrid Miss Croker had&#13;
not insisted upon our buying those little&#13;
books at the fair we would all&#13;
have had plenty of money. I wonder&#13;
now long she is going to stay. She is&#13;
so fussy," said Maude. "Nothing suits&#13;
her. Sometimes she says: 'This egg&#13;
is too soft, Lizzie; take it away and&#13;
bring mc another.' Then Lizzie makes&#13;
up a face and I have to laugh."&#13;
"Well, but Maude," said Estelle, who&#13;
was the eldest, "that is wrong. The&#13;
girl who is hired to wait on the table&#13;
should never make faces, no matter&#13;
what happens; and you must never&#13;
laugh at her again. I am sure Miss&#13;
Croker saw you this morning."&#13;
"But she is fussy," said Ray, "and I&#13;
wish she would go home."&#13;
"Mamma likes her," replied Estelle.&#13;
"You know she was mamma's teacher&#13;
once and some one left her a big fortune&#13;
and so she stopped teaching."&#13;
"And mamma says, too, that she is&#13;
very charitable and gives heaps and&#13;
neaps to the poor people," put in Ray.&#13;
"Then I wish she had bought those&#13;
books herself instead of making us&#13;
spend all our money," grumbled&#13;
Maude.&#13;
"If we had been honest and said&#13;
right out, 'I want all my money for&#13;
"AND THE PINK FOR&#13;
ROSY RAY."&#13;
myself,' perhaps she would," said Estelle.&#13;
"Tomorrow is New Year's day. It&#13;
Is too late to get anything now," sighed&#13;
Ray.&#13;
"If we only had some of that lovely&#13;
wool Miss Croker has been winding&#13;
for the last three days, we could knit&#13;
mamma some beautiful mats lor her&#13;
dressing case. I could knit one before&#13;
dark," said Estelle, mournfully.&#13;
"Could you, my dear?" said a voice&#13;
close behind them.&#13;
The three children turned and saw&#13;
Miss Croker sitting in a rocking chair&#13;
Just behind them. They did not&#13;
know how long she had been there or&#13;
how much she had heard, but she had&#13;
three large balls of brilliant colored&#13;
wool in her lap.&#13;
"Are yon sure, Estelle, that you&#13;
could make a mat before dark?" said&#13;
Miss Croker, looking over her spectacles&#13;
at the three blushing faces before&#13;
her. Maude and Ray answered&#13;
"Yes." very shyly.&#13;
"Then," said ,: the lady, "sit down&#13;
there on the isafa and \ will give you*&#13;
each one of these balls of wool."&#13;
"You are very kind," said Estelle.&#13;
Brace up! .Acquit yourselves like men;&#13;
Swear off! And don't swear on again.&#13;

Washington, Dec. 22.—This discourse&#13;
of Dr. Talmage is full of the nativity&#13;
and appropriate for the holidays; text,&#13;
Luke ii., 16, "And they came with haste&#13;
and found Mary and Josoph, and the&#13;
babe lying in a manger."&#13;
The black window shutters of a December&#13;
night were thrown open and&#13;
some of the best singers of a world&#13;
where they all sing stood there, and&#13;
putting back the drapery of cloud&#13;
chanted a peace anthem until all the&#13;
echoes of hill and valley applauded&#13;
and encored the halleluiah chorus.&#13;
Come, let us go into that Christmas&#13;
scene as though we had never before&#13;
worshiped at the manger. Here is a&#13;
Madonna worth looking at. I wonder&#13;
not that the most frequent name in&#13;
all lands and in all Christian centuries&#13;
is Mary., And tlnre are Marys in palaces&#13;
and Marys in cabins, and, though&#13;
German and French ami Italian and&#13;
Spanish and English pronounce it differently,&#13;
they are all namesakes of the&#13;
one whom we find on a bed of straw,&#13;
with her pale face against the soft&#13;
cheek of Christ in the night of the&#13;
nativity. All the great painters have&#13;
tried, on canvas, to present Mary and&#13;
her child and the incidents of that&#13;
most famous night in the world's history.&#13;
Raphael, in three different masterpieces,&#13;
celebrated them. Tintoretto&#13;
and Ghirlandajo surpassed themselves&#13;
In the adoration of the magi. Correggio&#13;
needed to do no more than his Madonna&#13;
to become immortal. The "Madonna&#13;
of the Lily," by Leonardo da&#13;
Vinci, will kindle the admiration of&#13;
all ages. But all the galleries of Dresden&#13;
are forgotten when I think of the&#13;
small room of that gallery containing&#13;
the "Sistine Madonna." Yet all of them&#13;
were copies of St. Matthew's Madonna&#13;
and Luke's Madonna, the inspired&#13;
Madonna of the old book, which we&#13;
had put into our hands when we were&#13;
infants and that we hope to have under&#13;
our heads when we die.&#13;
Behold, in tiie first place, that on the&#13;
night of Christ's life God honored the&#13;
brute creation. You cannot go into&#13;
that Bethlehem barn without going&#13;
past the camels, the mules, the dogs,&#13;
the oxen. The brutes of that 3table&#13;
heard the first cry of the ir.fant Lord.&#13;
Some of the old painters represent the&#13;
oxen and camels kneeling that night&#13;
before the new-born babe. And well&#13;
might they kneel! Have you ever&#13;
thought that Christ came, among other&#13;
'Mugs, to alleviate the sufferings of&#13;
the brute creation? Was it not appropriate&#13;
that he should, during the first&#13;
few days and nights of his life on&#13;
earth, be surrounded by the dumb&#13;
beasts, whose moan and plaint and&#13;
bellowing have for age3 been a prayer&#13;
to God for the arresting of their tortures&#13;
and the righting of their wrongs?&#13;
Not a kennel in all the centuries, not&#13;
a bird's nest, not a worn-out horse on&#13;
towpath, not a herd freezing In the&#13;
poorly built cowpen, not a freight car&#13;
in summer time bring the beeves to&#13;
market without water through a thour&#13;
sand miles of agony, not a surgeon's&#13;
room witnessing the struggles of fox&#13;
or rabbit or pigeon or dog in the horrors&#13;
of vivisection, but has an interest&#13;
in the fact that Christ was born in&#13;
a stable surrounded by brutes.&#13;
Standing then, as I imagine now I&#13;
do, in that Bethlehem night with an&#13;
infant Christ on one side and the&#13;
speechless creatures of God on the&#13;
other, I cry: Look out how you strike&#13;
the rowel into that horse's side; take&#13;
off that curbed bit from that bleeding&#13;
mouth; remove that saddle from that&#13;
raw back; shoot not for fun that bird&#13;
that is too small for food; forget not&#13;
to put water into the cage of that&#13;
canary; throw out some crumbs to&#13;
those birds caught too far north in&#13;
the winter's inclemency; arrest that&#13;
man who is making that one horse&#13;
draw a load heavy enough for three;&#13;
rush In upon that scene where boys&#13;
are torturing a cat or transfixing a&#13;
butterfly and grasshopper; drive not&#13;
off that old robin, for her nest is a&#13;
mother's cradle and under her wing&#13;
there may be three or four musicians&#13;
of the sky in training. In your families&#13;
and in your schools teach the coming&#13;
generation more mercy than the&#13;
present generation has ever shown&#13;
and in this marvelous Bible picture of&#13;
the nativity, while you point out to&#13;
them the angel, show them also the&#13;
camel, and while they hear the celestial&#13;
chant let them also hear the cow's&#13;
moan.&#13;
Behold also in this Bible scene how&#13;
on that Christmas nisrht God honored&#13;
childhood. Childhood was to be honored&#13;
by that advent. He must have a&#13;
child's light limbs and a child's dimpled&#13;
hand and a child's beaming eye&#13;
and a child's flaxen hair, and babyhood&#13;
was to be honored for all time to come,&#13;
and a cradle was to mean more than a&#13;
grave. Mighty God, may the reflec-&#13;
Enough have a41 these fathers and&#13;
mothers on hand if they have a child&#13;
scernter• a S g ^ W , ' t t a d e r i charge.;] Be1&#13;
careful now you strike him across the&#13;
head, Jarring the brain. What you&#13;
say to him will be centennial and millennial,&#13;
and a hundred years and a&#13;
thousand years will not stop the echo&#13;
and re-echo. Do not say, "It is only&#13;
a child." Rath*? say, "It is only an&#13;
immortal." It is only a masterpiece of&#13;
Jehovah. It is only a being that shall&#13;
outlive sun and moon and star and&#13;
ages, quadriennial. God has infinite resources,&#13;
and he can give presents of&#13;
great value, but when he wants to&#13;
give the richest possible gift to a&#13;
household he looks around all the&#13;
worlds and all the universe and then&#13;
gives a child. Yea, in all ages God&#13;
has honored childhood. He makes almost&#13;
every picture a failure unless&#13;
there be a child either playing on the&#13;
floor or looking through the window&#13;
or seated on the lap gazing into the&#13;
face of the mother.&#13;
It was a child in Naaman's kitchen&#13;
that told the great Syrian warrior&#13;
where he might go and get cured of&#13;
the leprosy, which at his seventh&#13;
plunge in the Jordan was left at the&#13;
bottom of the river. It was to the&#13;
cradle of leaves in which a child was&#13;
laid, rocked by the Nile, that God&#13;
called the attention of history, It was&#13;
a sick child that evoked Christ's curative&#13;
sympathies. It was a child that&#13;
Christ set in the midst of the squabbling&#13;
disciples to teach the lesson of&#13;
humility.&#13;
A child decided Waterloo, showing&#13;
the army of Blucher how they could&#13;
take a short cut through the fields&#13;
when if the old road had been followed&#13;
the Prussian general would have come&#13;
up too late to save the destinies of&#13;
Europe. It was a child that decided&#13;
Gettysburg, he having overheard two&#13;
Confederate generals in a conversation&#13;
in which they decided to march for&#13;
Gettysburg Instead of Harrisburg. and.&#13;
this reported to Governor Curtin, the&#13;
Federai forces started to meet their&#13;
opponents at Gettysburg. And to-day&#13;
the child is to decide all the great&#13;
battles, make all the laws, settle all&#13;
the destinies and usher in the world's&#13;
salvation or destruction. Men, women,&#13;
nations, all earth and all heaven, behold&#13;
the child!&#13;
Notice also that In this Bible night&#13;
scene God honored science. Who are&#13;
the three wise men kneeling before the&#13;
Divine Infant? Not boor, not ignoramuses,&#13;
but Caspar, Balthasar and&#13;
Melchior, men who knew ail that was&#13;
to be known. They were the Isaac&#13;
Newtons and Herschels and Faradays&#13;
of their time. Their alchemy was the&#13;
forerunner of our sublime chemistry,&#13;
their astrology the mother of our magnificent&#13;
astronomy. And when I see&#13;
these scientists bowing before the&#13;
beautiful babe I see the prophecy of&#13;
the time when all the telesopes and&#13;
microscopes and all the Leyden jars&#13;
and all the electric batteries and all&#13;
the observatories ani all the universities&#13;
shall bow to Jesus. It is much&#13;
that way already. Where is the college&#13;
that does not have morning prayers,&#13;
thus bowing at the manger? Who have&#13;
been the greatest physicians? Omitting&#13;
the names of the living lest we&#13;
should be invidious, have we not had&#13;
among them Christian men like James&#13;
Y. Simpson and Ru3h and Valentine&#13;
Mott and Abercrombie and Abernethy?&#13;
Who have been our greatest scientists?&#13;
Joseph Henry, who lived and died in&#13;
the faith of the gospels, and Agassiz.&#13;
who, standing with his students among&#13;
the hills, took off his hat and said,&#13;
"Young gentlemen, before we study&#13;
these rocks let us pray for wisdom to&#13;
the God who made the rocks." All&#13;
geology will yet bow before the Rock&#13;
of Ages. All botany will yet worship&#13;
the Rose of Sharon. All astronomy&#13;
will yet recognise the Star of Bethlehem.&#13;
Behold also that on th?t Christmas&#13;
night God honored motherhood. Two&#13;
angels on their wings might have&#13;
b:ought an infant Savior to Bethlehem&#13;
without Mary's being there at&#13;
all. When the villagers on the morning&#13;
of December 26 awoke, by divine&#13;
arrangement and in some unexpected&#13;
way the child Jesus might have been&#13;
found in some comfortable cradle of&#13;
the village. But no. no! Motherhood&#13;
for ail time was to be consecrated, and&#13;
one of the tenderest relations was to&#13;
be the maternal relation and one of the&#13;
sweetest words "mother." In all ages&#13;
God has honored good motherhood.&#13;
John Wesley had a good mother. St.&#13;
Bernard had a good mother, Samuel&#13;
Budgett a good mother, Walter Scott&#13;
a good mother, Benjimin West a&#13;
good mother. In a great audience,&#13;
most of whom were Christians. I asked&#13;
that all those who had been blessed&#13;
of Christian mothers arise, and almost&#13;
tho entire assembly stood up. Do you&#13;
not see how important it is that all&#13;
motherhood be consecrated? Why did&#13;
Titian, the Italian artist, when he&#13;
sketched the Madonna make it an&#13;
Italian lace? Why did Rubens, the&#13;
German artist, in his Madonna make it&#13;
a German face? Why did Joshua Reynolds,&#13;
the English artist, In his Madonna&#13;
make it an English face? Wny&#13;
did Murillo, the Spanish artist, in&#13;
his Madonna make U a ftpanlafe tftcvf&#13;
I never heard, bat I think they took&#13;
their own mothers as _th&lt;a,t»e l«f&#13;
Mary, the mother of CKHsi " *&#13;
Tne 'first wort a cl#d Utter* * apt&#13;
t o U e "Mother!".and tft* old man Jn&#13;
his dying dream calls, "Mother, mother!"&#13;
It matters not whether aha was&#13;
brought up j n the surroundings of a&#13;
city and irf an affluent home and was&#13;
dressed appropriately with reference&#13;
to the demands of modem lite or&#13;
whether she wore the old time cap&#13;
and great round spectacles and apron&#13;
of her own make and knit your socks&#13;
with her own needles seated by the&#13;
broad fireplace, with great backlog&#13;
ablaze, on a winter's night; it mat'&#13;
ters not how many wrinkles crossed&#13;
and reerossed her face or how much&#13;
her shoulders stooped with the burdens&#13;
of a long life, if you painted a&#13;
Madonna hers would be the face. What&#13;
a gentle hand she had when we were&#13;
sick and what a voice to soothe pain,&#13;
and was there any one who could so&#13;
fill up a room with peace and purity&#13;
and light? And what a sad day that&#13;
was when we came home and she could&#13;
greet us not, for her lips were forever&#13;
still. Come back, mother, in&#13;
these Christmas times and take your&#13;
old place and as ten or twenty or fifty&#13;
years ago come and open the old Bible&#13;
as you used to, read and kneel in&#13;
the same place where you used to pray&#13;
and look upon us as of old when you&#13;
wished us a merry Christmas or a&#13;
happy New Year. But no! That would&#13;
not be fair to call you back. You had&#13;
troubles enough and aches enough and&#13;
bereavements enough while you were&#13;
here. Tarry by the throne, mother,&#13;
till we join you there, prayers all answered,&#13;
and in the eternal homestead&#13;
of our God we shall again keep Christmas&#13;
jubilee together. But speak from&#13;
your thrones, all you glorified mothers,&#13;
and say to all these, your sons and&#13;
daughters, words of love, words of&#13;
warning, words of cheer. They need&#13;
your voice, for they have traveled far&#13;
and with many a heartbreak since&#13;
you left them, and yon do well to call&#13;
from the heights of heaven to the valleys&#13;
of earth. Hail, enthroned ancestry!&#13;
We are coming. Keep a place&#13;
right beside you at the banquet.&#13;
Slow footed years! More swiftly run&#13;
Into the gold of that unsetting s'-n.&#13;
Homesick we are for thee,&#13;
Calm land beyond the sea.&#13;
Behold aLso in that first Chistmas&#13;
night that God honored the fields.&#13;
Come in, shepherd boys, to Bethlehem,&#13;
and see the child. "No," they say;&#13;
"we are not dressed good enough to&#13;
come in." "Yes, you are. Come in."&#13;
Sure enough, the storms and the night&#13;
dew and the brambles have made rough&#13;
work with their apparel, but none has&#13;
a better right to come in. They were&#13;
the first to hear the music of that&#13;
Christmas night. The first announcement&#13;
of a Savior's birth was made to&#13;
those men in the fields. There were&#13;
wiseacres that night in Bethlehem and&#13;
Jerusalem snoring in deep sleep, and&#13;
there were salaried officers of government&#13;
who, nearing of it afterward,&#13;
may have thought that they ought to&#13;
have had the first news of such a great&#13;
event, some one dismounting from a&#13;
swift oamel at their door and knocking&#13;
till at some sentinel's question,&#13;
"Who conies there?" the great ones of&#13;
the palace might have been told of the&#13;
celestial arrival. No; the shepherds&#13;
heard the first two bars of the music:&#13;
the first in the major key and the last&#13;
in the subdued minor, "Glory to God&#13;
in the highest and on earth peace,&#13;
good will to men.' Ah, yes, the fields&#13;
were honored.&#13;
The old shepherds, with plaid and&#13;
crook, have for the most part vanished,&#13;
but we have grazing on our&#13;
United States pasture fields and prairie&#13;
about 42,000,000 sheep, nnd all their&#13;
keepers ought to follow the shepherds&#13;
of my text and ali those who toil in&#13;
fields—all vine dressers, all orchardists,&#13;
all husbandmen. Not only that&#13;
Christmas night, but all up and down&#13;
the world's history, God has been honoring&#13;
the fields. Nearly all the messiahs&#13;
of reform and literature and eloquence&#13;
and law and benevolence have&#13;
come from the fields. Washington from&#13;
the fields. Jefferson from the fields.&#13;
The presidential martyrs, Garfield and&#13;
Lincoln and McKinley, from the fields.&#13;
Henry Clay from the fields. Daniel&#13;
Webster from the fields. Martin Luther&#13;
from the fields. Before this world&#13;
13 right the overflowing populations ol&#13;
our crowded cities will have to take to&#13;
the fields. Instead of, ten merchants&#13;
in rivalry as to who shall sell that one&#13;
apple we want at least eight of them&#13;
to go out and raise apples. Instead&#13;
of ten merchants desiring to sell that&#13;
one bushel of wheat we want at least&#13;
eight of them to go out and raise&#13;
wheat. The world wants now mors&#13;
hard hands, more bronzed cheeks, more&#13;
muscular arms. To the fields! God&#13;
honored them when he woke up the&#13;
shepherds by the midnight anthem,&#13;
and he will while the world lasts continue&#13;
to honor the fields. When Jhe&#13;
shepherd's crook was that famous&#13;
night stood against-the wall of the&#13;
Bethlehem khan, it was a prophecy of&#13;
the time when thrasher's flail and&#13;
farmer's plow and woodman's ax and&#13;
ox's yoke and sheaf binder's rake shall&#13;
surrender to the God who made the&#13;
country as man made the town.&#13;

idea to make it a success and keep&#13;

and 4.. C. Watson being present&#13;
with hla new graphaphone, gave&#13;
several selections which were enjoyed.&#13;
We then listened to an&#13;
instrumental duet by Lulu Marshall&#13;
and Mina Watson and more&#13;
music from the graphaphone.&#13;
The club then adjourned to meet&#13;
the, third Saturday in January for&#13;
their annual banquet and election&#13;

Sad accident at Hartland Friday&#13;
about 1 o'clock. Jesse Parsnail&#13;
drove tip to the mill with a&#13;
grist. He had on top of the bags&#13;
a gun. Geo. Elliot the miller in&#13;
taking it off discharged it, the&#13;
charge struck him in the side killing&#13;
him instantly. Funeral mon*&#13;
day at 1 o'clock.&#13;
Greek and Roman Stovei.&#13;
Warm as Greece and Borne and&#13;
Egypt are, stoves were made there In&#13;
the dim and misty vistas of the past.&#13;
It was not just the pattern used at&#13;
present, but was a metal basin in&#13;
which charcoal was burned. It sat In&#13;
the middle of the room, and as the resulting&#13;
smoke was of the slightest no&#13;
opening in the roof or elsewhere was&#13;
necessary, ^ h e same implement, still&#13;
called by Hs old Greek name of brazier,&#13;
is now employed in many portions&#13;
of continental Europe, where it is utilized&#13;
for heating as well as cooldug.&#13;
But the progressive Romans improved&#13;
on that and made a hypocaust.&#13;
It was the germ of the present furnace.&#13;
It was made under the house in&#13;
a little cellar prepared for it, and the&#13;
heat was conducted to the rooms and&#13;
baths through crevices left in the floor&#13;
and lower portions of the wall. Later&#13;
flues were provided, conducting heat&#13;
to any portion of the house. In some&#13;
of the old Roman villas in England the&#13;
remains of these old time furnaces are&#13;
still found.&#13;
Origin of the Clearing Honne.&#13;
In 1775 the bankers of London rented&#13;
a house in Lombard street and fitted it&#13;
with tables and desks for the use of&#13;
their clerks as a place where bills,&#13;
notes, drafts and other commercial paper&#13;
might be exchanged without the&#13;
trouble of personal visits of employees&#13;
to all the metropolitan banks. Transfer&#13;
tickets were used, and by means of&#13;
this simple plan transactions involving&#13;
many millions were settled without, a&#13;
penny changing hands. The Bank of&#13;
England and every other important&#13;
bank in London are members of the&#13;
Clearing House association. The first&#13;
clearing house in the United States&#13;
was established by the associated&#13;
banks of New York In 1853.&#13;

An Indian Belief.&#13;
There is a belief prevalent in India&#13;
that if a man be Bleeping, no matter&#13;
where, and a Sheth Nag come and sit&#13;
beside htm, with* a hood spread over&#13;
the sleeper's face, the latter is sure to&#13;
be a son of fortune. Popular traditionassigns&#13;
the same reason to the rise of&#13;
rinrfda AJ! of Mysore from a common&#13;
loldter.&#13;
"Mr. Wlngrov* yoo haven't asked&#13;
about Claire. Ifea't you ever speak of&#13;
n e r r&#13;
"Never; on my honor."&#13;
"Ohl"&#13;
"My dear Mrs. Kingston, this !•&#13;
scarcely reasonable. Of course I had&#13;
a great deal of—respect for. your daughter,&#13;
rod «o on, bnt she threw me over&#13;
for that other fellow, and I went to&#13;
the Cape. I tried not only to forget my&#13;
trouble, but to forget her us well. That&#13;
was the only thing to do. W a s n t It?"&#13;
"Did you succeed?"&#13;
No answer.&#13;
"Have you quite forgotten,; Mrr^WTngroveV"&#13;
"Well—of course—that Is—yes 1"&#13;
"Then why have you come to see&#13;
me?'&#13;
"Surely we are old friends. Remember&#13;
how kind you were to me when 1&#13;
was a student at Heidelberg. Your&#13;
house was a home to me at a time&#13;
when I most needed good Influences,&#13;
and when she joined you and I began&#13;
to love her I don't know whether you&#13;
saw how things were going, but you&#13;
were so kind and helpful that my time&#13;
there was the best and happiest I have&#13;
ever known. And then, when It all&#13;
turned out wrong and everything seemed&#13;
going round, your gentle sympathy&#13;
steadied me. and I got through somehow."&#13;
"I was so sorry for you, poor boy!"&#13;
"You have always been good to me,&#13;
and, though goodness knows I'm nothing&#13;
to boast of, if it hadn't been for&#13;
you I don't know where I should have&#13;
landed. A fellow doesn't forget these&#13;
things, Mrs. Kingston, though at the&#13;
time he may not qnite understand&#13;
them."&#13;
"By the way, Mr. Wingrove, do you&#13;
still care for; Claire?"&#13;
"Mrs. Kingston, what a question!"&#13;
"Do you?"&#13;
"Really—but. bang it all—you must&#13;
not ask me t h a t It isn't right—indeed&#13;
it isn't."&#13;
"Don't you know? Didn't they ever&#13;
tell you? She's a widow, Mr. Wingrove."&#13;
"Claire a widow! But how? When?"&#13;
"He died more than a year ago; Influenza—&#13;
quite unexpected. It was so&#13;
sad!"&#13;
"And I have been away all this time&#13;
without knowing a word about It!&#13;
Heavens! I don't care who hears it&#13;
now. 1 may speak. I love her just as&#13;
much as ever, an(L by Jove, she must&#13;
marry me! Claire free"—&#13;
"Hush, Mr. Wingrove. I am very&#13;
sorry 1 spoke about it, but I thought—&#13;
I hoped—you had really forgotten her.&#13;
Oh, why did you come back just at&#13;
this moment? Claire is not free."&#13;
"I—don't—understand."&#13;
"She is going to marry John Mearsdale.&#13;
He was one of your rivals, you&#13;
will remember, and, though 1 don't&#13;
think she ever liked him in the way&#13;
she did you, he pleaded so hard and&#13;
was so devoted that at last she took&#13;
him. You know what an extraordinary&#13;
fascination she has over men. Ever&#13;
since I can remember, even when she&#13;
was the merest schoolgirl, they have&#13;
come round her and liked to look at&#13;
her and hear her talk. There is something&#13;
magnetic about her. I suppose,&#13;
but where she gets it from"—&#13;
"Who knows better than I how hopelessly&#13;
irresistible she is? But never&#13;
mind that now. What I want to kno«7&#13;
is why didn't you or somebody let me&#13;
know what had happened a_nd give me&#13;
another chance. I know she liked me&#13;
better than Mearsdale. She often told&#13;
me so. After ail that there was between&#13;
us, was it fair or kind to leave&#13;
me sticking out there while he had everything&#13;
his own way here?"&#13;
"But. my dear boy, how could we&#13;
write to,you-after that vow you took?"&#13;
"Vow! In heaven's name, what&#13;
vow?"&#13;
"Can you have forgotten?"&#13;

"Mrs. Kingston, you don't mean to&#13;
say that that absurd Jingle prevented&#13;
you from writing to me?"&#13;
"You sigued it, Mr. Wingrove."&#13;
"Signed It! I've signed a thousand&#13;
idiotic things that ought never to be&#13;
made binding on me. Why, 1 was&#13;
about nineteen when I wrote it—a&#13;

when they're in love for the first time,&#13;
which ought to be swept together and&#13;

can't have bolloved It."&#13;
"She did, though, and so did I. You&#13;
were always so earnest in what you&#13;
said and did. I remember her telling&#13;

I stopped off the train and a crowd of&#13;
these gentry began shouting at me I&#13;
limply shook my head and passed on.&#13;
One of them, however, was not to&#13;
be thus easily disposed of. Dancing&#13;
around in front of me so as to block&#13;
my progress, he vociferated:&#13;
" 'Hack, mister? Take you to the&#13;
Washington monument or the capltolT&#13;

"Again I shook my head.&#13;
" 'Smithsonian institution or treasury&#13;

75 cents!'&#13;
"Still I shook my head.&#13;
" 'Arlington and Fort Myer? Drive&#13;
you over and back for $2!'&#13;
"As before I responded with a shake&#13;
of the head.&#13;
" 'Navy yard or Soldiers' home?&#13;
Either place for a dollar.'&#13;
"Another shake of the head.&#13;
" 'Want to go to the White House and&#13;
aee the president? Drive you right&#13;
there for 50 cents!'&#13;
"More head shaking.&#13;
" 'Patent office or state department?&#13;
Same price as the White House!'&#13;
"Another shake. Mind you, all this&#13;
time I hadn't opened my mouth or uttered&#13;
a word, and from the puzzled&#13;
look on the hackman's face 1 thought&#13;
I had him about discouraged. But as&#13;
I shoved past bim. thinking to make&#13;
my escape, his countenance suddenly&#13;
brightened up and I heard him mutter:&#13;
'"By George, I've hit It now! I'll&#13;

running in front of me again, he spelled&#13;

With 194,000 bushels of wheat in&#13;

Thursday at 11:50 a. m. and docked&#13;
at Buffalo Tuesday ,at 2 p , m . . Sh;e&#13;

channels through the rivers.&#13;
For the lighthouse tenders had taken&#13;
in the lightships, spar buoys and gas&#13;
buoys and many of the lighthouses&#13;
were dark and deserted. The Yale is&#13;
close on 400 feet In length, is worth&#13;
spwards of $200,000, and with her car- C represented a total value of almost&#13;
If a million. Her daring dash for&#13;

Picking ice seven inches thick in the&#13;

JiJhuffalo has been from 1% to 2 cents&#13;

cents a bushel—about $8,000—-for the&#13;
cargo, and the temptation could not&#13;
be resisted.&#13;

United Staus Deputy Marsha} Cash&#13;
P. Taylor went to Chelsea Tfcuraday&#13;
to serve papers In bankruptcy on 8tate&#13;
Treasurer Frank, p. Gleaier. The action&#13;
was forced Wednesday afternoon&#13;
by the Detroit creditors, who met and&#13;
appointed Bernard B. Selling, of Detroit,&#13;
attorney of record in the pro*&#13;
ceedings. Involuntary proceedings&#13;
were filed by Mr, Selling in the United&#13;
States district court Thursday' morning.&#13;
The creditors interested include all&#13;
of the Detroit banks *hich hold Qlssier's&#13;
paper.&#13;
This action baa. been expected in&#13;
Chelsea1 ever since the Glasier Stove&#13;
Co. directors met two weeks ago and&#13;
refused to voluntarily ask jtor s receiver.&#13;
The creditors believe that Glasier's.&#13;
affairs are in such a tangle between&#13;
the banks of Detroit and in Stockbridge&#13;
and the stove company that the&#13;
only way his affairs c a n b e straightened&#13;
out is to nave a receiver d o l t&#13;
It is believed that Glasier will light&#13;
the proceedings when he is able.&#13;
Depositors in the Glasier- bank fn&#13;
Stockffridge, which closed when the&#13;
Glasier crash came two weeks ago,&#13;
will not receive over 50 per cent.&#13;
This is apparent in the statement&#13;
filed by Receiver Dancer at Lansing.&#13;
.It shows that the resources of the&#13;
bank amount to $309,045.97, of which&#13;
almost half, $140,ift8.39, is in bills receivable,&#13;
and of this amount Glasier&#13;
was either directly or indirectly responsible&#13;
for $114,000. Glasier personally&#13;
borrowed only $50,000, but tbe&#13;
remainder was borrowed through hie&#13;
manipulations by the members of hl&gt;&#13;
family and close friends.&#13;
Glazier's persons! loan is secured&#13;
by two life insurance policies of $5Qy- a j j - j Q t 000 each. One is straight life and the&#13;
other a 20-year endowment. The first,&#13;
while Mr. Glazier Is alive, is valueless,&#13;
and the other has a cash-vatae^-of&#13;
but $3,250, as it has 17, years to run.&#13;
All of which makes K appesr that the&#13;
depositors of this bank would fate&#13;
no better by the recovery of Mr. Ola*-&#13;
ier.&#13;
The loans, to Glazier's friends and&#13;
family are secured by stove company&#13;
stock, which has a problematical&#13;
value. ,y%&#13;
Therefore on the face,4of katngs tne&#13;
people who are depositors in the bank,&#13;
among whom are practically 9very&#13;
business man and farmer !:• that vicinity,&#13;
cannot expect to secure more than&#13;
half of their money and the greater&#13;
part of this intt for some time, as it&#13;
will be months before the affairs can&#13;
be entirely straightened out.&#13;
Among the assets of the bank is,&#13;
$15,000 deposited in the Chelsea bank,&#13;
and there are also minor accounts&#13;
which are tied up. In closing his statement&#13;
to the depositors Mr. Dancer&#13;
says:&#13;
"This is my very best judgment at&#13;
this a time in regard to all of these&#13;
matters. I have no doubt but that time&#13;
will show that I have been mistaken&#13;
in many particulars** hut I feel that&#13;
you would rather know what I think&#13;
about it now even though my judgment&#13;
may not prove to be correct In&#13;
all the details."&#13;
It is very likely that a dividend of&#13;
10 per cent will be declared at once.&#13;
The statement of Mr. Dancer came&#13;
as a distinct shock to the depositors&#13;
in the village, as it had been confidently&#13;
expected that the bank would pay&#13;
almost dollar for dollar. The news&#13;
has not yet percolated among the farmers&#13;
to any great extent, but those&#13;
who have come into town are angry&#13;
at the way the bank was run.&#13;
"We were rather surprised," said&#13;
Dr. c. Brogan, president of the village,&#13;
"as it was supposed the bank&#13;
was in much better shape/But we&#13;
must make the best of it. It all depends,&#13;
apparently, on how things turn&#13;
out' in Chelsea just what the bank&#13;
win pay."&#13;
"We have tried to be perfectly fair&#13;
in estimating the resources of the&#13;
bsnk," said Mr. Dancer. "Of course,&#13;
things are In such shape that It wiU&#13;
be a long time before just what will&#13;
be realised will h° known. Mach depends&#13;
on the outcome of the recttrei&gt;&#13;
ship of the Chelsea bank.&#13;

CHAPTER XVI,—Continued.&#13;
Row welcome he was, and how all,&#13;
even Amsi, of those winter-bound&#13;
prisoners vied with each other in making&#13;
adm the gueet of honor, need not&#13;
be asserted. He had been a part of&#13;
their life here the previous summer,&#13;
with ail tts Joys and dangers, and now&#13;
seemed one of them.&#13;
When mutual experiences and their&#13;
winter's history had been exchanged,&#13;
of course Chip's rescue, the half*&#13;
bread's escape, and the whereabouts&#13;
her rather came up for discussion&#13;
evening.&#13;
"I've heard from Tim's Place two or&#13;
ree times this winter;" said Levi,&#13;
an' neither Pete nor old McGuire has&#13;
been seen or heard on since early last&#13;
fall. Pete got thar all safe, but vowed&#13;
revajste) on McGuire, as Martin and I&#13;
n we went out. He stayed&#13;
or so, I heard later, and&#13;
for his cabin on the Fox&#13;
since then hain't never been&#13;
or heard of by nobody. Tim an'&#13;
Mike went over to his cabin 'long in&#13;
tha winter, out no signs of him was&#13;
• found, or even of. bis bafn' thar since&#13;
snow came. McGuire also seems to&#13;
hev dropped out o* business and ain't&#13;
been heard on since in tha summer.&#13;
We're expected him all winter at the&#13;
lumber camp, but he didn't show up."&#13;
"We've seen him," put In Old Cy,&#13;
flashing a smile at Ray, "leastwise I&#13;
. callated 'twas him, though I never let&#13;

"Tell Mr. Frlsbte I shall be here,&#13;

word," Levi said; and shaking hands&#13;
with both of his good friends, Ray&#13;
now bade them good-by with many&#13;
thanks for all they had done.&#13;
Of his homeward trip and all the&#13;
charming anticipations now his, no&#13;
mention need be made. They are but&#13;
the flowers wisely strewn in the pathway&#13;
of youth, and Ray—-now more a&#13;
man than when he entered the woods&#13;
•—full well deserved all that lay before&#13;
him.&#13;
But Old Tomah's heart was sad, and&#13;
far away beside a rippled lake was&#13;
another who felt the same.&#13;
CHAPTER XVII.&#13;
Chip's success and popularity in&#13;
Greenvale was practically nullified by&#13;
Hannaji, who from wounded vanity&#13;
and petty jealousy became her enemy&#13;
from tha outset&#13;
Aunt Comfort did not know it. Angle&#13;
was not conscious, of the facta or,&#13;
busy with her own social duties ^ud&#13;
home-making, gave them no thougat.&#13;
And yet, inspired by Hannah's malicious&#13;
tongue, Greene&#13;
poor Chip as one it&#13;
With Angle as si&#13;

And Uncle Joe, with tha wisdom and&#13;
sympathy of old age, discreetly averted&#13;
als face, and said "Oolang" ta his&#13;
horses, aad drove on alone.&#13;
"She's aohody an' an upstart,*&#13;

aaa^sb. failed to make friends about&#13;
tha village, she. woo a place near to&#13;
Aunt Comfort's heart,&#13;
But somehow Aunt Comfort, who&#13;
loved everybody alike, good or bad, or&#13;
at least spoke no ill of the bad ones,&#13;
didn't count That aha must inevitably&#13;
take Chip under bar motherly&#13;
wing, all recognised. jShe had taken&#13;
Hannah, then Angle and Nezer, and&#13;
now this waif who, as Hannah insisted,&#13;
was all Had; and according to&#13;
Greenvale's belief, Aunt Comfort&#13;
would keep on "taking In' homeless&#13;
waifs aad outcast mortals as long as&#13;
she lived, or house room held out. And&#13;
it was true.&#13;
By midwinter Martin's new house&#13;
was all furnished, and social obligations&#13;
began to interest Angle, which&#13;
made matters all the worse for Chip,&#13;
for now Hannah could persecute her&#13;
with lese danger of- exposure.&#13;
But Chip was hard to persecute.&#13;
She hdd known adversity in its worst&#13;
form. Her life at Tim's place had&#13;
been practical-slavery, and the worst&#13;
that Hannah could do waa as pin&#13;
pricks compared to it. [&#13;
It is certain, also, if Chip had&#13;
"spunked up," as Hannah would call&#13;
ft, now and then, it would have been&#13;
better for her; but it wasn't Chip's&#13;
way. To work and suffer in silence&#13;
had been her lot at Tim's Place. Angle&#13;
had said, "You must obey everybody&#13;
and make friends," and impelled by&#13;
experience, and this somewhat broad&#13;
order, Chip was doing her best.&#13;
One hope cheered her all that long,&#13;
hard winter of monotonous study—the&#13;
return of Ray, and possibly Old Cy,&#13;
when summer came.' Somehow these&#13;
two had knit themselves into her life&#13;
as no one else had or could. Then she&#13;
wondered how Ray would seem to and&#13;
feel toward her a hen he came, and If&#13;
the little bond—a wondrous strong&#13;
one, as far as her feelings went—&#13;
would still call him to her side.&#13;
It had all been a beacon of hope to&#13;
her in the uphill road toward the temple&#13;
of learning; and how haed aha had&#13;
studied, and how" patiently she bad&#13;
tried to correct her own speech, not&#13;
even her teacher guessed.&#13;
It is also possible, In fact almost certain,&#13;
that that unfortunate waif's somewhat&#13;
pitiful tale had won her teacher's&#13;
interest and affection as naught&#13;
else could. Only one reservation was&#13;
made by Chip—her own feelings toward&#13;
Ray. All else became an open&#13;
book to Miss Phlnney. .&#13;
When school was out, the two walked&#13;
homeward together as far as their&#13;
ways permitted, and then Chip obtained&#13;
the one hour of the day which&#13;
she felt was quite her own. At first,&#13;
during the autumn days, she had used&#13;
it for a scamper through the nutbrown&#13;
woods. When winter came and&#13;
it was not too cold, she occasionally&#13;
visited the mill pond above the village,&#13;
where, if the conditions were right all&#13;
the skating and sliding youth were&#13;
gathered; and when blessed spring returned,&#13;
it was away to the hills and&#13;
fields once more.&#13;
On Saturdays she seldom left the&#13;
house, unless sent on an errand, and&#13;
Sunday became a day o( penance.&#13;
And now, when the flowers and&#13;
birds had once more returned to Greenvale,&#13;
and Ray might return any day, a&#13;
little plan that Chip had had in mind&#13;
for many weeks took shape. She&#13;
knew Ray must come on the stage,&#13;
and eager for a sight of his face as&#13;
only love can make one, she meant ta&#13;
be the first to meet and greet him.&#13;
A mile down the village street and&#13;
beyond the last houaavaas a sharp&#13;
hilltop. The Rtasja « H | ^ b a r .&#13;

CHAPTER XVIH.&#13;
During all the long weeks while&#13;
Chip had awaited her lover's coming,&#13;
one hope had been hers—that bis return&#13;
would end all her loneliness and&#13;
begin a season of tha happy, care-free&#13;
days like those by the lake once more,&#13;
Por the first few moments after U«&#13;
kissed her upraised lips, she could not&#13;
speak for very joy; and then, aa hand&#13;
ia hand they started toward the village,&#13;
her speech came.&#13;
"I've been so lonesome," she said&#13;
simply, "I've counted tha days, and&#13;
come down here to meet you dairy, for&#13;
over a month. I don't like it here, and&#13;
nobody likes me, I guess. Pm so glad'&#13;
you've come, though. Now I shan't be.&#13;
lonesome no more. I've studied hard*,&#13;
too," she added, with an accent of&#13;
pride. "1 can read and spall words of&#13;
six syllables. I've ciphered up to decimal&#13;
fractions, an' begun grammar.&#13;
"I'm glad to get home, too," an/fr&#13;
swered Ray, as simply. "It waa lonesome&#13;
In the woods all winter, when&#13;
we couldn't tend the trans. But I've&#13;
made a lot of money—'most five hundred&#13;
dollars—all mine, too. How is&#13;
everybody?" And so they dropped&#13;
from sentiment into commonplace.&#13;
At the tavern he secured his belongings.&#13;
At the corner where their ways&#13;
parted, he bade Chip a light good-by,&#13;
and with an "I'll see you Boon," left&#13;
her.&#13;
Her hero had arrived. They had&#13;
met, kissed as lovers should, and the&#13;
lonely waiting and watching days were&#13;
at an end and a new life was to begin&#13;
for Chip.&#13;
Little did she realize what It would&#13;
mean for her, or how utterly her hopes&#13;
were to fail.&#13;

a word to Aunt Comfort or Hannah&#13;
as to whom she expected, she arrayed&#13;
herself in her one best dress&#13;
and awaited his expected visit.&#13;
And what a propitious and all-favoring&#13;
evening it was! The June night&#13;
was balmy. Blooming lilacs and syringat&#13;
half hid, as well as adorned, the&#13;
porch of Aunt Comfort's home. Aunt&#13;
Comfort had just departed to make a&#13;
call, Hannah was away at prayer&#13;
meeting, and "no one nigh to hinder."&#13;
But Chip waited in vain!&#13;
At school hextfday her mind and&#13;
heart were at war. The parts of&#13;
speech and rules of subtraction and&#13;
division seemed complete chaos, and&#13;
when homeward bound, she loitered&#13;
slowly along, hoping Ray would make&#13;
amends and meat her on the way. But&#13;
again he failed to appear&#13;
And that night, wham aloae with&#13;
Hannah, a worse heow .oajgjd. v&#13;
"I heerd young fltftMB apt hack&#13;
yesterday," she said, txxag ear sssmly&#13;
blue eyes on Chip, "an' ye* tree* txexast&#13;
the road to meet him. I sfcaaM wspik&#13;
you'd be 'shamed o' yourself. J^^pu're&#13;
callatin' on settin' your cap for him,&#13;
'twon't do a mile o* good. His aunt&#13;
wouldn't think o' bavin' such ah outcast&#13;
ez you for him—that I can tell ye."&#13;
But not a word of reply came from&#13;
poor Chip. Such speeches were not&#13;
new to her, and she had long before&#13;
ceased to answer them. But this one,&#13;
from its very truth, hurt more than&#13;
all others had, and, crushed by it, she&#13;
stole away out of the house.&#13;
No thought that Ray might call came&#13;
to her. She only wished to escape&#13;
somewhere, that she might cry away&#13;
her misery and shame In solitude.&#13;
The evening was but a repetition of&#13;
the previous one. The same sweet influenoa&#13;

Carlyle'a Recipe'For 3hirte.&#13;
Here is an extract from a fetter of&#13;
Thomas Carlyle, in which ho asks his&#13;
sister to make him .«erue shirts and&#13;
sends the measurements. How many&#13;
wemen could make a shirt after them?&#13;
"My Dear Jenny—* * * In the meanwhile&#13;
I want you to make me some&#13;
flannel tilings, too—three flannel shirts&#13;
especially. You cnrT got the flannel&#13;
from^AIick if he has any that he can&#13;
well recommend. You can readily have&#13;
them made before the other shirts go&#13;
off. I have taken the measure today&#13;
and now send you the dimensions, together&#13;
with a measuring strap which I&#13;
bought some weeks ago (at one penny)&#13;
for the purpose? You are to be careful&#13;
to scour the flannel first, after&#13;
which process the' dimensions are&#13;
these: Width (when the shirt is laid&#13;
on its back), 22½ Inches; extent from&#13;
wrist button to wrist button, 61 inches;&#13;
length in the back, 35 inches; length in&#13;
the front, 25½ inches. Do you understand&#13;
all that? I dare say you will&#13;
make it out, and this measuring band&#13;
will enable you to be exact enough."&#13;
promise faithfully&#13;
he would not allude in his sermon to&#13;
himself, ids bride or the fact of the&#13;
marriage. So he promised that in his&#13;
sermon he would make no allusion of&#13;
that kind whatever, but Mr. Caw nearly&#13;
sank through the floor when the&#13;
text was given out-Ephesiaus ill, 8.&#13;

Seated reading in hi6 private room&#13;
the superintendent of a large prison '&#13;
beard a slight sound and, looking up,&#13;
was confronted by a dangerous convict&#13;
holding a long bar of iron. "DonU&#13;
you move." ho muttered. "I'm going to&#13;
get a way, even if I have to kill you!"&#13;
"But," calmly rejoined the superintendent,&#13;
"I thought it was tomorrow you&#13;
were going." The man looked at him&#13;
with stupid amazement. "Yes," said&#13;
the official, "don't you know? A par&#13;
don came for you today in consideration&#13;
of your good conduct. You can&#13;
go now, I suppose, if you want to.&#13;
You'd like to see the papers. They're&#13;
in here, 1 believe." He opened a drawer&#13;
as he spoke, and the next instant&#13;
the convict was facing the muzzle of a&#13;
revolver.&#13;
Made It Clear.&#13;

reeWsaly high. When Frances veuturnd-&#13;
to remonstrate they were insolent.&#13;
The load was packed at last The&#13;
crowning piece was the beautiful old&#13;
inlaid secretary that had been the&#13;
pride of Miss Deborah's library. As&#13;
the horses moved under whip and&#13;
oath, the wagon started, making a toosharp&#13;
turn into the road from its&#13;
packed*up position opposite the front&#13;
gate, the secretary trembled on its&#13;
unsteady perch—tottered—fell — and&#13;
crashed in pieces on the sidewalk.&#13;
To Frances, overwrought as she was&#13;
in mind and body* the accident seemed&#13;
the jtat stttssn ef fate. She sat&#13;
down among; the rein* and cried, with&#13;
her apfcsj to fear eyes, careless who&#13;
miatot see her "&#13;
Dtjfc HtsiBUs saw her afar as he&#13;
MaymjBa l i e quiet, elm-shaded street,&#13;
dsat^erirlved on a run in his anxiety.&#13;
"My dearest girl! what are you doing?"&#13;
he cried. "Are you hurt? or&#13;
what has happened?"&#13;
Her pink cambric sweeping-cap was&#13;
wildly askew on her roughened dark&#13;
hair, and her small, flushed face was&#13;
wet wit£ tears and smeared with&#13;
marks from her dusty apron; but she&#13;
waB absurdly pretty in spite of all,&#13;
with her great, dark eyeB moist and&#13;
shtning, and her soft childish mouth&#13;
trying to keep from quivering.&#13;
"Don't be alarmed, Dick," she said.&#13;
"I'm not hurt In the least, but my&#13;
Grand-aunt Deborah's* writing-desk has&#13;
had an accident, and is a noble wreck&#13;

She* accepted them rather c&#13;

"I, Deborah Danforth, do make&#13;
publish this my last will and U&#13;

be—it can't be—it is another will&#13;
hers, and in my father's favor? A&#13;
is it dated .after the one that dii&#13;
herlted him!"&#13;
The Danforths melted once more before&#13;
that spring had deepened into&#13;
summer. Zebedee Smith was an honest&#13;
man, if a hard one, and the newfound&#13;
will was unimpeachable.&#13;
He did not attempt to resist it, and&#13;
Mr. Danforth was liberal to him in&#13;
taking back his own. And the Danforths&#13;
moved into Miss Deborah's&#13;
stately old stone house in time to&#13;
have Frances married from there.&#13;

England's Rural Depopulation.&#13;
Among the causes of rural depopulation&#13;
in England are the attractions of&#13;
cities, the conversion of arable land&#13;
Into pasture, the consolidation of&#13;
farms, the use of labor-saving machinery,&#13;
the low, average wage of $3.50 a&#13;
week, the craze to get rich quick, the&#13;
spirit of the age and its restless desire&#13;
for amusement&#13;
Was Saved the Trouble.&#13;
"So you are married?"&#13;
"Why not me?"&#13;
"You used to say you would never&#13;
be able to propose to a woman."&#13;

l*or the stung plaintiff, who was not&#13;
satisfied with a hoarding which the&#13;
beeheeper has provldeetly set up, but&#13;
claimed an interim Injunction to restrain&#13;
the keeping of bees altogether,&#13;
BO near his property.&#13;
"In" ttie course o^the-«rgument the&#13;
theory was broached on behalf of the&#13;
beekeeper that a bee Is entitled to his&#13;
first sting; but this Is erroneous. A&#13;
bee is ferae naturae, not mansuetae&#13;
naturae, like a dog, and must be kepi&#13;
—as a tiger—at the keeper's peril."&#13;
That is to say, -that a bee is of the nature&#13;
of a wild beast, not a tame one.&#13;

A barber who wields the paint brush&#13;

for himself- as an artist. He&#13;

pencils and canvases hobnob with&#13;
raaora -and shaving cups.&#13;
This barber, Patrick Cronin, is not&#13;
a mere dabbler In paints, but is a&#13;
genuine lover of art, and says: "if 'i&#13;
only had a private fortune I would devote&#13;
my entire life to painting. But&#13;
I have my own living to make and&#13;
cannot follow anything so precarious&#13;
as art" Most of his paintings are&#13;
studies, and he makes no claim that&#13;
they are taished pieces. Some of&#13;
them have been placed In the homes&#13;
of several Springfield . pdopte. His&#13;
best landscape is In the possession of&#13;

a reflection that came to me recently&#13;
upon the conclusion o{ jny remarks to&#13;
a colored congregation In Richmond.&#13;
"I had invited an/'egeid deacon to&#13;
offer prayer. 'Oh, lord/ prayed he,&#13;

eagle, dat he spy out etn afar off.&#13;
Glue his hands to de'gospe] plow. Tie&#13;
his tongue to de line* of truf. Nail his&#13;
yere to de gospel pole. Bow his head&#13;
'way down between his knees, oh&#13;
Lord, an' fix his knees 'way down in&#13;
some lonesome, dark and narrer valley,&#13;
where prayer is much wanted to&#13;
be made. 'Nolnt bim wif de keroseneile&#13;

:xO- &lt; A Story ChrUtmw and a Happy New Year&#13;
Fins Mist Hepter&#13;
At eontj Ciirt't OfflM&#13;
Here's a mixup. Over at Howell,&#13;
two oases bave been decided&#13;
in justice court which have caused&#13;
merchants to scratch gravel for&#13;
county clerk's office to get registered.&#13;
A firm at Oak Grove&#13;
sought to collect a bill against a&#13;
customer. The prosecution proceeded&#13;
to tell its sad, sad story&#13;
when the attorney for the defense&#13;
jumpee} up and sprang a&#13;
surprise. Says he, sarcastically,&#13;
"This firm has not complied, with&#13;
the law and filed a list of its&#13;
members with their respective&#13;
interests with the county clerk."&#13;
f$l)e judge scratched his head,&#13;
looked wise, and says, "Old boy,&#13;
yon're right, you've got 'em&#13;
skiined," and threw the case&#13;
over the transom mnd took a&#13;
fresh chew of tobacco. A case&#13;
from Howell met the same fate.&#13;
Listen to this! The fileB ID the&#13;
county clerk's office shows that&#13;
only comparatively few firms&#13;
have made their filing and are&#13;
protected with any right in court.&#13;
This is serious, because the&#13;
same law includes a fiue of not,&#13;
less than 125 nor more than DlOO&#13;
against each member of a firm&#13;
doing bnsints* io Michigan,&#13;
which does not file as provided by&#13;
this act.—Are there any firms in&#13;
Pinckney not in the fold? Get&#13;
busy.&#13;
A Merry Christmas and a&#13;
Happy New Year to AH&#13;

zone. The rates therefore are fixed&#13;
from the unit in which the postofSce&#13;
to located, opt they are the same&#13;
from that office to any point in any&#13;
one zone.&#13;
It will be seen by reference to the&#13;
table of rates of postage that it will&#13;
cost more per pound to send a package&#13;
a long distance than it doea to&#13;
send It a short distance. The* rate increases&#13;
for a package weighing one&#13;
pound at the rate of one cent1 for&#13;
each zone. No package weighing&#13;
more than 11 pounds can be sent under&#13;
the new parcel post law. it&#13;
should be said right here that on the&#13;
long hauls the parcel post may not&#13;
be able to compete with the express&#13;
companies, but that on shorter hauls&#13;
It can so compete. It was the expressed&#13;
desire of the legislators and&#13;
of the postofBce officials that the parcel&#13;
post system should be made of&#13;
particular use' to persons having farm&#13;
and factory products to transmit to&#13;
customers. It is probable that producers&#13;
must study the rates of postage&#13;
and the convenience of trjSntrulttal&#13;
and. compare them wtth the&#13;
cost and convenience under present&#13;
methods before individually a manftfean&#13;
determine whether he is to profit or&#13;
not by the change. Then there is another&#13;
thing to be considered and&#13;
which only can be known definitely&#13;
when, fuller regulations have been&#13;
made to specify exactly what kind of&#13;
things can be sent by parcel post. It&#13;
can be satd in a general way that anything&#13;
catr hw sent which is properly&#13;
wrapped and'which wVU not Injure&#13;
other mall matter with^which it may&#13;
come in contact. &gt;i * ' - V&#13;
Copy foreign Ceuntrlea. '&#13;
It Is probable that ihe government&#13;
will adopt a .means of. transportation&#13;
tot certain, ||n.ds.,Qf its merchandise&#13;
much like those which have been&#13;
adopted In parcel post countries&#13;
abroad.' What the English call hambasket-&#13;
like arrangements, proby&#13;
will be adopted, and ae these can&#13;
be, kept separate from the ordinary&#13;
mail matter it is believed that the&#13;
regulatlfnay-as finally adopted will allow&#13;
the sending of eggs, butter, dressed&#13;
poultry, live poultry, honey, fruit,&#13;
s,nd otheY prtduots of the country.&#13;
The ll-nott$d limit for a single package&#13;
may wotk at first agalnat any&#13;
very oextende4_ use of the parcel post&#13;
for some of the articles which have&#13;
been named.4 Of course, more weight&#13;
can be sent if 1t is sent In different&#13;
parcels, but the cost in that case&#13;
would be heavier because the t&amp;-&#13;
trease per pound on a single package&#13;
ta not great up to 11 pounds,, and&#13;
probably It would increase at no greater&#13;
rate If the government were to&#13;
raise the limit of weight which is now&#13;
fixed To make It simpler, it wilt&#13;
l o s t more to send two packages of 11&#13;
pounds than, tt ' would. ^ 1 send one&#13;
package of 22 pounds if the government&#13;
eventually should allow a hapvi&#13;
er single package to be carried and&#13;
should charge. In proportion Just what&#13;
it does now for one package of 11&#13;
pounds weight&#13;
Every postmaster in the United&#13;
States will have a parcel post map&#13;
like the one which is here reproduced&#13;
except that the zone lines, will be&#13;
shown with the unit of his poatoflce&#13;
as a center. AH that a postmaster&#13;
will have to do when a pareel ia presented&#13;
for transportation is to Bad&#13;
out in what tone the destination^ of&#13;

the price as Las been explained&#13;
before, to every postofflce in any one&#13;
zone being the same. The parcel post&#13;
will take nothing but fourth-class mat&#13;
ter. Printed matter is still In the&#13;
third-class designation. Therefore&#13;
books cannot be sent by the parcel&#13;
post system. This the postofflce authorities&#13;
seem to think is in a way&#13;
unjust and may work a hardship. It&#13;
may be that in the future the law will&#13;
be changed so as to Include all printed&#13;
matter. It seems to be certain that&#13;
an attempt will be made to bring&#13;
about this change as speedily as possible.&#13;
Postmaster Qeneral Hitchcock has&#13;
ordered that postmasters be advised&#13;
that parcel post packages cannot be&#13;
accepted for mailing unless they beaj&#13;
a distinctive parcel post stamp and&#13;
have attached to them the return card&#13;
of the sender. A series of distinctive&#13;
stamps is now in course of preparation&#13;
for this class of mall as required&#13;
by the law creating the parcel post&#13;
system. Consignments of these&#13;
stamps will be ready for shipment to&#13;
all postofflcea in asaple time tor the&#13;
establishment of the new system oh&#13;
New Tear's day.&#13;
The poetofflce department has given&#13;
Instruction to every postmaster in the&#13;
country to enlighten his patrons as&#13;
much as possible on the general subject&#13;
of the parcel post and especially&#13;
on the use of the special stamps and&#13;
the necessary attachment of the return&#13;
card. The law requires that all&#13;
fourth-class matter mailed a'ier January''&#13;
1, Mt, without parcelr powt&#13;
stamps attached shall be treated at&#13;
"Held for postage" matter. Parcel&#13;
poBt packages will be mailable only&#13;
at poatofflceB, branch postofflcea, lettered&#13;
and local named stations, and&#13;
such numbered stations as may be&#13;
designated by the postmasters.&#13;
Rate on Seeds Not Affected.&#13;
U should be said that the act of&#13;
congress whloh putB a parcel post plan&#13;
into operation does not In any way&#13;
affect the postage rate on seeds, cuttings,&#13;
bulbs, roots, scions and plants&#13;
as fixed by section 482 of the postal&#13;
laws and regulations.&#13;
The classification of articles mallable&#13;
as well as the weight limit, the&#13;
rates of postage, zone or zones and&#13;
other conditions of mallabllity under&#13;
the act of congress, if the postmaster&#13;
general ahall find on experience "that&#13;
they or a n y of them are such as to&#13;
prevent the shipment of articles desirable,&#13;
or ahall permanently render&#13;
the coat of the service greater than&#13;
Che receipts of the revenue therefrom,&#13;
he la hereby authorized, subject to the&#13;
consent of the Interstate commerce&#13;
commission after Investigation, to reform&#13;
from time to time such classification,&#13;

the aervice to the public or to&#13;
Insure the receipt of revenue from,&#13;

thereof.''&#13;
Through many yeara different mem*&#13;
hers of the house and senate have&#13;
been interested In prompting parcel&#13;
post legislation. Among the men most&#13;
active in securing the legislation&#13;
which soon Is to go Into effect as&#13;
law are Senator Jonathan Bourne of&#13;
Oregon, Representatives Davrd J.&#13;
Lewis of Maryland and William Gutter&#13;
of New York, who has just bean&#13;

Paris has decreed that once again&#13;

carried out in chiffon or muslin Telvet,&#13;
or at very thickest crepe de Chine&#13;
or almost gauzy satin. Except in the&#13;
severest weather there Is something&#13;
to be said for these dresses, when&#13;

magnificent furs, A long fur coat is&#13;
far too warm to be healthy, if worn&#13;
over a thick* dress, except on very exceptional&#13;

eueh a mode as that of the thin winter&#13;

trimmed, with fur. Pur and old lace&#13;
o»mhi&amp;ed. are a very fashionable trimming&#13;
at the moment,, although; a famous&#13;
French, dressmaker has denounced&#13;
the mixture as In bad taste,&#13;
and being; bad art.&#13;
For the evenings, of course, thin&#13;
gowns-have it all their own way. Bven&#13;
brocades have now been brought to&#13;
seek, a degree of lightness and cuppleKess&#13;
that they are practically like&#13;
gauze. Indoor gowns are still being&#13;
trimmed with pink or pale ground&#13;
cameos, and they were also seen on&#13;
hats a*4 coats, so those who possess&#13;
these fine ornaments can still wear&#13;
them In this very effective manner.&#13;
SMART CRAVATS AND STOCKS&#13;
Old Fashion, WMch Has Much to Recommend&#13;
It, Will Be Welcomed&#13;
Back to Favor.&#13;
One rejoices to see that again w«&#13;
_Are_ io_ wear -cravats and stocks of&#13;
folded black silk and satin, with small&#13;
turned-down stock collars of white&#13;
lawn showing narrow^ at the top.&#13;
Severe as it is, this t i t h e moat becoming&#13;
form Of neckwear possible, and&#13;
if the lawn 'turnover is not starched&#13;
(but the laundress will stiffen it if&#13;
she gem the chance) the severity is&#13;
by DO means too great. The finishing&#13;
toadies of the cravat, too/help to remove&#13;
the touch of sternness. Neat&#13;
and small the bow may be—but with&#13;
what pointed ends, and with how&#13;
much daah In its crisp lines! A very&#13;
smart' notion is'to Thave the boV?at&#13;
the base of the throat made of "narrow&#13;
ribbon, three-quarters of an inch&#13;
wide. This enables the bow to hare&#13;
the requisite spring In l u lines, and&#13;
also to be small, where ribbon of the&#13;

is altogether too" flowing For theT little&#13;

The Matters qf Legislation That Art&#13;
of Special Intsreat to the Taxpayers&#13;
Briefly Referred To.&#13;
' 'is—-&#13;
[By Gurd M. Hayes.]&#13;
If the wishes of Governor-elect Ferris&#13;
are respected, and there is every&#13;
reason to believe that they will be, the&#13;
inauguration of the first democratic&#13;
governor elected in Michigan In more&#13;
than two decades will be entirely devoid&#13;
of ostentation or unnecessary display.&#13;
In keeping with the quiet, dignified&#13;
personality of the man who is to&#13;
preside over; the destinies of ths&gt;&#13;
Wolverine state for the nefcti two years,&#13;
Woodbridge N. Ferris will be ushered&#13;
into the executive chair without the&#13;
blare of trumpets or the flashing of&#13;
gold lace.&#13;
Plans for the inauguration have been&#13;
perpared by Edmund II. ShleldB,&#13;
chairman of the democratic State central&#13;
committee, at the request of the&#13;
governor-elect. Major itoy &lt;;. Vander-&#13;
.cock, commander of the flret battalion&#13;
of field artillery, and adjutant general&#13;
of the Michigan,National Guard, haa&#13;
been commissioned to extend an invitation&#13;
to the state officials and justices&#13;
of the supreme court to participate&#13;
iff he evens of he day.&#13;
As the clock tolls the'hoh'rof twelve&#13;
at noon on the first day of January&#13;
Governor-elect Ferris and the other&#13;
state officials will stand on the front&#13;
porch of the capitol building and re*&#13;
oelve the oath of office which will be&#13;
administered by Chief Justice Joseph&#13;
B. Moore of the supreme court. As&#13;
soon as the gray-haired jurist pronoupces&#13;
the words that will bind&#13;
Woodbridge N. Ferris to the people of&#13;
Michigan, the governor's salute of 17&#13;
guns will, be fired by the artillery. If&#13;
weather conditions prevent the holding&#13;
of this ceremony on. the. capitol&#13;
steps, the officers will receive the oath&#13;
of office in the senate -chamber.&#13;
In view of the fact that this is the&#13;
first time in more than twenty years&#13;
that a democratic governor is to be&#13;
inducted into office democrats from&#13;
far and wide In the state are planning&#13;
to come here for the inauguration and&#13;
special attention is to be paid to these&#13;
visitors. Patriot democrats have announced&#13;
that they are coming out in&#13;
two special trains.&#13;
After he has received the oath of of-&#13;
Oce Gov. Ferris will hold a reception&#13;
for half an hour to state officers and&#13;
members of the legislature, andthe has&#13;
extended an invitation to Gov. Osborn&#13;
to assist him. After the legislators and&#13;
state offiolala have passed through the&#13;
receiving line the ezcutive parlors will&#13;
be thrown open to the general public,&#13;
this reception being particularly for&#13;
the out of town people who will not&#13;
remain over night. In this feature an&#13;
entirely new custom is established,&#13;
previous governors not haying' invited&#13;
their predecessors of a different political&#13;
party to share wiih them in the&#13;
events of the day.&#13;
In the evening (fr$m 8 o'clock. Gov.&#13;
and Mr*, Ferris, thelf son, Carlton and.&#13;
wife, their son, Phelp's, the justices&#13;
of the supreme court, the state offloers&#13;
aad their wives, will hold a re*&#13;
caption in the excutive parlor. At both&#13;
receptions the First Battalion Field&#13;
Artillery, In full dress uniform, will&#13;
furnish the ushers and have control&#13;
of the crowd, while the artillery battalion&#13;
band will render a concert fn&#13;
the routunda of the capitol.&#13;
The Oil inspector.&#13;
Governor-elect Ferris-1s In favor of&#13;
abolishing two jobs that Governor OSborn,&#13;
looked upon with disfavor when&#13;
he came into office two years a g o -&#13;
state oil inspector anil state salt inspector.&#13;
The legilatiire refused to heed&#13;
the request of, Osborn that these two&#13;
departments be abollahfid* and it is extremely&#13;
doubtful whether the next&#13;
chief executive wil lbe able to aoconv&#13;
plish much along thialtee.&#13;
The democratic governor-elect says&#13;
that hit message will be brief and to&#13;
the point. If this Is true, it will be&#13;
somewhat of an Innovation, as it hat&#13;
required some governor* fn recent&#13;
years nearly an hour tov read their in*&#13;
augural at the first joint sesslon'of the&#13;
two housei. .^ ,,.&#13;

When the special sessions wer«&#13;
called the republican candidates for&#13;
the speakership continued their casnpalgn&#13;
(or pledges, but many of the&#13;
members of the lower house who promised&#13;
to vote for Smith were defeated&#13;
In the election this fall, and a careful&#13;
canvass discloses the fact that Cujrle&#13;
will have at least 32 of the &amp;2 republican&#13;
votes at the caucaa the night&#13;
before, the contest is officially decided.&#13;
The progressives wil lhave a candidate&#13;
for the speakership in Rep. Mo*&#13;
BrAde, of Burton, Shiawassee county,&#13;
while Rep. GlaasneiS of Barry county,&#13;
and Rep. Farmer,'',of Liinvtngston&#13;
county wHl aspire to'the nomination&#13;
in the democratic caucaa There has&#13;
been some talk to the effect that the&#13;
democrats and progressives will align&#13;
themselves with the disgruntled republicans&#13;
In an effort to control the house&#13;
and elect a speaker, but little credence&#13;
is given to this in Btate political circles.&#13;
Whoever the speaker of the next&#13;
house may be, he will be able, if he&#13;
sprinkles his committee appointments&#13;
judiciously, to became a powerful factor&#13;
in the politics of Michigan. Some&#13;
of tl»e most important propositions&#13;
that have been considered in years&#13;
will be up to the 1913 legislature, and&#13;
as usual, the committees will be the&#13;
big factors in determining the fate of&#13;
some of the proposed measures.&#13;
Congressional Districts.&#13;
Under the provisions of the new constitution&#13;
adopted in 1908, it la required&#13;
that the legislature of 1913 shall reapportion&#13;
the congressional, senatorial&#13;
and legislative distracts of the state.&#13;
Therefore, if Is expected that there&#13;
will be a general scramble among the&#13;
mtmbersof the house to secure the appointment&#13;
as chairman of the committee&#13;
on apportionment. The present&#13;
congressmen will naturally want the&#13;
congressional districts arranged to&#13;
their best advantage, while the members&#13;
of the house who have ambitions&#13;
to become state eenatorsr will -endear*&#13;
or to have the senatorial districts&#13;
blocked out to suit their convenience.&#13;
When the last United tSates census&#13;
was completed, It was found that Michigan's&#13;
Increased population entitled&#13;
this state'to one additional congressman.&#13;
This condition was met by providing&#13;
a congressman to be elected&#13;
from the state at large and Patrick&#13;
H. Kelley, former lieutenant governor,&#13;
i$g chosen as the thirteenth congressman&#13;
at the recent election.&#13;
All indications point to some \lvely&#13;
wire pulling and intricate maneuvering&#13;
when the proposition of redisricting&#13;
the state comes up for consideration&#13;
at the next session. Because of its&#13;
population the city of Detroit will ask&#13;
that It be allotted two congressmen.&#13;
At the present time Wayne county Is&#13;
split Into three different congressional&#13;
districts,&#13;
It will be impossible to add to the&#13;
number of state senators or representatives&#13;
as the constitution provides&#13;
that there shall not be more than 82&#13;
senators or more than 100 representatives.&#13;
No changes have been made in&#13;
the congressional districts In more&#13;
than twenty years and the attempt&#13;
of the lawmakers to make a revision&#13;
is sure to bring on one of the warm*&#13;
est battles of the session.&#13;
Taxation of Mortgages.&#13;
Members of the Btatd grange, the&#13;
farmers' clubs, and many legislators&#13;
stand in favor of repealing the mortgage&#13;
fax law passed at the last regular&#13;
session two years ago, as it Is&#13;
pointed put that the act. has not fulfilled&#13;
the expectations, of those who&#13;
framed it and that it is generally unsatisfactory.&#13;
Use of &gt;uto License Monty.&#13;
Another Important proposition that&#13;
the legislature wRi be asked to consider,&#13;
will be a law authorizing the&#13;
use of money reecived from the sale&#13;
of automobile licenses, fp rthe construction&#13;
of good roads,. Secretary of&#13;
State Frederick ¢. M&amp;rtlndale used&#13;
this as. one of the planks la his platform&#13;
when he was a candidate for the&#13;
renublloan nomination for governor,&#13;
and he tayt that he will exert hit&#13;
Influence to have such a law passed&#13;
next year.&#13;
Automobllists are enthusiastic over&#13;
this proposition aa they feel that inasmuch&#13;
as, they are taxed for driving&#13;
their motor cars oycr^the public high*&#13;
Ways, that this money should "be used&#13;
in the 'construction of better roadt,Ifiteead&#13;
of tttrntng the fees received&#13;
from the sale; of Mcenses, into, the general&#13;
fund of the state treasury.&#13;
,U is expected that there will be at&#13;
ileaet 60.000 licensed automobiles and&#13;
motorcycles in Michigan next yaat&#13;
and as each machine adds f8 to tin&#13;
reHaiM of the state, such a change&#13;
la die law.would add mora than 1150.-&#13;
•000 annually to the good roads fond.&#13;

Last Thursday evening about&#13;
dark, loud appeals for assistance&#13;
from a man apparently in deep&#13;
distress startled the citizens of&#13;
this village. The sounds appeared&#13;

^ the cemetery across the pond&#13;
. tod after considerable surmising&#13;
as to the origin of the sounds a&#13;
number of young men started out&#13;
* to Investigate the disturbance.&#13;
, Entering the place they found&#13;
Ohas. Carrol who appeared to be&#13;

Weren't you surprised to receive my&#13;
card postmarked Switzerland? This&#13;
has been rightly designated the "playground&#13;
of Europe." I have had such1&#13;
a perfect time and dislike to think&#13;
that but one more week remains to&#13;
enjoy the scenery.&#13;
I have actually climbed five giant&#13;
mountains of the Alps. Aren't you&#13;
envious? Our party arrived at Lucerne&#13;
during the late afternoon, and&#13;
when I viewed those majestic mountains,&#13;
hedged about with mystery—&#13;
the glaciers filling the neighboring&#13;
valleys—the snowpeaks, whose white&#13;
outline against the sky was cameolike&#13;
in J u clearness, I longed to&#13;
reach their summits. Jack and a few&#13;
others voiced the same desire, and&#13;
our consuming ambition became to&#13;
add notches to our alpenstocks.&#13;
Early next morning we ascended&#13;
Rlgi to see the sun rise. What an.&#13;
inspiring sight! Far below flowed&#13;
the River Reuse, and there was Lu-,&#13;
cerne surrounded with its wails and&#13;
nine toll houses, resembling a "fairy&#13;
city" held in the fastness of the mountains&#13;
by some powerful enchanter.&#13;
The pink-gold light of dawn heralding&#13;
the approach of day touched&#13;
; each tip of the towers, then spread&#13;
• over the flowery fields of the valley.&#13;
| This seemed strange when we were&#13;
] surrounded by snow fields.&#13;
! The following week we went to&#13;
Lake Brleng and crossed to inter-&#13;
{ laken. Here the incomparable Jung-&#13;
I frau loomed invitingly in the distance.&#13;
i The mountain would not come to us,&#13;
' so, like Mohammed, we went to the&#13;
mountain. At Lauterbrunnen village&#13;
i ire took the cable oars, which lifted&#13;
us 2,200 feet to the famous little alpine&#13;
village, ef Murren.&#13;
Here we had a wonderful view of&#13;
j Jnngfrau. This maiden of the Alps&#13;
j appeals strangely to one. She is' surpassed&#13;
in beauty by Monte Rosa and&#13;
In grandeur by the Matterhorn. To&#13;
me ahe is the loveliest of mountains.&#13;
| We reached the summit at sunset&#13;
i I never imagined such wonderful coloring&#13;
possible! The evening clouds&#13;
and shadows gathered, and finally&#13;
night enshrauded the peaks with its&#13;
dark, silent pall. We descended halfway&#13;
down the mountain and spent the&#13;
night at a picturesque Swiss Inn,&#13;
{ where we sat around the huge flre»&#13;
place relating strange experiences.&#13;
The following day we Journeyed to&#13;
Byaon's Lake Geneva, with Its romantic&#13;
castle of Chillon, spending two&#13;
weeks there. Then we came to Zeri&#13;
matt I am a real mountaineer now.&#13;
j You should see me attired in a rough&#13;
suit,, with spiked shoes, green hat&#13;
adorned with a sprig of edelweiss and&#13;
my "ruck-sack" strapped to my back.&#13;
I somewhat resemble Pilgrim on his&#13;
rough and weary way. First we ascended&#13;
Monte Rosa, and two days&#13;
later braved the Matterhora. I did&#13;
not enjoy climbing this mountain, sad&#13;
you will hardly blame me when you&#13;
have heard all.&#13;
Six of us started out, tied to the&#13;
same guide. After climbing for hours&#13;
and hours I became frightfully fatigued&#13;
and while scaling a rugged&#13;
crag I slipped and turned my ankle&#13;
again. To proceed was impossible.&#13;
The guide told us of several huts&#13;
built to shelter stormbound climbers,&#13;
Instructing us to remain there until&#13;
he returned, and not to attempt a&#13;
. descent Jack assisted me—in fact,&#13;
• I was almost helpless—to the hut, a&#13;
»suarter of a mils from the path. He&#13;
; built a fire and bandaged my ankle,&#13;
giving me instant relief, and I fell&#13;
asleep.&#13;
I awoke several hours later, to And&#13;
a tempting spread, the contents of our&#13;
ruck-saokv We were ravenously hungry&#13;
and ate everything In sight At&#13;
three o'clock a terrific snowstorm, in&#13;
all its fiendish fury, burst upon the&#13;
mountain. I tried my best not to appear&#13;
frightened, but as the hours wots&#13;
oh and Inky darkness enveloped us, I&#13;
wondered if the guide had forgotten&#13;
to come. All night long we strained&#13;
our ears for any sound which might&#13;
foretell the a*pproach of the party.&#13;
Morning found" the storm still raging.&#13;
Jack showed signs of worry. Our&#13;
food was entirely gone. At two&#13;
o'clock the sky cleared and we started&#13;
to descend. We badnt gone'far whan&#13;
wa were met by a searching party.&#13;
Two of tbsw escorted us to Zeros*.&#13;

Gloomy for the Progressive*.&#13;
The Republicans of the house will&#13;
meet in caucus and will decide on&#13;
the members who are to represent&#13;
their party in the committees. If the&#13;
Democrats, as it is said they are to&#13;
do, recognize only one minority party,&#13;
the fate of the Progressiva* so far as&#13;
committee representation is concerned,&#13;
will be entirely ID the hands&#13;
of the Republicans.&#13;

committee Representation, but&#13;
being so greatljf In the minority and&#13;
A^so feeing under the handicap of the&#13;
determination of the Democrats not&#13;
to recognise them as a party, they&#13;
perhaps will be able to do nothing&#13;
more than merely tc demand committee&#13;
representation, for it is seemingly&#13;
inconceivable that the Progressives&#13;
will ask the Republicans to do anything&#13;
for their; In the matter of assignments&#13;
to the subsidiary bodies&#13;
of the house.&#13;
It is virtually certain that the Republicans&#13;
will have something to say&#13;
to the Progressives about this committee&#13;
membership matter, but as&#13;
there is a stronger partisanship feeling&#13;
between the Republicans and the&#13;
Progressives than there is between&#13;
either of them and the Democrats, the&#13;
chances are that the Progressives will&#13;
refuse to accept any favors at the&#13;
hands of the Republicans. If the Republicans&#13;
make up their. mlnd*:-4o offer&#13;

Planning for Inauguration.&#13;
Washington already is . making&#13;
preparations for its "greatest show&#13;
on earth" Every fourth year&#13;
the capital for tv.o, months and&#13;
a half is la the proverbial, and&#13;
perhaps bromidic, "rush of preparation."&#13;
It is the intention of the&#13;
Pernocrats to make Woodrow Wilson's&#13;
inauguration a record-breaking event&#13;
and neither money nor pains will be&#13;
spared to accomplish the end in view.&#13;
Prior to every presidential inaugural&#13;
ceremony two committees are appointed&#13;
"to put the thing through."&#13;
There is the- congreastoual xommitte*&#13;
which tills year already has been authorized&#13;
and the local Washington&#13;
committee, much larger in member&#13;
ship than the other and which really&#13;
does a greater amount of work. Congress&#13;
ha* provided for the appointment&#13;
of three members of the senate&#13;
and three members of the house ot&#13;
representatives tc make the necessary&#13;
arrangements from the law makers'&#13;
point of view for the inducting into&#13;

Alt Kinds of Clubs Expected.&#13;
Already^it is known in Washington&#13;
that it is the Intention of the local&#13;
committee acting through leading&#13;
Democrats in all parts of the country&#13;
to have every state in the Union represented&#13;
by political organizations, by&#13;
marching clubs of ariy proper kind&#13;
which can make a good parade showing,&#13;
and by any business bodies&#13;
which can be represented properly&#13;
without giving the Impression that&#13;
their endeavors are partisan. It Is&#13;

B y / Q l o m i CLINTON.&#13;
Washington.—Secretary of the Na*y&#13;
Mey*r has asked for three new battleships.&#13;
Last year congress authorised&#13;
only one battleship, and did not authorise&#13;
that one until there had been&#13;
* pretty warm controversy on.the subject&#13;
in the house of representatives.&#13;
It is said that the Republican secretary&#13;
of the navy haa been prompted&#13;
torask for three battleship* by the&#13;
fact that the Democratic platform&#13;
adopted at Baltimore pledged the&lt;4&#13;
»*rty to care for the needs of the&#13;
navy.&#13;
Last year, when the naval bill was&#13;
before the house committee, it became&#13;
known that the members of the&#13;
majority party were divided as to the&#13;
advisability of adding battleships to&#13;
the navy. Most of the committee&#13;
members were in favor of the increase,&#13;
but the opposition was strong on the&#13;
floor of the house, and particularly&#13;
strong because some of the recognized&#13;
party leaders were very much opposed&#13;
to an enlarged building program. A&#13;
compromise was effected and one battleship&#13;
and several smaller ships were&#13;
authorized for construction.&#13;
' Trying Roosevelt's Method?&#13;
Tt is believed by many members of&#13;
congress that Secretary Meyer has in&#13;
mind Just what Theodore Roosevelt&#13;
had In mind some years ago. Mr.&#13;
Roosevelt wanted two additional battleships&#13;
built for the navy, but he&#13;
knew that congress was opposed to&#13;
any great increase in the naval&#13;
strength at that time. So it was that&#13;
Mr. Roosevelt, wanting two ships,&#13;
asked for four, and the two were&#13;
forthcoming ia the nature ot a compromise,&#13;
a compromise which probably&#13;
made the president chuckle, because&#13;
he. got just what he wanted and&#13;
just what he was afraid he would not&#13;
get It is suggested that Mr. Meyer&#13;
hopes, through the compromise plan,&#13;
to get two ships, whereas if he only&#13;
asked for two he might have to be&#13;
content with one.&#13;
Th« United State* navy Is today&#13;
third in strength among the naval&#13;
powers of the world. Great Britain&#13;
and Germany lead this country, and&#13;
Prance follows it as the possessor of&#13;
fourth place, although the French&#13;
navy is nearly as strong, on paper at&#13;
any rate, as the navy of Uncle Sam.&#13;
The navy department wftats more&#13;
sailor*, and it has asked congress,&#13;
through Senator Perkins of California,&#13;
who has introduced a bill to that effect,&#13;
to increase the enlisted strength&#13;
Of the navy by one thousand, bringing&#13;
the total strength up to 63,600 sailors.&#13;
An increase is asked for the marine&#13;
corps ot 20 per cent, and If it is&#13;
granted there will within the next&#13;
year be ten thousand five hundred marines&#13;
ia the service of the country.&#13;
May Revive Tariff Board.&#13;
The tariff board, which went out of&#13;
existence because of a refusal on the&#13;
part of congress to renew an appropriation&#13;
for its support, may possibly&#13;
come back Into being again after the&#13;
tariff has been revised by the next&#13;
congress.&#13;
There is a strong organisation,&#13;
known as the National Tariff Commission&#13;
association, which is working&#13;
hard to arouse public Bentlraent in&#13;
favor of a permanent commission,&#13;
which shall study business conditions&#13;
at home and abroad and make specific&#13;
reports on the schedules to congress,&#13;
with the view of having them adjusted,&#13;
so that from time to time the tarlffon&#13;
certain articles may be changed&#13;
without disturbing the whole tariff&#13;
list.&#13;
Already congress is being memorialized&#13;
by associations and by individuals&#13;
to give force and effect to a real&#13;
national tariff commission. It has just&#13;
been announced that there will be a&#13;
convention of the advocates of the&#13;
tariff commission, to be held in Washington,&#13;
probably simultaneously with&#13;
the opening of the extra session of the&#13;
new congress.&#13;
Only One Minority party?&#13;
There have been happenings&#13;
fithin A few day* in congress&#13;
which point to the injection^ of&#13;
trouble for the Republicans and Progressives&#13;
in the n&lt;xt house. It is&#13;
now currently reported and believed,&#13;
from what the Democratic leaders&#13;
have said privately, that it is the intention&#13;
of their party In the house and&#13;
senate, when congress meets in extra&#13;
session, W recognise only one minority&#13;
party, namely, the Republican.&#13;
Oh (he face of it, it would not seem&#13;
that this would create, any particular&#13;
amount, of trouble, hot when the matter&#13;
of the committee* is taken. Into&#13;
consideration and the present method&#13;
of appointing members to them is&#13;
thought on, trouble loonis largo. Under&#13;
the present system of committee&#13;
appointment* in the house, the majority&#13;
party and too minority party&#13;

The Roosevelt inauguration of 190&#13;
was one of the greatest affairs from a.&#13;
purely picturesque and perhaps spectacular&#13;
point of. view that ever had&#13;
the capital city for its setting. f)f&#13;
course the "Rough Riders." atid tfie&#13;
cowboy contingent from the west gave&#13;
particular interest to the evetii '&#13;
It is said to be the" determination&#13;
of the men who are to be In charge&#13;
of Mr. Wilson's inauguration' to make&#13;
the,celebration of March 4 next every&#13;
whit as.interesting and as picturesque&#13;
at that witnessed in March. 196s.&#13;
There will be a big military display&#13;
at Mr. Wilson's inauguration although&#13;
some of the. members of hi* party&#13;
are opposed to such use of the military,&#13;
holding that it is un-Democratic.&#13;
Already it has been arranged to have&#13;
the regular* from Fort My or. Fortress&#13;
Monroe, and frcm the forts farther up&#13;
the Chesapeake, in Washington on&#13;
March 4, and with these regular* will&#13;

from all the states will be Invited to&#13;
participate and If the rule of former,&#13;
years ia followed it is virtually -certain&#13;
that at least a dozen state Organisation*&#13;
will, be represented by crack&#13;
regiment* of the guard.&#13;

Attempts at Friendly Adjustment of&#13;
Outrages Against American Life&#13;
and Property Have vFailetf.&#13;
, . -v • .&#13;
A protectorate over that portion of&#13;
Mexico in which American Interests&#13;
are tocated, it is believed will be es-&#13;
Ubiiched within the next 30 days, inv:&#13;
ie**_ Pfoeident Madero accedes to the&#13;
demandfc;of President Taft's ultimatum&#13;
s e p t i ^ : \ • •'&#13;
It is admitted by the state department&#13;
that attempts at friendly adjustment&#13;
of the outrages against American&#13;
life and property in Northern&#13;
Mexico have failed, and the president's&#13;
exasperation at Mexico's insolent attitude&#13;
culminated with that country's&#13;
answer on Dec. 14 to his demand for&#13;
redress, sent in September.&#13;
In his reply Madero admitted his&#13;
Inability to cope with the situation,&#13;
practicaly refused the consideration&#13;
of Indemnity for Americans whose property&#13;
had been destroyed, and Intimated&#13;
that the Americans who have&#13;
died there deserved their fate.&#13;
The reprisals threatened against&#13;
Mexico in Taft'3 ultimatum .would permit&#13;
revolutionists against Madero to&#13;
use this country as the base of their&#13;
operations, it was poipted OMt&lt; It would&#13;
inevitably mean the fall of the present&#13;
Mexican government.&#13;
However, officials figured out that in&#13;
such a case the United States probably&#13;
would be but little bettei* so far&#13;
as securing protection to American citizezns&#13;
and their property in Mexico&#13;
was concerned, than at present since&#13;
the 'revolutionary movement ih Mexico&#13;
Is more" 6r TesS disorganlged and includes&#13;
the very element against whose&#13;
outrages the United States Is complaining.&#13;
The Mexican situation was rendered&#13;
more acute by information to the&#13;
state department that Americans in&#13;
Cananea, Sonora, were In grave danger&#13;
from 1,000 Mexican miners, employed&#13;
in American mines, who have&#13;
gone on strike.&#13;

result of the canvass made by the&#13;
state board of canvassers. The vote&#13;
was 247,375 for and 24&amp;,135 against.&#13;
The returns from Wayne county&#13;
were received, and show 84,930 for .the&#13;
amendment to 46,902 against. *&#13;
Just one month and 15 days elapsed&#13;
after election before the final result&#13;
was determined, approximately the&#13;
same as published: It is thought that&#13;
there will be no more efforts on the&#13;
part of equal suffrage workers to make&#13;
further attempts to change the result&#13;
of the election and the question only&#13;
remains as to when the question will&#13;
again be submitted to the legislature.&#13;

the wild pea vine and vetch, the rye'&#13;
grass, the red*top and many other succulent&#13;
and nutritious varieties of wild&#13;
graasea deosanded and deserved from&#13;
their prominence and quality the attention&#13;
they received. The grain lh&#13;
the straw, bright In color, and carry*&#13;
lng heads that gave evidence of the&#13;
truth of the statements of Mr. W. J.&#13;
White of Ottawa, and bis attendants,&#13;
that the wheat would average 28 to&#13;
36 bushels and over per acre, the oat*&#13;
55 to 105 bushels, the flax 12 to 28&#13;
bushels, were strongly In evidence,&#13;
and arranged with artistic taste on&#13;
the walls. The vegetable exhibit wae&#13;
a surprise to the visitors. 'Potatoes,&#13;
turnips^ «*bbege-**-ln fact, all , of i t&#13;
proved that not only in grains'w*tt&#13;
western Canada prominent, but in&#13;
vegetable* it could successfully com*&#13;
pete with the world.&#13;
One of the unique and successful&#13;
feature* of the exhibit was the «&amp;cceutut&#13;
and systematic dally distribution&#13;
of bread made from Canadian&#13;
flour. It was a treat io those who got&#13;
It. Canadian butter, Canadian flhec**'&#13;
and Canadian honey helped to complete&#13;
an exhibit that revealed in a&#13;
eplendid way the great resources of&#13;
a country in which so many American*&#13;
hare made their home.&#13;
A feature of the exhibit was the&#13;
placard*, announcing the several recent&#13;
successes of Canadian farm&#13;
produce and live stock in strong competition&#13;
with exhibits from- ecker&#13;
countries. There wa* pdsted the&#13;

reads of--them; worthy only- to be&#13;
classed with the Idle, superstitious&#13;
fears of young girls and old women,&#13;
and impossible to a well-balanced,&#13;
clearTfyeaked man of twenty-nine. It&#13;
may.; be; that I waa not well-balanced&#13;
and clear-headed. And" jr&gt;t the sequel&#13;
would tend rather to a contrary&#13;
conclusion.&#13;
Cameron was still reading the Herald,&#13;
and I sat.with a pair of binoculars&#13;
at my eyes sweeping the waters&#13;
fqr the trailing 'spioke of a liner or&#13;
some object of lesaer interest.&#13;
Presently the silence was broken&#13;
by my companion.&#13;
"I see," he began, dropping the paper&#13;
to his knees; "that China is really&#13;
in earnest in her anti-opium campaign.&#13;
Two Peking officials have died&#13;
from the. effects of a too-hasty breaking&#13;
of the habit. Men do not die in&#13;
the attempt to obey mere paper reforms.&#13;

"You've seen something of them in&#13;

"No, very little. I attended a dinner&#13;
once at which Li Hung Chang was&#13;
the guest of honor; and I've eaten&#13;
chop suey in cne of those Chinese&#13;

That's about the extent of my personal&#13;
Chinese experience. But I have&#13;
always been interested in the country&#13;
and HB people. I bare read about&#13;
everything that has been published&#13;
on the subject. By the way, did they&#13;
ever find out who killed that boy of&#13;

They were lifting the fisherman&#13;
aboard when Cameron, at length&#13;
aroused by the unusual, strolled forward&#13;
and Joined me.&#13;
"There's your bit of wreckage," 1 ob- {&#13;
served, smiling.&#13;
"Poor devil!" he exclaimed, aym-"&#13;
pathetically. "He seems more dead,&#13;
than aljve.&#13;
"He's breathing, sir," announced&#13;
Brandon, the lirst officer, "and ndt&#13;
much more. We'll take him below,&#13;
and see what can be done for him,&#13;
sir."&#13;
He appeared to be about forty years&#13;
of age, a somewhat shrunken, weather-&#13;
beaten creature, with face deeply&#13;
lined and half hidden behind possibly&#13;
a week's growth of dark beard. It Is&#13;
not easy to read a man with his eyes&#13;
closed, but I was far from prepossessed&#13;
by what of this fellow's features&#13;
waa on view. Ordinarily I&#13;
should have given him scant heed, but&#13;
today was no ordinary day. and my&#13;
suspicions were superactiye. Even the&#13;
most trivial occurrences took on significance.&#13;
And this was not a trivial&#13;
occurrence. Certainly it was not&#13;
usual. Fishermen blown to sea In&#13;
storms and overcome by exposure,&#13;
hunger and thirst were common&#13;
enough, perhaps, but within the past&#13;
week there had been no storm; the&#13;
weather had been aa mild as that of&#13;
June, with an August day or two&#13;
thrown in. How was It possible, then,&#13;
for this bit of flotsam to have come&#13;
where it was and in the condition it&#13;
was?&#13;
To Cameron I gave no hint of my&#13;
reasoning, but to Captain MacLeod I&#13;
put the question without hesitation.&#13;
"It does seem a bit odd, Mr. Clyde,"&#13;
he returned, judicially, "but you see&#13;
his mast and sail had gone by the&#13;
board and his oars, too. It looks to&#13;
me, sir, as if he'd been run down, maybe,&#13;
and nigh swamped. Of course we&#13;
can't tell till he gets his senses and&#13;
lets us know."&#13;
Though this put the matter in a&#13;
new light, it did not by any means relieve&#13;
my anxiety; and I aBked Mac-&#13;
Leod to have a sharp watch kept on&#13;
the fellow, adding that I would come&#13;
to him later for anything he might&#13;
team. I took care, too, to caution him&#13;
to make no mention of the affair in&#13;
the presence of-Carperon.&#13;
It was not until after dinner that&#13;
evening that I found opportunity again&#13;
to question the captain. I came upon&#13;
him in his stateroom, a comfortably&#13;
commodious cabin, far forward on the&#13;
upper deck. On his table was spread&#13;
a chart, over which he was bending&#13;
when I entered. A briarwood was&#13;
gripped firmly between his teeth and&#13;
the grateful odor of clean pipe smoke&#13;
greeted me as I entered.&#13;
"He's come around, Mr. Clyde," be&#13;
informed me, turning about; in his&#13;
swivel chair, "and I'm just trying to&#13;
check up some of his statements by&#13;
means of this . chart here, and. our&#13;
weather record."&#13;
"And how do they check so far?"&#13;
I asked, a little dubiously.&#13;
"Quite to a dot, sir," was his answer.&#13;
"There's no breakdown anywhere,&#13;
so far. According to his story,&#13;
he sailed out of Oloucester harbor on&#13;
Monday morning. His name's Peter&#13;
Johnson, and he lives in East Gloucester.&#13;
He says the wind was strong from&#13;
the westward, and he made the banks&#13;
all right without rolahap. But about&#13;
noon, the wind died, and a thick fog&#13;
came in from the northeast, chill and&#13;
sopping, sir. . He kept moving about,&#13;
and finally in the thick of it lost his&#13;
bearings. It had clouded over and&#13;
after a little it began to rain. He&#13;
made a try for Gloucester harbor, but&#13;
must have sailed southeast Instead of&#13;
northwest. Then tht night came&#13;
down, and the fog was like a dosen&#13;
blankets, ha says. His food was gone&#13;
and most of his water, but he said&#13;
he'd seen worse than that many a&#13;
time, and judt prayed for the fog to&#13;
lift and give him a sight of the stats.&#13;
And the next thing that happened was&#13;
what I suspected, sir. He heard "a&#13;
steamer's whistle. He had bis sheet&#13;
out and was running before the wind,&#13;
arid that steamer coming upon him&#13;
out of the fog, caught his boom; ripped&#13;
out his mist and nearly capslsed his&#13;
dory. When she rltfnted, the steam*&#13;
el's lights were fadthg into the' fog&#13;
agaia^his boat wis half full of water&#13;
I and his oars were washed away. Well,&#13;
sfcv to make • long: story short, he&#13;
mast haee caught s* current that carried&#13;
him well out beyond Cape Cod,&#13;
and then slewed him around the&#13;
eouthermoet ead of 'Nantucket island.-|&#13;
r questioned him about lights and fog&#13;
fork hair mat- jetgnals, and making due allowance for&#13;
his condltioa, his yam works out pie*&#13;
if /jtnlgfct He'd been drifting about&#13;
for- three1 days When we picked him&#13;
up- and ^was half dead of thirst mid&#13;
out what appeared to me to be a sea*&#13;
going tug or pilot boat, steaming, I&#13;
thought, with rather unusual speed for&#13;
a vessel of her class, It was not&#13;
much of a •discovery, but the wateni&#13;
had been, very barren that morning,&#13;
especially for the last two hours, and&#13;
insignificant as this object was I felt&#13;
in a manner rewarded for my vigil.&#13;
Half an hour later she had slipped&#13;
out of sight and I was busy in an effort&#13;
to pick her up again, when a cry&#13;
from the lookout forward directed my&#13;
attention to a floating speck possibly&#13;
two miles or more dead ahead, and&#13;
not more than a point off our, course.&#13;
"Come," I said to Cameron, "let's&#13;
go up on the bridge apd have a look!"&#13;
"And have our trouble for ouV&#13;
pains?" he returned, incredulously.&#13;
"It's probably some bit of wreckage,&#13;
a box or a cask."&#13;
"Very well," I agreed, starting off&#13;
alone. "Even a box or a cask is worth \&#13;
while as a variation/'&#13;
When on nearer approach the drifting&#13;
object proved to be a fisherman's&#13;
dory, with a man, either dead or unconscious,&#13;
plainly discernible In the&#13;
bottom, I should hardly have been human&#13;
had I not experienced a degree&#13;
of, satisfaction over Cameron's failure&#13;
as a prophet. That, however, was the&#13;
least abiding of my sensations. In an&#13;
instant it had given way to anxiety&#13;
concerning the boat's occupant and&#13;
Interest in the business-like manner&#13;
in which MacLeod, the stocky young&#13;
executive officer of the Sibylla, was&#13;
preparing to pick up our And.4&#13;
The engine room had been signaled&#13;
half-speed aheed, and already a aailor&#13;
with a coll of rope In hand was stationed&#13;
at the forward gangway. I&#13;
have frequently seen rtver pilots make&#13;
ladings that were marvels of Clever&#13;
calculation, but I never saw any steer*&#13;
tag more accurately gauged than^hat&#13;

surge of ocean to combat, brought the&#13;
yacht glldia* within a fear* Usee&#13;
lftcnetvof the roHln* dory's bow,,&#13;
I was leaning over the rail aa we&#13;
came thus upon the caataway. and&#13;
saw clearly enough for jaat a moment&#13;

"Thank you."&#13;
I thought of having a look at Peter&#13;
Johnson, myself, for I was somewhat&#13;
curious to study that face again when&#13;
it was sentient, and nad eyes open,&#13;
but on second thought I decided to&#13;
wait until morning. It seemed silly&#13;
to suspect thir seemingly honest but&#13;
Unfortunate fisherman.-&#13;
We had not been speeding so well&#13;
during the afternoon; there was some&#13;
trouble reported from the engine&#13;
room, and It was a question whether&#13;
we had made over fifteen knots an&#13;
hour since two o'clock. I know that&#13;
at ten o'clock that night, when the&#13;
moon went down, we were somewhere&#13;
oastrof Nantucket, and directly in the&#13;
path of the transatlantic liners.&#13;
The night was balmy as a night in&#13;
springtime, and Cameron and I in&#13;
light overcoats sat on the after-deck,&#13;
watching the moon slide slowly below&#13;
the dark horizon line. Our chairs, were&#13;
close together, facing the lee rail; his&#13;
the farther astern. We talked ofmany&#13;
things, I remember. He was always&#13;
interested in my work, and especially&#13;
in my ambitions to make The&#13;
Week a power for national good; and,&#13;
I remember that we discussed several&#13;
projects I then had in mind for bringing&#13;
about reform in high places. But&#13;
the subject which then interested me&#13;
most, and regarding which I still experienced&#13;
a vague, unreasoning uneasiness,&#13;
he had avoided throughout the&#13;
day and evening, with what seemed&#13;
to me studied Intent.&#13;
The sudden cessation of hostilities&#13;
on the part of those whom he had&#13;
been given every reason to look upon&#13;
as his implacable enemies, was certainly&#13;
strange enough to have Invited&#13;
endless debate; and I marveled that,&#13;
after having accepted my falsehood&#13;
as truth, he had not chosen to go over&#13;
with me the whole marvelously perplexing&#13;
business.&#13;
His mind, I knew, was relieved by&#13;
what I had made him believe, or he&#13;
would not now be the man he was;&#13;
but despite that, it appeared to mo.&#13;
it would be most natural for him, on&#13;
this day of all days—the twenty-first&#13;
of the month—to question, at least,&#13;
my previously emphatically stated&#13;
conclusions*&#13;
There had been a moment of silence&#13;
between us, and these reflections were&#13;
dominant with me, as six bells, ringing&#13;
out musically, announced that&#13;
midnight was but an hour distant. At&#13;
that instant, while in time to the&#13;
bell's strokes, there echoed in my&#13;
brain the1'words'? "Know then, that before&#13;
the morning of the efghth day&#13;
hence—" Cameron, lowering his cigar,&#13;
turned to me witbi&#13;
"Clyde, I wonder If you have forgotten&#13;
what day this is!"&#13;
I doh't know why, coming at Just&#13;
that particular Juncture, the question&#13;
should*he more upsetting than If it&#13;
had come at some other time of day,&#13;
but I know it seemed so to me.&#13;
For a little space my tongue refused&#13;
its office. There was a lump in ray&#13;
throat which demanded to be swallowed,&#13;
and 1 made a pretence of&#13;
coughing to hide my plight. At length&#13;
I answered, a bit lamely:&#13;
"No, I haven't forgotten. It's&#13;
Wednesday, the twenty-first of October."&#13;
He returned his cigar to his lips and&#13;
smoked in silence for a full minute.&#13;
Then, he said, quietly:&#13;
"It's seven days aince that empty&#13;
envelope came."&#13;
/'Yes," I returned.&#13;
There was another slight pause and&#13;
he went on:&#13;
"I have been thinking that possibly&#13;
you were wrong about the significance&#13;
of that empty envelope. Possibly&#13;
those enigmatical peraons Intended&#13;
that absence of a definite threat to&#13;
imply the inconceivably terrible."&#13;
Now that he had started to talk&#13;
about it, I wished that be had continued&#13;
his silence. 1 could not understand&#13;
how I had convinced him be^&#13;
fore, knowing all the while that I was&#13;
without truth to support me. Certainly,&#13;
now, pervaded as I was with&#13;
that grim disquietude, it would be&#13;
even more difficult to carry conviction&#13;
with my words.&#13;
"Whatever they intended," I ventured,&#13;
yielding a fraction of a point,&#13;
"it seems to me that they'll have some&#13;
difficulty in carrying it out. There&#13;
are no portraits hero to mutilate and&#13;
no mirrors to smash. For the previ-&#13;
I WM quite sure, of counev bujr i&#13;
^akwrfeo smoke*!, 0|.duletly; fo* a&#13;
while in'a ruminative mood,- Eventually&#13;
he threw the end of his cigar&#13;
over the rail, and leaned forward.&#13;
'TtfdfVt know,'" h*' said perplexedly.&#13;
"I don't know."&#13;
This I hoped was to be the end&#13;
of the matter, for tonight at least; but&#13;
presently he began to talk of those&#13;
first two letters, to conjecture, to wonder,&#13;
to dissect phrases, to dig out&#13;
subtleties of meaning from euphemistic&#13;
expressions. And then I knew that,&#13;
he had every word memorized, JuBt&#13;
as I had.&#13;
Seven bells had struck and we were&#13;
still talking. But now and then there&#13;
were pauses in our converse—Intervals&#13;
of silence of varying length—during&#13;
which I sat with my gaze stretching&#13;
out over the black waters and my&#13;
hearing strained for any unusual&#13;
sound. . More than once during the&#13;
evening I thought I had detected far&#13;
off the pounding note of a motor&#13;
boat's exhaust, but had put ths notion&#13;
aside as too Jmprobab.V (QT entertainment.&#13;
Now, faintly, I s*emed to hear&#13;
it again; not so distant, but muffled.&#13;
I got up and stood close to the rail,&#13;
and listened with ear Ijent. Then I&#13;
determined to go. to m&gt; cabin for a.&#13;
night glass which. I had included&#13;
among my traps. But at that moment&#13;
the sound, which I had made sure of,&#13;
ceased, and I stood a second or two&#13;
longer, expecting it to resume.&#13;
Altogether it was not over a minute&#13;
or two that 1 stood there. It seemed&#13;
much less than that. Then I turned&#13;
with a question for Cameron. I wondered&#13;
whether he had heard the sound&#13;
too.&#13;
"I say, Cam—" I began, and stopped,&#13;
startled, with his name half uttered.&#13;
His chair was empty. He was not&#13;
on deck. I ran to the saloon. He was&#13;
not there. I flung open the door of&#13;
his stateroom. He was not there, either.&#13;
I had the yacht searched for&#13;
him. ' He was not on the yacht.&#13;
CHAPTER IX.&#13;
A Craft Without Lights.&#13;
Composure is second nature with&#13;
me. I claim no credit for it; it is a&#13;
matter of temperament rather than&#13;
\ cultivation. But now my temperament&#13;
was all awry, and my composure fled&#13;
me. I waB excited. More than that,&#13;
I waa frantic, distracted, rattled. I&#13;
wanted to do a dosen things at once;&#13;
to get answers to a score of questions&#13;
in a single moment. And the&#13;
consequence may be Imagined. For&#13;
five—ten minutes, nothing waa done&#13;
whatever. Then the search-light was&#13;
got into play, sweeping the waters on&#13;
all sides, far and near; but with paltry&#13;
result. Five or six miles astern&#13;
we made out a power boat, similar to*&#13;
that which I had seen through the&#13;
glass earlier in the day. To the eastward&#13;
a steamer with two funnels was&#13;
just coming into range. The white&#13;
sails of a coasting schooner showed&#13;
to westward. Trailing in our wake&#13;
was our squalid salvage, the dory of&#13;
{the fisherman^&#13;
MacLeod, trained to coolness, ret.&#13;
talned his wits. Systematically he&#13;
set to work. Likely and unlikely&#13;
places aboard the yacht were looked&#13;
into. Before I knew what he waa&#13;
about, we were going back over the&#13;
way we had come with the searchlight&#13;
swinging in a circle and a halfdozen&#13;
sharp-eyed seamen scanning&#13;
every square foot of rolling wave.&#13;
"I can't understand it," I kept repeating&#13;
aloud, with senseless iteration.&#13;
"I can't understand it."&#13;
I was standing alone, well forward,&#13;
leaning over the rail. Presently Mac-&#13;
Leod laid a hand on my shoulder.&#13;
"We can't do anything more than&#13;
we are doing, Mr, Clyde," he said in&#13;
his matter-of-fact way. "For my part,&#13;
I can't understand it, either; but since&#13;
Mr. Cameron's not aboard, there's&#13;
only one conclusion, and that is that&#13;
he's overboard. And aince there was&#13;
no one interested in throwing him&#13;
there, then it seems very clear that&#13;
he must have jumped."&#13;
—^Jumped!" I cried, in • Irritation.&#13;
"My God, man! Don't I tell you that&#13;
I was not three feet away from him,&#13;
and only for a minute qr two? How&#13;
ceuld he have Jumped without my&#13;
bearing him? How could he even&#13;
have got out of his chair, without my&#13;
hearing him?"&#13;
The captain shrugged his shoulders.&#13;

RINGWORM ON CHILD'S FACE'&#13;
Stratford, Iowa.-r-"Threj&amp; years e#s&gt;:&#13;
this winter my seven-year-old eon had&#13;
ringworm on ljhe fage. First, it «aa;.}jnv*&#13;
small red spots which had a, roujft.&#13;
crust on the top'. When they started&#13;
they looked like little red dots and&#13;
then they got bigger, about the slse&#13;
of a bird's egg. They had a white&#13;
rough ring around them, and grew&#13;
continually worse and soon spread&#13;
over his face and legs. The child suffered&#13;
terrible Itching and burning, ee&gt;&#13;
that he could not sleep nights. He&#13;
scratched them and they looked fearful.&#13;
He was cross when he had them.&#13;
We used several bottles of liniment&#13;
but nothing helped.&#13;
"I saw where a child had a rash o*&#13;
the face and was cured by Cuticom&#13;
Soap and Ointment and I decided to&#13;
use them. I used Cuttcura Soap and&#13;
Ointment about one month, and they ,&#13;
cured my child completely." (Signed)..&#13;

Pneumonia is the king of all&#13;
diseases in Michigan when it&#13;
comes to fatalities. It cost a total&#13;
of 2,164 lives in the first ten&#13;
months of 1912. Tuberculosis was&#13;
a close second with 1,870 and cancer&#13;
was next with 1,796. Measels&#13;
were the mildest disease with bat&#13;
79 fatalities. There were 458&#13;
deaths from typhoid fever, Which&#13;
is the lowest in twelve years. E p -&#13;
idemics at Marquette ancT Port&#13;
Huron helped to make the number&#13;
larger or a record would have&#13;
been made that would stand for&#13;
years.&#13;
•enabling1 a small housefly, in June.&#13;
These flies lay th*ir eggs on the upper&#13;
wheat leaves. The eggs hatch, into&#13;
the little greenish-white worms with&#13;
the small black feeding hooka at one&#13;
end. These* worms crawl down the&#13;
wheat Jeaf and feed on the stalk, causing&#13;
the part of the stalk above where&#13;
they are feeding to turn white. This&#13;
brood ot worms stays in the straw till&#13;
July or August, when it changes into&#13;
another brood of flies. The flieB, by&#13;
laying eggs on volunteer wheat and on&#13;
grasses, produce another brood of&#13;
flies by September or October. It was&#13;
this third brood that laid the eggs&#13;
Which hatched into the little green&#13;
worms we speak ot This brood 'of&#13;
worms does damage by working its&#13;
way down into the crown of the wheat&#13;
plant, often cutting off the central&#13;
stem and in this way causing considerable&#13;
damage.&#13;
If it were not for the numerous parasitic&#13;
enemies of thls^ wheat pes4 J.t&#13;
might become more dangerous O n&#13;
the Hessian fly, which it resembies&#13;
very mucj in its general habits. In&#13;
one respect it is even worse than the&#13;
Hessian fly, in that it can f«cJ on&#13;
many other grasses beside wheat&#13;
There are few practical measures of&#13;
controlling the pest Rotation of crops&#13;
and late planting of winter wheat are&#13;
not as effective as with Hessian fly.&#13;
Wheat Bulb Worm or 8tem Maggot*&#13;
The most practical thing which man&#13;
can do to control wheat bulb worms is&#13;
to burn, the straw and stubble after&#13;
harvest, destroying the worms of the&#13;
second brood before they come out of&#13;
the straw to change into the fly form.&#13;
The Nebraska station suggests that&#13;
wheat planted in October Is less liable&#13;
to trouble, although not entirely free.&#13;
COUNTRY ROADS OF CONCRETE&#13;
One That Cannot Become Muddy and&#13;
at All Times Provide Secure Safe&#13;
Footing Is Desired.&#13;
It is becoming, more and more evidant&#13;
to farmers and those interested&#13;
fin good country roads that a more&#13;
lasting material than earth or the ordinary&#13;
macadam must be used. Near&#13;
Coshocton, 0., two concrete roads&#13;
have been built which have successfully&#13;
withstood one severe winter and&#13;
show no wear either from* traJflo or&#13;
weather.&#13;
The first view shows a 10-foot con*&#13;
Crete strip laid on the old roadbed.&#13;
The second shows an IMoot strip of&#13;
the full width of the road. The latter&#13;
Joins the macadam read which Is&#13;
deeply worn and rutted. Concrete in&#13;
the first case replaced a block stone&#13;
read, which had given away under&#13;
heavy floods and travel, and the other,&#13;
a limestone macadam road, whose life&#13;
was only one year, due to heavy traffic&#13;
At present the 18-foot strip road&#13;
carries all travel from the concrete&#13;
road and also from another brick road&#13;
and shows much less wear than the&#13;
brick.&#13;
• country road which cannot become&#13;
muddy, which will give at all&#13;
times a secure footing for horses and&#13;
which will need little or no repairs,&#13;
would be the greatest Improvement In&#13;
farm conditions that has been made&#13;
In recent years. Concrete seems to be&#13;
the only material combining these&#13;
qualities with low cost • decade&#13;
from now, our country roads of concrete&#13;
may equal our city pavements&#13;
In efficiency under all conditions of&#13;
weather.&#13;

"This is something like it,"&#13;
Young .Borgus with satisfaction.&#13;
"It sure 1st" agreed Miss ClaW*&#13;
She shrugged her shoulders as she&#13;
. glanced back at the lace curtains of&#13;
[ the boarding house window. Inside&#13;
I the parlor the gas glared hotly, lighting&#13;
up the hair wreath above the mantel&#13;
aad glittering on the gaudy vases&#13;
beneath.&#13;
"Now, that It's got warm enough to&#13;
ait, outdoors," pursued young Borgui,&#13;
stretching his long legs over three&#13;
steps below him, "we can shake the&#13;
parlor in there! .Gee, but it was&#13;
fierce last winter, never to get a word&#13;
with you without a lot of old women&#13;
butting in with, 'Excuse me, but I am&#13;
looking for my crochet work! Lovely&#13;
evening, isn't it, Mr. Borgusf or&#13;
glaring at us for being there at all!&#13;
Or having callers of their own! Nice,&#13;
chatty conversations we could carry&#13;
on that way, couldn't we? I—"&#13;
"Oh," said a voice behind them as&#13;
the screen door creaked, "is some one&#13;
out here? Oh, it'a you, Miss Clancy—&#13;
and Mr. Borgus, of course! Ahem—&#13;
not that I meant anything, at all! I&#13;
suppose I've interrupted your conversation,&#13;
but it was so hot la there—I&#13;
can go right in—" .&#13;
"Don't think, of it, Mrs. Miner," said&#13;
MIs« Clancy, airily, rising. "Yon can&#13;
ha: uie steps and welcome. We are&#13;
just going for a walk anyhow. Gome&#13;
on, Jimmy!"&#13;
"Wouldn't that frost you! ** exclaimed&#13;
young Borgus after they had proceeded&#13;
a safe distance. "Just wanted to&#13;
find out what we were talking about!&#13;
Catch her sitting out there by herself!&#13;
We'll circle the block and see!"&#13;
When they got near enough again&#13;
to see the steps young Borgus gave a&#13;
low gurgle of triumph. The steps&#13;
i were empty.&#13;
"Come on," he said. "Let's go get&#13;
some ice cream. Just as sure as we&#13;
go back there somebody else'll come&#13;
out!" r&#13;
In a sympathetic sort of disgust&#13;
they sought the brillmntlz lighted&#13;
candy store on the corner\and found e&#13;
vacant table.&#13;
"Strawb'ree for me," said Miss&#13;
Clancy. "I just wonder, Jimmy, that&#13;
you haven't got tired before this and&#13;
quit me. It's fierce, going to see a&#13;
girl that hasn't a parlor of her own to&#13;
entertain company in! We've sure&#13;
been chased around enough by them&#13;
other boarders!"&#13;
"Well, were's away from 'em right&#13;
now," said young Borgus. "Let's make&#13;
the most of it I—"&#13;
"Why, the idea!" broke in a highpitched&#13;
voice at the next table. "If&#13;
it isn't Miss Clancy! Oh—how do&#13;
you do, Mr. Borgus!" There was an&#13;
arch inflection to-the greeting—that&#13;
was Intended to carry the idea that&#13;
the speaker appreciated the sentimental&#13;
situation.&#13;
"How-do, Miss Binks?" said Miss&#13;
Clancy stonily.&#13;
Miss Binks was forty, dressed like&#13;
twenty and fondly thought .she looked&#13;
like sixteen. She made eyes at young&#13;
Borgus, who turned purple. Then, she&#13;
arose with her plate of ice cream and&#13;
fluttered into the vacant chair at their&#13;
table. 'It's so lonesome by myself,"&#13;
she purred apologetically. "I was so&#13;
thirsty I just had to come out after&#13;
something cold, but I shrink from going&#13;
out la the evening unescorted..It's&#13;
more sociable tills way, dont you&#13;
think?"&#13;
"Oh, my, yeB!" agreed Miss Clancy&#13;
with sarcasm that was totally lost.&#13;
"Sorry, we're just through. We've got&#13;
an engagement to meet some friends!**&#13;
"Let me slip back and stick some&#13;
cold poison in her Ice cream," growled&#13;
young Borgus throatlly after they had&#13;
escaped. "She's the limit! Another&#13;
second and she'd have asked to go&#13;
walking with us! Let's go down to&#13;
the little park. If s only a few blocks&#13;
awayi*&#13;
He tucked Miss Clancy's hand In the&#13;
crook of his arm and they walked on&#13;
with regained cheerfulness. It Was&#13;
not so bad to be out In the dusk with&#13;
the faint echoes of a street piano: in&#13;
the air and automobiles whirring; by.&#13;
Presently their feet crunched the gravel&#13;
of the walk that ran around the littie&#13;
park and they stroHed&gt;on till they&#13;
found a bench that was unoccupied.&#13;
A lilac bush In bloom waved above&#13;
them.&#13;
**Geat" breathed young potgoe wltis&#13;
a vast exhaling of breath signifying&#13;
peace of mind at last&#13;

warmest part of thv wk will come about Wednesday With thi moderation in temperature ther will come storms of sleet or snow WhiL1 the winds will be moderately strong, We do not expect the precipitation to be overly heavy at this time Cloudy and stormy weather will last over Thursday and probably Friday of this week Following this the sky will clear anil the temperatures will have again fallen to low

In 1927 January wa nearly eight degrees colder than Feb ruary  in 1125 there was seven degrees difference in 1918, nine degrees The year 1929 seems to promise a colder January than February, if our figures are correct However, the month of January bids fair to be a sticker when it comes to pre Hctimr weather because we are expecting so much changeable weather There will not be the steady winter cold that is so necessary to people in general The death rate will increase this month due, we believe, to many of the older people contracting pneumonia or influenza Slushy, cold, rainy weather

worm was bound to turn, and  the girl, rapturiously, as she lovely daughter at the foot of the stairs, looked her over with adoring eyes  You are very charming, my dear, he said smiling His glance strayed to the handsome youth standing near the door, and again Peter marveled that he should have fathered two such wonderful children Both were of the brunette type, with the sparkling beauty of their Spanish grandmother and the grace and poise of their French ancestryapparent in their every movement Jill was 20, her brother 19 The two were in party dress Jills gown, a rich winecolored silk

carefully covered, one crooked move and down goes your house Im taking no chances with birds of your stripe His glance lifted to the face of the n girl standing on the running board directly opposite him It was plainly revealed for the first time in the bright lunar rays Jack stuart caught his breath with a little gasp at the startling, vivid beauty he saw Who was she He knew, of course, that she was, like himself, a victim of these two on whom he had turned the tables He recalled the blackjacking of her companion in another car They must have stopped to lend him aid He remembered seeing her being lifted from her car It had been that as much as any thing that had starred him into action He came to a swift decision Come around to this side, Miss, he said, motioning to the girl but not

stood two men  Looking past them Jills gaze rested for a fleeting instant on the form of a man lying at the side of the road Then things began to happen with lightning rapidity such things as Jill, in her wildest imaginings, had never considered Sap th bloke an cop th moll These strange words shot from the big man behind on the running board Before she had grasped their mean What a glorious night

essentially correct  insofar as they carried But they lacked one very important detail It was true that her captors were taking the car belonging to the man she had seen lying by the side of the road What her findings failed to encompass was the very pertinent fact that while Suddenly the moon disappeared and Jack Stuart siezed his opportunity It wa no small feat he was attempting as he soon realized The car was traveling fast, and the road was none too smooth But once he had a hand on the edge of the broad mudguard, he breathed easier Another acrobatic twist and his feet were on the

LAST OF SO MICH FORESTS The celebrated Newton woods, between Marcellus and Dowagic in Cass j  county, maybe preserved as a me morial to the Newton family It u said to be the last of the great forests that once covered nearly this entire section of Michigan, by the Decatur Republican   Some of the great oak trees in this 340acre tract of primeval forest are  said to rival the huge redwoods of California This tract of virgin timber is owned by Mrs Jane Newton Crego, 75, the last of her family She lives on the 740acre farm that has come down to her from her father and grandfather, in the shadow of the bir woods, and continues to manage the affairs of the broad acreage and keepc the woodman with his axe out of the  forest Mrs Crego coula take lifteasy if she would consent to the cutting of the timber on this 340 acre The value of the oak, hickory, maple, whitewood, beech and elm is almost beyond estimate These woods are visited by thousands of tourists luring the summer months It is widely known for its ferns, flowers and other forest plant life, as well as birds and wild animals that inhabit its fastness Dowagiac creek flows meanderingly through the big woods The tract of land on which these big woods are situated was taken up  by Mrs Cregos grandfather, James Newton, in 1830 There is a schoolhouse in the woods, the second structure erected on the site and

severe storms of the past month have seriously broken up the shore line south of Highland Park, near Grand Haven The shore line began changing about six months ago and  apprehension was felt for the several cottages close to the waters edge at Holcomb Hills, just south of Highland Park John DanhofT of Grand Rapids found it necessary at this time to obtain another lot and move his cottage back from the shore edge Mr Dan hoff first believed he would be able to hold the shore line by putting in a  piling But this proved to be insufficient Carl McNabb, also of Grand Rapids, who has a cottage near Mr Danhoffs,  endeavored to save the beach and location of his cottage by  the same methods, but also was unable to do PO, and this fall his cottage had to be taken down and rebuilt on a lot  somewhat higher up ir the hills It is hard to tell just what caused the change, although some lay the cause to the rise of the water level in  Ike Michigan The situation at the oval has not changed, due perhaps to its nearness to the south pier, which is believed to act as a protection to the beach There are many cottages reported in a dangerous position near Holland ,,,, ,,which to build this

Michigan ranks high in the list of states of the union in the volume of response to the National Housing Act, according to Raymond M Foley, State Federal Housing Administration J Director for Michigan The latest of ficial reports show Michigan to be in eighth place in number of loans made by the banks under the National Housing Act and also in dollar volume The most interesting point says Mr Foley is the rapid rate of in crease being shown in the state While active work has been going on for uhout three months, the work of the i first month had to be devoted to pre i liminary preparation Only about 4 percent of our total loans were made in the first month In the second month 2H percent were made In the third month about OS percent wr that prosperity I made This rapid increase shows the

publication is maintained, some unscrupulous Individuals may take ad vantage of this new avenue of publicity for selfish means It Is to be assumed that Mr Roosevelt will protect against this potential danger, but I  find in man quarters expressions of t tea that the thing may get out of IsMki eosejeVtstt President Is fully fore vaflsti at that he can be forearmed    Much significance attaches to the Presidents projected plan to take the profits out of war Presidents it is looked upon by Shrewd Move those wb know as a  very shrewd move, affecting both domestic and internation al politics It will be some time before its full import can be pieced together in one picture but when that time comes, wiseacres tell me, among the things to be seen will be 1 Notice to congress that the President Is not going to allow the legislative body to run away with things that gain publicity, if the scheme is one in  which he desires to participate 2 Notice to the world that the United States is not going to surrender leadership In world affairs even though the London naval conference has failed and even though Japan has renounced her signature to the Washington arms limitation treaty of 1922 It Is too early to make a guess whether the senators who mllitantly fought back after Mr Roosevelts pronouncement will get anywhere Those senators were the leaders in the senate committees munitions investiga tion Senator Nye, the committee chairman, with all of the breeze of his North Dakota plains, accused the President in effect of trying to stop the munitions inquiry Senator Vandenberg of Michigan challenged the Presidents right to interfere Each thought, as did some of the other mem bers of the committee who did not be come vocal, that Mr Roosevelt was trying to steal the show because it is a fact that the committee was on the front pages day after day during the investigation Some observers here are inclined to the opinion that Mr Roosevelt will be able to lull the recalcitrant members of eongress Into a kindly feeling to ward his program which is designed to draft farreaching legislation and that they will eventually hushup At this writing I am unwilling to agree fully with diat belief  One must not be unmindful in discussing tbis little controversy that it can become of great magnitude or it can sink out of sight easily My own thought is that Mr Roosevelts control of congress is not going to be seriously disturbed by It It is possible, however, that there are enough dissatisfied members of the house and senate to constitute a bloc which will speak its  mind collectively as well as Individ ually If that should come about, there will be fun    Every once in a while some one discovers some new letters written by  George Washington Washington Such a circumstance a Lobbyist nas JU8t developed The Chesapeake and Ohio railroad, preparing to celebrate the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the original corporation from which it came, has found a letter signed by General Washington which, authorities tell me, represents among Che first petitions ever flledwitb ik legislative body in behalf of private interests in this country In fact, if the Washington letter in question were to have been presented to the presentdav congress, undoubtedly those in opposition to the generals plan would have described him as a lobbyist H O Bishop, a noted writer and historian here, found in the Library of Congress that Genera Washington had sought legislation in the genera assembly of Virginia in behalf of the Jamestown company, a corporation which in later years was to become the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad company General Washington Interceded with the Vir ginia assembly on the ground that if  the United States ever were to become of consequence as a nation in this world there must be expansion westward and If there were to be expansion there had to be means of transportation The general, according to the Library of Congress records, personally surveyed a westward route over which the Jamestown company was to op erate That is the route now followed by the line of the present railroad, Disclosure of the Washington letter has brought again to the forefront the question of what constitutes lobbying before a legislative body There are those in this administration, the same as there have been In numerous preceding administrations, who accuse anyone attempting to present bis aide of the story to a legislative body of  being a lobbyist 1 believe, however, that the bulk of the people look upon that sort of thing as an exercise of the right of petition It will be Interesting to note how when the efforts of General Washington in behalf of the Jamestown com pany are generally known, his exercise of the right of petition will be accepted Surely even the most ardent re formers will not desire to call the Father of our Country a lobbyist e WMUtvnavpr uein V Safe ICU  VYvtf  Je6 vjjSj A , 1 i T O PLAN a wardrobe sans velvet it simply is not done in this day und age of smart dressing According to the modern dictate of fashion a daytime suit, or an afternoon dress, or an evening gown of velvet Is inevitable in the sartorial scheme As a matter of fact, It is not at all overworking the velvet Idea to include the trio in your collection of winter costumes adding, if you  will, a sumptuous evening wrap and for good measure you might throw in a velvet tunic and a floordepth velvet skirt, the latter to be topped with a glittering lame or sequinembroidered blouse for very for mal wear Just to show you how beautifully velvet takes care of the costume needs of every social event, we are presenting in the Illustration a daytime suit, an afternoon frock and a formal eve ning gown, each of which is fashioned of this flatteringfabric4he charm of the models pictured is that they are not extremehave not that fussy overOreased look which so offends good taste but are eminently refined and  meticulously tuned to proper time and occasion You cannot make a mistake if you choose velvet for your formal daytime suit for the jacketandskirt tailleur of velvet Is one of fashions pet enthusiasms for now and early winter The suit centered In the group is Just about as swanky as they make em The skirt is straight and narrow as skirts for the active hours of the day should be Its slit hemline shows only wben in action The quaint short jacket with Its long snug sleeves bespeaks the latest trend, but chiefest of all In the matter of chic is the white starched lace fixings which animate sleeves and neckline Heres a fashion hint If you would appear styleconscious to the envy and admiration of your neighbor Just add a touch of handsome stiff withstarcb lace to your velvet afternoon dress or evening gown, or what haveyou of velvet The very goodlooking dress on the seated figure will blend into almost any daytime social environ It Is the sort of gown that clears up all doubts of the woman who finds herself confronted with the whatshalIwear query to this bridge party or to the midday luncheon and musicaie After velvet for street wear and for social daytime activities, then what To which the very lovely evening gown Of powdpr hlne mat velvet,  pictured to the left, gives a perfect answer Take note of the shirring employed In the graceful skirt panels, for a favor ite pastime with designers this season is to shirr and tuck and smock velvet The offshoulder decolletage, which is  now in vogue, Is charmingly interpreted In this gown The flowers are made of selfvelvet The fitted shortwaist bodice tells a story of a new silhouette which is coming in Speaking of formal dress, preference is given to the longsleeved velvet dinner gown, the type which calls for a dressy little dinner hat to complete the picture C Watern Newspaper Union HAPPY and prosperous New Yearl All day the worda had been flung at Bob Cameron everywhere he went they echoed In his ears He wanted to shut them out, to  forget that a New Year waa beginning Last night in summing up the old year, he had come to the conclusion that he was an utter failure, that he might aa well discard the Idea of bo coming a writer Every story that he  had sent out had come back U waa true that a few editors had encouraged himone of the best known in the country had told him to keep on, that he had a fine literary style But none of them had kept his offerings Bob felt that the wisest thing he could do was to chuck the whole thing at the beginning of the New Year Yet down in his heart he knew that writing was a part of him that it would be an almost Impossible task to keep away from the untidy desk back In his den But he would have to do it a  man couldnt hold a girl to a promise, with nothing to offer her but failure Bob knew that Dorothy Trent was back of his resolution to quit the writlng game He loved Dorothy and she loved him They had been engaged since their senior year at

hard to Join in the small talk and fun of the New Years party that was going on If Dorothy hadnt been so insistent upon his coming, he would have remained away, for he was in no mood for frivolity And

step in the cooking process is a chemical reaction of some kind, or another, according to home economics foods specialists at Michigan State College When a cooked vegetable comes to the table wearing an unattractive brownish color, or a white cooked vegetable assumes a dirty yellowish oast, it means that the cook did not understand her kitchen chemistry Green vegetables are colored by a plant pigment which is called chlorophyll Different vegetables contain varying amounts of this coloring mat ter Chlorophyll has two and long cooking Green vegetables should never be cooked in vinegar If a sour sauce is to be served with hot green, it should be heated separately and poured over the greens when served When vege are cooked acids arc freed from the cells and these acids break down the green color The longer the cooking, the greater the chance for color de  Jstruction If the water is hot when   I the vegetables are put in, the cooking period is shortened The amount of water used in cooking is also important A large amount will dilute thr acids and protect the color Much of the green color is lost if the vegetables are steamed or are cooked in n pressure cooker The yellowish of grayish color soen in some cooked products is anything but attractive and is the result of over cooking Red plant plnvrL are, in  soluble in wiii  Tiut i why are not pared before choking color of red cabbage will viiari o blue, blue green, or purple if the cook is not up on her kitchen chemistry Acid intensifies red color, so the addition of acid is recommended Cooking red cabbage with vinegar or with sour apples will help it to retain its red color The yellow color of earros, squash, and sweet potatoes is not destroyed by the ordinary cooking processes, but over cooking will caus a slight brownish color to develop Pale looking biscuits or muffins that will not brown, show that the cook worked too hard and kneaded DENTIST I 6 b,scuita t0 much or stirred the    tw s r rjnlmoffins to mch

gave the rule that needs no further law or supplement All things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you do ye even so to them He gave also the unfailing business forecast, based on that rule With tbe same measure that ye mete withal it ebal be measured to you again Christian Science is again teaching and demonstrating the divine rules of lire which the Master laid down for the permanent

applicable to every manner of problem In the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures Mary Baker Eddy baa written p Itsl The term Science, properly understood, refer only to the laws of God and to His govern ment of the universe, inclusive of  man From this it follows that bust nesa men and cultured scholars have  found that Christina Science en hances their
