properly known as sipter, are laid down very rapidly, according to Margaret Undidey of the Yellowstone ranger staff, who Ims boon making a study of the phenomena In the park for the geophysical laboratory of the Carnegie Institution of Washington She writes of one of her observations A little wooden cylinder made expressly for measuring the rate of deposition was wired In place near the foot of Jupiter terrace This point Is easily 300 feet from the hot spring at the top and only about five feet above the main highway The water In tumbling down over tl e terrace s well aerated nnd cooled to a little above body temperature The block and the wire which held it In place were removed 21 days later, covered with a deposit of chnlklike travertine to a thickness of from onehalf to threefourths of an inch One might think that the water would lose most of Its burden of mfn era by the time it was nt so great a distance from the point of emergence, but the experiment proves that

Tivoll, has been discovered and is now being produced in a marketable quantity from a quarry near Sallda, 7a miles southwest of Denver J J Kerr, former owner of the estate upon which the stone was found recognized the material after he had made a trip to Italy to inspect the product of the Tivoll quarries Im mediately he began advancing his newly found enterprise The quarry on his property has been in operation periodically since 1880, but the product has been used only for Its lime deposit A local storage building was the first to bo constructed with It Shortly after its completion, however, Kerr died His estate was bought by Eastern capitalists who began marketing the stone on a nationwide scale Several of the leading buildings on both coasts, as well as through the Middle West, have been built with tlie Colorado product According to an official of the producing company, the deposit, composed of crystallzed lime or marble coming from hot springs carrying lime solution, Is

slow down rapidly moving machinery to about one twohundredth of Its normal speed Is the feat accomplished by C Francis Jenkins of Washington At the meet ing of the Society of Automotive En gineers here Mr Jenkins told of the chronoteine camera one of his lar est inventions, and how it may be an plied to the study of automobile en gines Instead of the 16 pictures a second, taken by the ordinary movie camera, or the 128 taken by the ultrarapid camera, uow frequently used in filming athletic events, the chronoteine takes 3200 pictures a second at Its normnl rate If desired, It can be speeded up even further, and tnke as many us 10,000 a second When these ure projected In the ordinary machine at the speed of 10 a sec ond the apparent speed of the motion is correspondingly reduced When taken at 3,200 per second, the reduction of speed is 200 times, and at the higher speeds it is of course greater Uses New System In the usual type of motion picture camera, the til in is stopped for eaeii exposure, so that it stops ond starts 10 times a second At such high speeds as thoseemployed tn the chronoteine camera this is impossible, for the film would be torn to pieces A further difficulty Is Introduced, because with a single lens extremely Short exposures would luve to be made Otherwise the picture would be blurred, Just as If the object Itself were close to the camera and moving nt such a high speed Mr Jenkins has avoided this diliiculty by providlg 48 lenses, set In the periphery of a 13inch disk, which Turns at a speed of 4,000 revolutions per minute The film moves back of this dik, so thai the Image formed by the lenses moves right along with the film In fact, the exposures overlap, as the exposure ts begun through one lens before that through the preceding lens is completed At 3,200 exposures a second each one is about one twenty five nun Ith of a second In length With rapid lensesused, and sensitive is easily sufficient for a ful negative tn bright

Boston Republic. • _ Among the colonial possessions, or, more correctly, dependencies, of H o l - land, there is a remarkable little state which, in its constitution and original costume of its inhabitants, surpassostha boldest dreams-of the advocates of woman's rights. In the Island of J a v a , between the cities of Batavia and Samarang, is the kingdom of Bantam, which, although tributary to Holland, is an independent state. The sovereign is, indeed, a man, but all the rest of the government belongs to the fair s e \ . The king is entiroly dependent upon his state council.

The First Grave at Cooperstown. V" BY, GUS HAMILTON. ( A t r u e S t o r y . ) w ^aTClty-Tritrane. - - "Hey thar, me bye, stir yerself beoffwid yer from he*e now," No. 497 of the New York City and " spoke police And as the idea flashed across his mind the second time he considered it with favor. Laying in a stock of eatables at a neighboring grocery with some change earned during $he day, he returned to the train and soon after was comfortably located inside tbe car that was labeled for Port Huron. It was a bright morning in April, 1881, that Andrew Husel and Herbert Chamberiain of St. Clair, Mich., were loading sevoral cars with stock, agricultural implements and a general farm outfit at Port Huron for their ranch near Cooperstown, Griggs county, Dakota, a place of 300 or 400 people in the midst of a rich and thrifty agricultural district, comparatively speaking. Both were energetic young men of well-to-do families. They were bound to rough it in the far west in hope* of realizing satisfactorily upon their investment in course of time. In other words they intended to ascertain if there was any virtue in the advice of the honored and lamented Horace Greeley, when he said. "Go we3t, young man, go west.'1 While thus engaged a ragged lad, genus roundabout, was seen to emerge from a box car on a side track nearly opposite, and walk in the direction of the gentlemen alluded to in the foregoiDg paragraph. As he approached the gentlomen" rested from their work and stared at him. He excited their curiosity, and true enough he would have excited anyone's curiosity. He was the picture of abject poverty and destitution. For two nights and a day he had ridden almost unceasingly in the jolting, uncomfortable box car, and was nearly prostrated from hunger and thirst. "Good morning, sirs," he said feebly, yet politely, removing his cap and crushing it in his left hand as a sort of an exhibition of his bashfulness, "will you -kifrdly toll me if this is Port Huron?1' "It is," was the response of the gentleman. "You look as if you were slightly broken up, my boy, what's the matter?" rejoined Mr. Chamberlin, after a slight pause. "Nothing much, sir, but I've had a long cold ride, and I'm not feeling very well from it, sir," was the la<Fs answer. "Where are you from?" —^New-York cityv^iiv^ I rode ML t he closed, and Jack became one of the party who were to operate a bachelor's hall on a Dakotaraeeh. The-idea of life in the far west, with such a tempting recompense for that which he would willingly Jhave accepted for nothing, was one of grandeur for poor Jack. He began to think that the bright side of life was bfiginning to dawn and that night when lie retired he declared him - self the happiest he had over been. Three years have elapsed and the seene^aflg-esto the great territory of Dakota. Within a few miles of Cooperstown is the large and well-cultivated ranch of the young men who left St. Clair in 1881. Crops have been abundant and profitable, and they find thai Horace Greely hit the nail plump on the head when he advised a. trip to the west. Andrew Husel has become a benedict, having married a sister of Herbert Chamberlain, while the latter and Jaik Burns are living near by in the old "bachelor's hall. Everybody is happy and. contented. The news of their success has been wafted home toSt. Clair, and Charles Husel, a brother of Andrew, has taken up his residence in their midst, and like his brother, has taken unto himself a wife, and it may be of interest to know that Mrs. Charles Husel was formerly one of Bay City's fair daughters, a" young lady of accom- J ^gLlffteleton ^ 1 ^ 6 r a ^e rhytina, that way in that car." "And with nothing to eat?'' "Oh, ye3, sir. I had some crackers force, adding presently "that "I 'low-^io J-whichI bought when I left 1 % mon ter slap'e on me bate, so be off wid yer, and don't let me see yer when I come back." * The guardian of the peace addressed his remarks to a poorly clad youth of fourteen } cars, whom ho had found asleep upon a dry goods box in the rear of Bates, Re^ih&rGooley's-store ofrj-*- silverdollar t o t b e b o y w h o Broadway. This lad was Jack Burns, the subject of this story. Tired out in body and mind, and utterly destitute of a home or even a bed, he had seated himself upon the box to rest, and with the intention of crawling inside at a favorable opportunity and, going to sleep for the night. Involuntary, sleep overcame him and not until the policeman's baton pounded loudly upon the, box, did be realize that he had allowed himself to fall asleep. ^"Pleaso sir, do notestrike me." piteously pleaded the youth upon awakening naif dazed and seeing the officer with club in hand. "I'll bo away directly sir," and at the word he alighted to the ground and stretched his weary frame, aa the policeman slowly moved awayy-making a threatening gesture; \ which was as much as to say that if the lad did not mind he might be gathered in as a suspicious character. Jack Burns, from/birth had resided in tho great metropolis and during all that time he had never "known tho hallowed inflnence/Of a home. Motherless, fatherless, and without a known relative in the wide, wide world, his life had been a/blank, and up to tho time we found him upon tho box npon Broadway, he had lived or rather subsisted,/ afl hundreds of other lads do in the great city of New York. • B u t life as a bootblack, newsboy and cipdss-walk sweeper had grown monototionous to him. He aimeft higher than /his companions arid were the truth / known, they would have found him one / ol God's little noblemen. He had a *1ll|!ge true heart, lofty aspirations, y^WUQdance of energy and pluck, and inv / -oocruptible moral sense. His ambition "But you must be hungry. Here is a dollar. Take it and get something to eat, «md when you get tkrough you can return me the change and help us to load some of the goods in payment for the amount you have spent," and with this remark he handed took it reluctantly at first, and expressing nis gratitude" said he would return, and then hastened away to appease his hunger and allay his thrist. "I am afraid that this is tho last you •will see of tho dollar or the boy," rem arked Mr. Husel to Mr. Chamberlin, in a jesting manner after the boy was out of hearing distance." "It may bo, but I thought 1 v, oul"d~ try his honesty." It's worth a dollar once in a while to test a person's honesty. If he comes back I will know that ho is honest If ho does not, then I'm a dollar out of pocket, that's all. But 1 believe that he has an hotiest face, if I'm any kind of a physiognomist. The poor boy looked as if he had'nt a friend in tbe world and had'nt a good square moal in .a-yeatv"- '— "To tell the truth I was favorably impressed with the boy's fac;o myself," said Mr. Hu3sel, "even if not with his . / / commendable for one in .his station in life. He had all of the ingredients that when given a chance to show themselves, produced a self made man, a man of honesty, integrity, and great character, a man worthy of the name. His desire was to become ajuan among •"wen, to secure that which he had never known—a - home> -And, as ho slowly fr Walked down Broadway with the grufF ommands of the police officer nging in his ears he thought of his estiny. "Oh, for a home, for a mother's kind»word, and a father's warm touch" h* sigodrraoA on he pushed through the crowds that were hastening homeward. Anirour later we find him at St. John park where a freight train for, Buffalo —andthe-west is being made up on the New York Central and Hudson river railroad. ."This, car," said one brakesman to another, "goes to Port Huron," and tacking a card upon the door, he loft for another part-of the train. Jack heard the trainman's remarks and immediately a thought struck him. Why not stow himself Tn tho car and rid** to Port Huron? Ho was tired of life in New f o r k city; it was the same thing day in and day out, and he was tired of it. The chances were that he could do as well in Port Huron as in New York,\ surely he could do no worse. outward appearance." The gentlemen then resumec1 their work, thinking if he would make his promise good and return with the change. Fully an hour past and yet no sign of Jack Burns. His benefactors had about given up the idea of seeing him again, when he was discovered close upon them, his face beaming with smiles, and in every feature cotfll be read. his gratitude for the kindness shown him.—He satisfactorily explained his prolonged abscence by saying that he entered a resturant in a distant part of the city and it was ^with some"difficulty _that he found his way back. Extending his hand to Mr. Chamberlin with the ehange from the dollar, he said: "Mister, I'm so very thankful to you sir, I'll help you load the cars all day." During the morning Mr. Chamberlin and Mr. Husel drew out from the boy his name, the history of his past life so far as he knew, and learned his great desire for a home. "So you want a home, do you," remarked Mr. Chamberlin during the conversation. "Suppose I make you an offer, would you accept itP" "I most certainly should, sir," was the quick reply "But I have not yet stated what the offer will be." "Neither do 1 care, sir.. ^Anything coming from you I will accept, trusting that it will be more* than I deserve, sir." "How old did you say vou were, Jack?" "Fourteen past." "Well, Mr, Husel and myself are going to Dakota, as you already know, and for a time we arc to keep bachelor's hall on the ranch. If you will accompany us there, I will promise you that when you reach the age of 21 years, I will give you 160 acres of land to be your own, in the mean time furnishing you with clothes and plenty to eat." "Oh, how good you are, Mr Chamberlin," interrupted Jack, overpowered with joy. So the bargain was then nnd there plishmenls and refinement. But what of Jack Burns? He is now a great big sturdy boy of seventeen years. He is an entirely different per son than when we found him asleep upon a dry goods box. Three years of farm life have transformed him into a fine specimen of humanity. During tho winters he attended the school, and beginning with the education he obtained by studying signboards of New York merchants, he has made wonderful progress. He can read and write, is well up in geography and mathematics, and has a better learning than many boys of his age who havebeen favored with public school privileges. On tbe ranch he has been one of the most impoitant hands. His benefactors learned to love him as a brother from the first day of their acquaintance, and he has been treated in social and business ways as a member of the family. Such good reports were sent to St. Clair about him that the old folks at home sent him last spring a colt, as a present. It was aT highspirited, handsome looking animal, and when it reached Cooperstown and was given to Jack the poor boy wept with gratitude. It is November, 1884. The cold west wind blows across tbe plains of Dakota, and the white-winged messenger has hidden the verdure-covered prairies. An event has occurred in the history of Cooperstown that will long be remembered, and which will go down into the annals of the place as one of the saddest and most heart rending. The angel of death has entered the Chamberlain ranch. Up on the hillside, off from the accustomed highway, can be seen, glittering in the sunlight, a solitary gravestone. The passing traveler stops there to satisfy a curiosity. Moving over a well beaten path to the mound, he read 3 upon its mark the following words: Sacred to the memory of • JOHN BUKNS, DiodOct. 5, 1884. Poor Jack. He came to an untimely en dTEro ugh IvrT accident -whi^h-oecur-=- red on tbe evening of Oct. 4. While leading his colt to water the animal reared, and kicking him on the head inflicted a wound from which death resulted one day later. And thus it became the lot of a New York City outcast,—faithful from the first,' truthful always, and with tho bright side of life just realized—to fill the first grave at Cooperstown, Dakota. Both F o o d a n d Light. "N. Y. Tribune. "Turn out the gas,"said the^naturalist ' 'and I will show you the latest thing in light: that is^" he added, "the latest thing in that line in British Columoia." As the gas went out the speaker unrolled several objects that had an "ancient and fish-like smell," and striking a match touched one. A moment later a clear, yellow light appeared, issuing from what looked like the month of a nsh ,th© candle end oi\ which was thrust linto a large bronze candlestick. "Yes," said the naturalist, "it is a fish and nothing else, no tube nor oil within, only the fish just as it came from the water. Take this paper and read a line and become one of the very few who can boast that they have read by the light of a dead herring " * Tha light was found equal to that of a candle, and reading by fish light was. aa easy matter. "It is curious," resumed the student of nature, "but I have got so that if I should see a man uie himself as a cand l e l shouldn't be much surprised. The use of a firh as a candle I first observed when on the north shore of British Columbia. 1 made a trip all through the country for the purpose of obtainholding three pints or more and filled with oil. The candle fish is allied to the smelt, and is known scientifically as tho McUlolua Paelficus, and in former days was found in tho vicinity of British Columbia in vast numbers. The mouth of the Columbia river is said to have been a famous place for them, but the great factories and the steamers have gradually driven them off, so that there are only a few places, comparatively speaking, where great numbers can be found. wa$*rilcd off about a< hundred years j ago, and I ran across other curious things well worth knowing. I had lived ija an Indian village nearly a week before 1 heard anything about the candlefish, and one beautiful moonlight night I was standing on the beach when I saw something that appeared exactly like the reflection of the moon, only it was in the wrong direction. I called tho attention of a native to it and it seemed to throw him into the greatest excitement. He cried out "Eulachon!' as hard as he could, and in a few minutes fifteen men were on the shore launching their canoes. Tharo was so much confusion that I couldn't learn what w'as the matter; so I jumped into one of the boats and off we went. There were two men iD each of the canoes but ours. One sat in the stern and paddled, while the other stood in the bow with a curious-looking instrument in his hand that I had not seen beforerit looked like~an enormous rake or comb, made of a piece of pine at least eight feot long, with a hole for a hand grip at—the—topy -tbe~4oweV^arV thinning off to an edge,.into which were driven'sharp iron or bone teeth from three to four inches apart. The use was soon evident; it was an arrangement for lishing. The ripple I had noticed on the water was an enormous school of fish, called by the natives 'Eulachon,' and to surround them now seemed to be the chief object. "The canoes were swiftly paddled out —until they were'all upon the outside of the fish—and then they rushed at them full speed, each manwielding his comb like a scoop, dashing it into the sparkling mass of fish that gleamed like silver, and at every stroke so thick were they that the teeth o the comb came up covered with impaled fishes. These were quickly jerked into the boats and another dash made, and so on, until finally the school was driven in shore. and tho excited natives leaped into the water and fairly scooped them into their canoes, where their vivid phosphoresence made them look like molten silver. Tho fish seemed so terrified a n i demoralized that they hugged the shore, and it the men had had a net instead of those outlandish combs, they could haye captured millions where they onlT* took thousands. The boats were rapidly filled, however, and-i A d m i r a l F o o t e a n d t h e G u n - B o a t s . James B. Eais in tbe Century A "In the railway train a gentleman who sat in front ol me, learning that I had constructed Foote's vessels, introduced himself as Judge Foote of Cleveland, a,brother of the admiral. Among other interesting matters fie related an anecdote of one of his little daughters who was just learning to read; After the capture of Fort Henry the squadron was brought back to Cairo for repairs, and, on the Sunday following, the crews, with their gallant flag-officer, attended one of the churches in Cairo. Admiral Foote was a thorough Christian gentlman and excellent impromptu speaker. On this occasion, after the congregation had assembled, some one whispered to him that tbe minister was" -illanri wouldJaa. jun&ble to officiate^ whereupon the admiral went up into the pulpit himself, and after the usual prayer and hymn, he selected as tho text John xiv. 1, 'Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also LP me.' Upon this text he delivered what was declared to be an excellent sermon, or exhortation, afterwhich he dismissed the congregation. An account of the sermon was widely published in the papers at the time, and came into the hands of the little niece just referred to. After she had read ic, she exclaimed to her father: " 'Uncle Foote did not say that right.* " 'Say what right?' asked the father, " 'Why, when ho preached.' " -What did he say?' " 'He said, "Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, "believe also in m e .

' " W h e n to Go t o N e w Orleans. Harpers Baiaar. Undoubtedly March and April are the pleasante"st months of the year to visit New Orleans. They are the nToHLh of roses, of mocking lards And of everything that is beautiful and delightful in tho far South. During these two months only light clothing, such as would be worn in tbe North in the summer, will be required, but spring overcoats and wraps will be needed in the evenings, antj occasionally in the dayT time when the wind is from the north. During December, January and February New Orleans weather is very variable. There is, of course, no snow, but there is much rain and dampness, mingled with an equal proportion of sunshine and warmth. Occasionally "northeners" send the mercury down to the forties, and even into thirties; and flannel underclothing should invariably be worn during these months. New Orleans is by no means a tropical city, nor are its houses so well adapted to withstand cold and damp as those of more northern tudes. Iati- Taken a t His W o r d . Ex. s It was one of the genius tramp. He knocked at tho door of a house, and when a kindly looking woman opened it, he said: / "Madam, I am very hungry.

The next morning early the boats were emptied on the beach, and the catch was handed over to the squaws, who took the entire matter of curing in hand. They seated themselves about their respective piles, and, taking sticks pointed at tho ends, rapidly strung the fish upon them by piercing them through the eyes. Then they were taken by children and placed in ! the smoke at the top of their sheds. There was no cleaning or scaling:. When thoroughly dried tho fish have a flavor of wood smoke. They are packed in large flails made of cedar bark and rushes of various kinds. They are then stowed away on a scaffol ding made of high poles, and are not touched until cold weather. The natives call them in our tongue candle fish, as they not only eat them, but use Jihem to burn, as 1 have shown you. Previous to this catch I had had no light, but afterward I luxuriated in a candle every night, and wrote my reports and took my notes all by the light of the 'Eulachon.' The little fish seem fairly bubbling over wittroiir so much so that I tried to fry . one, and turning away for a few moments 1 returned to find the back and other bones jumping around in a lot of fat; the flesh had melted. The oil is used as a medicine; it keeps them warm as fuel, gives them li^ht, and the flesh is a rich food in its dned1 state, and when the fish are eaten the bones are swallowed. To burn them they take a> pointed stick, insert it in the ground and make a slit in the other end, into which they stick the fish and light it. There is no trimming or smoking, and when the light is no longer needed it is blown out and the remainder of the fish is eaten. . Sometimes the fish are very abundant, and the surplus is all made into oil that is used for a variety of purposes by tho natives. In what 1 f "Tactr-" ' -' January Atlantic.

In all my political life I have never been kept awake five minutes by any debate in Parliament M NEARLY all educators are convinced that the imagination is not sufficiently cultivated in modern school methods. School children know but very tew words, have but few ideas, and express themselves with little fluency or grace. To remedy this defect the Lifo and Adventures of Ribinsen Crusoe has just been issued as a school reader, by a Boston firm. Notwithstanding its age, this wonderful story still holds its own in the hearts of children, and as a school reader will doubtless be a success. FROM New-Lebanon,Columbia county, N. Y., comes the story of the clesfr y a singular and miserly existence of 8* husband and wife. M*. and Mrs. Adams both died thero recently, their deaths occurring close together. The husband ^edTbrst, "He had for sQme^years kept in the house boards for his coffin. At his death the wife hired a man to make the coffin. He wanted $1.50 for the job, but the economical widow would only pay $1. She died scan after, and then on searching the house $35,000 in government bonds, three bushels of pennies and several bank-books showing thousands of dollars on deposit were found. It is said that for twenty years they had used neither meat nor soap in the house. disposition. They remainea at home, subsisting on small faro and small comforts, but multiplied and increased. The nation took from him as race all he could achieve and gave him only the principles of duty. The Negroes were asked to come to the rescue of the Union in the hour of its peril and 220.C00 fought in tha, uniform of Nation's soldiery. In the South 80 per cent of the colored men were unable to read the ballots which they cast and SO per cent of the whites were in a like condition. Slavery and rebellion wore minor quesr tions compared to what was before the country to-day. It required national actio^otiueet the vast requirements ef this imjfctant question. The colored men of tM 3Quthwere gathering that spirit of aeterainVtton- and resistance which may be controlled foha few years but which can not be controlled for any great length of time without education. The only remedyjwas enlightenment and that must be diffused .among both whites and blacks, not by charity but by the government. QUAKING EARTH. Two Andalusian Cities Badly Jhakcn.

The lady was accustomed' to paint a small vose bud or a single spray of flowers upon a cabinet card. She had never taken lessons in painting, but was gifted with so much talent that the designs sold as soon as finished. Mr. Prang, the ohromo man, saw some of Mrs:%Mtney^ work^n^ Wagedlieri"dredlS^part of the . . . a '__. , _ _,_:L_ A «as a flower designer at a salary of ¢r5 ,- or deeds of heroism that belong C00 a year, / with the exclusive rigferto: her talents. Mrs. Whitney has for the first few years completed one design daily. . SINCE the election Grover Cleveland has had babies and pug, dogs by the score named after him, but «11 those little honors have been cast in the shade by a New York Diamond importer, who has named the largest diamond ever cut in the United States, " The Cleveland Gem," in honor of Mr. Cleveland. The diamond was found a t tl e Cape of Good- Hope, and weighed seventy-eight carats. When cut it will weigh between forty and fifty carats, and will be valued at forty thousand dollar*. There is only one other^man in the United States who has been lucky enough to have a great^gem named after him, and althou^b/it could never brinsj forty thousand^if put.^n|sale, it comfort to gentleman in whose honor it was named bore the cognomen of Graham, and the world renowned Graham gem has probably one more to make people happy than the Cleveland gem ever will.—Peck's Sun. has brought happiness and more than one^ man. The ALBION W. TOURGKE delivered a lecture in Chioag6 recently in which he made the prediction that unless the Negroes were speedily enlightened, they would rise in rebellion against the whites of the South. He said that at present eight States with £,000,000 of white peopde, contained 4,000,000 of , colored people, and statistics showed that ' the blacks were increasing over the whites at the rate of one per cent a year^_JiniincU | pation did not give independence to the ilavs, nor did tbey possess a migratory Romano© and Bomanoo in Maine Although the daysare now nearly passed when good people speak disapprovingly of fiction, yet a large part of mankind oontinue to consider it as of less importance than other kinds of reading, •and the time spent in its perdsal as little Tjetter than wasted. This doubtless, is true, if by fiction is meant that class of books which deal in improbable characters and events, or those which hold up vice to be admired and virtue to be ridiculed; but books of this sort,' although far too numerous, are not the kind which fill the libraries of the state and are sold over the counters of mei chants. The Jarger part of our knowledge of the manners and customs of any period or people is derived from storids or romances' which deal in the little affairs of everyday life. We know how the people of Greece in the time of Homer Lived and worked, from the Iliad and Odyssey, and a much clearer idea of life in the middle ages can be gained from Scott's novels than from the pages of Hume or any other historian. Every nation has had its own local poets and novelists who have gleaned its peculiarities and woven them into a compact form in which they might be given to the world, and many a heroic oVM or picturesque incidentwbuld D*ve beon forgotten but for their labors. Maine has produced her share of the writers but thoiiterature of the state is not so rich" as it ought to have been, one reason being that so many of ber *ons and daughters have preferred tQlet tneir fancy wander in foreign lands rather than in scenes near at home. Mrs. Stowe has,, indeed, immortalized Orr's island; Whittier, Longfellow and a host of minor poets Have sung the praises of some of Maine's lakes, rivers and mountains; Kollogg has graphically depicted life in Harpswell and vicinity in the early days of its settlement; "Sophie May" has charmed the younger people with accounts of every-day life so like their own as to seem real, and other writers," more or less famous, have added to the list,- but yet the, mention of Maine does not call to mind one-half its beau- The details of an earthquake in Spain on Wednesday night, Dec. 24,have besn received and show that it was mnc a more disastrous than at first anticipated.

Many houses were wrecked and a numbei of inmates buried iu the mine. Many persona were killed and large numbers wounded. Those who escaped without injury deserted their homea and camped in the open squares and fields outside of the town. The reiugtes were huddled around huge bonflrea which were kept burning all night. the weather being colder than uaual and all having fled ao hastily from their homea that they negiacted to provide themselves wiih heavy oiothing.

The upper peninsula this winter will probably furnish three of the most important Michigan cases that will come before congress, viz.: forfeiture of the lands of the Marquette, Houghton & Ontonagon railway, the Ontonagon_& Brule railroad lands and the lands of the Lake Superior ship canal company. These corporations are powerful, and the lands in question are very valuable. Concerning the lands of the Marquette, Houghton & Ontonagon the sentiment here where the lands are is strongly in favor of their non-forfeiture. This is principally because of the purchasers who have^boughT^attds of the railroad company, and whose rights to the land would be nullified by the forfeiture.

Oa motion of Mr. Manderson a bil was passed extending to the port oi Omaha t'je provisions of the act relating to tbe immediat.« iransocrration of duti>«h]e gryofa. Mr. Blair called up the bill providme for a cammissioa to tximioe into the liquor traffic. He said ]t was a bill already passed four time* by toe San ate but had not been acted on by the House. The motion was opposed, but the bill was taken up and passed, 24 to 16. Mr. Hale from the committee on appropriations reported with amen daunts the House bill making a tempo r«ry provision for the naval service. He explained that the Senate committee had amended the thirty-one day bill by substi tuting for it the proviaiona of the regular annual appropriation bill for the fiscal year ending June SO, 18S5, precisely as the House had passed it last sesalon but modified so as to cover only the remaking half of the fiscal tha amendments formerly inserted by and has made itself unpopuTftrlfmiih|f the past ten years by its almost extortinate rates, which were of course accepted, as it was the paly road through the Marquette iron range. The thirty miles of the road were completed in the fall of 1888, from L'Anse to Houghton. Regarding the grani to the Ontonagon & Brule river road, there is much diversity of opinion, It looks as if each party was striving for the valuable mineral lands of the grant, with chances and rights about equal. The quarrel over this grant was what made possible the nomination of Seth Moflattof Grand Traverse to congress last September. As a rule the Ontonagon & Brule people are against versa. The forfeitute of the grant of the ]_Lake Superior ship canal company's immense and valuable lands is a matter of much greater importance than either of these two. Some of the most valuable mines, mineral lands and timber lands of the peninsula aro located upon their grant and the forfeiture question will be hotly contested. A. B. Swinefordof Marquette is the originator of this scheme of forfeiture, and has a large aud powerful backing. On the other hand the ehip canal company »^1», ^e^ °J to? year, is hidden in the Indian names of places l the Senate relating, to nonitors and steel pie glory in tho doods of King Arthur, but tbey have no better claim on the British hero than havo the Englishspeaking people "Of Maine on the braves of the Penobeeots and Tarratines. That there is here a rich although nnworked vein is seen in Longfellow's "Hiawatha," although that poet ohose for his hero a chief of a Western, rather than of an Eastern tribe. The names, which these early residents have left behind them, from Madawaska to OguaquU will loug serve as memorials—of their originators and may. at some future day, serve as a clue to a better knowledge of events, strange, thrilling or pathetic that transpired on the soil'of Maine, hundreds of years ago. oraisera being left~out. The bill, so far as amounts went, stood precisely on the basis on whioh the House has passed the original appropriation for the year, in that the Senate maintained its attitude, considering this year's repositions and not those of a former year. He said he would call the bill up tomorrow in sxeautiva session. The Senate then adjourned. DECEMBER 23. SIXATX.—Mr. Vest of Missouri, offered a eononrrent resolution providing that the eon* grisubttal record shall be an accurate trans* arlpt ot the debates, and no speech shall be published which was not spoken ia the Senate or House of Kepreeenuoivea, aad no ohatges shall be made txoept verbal correetlona by the author, and any speech retained tttr the correction shad he returned in one week, otherwise it shall be print* d from the original notes of the reporter.

The result was that in .eme cases eonlimited amount of cash. That the company has not fulfilled the conditions requisite to the continuation of the land parts is well known, yet it is powerful, and unless a land grarft forfeiture mania takes possession of congress their tight for the land may very likely be successful. These three grants and the question of their forfeiture are of great importance to the people of Upper Michigan. • President Cleveland will be accompanied to Washington by his sister, Mrs. Hoyt Mrs. Hoyt is the wife of a bank cashier-in Central New York, whose own home is so happily arranged that she is free .to preside over her brother's household.

MR. JBJMTOR:--Will you allow me space in your paper to ask whether an important period in the history of our tillage is not at hand? It is thought by some we bad better disincorporate, and a petition has been in.circulation to that effect, and been quite numerously signed. The principal reason for this action, as I understand, is the expense connected with the corporation proceedings. I am informed we are free from debt, and have in the treasury, in round numbers,. about four hundred aud fifty dollars. Our lockup and pound are built, and all necessary expenses incident to village regulations paid. We have been in operation less than two years; and I submit, whether, in the favorable condition of the treasury, we had not better try the experiment a little longer. If it is thought the council has been extravagant elect trustees upon whose purses taxes will draw heavily that they will be raojre. economical, and if some of the officers have not performed theii duties, nor lived up to the village ordinance, as we are near another election leave them out, and have elected or appointed those who will live up to their sworn duty. We have in our incorporation act a clause much more B9B BSE mtp+mmmmmmmmmrmmmB*m$mrmmmmm*mm •p> / x. to our advantage than most other villages, providing that the township shall be at most of the expense for bridges within our corporate limits; a provision, which, in all probability, should we surrender our charter and sometime ask for another, we would not be fortunate-enopgh to procure. I have been told by a number wbo signed the petition that had t!"ey known the c<»nditiori of the treasury and understood other things as they do now, they would have done \ery ilifll'mUly. Individually, in the fir^t placet was opposed to having the village incorporated, and when this /petition to repeal the act. was spoken of, thought favorably of-if, but upon ascertaining the-^condition of the treasury,,and being satisfied of the, veryiimall ailditi«>nnl.j?xpen$e it haslJ.Wi "been in the past, and is likely to be in the future and of the manv advantages that may irise from incorporation, I am free to say that dis-incorporation, in my opinion, would be a step in the wrong direction; and I believe many others who favored it at first are of the same opinion, and —prnhahly for the ftftma rpjmonq, I have no ^oubt enterprises have been commenced and capital invested that would not have been done had we not been incorporated. Now, should this subject be presented to the Legislature, and acted upon in accordance Xwith the prayer of the petitioners, iibw will the $450, the lockup and the pouna\be disposed of? is a question, that should be rationally and satisfactorily answered before so important a matter isN ajlqwed to pass beyond our control, besides will it not i>e placing our representative in an ombarrasing, humiliating and stultified position, to present a petitio to have an act repealed, and that with- )Ut good reasons, which he^labored with 50 much energy, less than two years ago, to have enacted?

All is a grist that comes to the hopper of a good local paper. Why, if you were to undertake to write a letter each week to your absent friend and tell hair the news that your loca) paper gives you would soon give up in despair. The supposed pleasure becomes tiresome, the letters grow shorter, farther apart, and finally quit. Why <he difference? Because with the newspaper it is business. People in a live town recognize this and tale pleasure in giving the editor the hews items you wouid never learn of.

But Florence waa silent. She only cart a beseeching glance at EM ward; but theriatter knew bis advantage too well.. He was aware that there was atill one moans of parting the two lovers, and did not delay using the weapon. "You have come at an unfortunate time, Mr. Roland," he said, with cutting scorn. "I shall be at your service for the explanation you will probably demand at any hour tomorrow; today I regret that it is impossible. At my uncle's urgent desire, my marriage with his daughter takes place this very day: all the arrangements for the ceremony are completed; the Justice of the peace will arrive in an hour. You probably understand that our affair must be deferred for the present." Roland had turned deadly pale; lie scarcely beard the last words; his eyes rested only on Florence. At last., with a violent effort he murmured, almost unintelligibly: "You heard. What have you to say? Answer!" Florence stood as if utterly crushed. For the first time she realized how unpardonable her weakness had been, and that the decision which she had regarded as a sacrifice to filial love was really an act of treason to the m.Mn to whom her promise and her faith were pledged. In the consciousness of this guilt, she did not even attempt to defend herself, but> instead of answering, burst into passionate weeping. "I know enough!" said William in a hollow tone. "Farewell!" A flash of triumph blazed in J3dward's eyes, but he'exulted too soon. The moment when William turned from her broke the spell 'Which had his death-bed, such e dispute cannotbe settled. So I yield to necessity and shall wait a more fitting season." Edward looked as if he were on the point of rushing upon his enemy. The icy contempt in Roland's words enraged him even more than the insults themselves, but by exerting all Ms strength of will, he controlled himself. ' " A more fitting season!'" he repeated. "You are right, Mr. Roland. I, too, can wait, and perhaps the hour for settlement -will come before you expect it."1 He. turned slowly toward the door. His game was lost; the prize for whose sake he had humbled himself to intrigue was snatched from him at the last moment, y£t he did not quit the field like a vanquished m a n . ^ The menacing glance which rested on the young couple ought to have warned them; it was the look of a man sure of his vengeance and his ultimate triumph. CHAPTER VI. In. the Enemy's Hands. As the door closed behind her cousin, Florence uttered a sigh of relief. She had feared an instant outbreak of the quarrel, which seemed at an end; at least for-tb&jQioment, but the last threatening words oC the two men had not escaped her notice. "What are you to do?" she asked anxiously. "What is the moaning of the concealed threats you exchanged with Edward? William, 1 beseech you—" "Say no more," he intemiplod gravely, almost sternly. "This U a niatinr which concerns us men alone. You hear that, no explanation will tnke place, at-present. Let that sumce." my regiment today, and God aloue knows when I *hall be permitted to see ,you again." At his first words Florence's features expressed vague anxiety; now she started In sudden terror. "You are going? You 'win leave me?" "I must. I gave my colonel my word of honor to return at sunset This was the sole condition on which he would permit me to ride here. I must keep this promise." "And leave me alone, exposed to the *full fury of the storm which Edward will raise. You mortally insulted hfro, flung the word 'fraud* into his face. He will avenge himself for Jt, and on me, if you are out of reach." "Then come with toe," said William, with desperate resolution. "Cast everything behind you and follow me at once. Our marriage has long been agreed upon. We shall find within our lines a justice of the peace and a priest, will perform the ceremony. Day after tomorrow—tomorrow even—you can be my wife. Then come what may, at least nothing can separate us." "And- my* father?" replied t h e young girl, with a trembling voice. "Must he, in his last hour, call in vain for his child? Must a stranger's hand close his eyes? So long as he breathes, my place is at his side." "You are right! I forgot. You are bp.und; but,'so, too, am I. You hear. I gave my word of honor, and where duty calls—" "Duty? To whom? Your first, most sacred duty is to protect me. I shall stay. I have not the heart to leave my father.- You will go, when, you see that I cling to you in mortal anguish? William, our love is at stake!" "And so is my honor! Florence! Merciful heaven! Hear me! Do not torture me longer by your entreaties! Do you not understand" that I must go, even though the whole happiness x\f my life depended on my- remaining!" She really did not understand. The spoiled, idolized daughter of the rich planter could not believe that anything could be more valued than herself. She had had before her eyes the dangerous example of a passion which ret aside duty and honor to gain her^hand. Only -air liuur before she had heard the confession from Edward's lips. From William she always hearcLof,honor and duty; and the old suspicion that there ""vras-a lack of love stirred in her heart. Aad—yet, her whoje,_s^uXjdrew her to QUE BUDGET OF FUN.

"Why are you weeping?" asked t&e loving husband. "When little Harry and I went down town today," she sobbed, "the conductor insisted that I must pay for the child." "Oh, well," he said, "I wouldn't let that bother me. What's a nickel to us?" "It Isn't the nickel," she indignantly replied. "It's the impertinence of the brute of a conductor in Insinuating that it is possible for me to be the mother of a child more than ten years old,"—Chicago Times-Herald. IT WAS THE LOOK OF A MAN SURE OF,HIS VENGEANCE. held the young woman captive. She knew that if he crossed the threshold she would lose him forever, and, eve he reached it, she rushed forward, clasping his arm with both hands. , "William, don't leave me so! You see that I was deceived, ensnared, and that.unfortunate promise was extorted from me beside ray father's iicU-bed.-Hast-wish has a powerful influence, but They gave me no choice,'and constantly told me you had given me up, until I believed it." The young officer paused; hl3-voice still sounded harsh and bitter," but at least he lingered. " — ' "Then choose new," he said. "Now the net that ensnared you is t.srn. and no one shall prevent your free decision. Choose whose wife you will be." "Yours!_ Yours!" cried Florence with passionate fervor, as'^he rushed into his armjp "Protect me, WiKinm! You do not know how they have tortured me!" "Yes, I see it," he said, bending toward her. , His resentment could not endure against this touching entreaty. Cl.up ing her hand in his, he turned reso-> lutely- to Harrison. My fiancee's explanation is sufficient for mo, and, I hope, for you a l s o . / A S •she has been the victltn of a fradd—" Edward started at the insult, ^nd was about to answer, but Roland arav'e'irnn no opportunity. "Well, call it delusion, ji the word founds better. The factTremains the same, and also the part which you have played In It You probably will not refuse to account toyme for I t , even though there must be delay. * in this house and at the hour when, the man Who alto was a father to you lies on Florence looked timidly at him. The' dark^loucl on his brow was not caused by the dispute with ftdwtu'd; she knew only too well what had occasioned it. "You are angry with me—still!'' she said; softly. . "No*_L understand that you were deceived by the intrigue, that, a father's P had expected my affianced wife to show more.resolution, more confidence. I, too, remained for month-*, with no message from you;.I, too, heard that you assented to the separation your -rather decreed: but I did not believe it for an instant, What urged me hither was merely the torturing uncertainty, a-vague presentiment of misfortune. Had I arrived a few hours later, I should have found you another's wife." Florence bowed hoi* head in conscious guilt. She had so dreaded this fate, yet had not had courage to boldly resist it. But for this intervention, she woirld indeed have fallen a victim to it. 'I am brave only when you are at y side,"'she confessed. "Do not reroach me, William! I was so utterly deserted; but now you are here again, and all will be well." He gazed'silently ;\t the pale, sweet face raised so imploringly to his, and _th€_repro9f'died on.his lips. He loved this tender, yielding creature, wiUT "her gentle unseltUBfttSSH, amOiifeW that she was capable of'any sacrifice as soon as a s^ang 4iand s»Med ^'vi directed her. "Then shoW me that you can be brave and steadfast vrh*>n only my love, not my presence, r>rptart3 you," he ieplied. "I cannot stay with -you as you expect; my leave of absence gives me only a few hours more. I must rejoin p i the man who seemed so hard and unyielding— she would not lose him. "William!" There was no reproach in her voice now-. The tones were sweet and persuasive. "William, do not leave me; you do not^lthow what I must encounter during the next few hours. My father will demand the fulf i l m e n t of my promise. If I refuse, the excitement will perhaps cause h-is death. Then I shall be.wholly in Edward's power, and you do not know him as I do. He has a fiendish will, which can overcome all resistance. During his suit I have often felt like the bird spellbound by the gaze of 4he serpent. It knows> that, it is going to destruction, yet flutters into its jaws. Have you courage to leave me to this power? I—fear it." With feminine instinct, she had touched the right chord. William's jealousy blazed up at the. thought of the possibility suggested. He, toot k^new-Edward, and was aware that Edward would make every effort to wrest from him the prize which he had just regained. Florence was not created for a heroine. To leave her now was indeed to loo.se her, Torn ffom the sheltering trunk, she would flutter—helplessly, like a vine in the storm, and become a prey to the tempest. Roland made n o reply, but-^a- terrible conflict was raging in hisr soul. Now, for the first time, he understood the warning of Colonel Burney, who had been unwilling to let him go into temptation. He had manfully resisted it, when Harrrsoirassalled him.; but it was very different to stand face to face with Florence, listen to her entreaties and see her tears. The young officer loved her with all the passion of his fourand- twenty years, and his strength threatened to forsake him. Florence saw the c6nfiict in his face, and, clinging to h i m i i k e a timid dove, she pleaded more and more fervently, while the,temptation stole nearer and nearer. After all, why was it "necessary that he should return today? There f was no battle in prospect; t>u soldier wtnild not be missed from his post. What if he should stay merely until the morrow? Much—nay, everything— would be decided by that time. Death was already knocking at tlia door, and, as soon as Mr. Harriscu '. passed from earth, his daughter would' be *free to follow her lover.

"He tried to kill inel" she walled. There were those that sought to comfort her. They pointed out the fact that she wasatill alive. The villian'a murderous designs had failed. She had not even been hurt beyond the shock to her feelings incident to the discovery of the fact that he no longer loved her a* of yore, when they walked the green fields together and he helped her over the fences. For of course even her comforters could not pretend that he loved her after he had made an attempt to destroy her life.' Still, as has been said, the attempt had failed. The intended victim Uvea, while the would-be asassin was in prison to answer for his attempted crime. This ought to have been reason for gratitude. Bad as the situation was, it m!ght have been much rworse. He might have succeeded in his attempt, and he might have been made to suffer capitally for his crime. Both extremes hfcd-fceen avoided. Nevertheless she refused to he comforted. She wrung her hands in grief. "I -wouldn't have minded it so much," she went on in her anguish, "if he hadn't tried to kill me with such an old-fashioned weapon as an axe. That sort of thing went out-long ago in poTTte society, and even- attempts at murder by throwing lighted lamps are no longer considered the thing." Here she paused to replenish her supp'y of breath, for her remarks had been delivered at a rapid gait. Then tsho resumed her querulous complaint, and after all there seemed to be much reason in herposition. ' "\Vhv couldn't he." ahe demanded, GLASOS3EE1 VELLING.

Bevelled glass Is not new, but it is now far more extensively used than formerly. Twenty years ago bevelled mirrors were comparatively rare; now they are common, and are <seen iu many shapes and s;ze«. Bevelled places, large and small, and both straight and bent, are Used for various other purposes. The process of g.ass bevelling is very simple, but the work calls for skill on the part of the operators. The plate to be bevelled goes first to the roughing mill, which Is a solid, heavy steel wheel about two feet and a half in diameter, set horizontally, and turning at a. high rate of speed. The upper face, or top of this wheel. is slightly rougheneTd. Suspended over the wheel is a big hopper containing sand, which is fed down through a spout in Mich quantity us may be re-i quired upon the top of the rough-fa^ed steel wheel. The" grinder holds the plate to be ground in his hands, with the edge to be ground off upon the face of the roughing mill; he shiits the plate along as the glass is" ground away. The expert grinder, holding a sheet of glass against the roughing wheel in this manner. wMll grind a true- bevel, with a perfectly straight line along ^ts inner edge, anil he brings the side bevels together with a perfectly true angle at the corners. In the roughing mill the bevel is wrought to shape but its face is rough looking and fee tng, in fact, like what it is. ground glase. The plate goes then .to the emery wheel, also of steel and set hoiiizon.ally. Suspended over this wheel is a ljUle hopper filled with emery, the emery feeding dow^i upon ^he wheei. Upon this wneel tne rougn face of the bevel as it comes from the nr.'.ghing mill is again ground, the pla.e being held, in_the sarr.e manner by a grinder, and ' the surface is brought neaier to smoothness. From the emery, wheel the plate goe«i to the smoothing ston> . which is" also set. to turn horizontally.

Wive sou learned to dread the approach of raat funnel-shaped" cloud that Is the herald of disaster? Here are a few hints that may help -f you some day to save your life audi property. Thev are Irserl on facts of which Prof. E. B, Ciumott, of the Chicago Weather Bureau, is authority: Don't feel that you must pen yourself up in an air-tight house. A ,cy. clone is lfkely to make straight for a tightly closed house and lift it from. Its foundation. However substantial the structure the confined air inside will invite destruction. Ou the other hand„ don't feel that you are necessarily doomed just because your dwelling is frail. Open all 'the windows. Be'ter still, open all th'i doors and window" both. When the tornado arrives the air will" be able lo pass freely through the house, and the building will stand. It is u-ele^s to at;empt to fly from the approach of a tornado. No one can predict, where a tornadoOwill s-rike. Make up jonr mind that it ia all a matte.- of chance, and don't* waste energy in i i ' ^ e "precautions." Cvclon{r* force'- are a mystery even to the elo.-es't pimlrnt^ of natural phenomena. All tl.;\i i>- known is that tornadoes travel fven wrst to east and are mo-t frecu^r.t. in the Northwest and -Middle \Vr:-t.

Medical statistics from Luzon show t h a t the death rate among the American soldiers engaged In t h e present w a r is r a t h e r lower t h a n among the troops stationed at Washington, Boston, New York % and San Francisco. Pedestrianism has always been regarded as a healthy-ferra-of-exercise, and the daily marches' In pursuit of the pugnacious Aguina^ldo have undoubtedly served to more *tnan counteract the supposed bad effects of a torrid climate. L o n g Lee, a Chicago Chinaman, has - The architecture of t h e smoke is wondrous, whether God with his finger curves it into -a cloud- or rounds it into a dome, or points it in a spire, or spreads it in a wing, or, a s in the text, hoists it in a pillar. W a t d k j j t winding up from the country f^artfplouse in the early morning, showing t h a t the pastoral industries have begun; or, seo it ascending frofc the chimneys of the city, telling of the homes fed, the factories turning out valuable fabrics, the printing presses preparing book and newspaper, and all the ten thousand wheels of work in motion. On a clear day this vapor spoken of mounts with such buoyancy and spreads such a delicate- veil across the sky, and traces such graceful lines of circle and semicircle and waves and tosses and sinks and soars and scatters with such affluence of shape and color and suggestiveness, t h a t if you have never noticed it you are like a man who has ali his life lived in Paris and yet never seen the Luxemburg, or all his life in Rome and never seen the Vatican, or all his life at Lockport and never seen Niagara. Forty-four times the Bible speaks of t h e smoke, and it is about time t h a t somebody preached a sermon recognizing this strange, weird, beautifuU„ e_lastic, charming, terrific and fascinating vapor. Across the Bible sky floats the smoke of Sinai, the smoke of Sodom, the smoke of Ai, the smoke of the pit, the smoke of the volcanic hills when God touches them, and in my t e s t the glorious-church of God coming up out of the wilderness-iike pillars of smoke. In the flrst place, these pillar's of smoke in my text indicate the suffering the church of God has endured. ;What do I m e a n by the church? I meain not been sentenced to work out a $100 fine, [ a building, not a sect, but those who, at the rate of $1.50 a week day? in' the , in all ages, and all lands, and of all behouse of correction.

No wonder the simple children of the east are often los% in wonder and amazement at the strange workings of western justice. A society woman who had" shown much kindness to a young collegian overheard him one" day S pgaklng : ofa lies as having a-monopoly of persecu her by her Christian name. Innocent in intention, ho showed himself inexcusably careless of the bounds between friendliness and familiarity, and was pever again invited to her house. F a r more innate was the courtesy of a comp a n y of young recruits who recently fell out of a military procession to salute Miss Gould at her house door. "She's Helen, our Helen!", they shouted, stamping their feet and toss1- i n g their caps, as they read her p a r d o n in her answering smiles.

T h e smoke of m a r t y r s ' homes and m a r t y r s ' bodies if rolling up all at once would have~ecllpsed the noonday sun, and turned the brightest day the world ever saw into a midnight. " W h o is this t h a t cometh out of t h e wilderness like pillars of s m o k e ? " H a s persecution ceased? Ask t h a t young man who is t r y i n g to be a Christian in a store or factory, where from morning to night he is t h e butt of all t h e mean witticisms of unbelieving employes. Ask t h a t wife whose husband makes her fondness for the house of God, and even her kneeling praygr by the bedside a derision, and Is no more fit for her holy companionship t h a n a filthy crow would he fit companion for a robin or a golden oriole. Compromise with the world and s u r - render to its conventionalities and it ,may let you alone, but all who will live godly in Christ Jesus must suffer persecution. Be a theater-going, cardplaying, wine-drinking, round-dancjng\ Christian,- and you may escape criti-^ cism and social pressure. But be an up and""down, out and out follower of Christ, and worldling will wink to worldling as he speaks your name, and you wilhbe put to many a doggerel, and snubbed by those not worthy to blacken your oldest shoes. W h e n the bridge a t Ashtabula broke, and let down the most of the carload of passengers., to. Instant death, Mr. P. P. Bliss was seated on one side of t h e aisle of the car writing down a Christian song which he was composing, and on t h e other side a group of men were playing cards. Whose landing place in eternity would you prefer—that of P. P. BHss, the Gospel singer, or of the card-players? A great complaint comes from t h e theaters about the ladies' high hats, because they obstruct the view of t h e stage, a n d 4 a lady reporter asked me what I thought about it, and I told her that if the Indecent pictures of "actresses in the show windows were accurate pictures of w h a t goes on i n many of the theaters, night by night, then it would be well if the ladies' hats were a mile "high, so as to completely obstruct the vision.

W h a t an exciting scene in India, when, during the Sepoy rebellion, a regiment of Highlanders came up and found the dead body of one of General Wheeler's daughters, who had been insulted and mauled and slairj, by the Sepoys. So great was the wrath" against "these murderers that the Scotch regiment s a t down and, eutting-off the hair of, this dead daughter of Gen. Wheeler, they divided ii among them, and each _one counted the number of hairs g i v e n / : him, and each one took an oath, which, was executed, t h a t for each hair of the murdered daughter—they would dash out the life of a bestial Sepoy. But as v;e look over the story of those who in all ages have suffered for the truth, while we leave vengeance to the Lord,,let us l>nd together iu one solemn vow, one tremendous oath, after having counted the host of the martyrs, that for each one of those glorious men and women who died for truth an immortal shall live—live with God and live forever. But as ^ a l r e a d y hinted in t h e flrst sentence of this sermon^ nothing ca-n be more beautiful than the figures of smoke on a clear sky. You can, see what you will rn the contour of t h i s volatile vapor, now enchanted castles, cow troops of horsemen, now bannered procession, now winged couriers, now a black angel of w r a t h under a spear of light, and now from horizon to hori zon the air is a picture gallery filled with masterpieces of which God is the artist, morning clouds of smoke born in the sunrise, and evening clouds of smoke laid in the burnished sepulchres of the sunset. The beauty of the transfigured smoke is a divine symbol of the beauty of the church. The fairest of all the fair is she. Do not call those persecutors of whom I spoke'the church. They are the parasites of the church, not, the church itself. Her mission is to cover th» tn*r\vt with a supernatural gladness. to open all the prison doors, to balsam all the wounds, to moss all the graves, to .burn up the night in the fireplace of a great morning, to change, iron handcuffs into diamonded wristlets, to t u r n the whole race around, and whereas it faced death, commanding it, "Right about face for heavenf" According to the number of the spires of the churches in all our cities, towns and neighborhoods, are the good homes, thg_jmrld_p_rpsperltle8> and the pure moral* and the happy souls. * It is demou*:rated tr> a n ^oueert wen t h a t it is not so ceruun t h a t William Cullen Bryant wrote "Tha&atopsls," or Longfellow wrote " H i a w a t h a " as t h a t God, by t h e hand of prophet and apostle, wrote the Bible. All the wise men in science and law and medicine and literature and merchandise are grad-^. ually coming to believe in Christianity, and soon there will be n o people w h o disbelieve in it except those conspicuous for lack of brain or men with two families, who do not like the Bible because it rebukes their swinish propensities. T h e time is hastening when there will be no infidels left except libertines and harlot^ and murderers. Millions of Christians ^ h e r e once there were thousands, and thousands where once there were hundreds. W h a t a bright evening this, t h e evening of t h e nineteenth century! And the twentieth century, which is about t o dawn, will, in my opinion, bring universal victory for Christ and the church, that now is "marching on with step double-quick, or, If you prefer t h e figure of the text, Is being swept on in the mighty gales of blessing, Imposing and grand and majestic and swift like pillars of smoke.

Whether the final conflagration will s t a r t In the coal mines of Pennsylvania, which, In'some places, have for many years been burning and eating Into the heart of the mountains, or whether it shall begin near the California geysers, or whether from out the furnaces of Cotopaxi, and Vesuvius, and Stromboli, it shall b u r s t forth upon the astonished nations, I m a k e no prophecy; but all geologists tell us that we stand on the Hdvftf a world the heart of which is a raging, roaring, awful flame, and some day God will let the red monsters out of their Imprisonment, and New York on fire in 1835, and Charleston on fire in 1865, and Chicago-on fire in' 187.1, and Boston on fire in 1873, were only like one spark from a blacksmith's forge as compared with t h a t last universal blaze, which will be seen in other worlds. But gradually the flames will lessen, and the world will become a great living coal, and that will take on ashen hue, and then our ruined planet will , begin to smoke, and the mountains will smoke, and the valleys will smoke, and the Islands will smoke and the seas will smoke, and the cities will smoke, and the five continents will be five pillars of smoke. But the black vapors will begin to lessen in height and density, and then will become hardly visible to those who look upon it from the sky galleries, and after a while from just one point there will curl up a thin, solitary vapor, and then even t h a t will vanish, and there will be nothing left except the charred ruins of a burned-out world, the corpse of a dead star, the ashes of an extinguished planet, a fallen pillar of smoke. But that will not interfere with your investments if you have taken Christ as your Savior. Secure heaven as your eternal home, and you can look down upon a_ dismantled, disrupted, -and demolished e a r t h without any perturbation. "When-wrapped in fire the realms of ether glow. And heaven's l a s t . t h u n d e r s shake t h e earth below, Thou, undismayed, shalt o'er t h e ruins smile, And light thy torch at nature's funeral pile." Francisco via Houston, San .Ajalftnlo.

Nine out of ten will answer the same way, Yet when persons have '• consumption they loathe all fatty foods, yet rat is neces- : *ary for their recovery and they cannot take plain cod-' liver oil. The plain oil disturbs the stomach and takes away the appetite. The disagreeable fishy odor and taste make it almost unendurable. What is to be done?

Although thct was nearly twenty-five yens ago, yet it stands alone today the one great remedy for all affections of the throat and lungs.

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

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

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

"And all the time when I whs stooping over a stitch would take me in the back, and I could not straighten up for a while. "I sent and got a couple of boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills and before I had finished taking the first, the stitch had gone and it has not been back since."

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

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

A giraffe which a huntsman3* rifle had injured began to cry. Sea lions weep for the loss of their young. Gordon Gumming observed tears trickling from the eyes of a dying elephant. And even an orang outang, when deprived of its mango, was so vexed that it took to crying. There can be little doubt, therefore, that animals do weep from grief or pain or annoyance.

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

A few strong, plain dictates had been set before Katherine as the law of her daily life; and she knew, beyond all controversy, when she disobeyed them. A' man has defined happiness as be!

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

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

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

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

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

" Her case had baffled the skill of some of the most noted physicians. One of her worst troubles was chronic constipation of several years' standing. "Shealso was passing through that most critical period in the life of a woman— change of life. In June, 1895, I wrote to you about her case. Yon advised a course of Peruna and Manalin. which we at once commenced, and have to say it completely cured her. She firmly believes that she would have been dead only for these wonderful remedies. "About the same time I wrote you about my own case of catarrh, which had been of 25 years' standing. At times I was almost past going. I commenced to use Peruna according to your instructions and continued its use for about a year, and it has completely cured me. 44 Your mtnedies do ail thmt you claim tor them, mod even more. Catarrh cannot exist where Peruna is taken according to directions* Success to you and your remedies," John 0. Atkinson, In a letter dated January L 1900.

Systemic catarrh is almost universal in old people. This explains why Peruna has become so indispensable to old people Peruna is their safe-guard.

The killing by extreme cold Is moat likely, to happen in a dry open winter, and new seeding*, especially late seedlings In which the plants are shallow rooted, and afford little cover, are most likely to be affected. Often old fields which have been pastured are practically destroyed, while fields which had considerable fall growth left on the ground are not damaged so much. In the ordinary winter, the protection afforded by a strong fall growth Is usually sufficient to prevent any winterkilling. Winter Protection Favored. It Is evident that when the conditions are too severe, winter protection, while It may help some, will not prevent some winterkilling by which a good stand la thinned or destroyed. Precaution should always be taken, however, to give such winter protection as may be afforded by the growth of the alfalfa after the last cutting. Too late cutting should be avoided as well as too close pasturing. In fact, it Is doubtful whether alfalfa fields should be cut or pastured after September 1. A light dressing of manure spread on alfalfa iate in the fall is often very useful in preventing soil Leuviug, eh . peclally in newly seeded fields, and this practice Is recommended whenever It Is possible. The dressing of manure is particularly beneficial to young alfalfa, not only furnishing winter protection, but also supplying some food for the young plants the next spring, and likewise forming a mulch which helps to conserve the soil moisture.

Hostilities are being waged between the moderately short skirt advocated by American designers and the excessively abbreviated frocks insisted upon by the French couturiers, writes a prominent creator, of fashions. The short skirt reaching barely below the knees made its appearance in Paris last year and many stories came across to us concerning the display of silken hosiery observed at the leading French hotels -where the fashionable Parislennes gather for luncheon, tea and evening parties. This fashion of displaying Freucb calves with a irankness that outfranked even the French was not confined to bizarre extremists, but was adopted by the upper classes, the descendants of the old regime, who still constitute the aristocracy of France that dwells in the neigborhood of St. Germain. When the races at Auteuille and Long Champs corroborated the evidence UJUL the short skirt was an established fact, American designers hesitated and waited to hear the death knell of this fashion vibrate across the Atlantic. Instead of dying young, it continued to grow in favor. The short skirt on this side of the ocean, which came into prominence several years ago, when a certain theatrical manager dressed his far famed beauty^chorus in the short-long skirts reaching eight or ten Inches from the floor, had been carried to such vulgar excess by any women lacking both That Is the aesthetic argument against the short skirt.

The well modeled physique of the American woman is similar to the Greek Ideal. It shows a gradual increase in the fullness of the leg beginning at the ankle and rounding into the calf. The French woman possesses a higher placed calf. Her legs are more like those of the professional dancer, which shows the biceps muscle rising more abruptly from the long slenderness of the ankle. The thinness of French legs makes the women of that country more adapted to wear the excessive short skirt than her American sister. For these various reasons I am not making my gowns too s h o r t My street dresses and tailored suits are eight Inches from the floor and my afternoon gowns are this length and longer, depending upon the line of the drapery.

Before adopting the short skirt a woman should remember that what may appear chic in Parts, a city of extremists in style, may look ridiculous in a small American citr.

A variety of gowns show the grace of the moderately long skirt. They are offered as an argument against the adoption of the exaggerated skirt by the woman who values the effect of the "toit ensemble" s s opposed to tfce unthinking woman who wants to be In style s t sny price, even unto sserlflctBg tft* grace of her flntt Coffee prices!

J.| | Writing to the states relations serv- £j i Ice, the former club member lays stress M upon the fundamental principles upon & : which agricultural clubs arc based. The boys' agricultural clubs have as a part rtigft Behcet E&yt, at Weils, Minru,. Surveying for Drain on School Farm. of their badge the four-leaf clxtyer with four H's, one on each leaf, indicating the equal training of the head, hand, heart and health. The West Virginia sailor says this is just the kind of training which makes a good soldier or sailor. He says: "Let us recall the training we were receiving from the agricultural clubs along four great paths: First, the head, which must of necessity be well filled with gray matter that will cause a recruit to be obedient and respect discipline; second, the hands, which are governed by the mind and do so much in military conflict; third, the heart, which must he clean and strong to make a soldier determined and unflinching; and, fourth, the health, which plays a very important part In making men efficient." All of these are qualities which go to make up a good military man. Also, the writer pays tribute to the club members in his slate who have been so busy helping in the great Job of food production at a time when ths farms of the country are short of labor. "They have met tLe situation square^ ly," he writes, "and victory is oura with them as a dominant factor in helping to secure it."

SynopBis.—David Elden, son of a drunken, shiftlew ranchman, almost a maverick of the foothills, Is breaking bottles with his pistol from hie running cayuse when the first automobile he baa ever seen arrives and tips over, breaking the leg of Doctor Hardy but not injuring his beautiful daughter Irene. Dave rescues the injured man and brings a doctor from 40 miles away. Irene takes charge of the housekeeping. Dave and Irene take many rides together and during her father's enforced stay they get well acquainted. They part with a kiss and an Implied promise. Dave's father dies and Dave goes to town to seek his fortune. A man named Conward teaches him his first lesson in city ways. Dave has a narrow escape, Is disgusted and turns over a new leaf. Fate brings him into contact with Melvln Duncan, who sees the inherent good In the boy and welcomes him to his home, where hi meets Edith, his host's* pretty daughter. Dave becomes a newspaper reporter. te£ CHAPTER V—Continued. —9— He was at the Duncan house earlier than usual Sunday afternoon, but not too early for Edith, She was dressed for the occasion; she seemed more fetching than he had ever seen her. She led the way over the path followed the Sunday before until again they sat by the rushing water. Dave Jiad again been filled with a sense of lieenie Hardy, and his conversation was disjointed and uninteresting. She tried unsuccessfully to draw him out with questions about himself; then --¾ one had only told me, when I was your age/ ahe said." 14Why do you tell me this?" he suddenly demanded. "Did you ever feel that you Just had to tell some one?" It was his turn to pause. "Yes," be confessed, at length. "Then tell me." So he led her down through the tragedy of his youth and the lonely, rudderless course of his boyhood. She followed sympathetically to the day when Doctor Hardy and his daughter Irene became guests at the Elden ranch. But before the end he stopped. Should he tell her all? Why not? She had opened ,her life to him. So he told her of that last evening with Irene, and the compact under the trees and the moon. Her hand had fallen into bis as they talked, but here he felt it slowly withdrawn. But he was fired with the flame of !ove which had sprung up in the breath of his reminiscence. , . , And Edith was his friend and his chum. "And you have been true?" she said, but her voice vvus distant and strained. "Yes." "And you are waiting for her?" "Yes, I am waiting. . . . It must be so." "It Is cold," she said. "Let us go home." natural elements which make a country or city a desirable place to live? I'll tell you. Climate, transportation, good water, variety of landscape, opportunity of Independence. Given these conditions, everything el»e can be added. Then there's transportation. This is one of the few centers in America which has a North-and- South trade equal to its East-and-West trade. We're on the crossroads. Every settler who goes Into the North—and It Is a mighty North—means more North-and-South trade. I tell you, Dave, the movement is on now, and before long it'll hit us like a tidal wave. I've been a bit of a gambler all my life, but this Is the biggest jack-pot ever was, and I'm going to sit in. How about you?" "I'd like to think it over. Promotion doesn't come very fast on this job, that's sure." "Yes, and while you are thinking It over chances are slipping by. Don't think it over—put it over. I tell you, Dave, there are big things in the air. Unisiasm for his city, and they intimated that a gang of professional land-gamblers was soon to perpetrate an enormous theft, leaving the public holding the sack. Still, there HJUM be a middle course somewhere. At any rate, he could use Conward's story about the land sale. That was news—legitimate news. Of course. It might be a faked sale—faked for Its news value—but reporters are not paid for being detectives. The Evening Call carried a statement of Conward's sale, and on that statement was hung a column story on the growing prosperity of the city and Its assured future, owing to Its exceptional climate and natural resources, combined with its commanding position on transportation routes, both east and.weat and north and south.

Whatever the effect of this conversation had been upon Edith, she concealed it carefully, and Dave counted it one of the fortunate events of his life. He had been working under the spurkQf his passion for Irene, but now The value of staying at school is stated in dollars and cents In figures recently compiled by the bureau of education and distributed to boys pnd girls throughout the country by the children's bureau.

Mt. Clemens, Mich.—The body of 3. Stanley Brown, wealthy Mt. Clemens young man, was found December 24 in his. automobile in a secluded spot on the Romeo plank road, near Dead Man's curve, about four miles from Mt, Clemens, with four bullet holes in bis neck and a battered skull. Brown, who was found by a farmer, had his hands on the steering wheel and his foot on the emergency brake, evidently having brought the machine to an abrupt stop before being shot. The bullets severed the spinal column. at one point, „two entering his brain. The only clues found are a wrench, lying in a pool of blood near Brown's body and a coat, evidently belonging to a machinist, as it had many grease spots. Footprints of a man were found leading from the automobile to a telegraph pole where the murderer apparently waited a favorable opportunity to make his escape. From the pole, the tracks could be followed in the light snow only a short distance. Brown was the son of the late John H. Brown, millionaire cigar manufacturer, who died about six years ago in Detroit, leaving about 1100,000 to J. Stanley. This was put in trust, settlements being made on certain birthdays, in accordance with the will. Officials are puzzled over the probable motive of the murder. Brown wore a two an.i on^-half carat, diamond nng, and carried $20,000 in securitles, also a billfold containing several hundred^ dollars in traveling ' A i U , ***!*. *., ;<R~ I T Chivalry could not allow that to pass. "Oh, not so very many!" said Da ve. "How many?" she teased. "Guess." "Nineteen," he hazarded. "Oh, more than that." "Twenty-one?" "Oh, less than that." And their first -confidence was established. "Twenty," thought Dave to himself. "Reenie must be about twenty now." "And I was five when—when Jack <died," she went on. "Jack was my .brother, you know. He was seven. . . . Well, we were playing, and I stood on •the car tracks, signaling the motordnan, to make him ring his bell. On •came the car, with the bell clanging, and the roan in blue looking very •cross.

But just at this time another incident occurred which was to turn the flood of his life Into strange channels. Dave had been promoted to the distinction of a private office—a little six-bysix "box stall," as the sport editor described it—but, nevertheless, a distinction shared only with the managing editor and Bert Morrison, compiler of the woman's page. Her name was Roberta, but she was masculine to the tips and everybody called her Bert. Into Dave's sanctuary one afternoon in October came Conward. His habitual cigarette hung from its accustomed short tooth, and his round, florid face seemed pufLer than usual. His aversion to any exercise more vigorous than offered by a billiard cue was beginning to reflect itself In a premature rotundity of figure. " 'Lo, Dave!" he said. "Alone?" "Almost," said Dave, without Looking up from his typewriter. Then, turning, he kicked the door shut with his heel and said, "Shoot!"

But * W d You Ever Feel That You Ju«t Had to Tell Some One?" before that things hadn't been—well, just as good as they might in our .home. . . . They've been different since." The shock of her words brought him upright To him it seemed that Mr. and Mrs, Duncan were the ideal father and mother. It was Impossible to associate them with a home where thing* "hadn't been Just as good as they might." But her half-confession left DO room for remark. "Mother told me," she went on, after a loaf silence, and without looking e* aim. *A few years ago, 'If some yon'd die a tiiilllo-uhl;'.. But It !*•»'* work that makes men rich. Ever think of that?" "If a man does not become rich by work he has no right to become rich at all," Dave retorted. "What do you mean by that word 'right,' Dave? Define it." "Haven't time. We go to press at four." "That's the trouble with fellows like you," Conward continued. "You haven't time. You stick too close to your jobs. You never see the better chances lying all around. Now suppose you let them go to press without you today and you listen to me for a while," Dave was about to throw him out when a gust of yearning for the open spaces swept over him again. It was true enough. He was giving his whole life to his paper. Promotion was slow, and there was no prospect of a really big position at any time. He remembered Mr. Duncan's remark about newspaper training being the best preparation for something else. With sudden decision he closed his desk. "Shoot I" he said again, but this time with less ImDatience. "That's better." said Conward. "Have you ever thought of the future of this town?" "Well, I can't say that I have. I've been busy with its present/* "That's what I supposed. You've been too busy with tbe details of yotrr little job to give attention to bigger things.

We'll say Alkali Lake Is a railway station where lots go begging at a hundred dollars each. In drops a well-dressed stranger—buys ten lots at a hundred and fifty each— and the old-timers are chuckling over sticking him. But Ln drops another stranger and buys a block of lots at two hundred each. Then the oldtimers begin to wonder if they didn't sell too soon.

The town council meets and changes the name to Silver City—having regard, no doubt, to the alkali ln the slough water. The old-timers, and all that great, innocent public which is forever hoping to get something for nothing, are now glad to buy the lots at five hundred to ten thousand dollars each, and by the time they've bought it up tbe gang moves on. It's the smoothest game in the world, and every community will fall for it a t least twice. . . . Well, they're here.

We seemed to be suffering from much misapprehension about France It was business as usual in Paris, and anyone who fancied that New York might become the world style center had another thought coming

attempt of reversing the pol icy of paying farmers for not doing and rewarding them for doing I find that the department of agriculture doesnt go that far Officials there describe it rather, as paying farmers less ior not doing but assuring them benefits for taking part in a constructive program This is the way one member of the Triple A tells the story Down in Alabama theyre trying, on a statewide basis, an experiment in balanced farming that may eventually be a pattern for farm programs in other areas Its known as the Alabama Plan and its simply a plan based on good farming practices, which over a fiveyear period, provides for building up the soil and otherwise improving the individual farm to the point where it becomes a productive unit The Alabama plan is not complicated It is part of the AAA farm program It carries further than ever before the conservation work done under the AAA program As under previous AAA programs, farmers will receive conservation payments for planting within their acreage allotments of special crops, such as cotton, tobacco, peanuts, wheat, and potatoes However, under the socalled Alabama Plan, in operation for the first time in 1941, full payments made to Alabama farmers will be contingent upon carrying out of certain good farming practices Planned Conservation The difference between the Alabama Plan and the general conservation program is about the difference between going into a cafeteria and picking out a dish or two that you especially like and sitting down to a wellbalanced meal Heretofore, farmers in Alabama and other states have had available to thesh certain practices which they could use to earn the payments available under the farm program They have used many of these but naturally they have not always picked out the best combination of practices for the land That was the cafeteria method of soil conservation Under the Alabama Plan, the conservation program worked out for each farm represents a balanced type of farming Thats the wellplanned meal type of conservation Not only is the conservation well planned for each year, but it is worked out for five years in advance The Alabama Plan, like most parts of the farm program, came from suggestions from farmers themselves who have observed the operation of the farm program and made suggestions on it from time to time Alabama farmers have felt the need for more planning and more balance in their conservation work and the AAA program has been adapted to make it possible for this statewide experiment in conservation to be undertaken beginning in 1941 The Alabama farmers who want this type of program believe that a farmer who does not take care of his soil should not receive the full benefits under the farm program Requirements of Plan Heres what the Alabama farmer has to do to avoid deductions in his conservation payments for 1941 1 Grdw erosionresisting crops each year on an acreage equal to at least 25 per cent of his cropland 2 Properly terrace all cropland in the farm having a slope in excess of 2 per cent 3 Establish or maintain perennial soilconserving crops on at least one acre for each 15 acres of cropland 4 Establish or maintain permanent pasture on at least one acre for each 15 acres of cropland Requirement No 1 has to be carried out each year, of course, but numbers 2, 3, and 4 are to be done over a fiveyear period Onefifth of the requirements under points 2, 3, and 4 must be carried out each year Deductions in the farmers conservation payments will be made on the basis of 5 per cent of the payment for each 10 per cent by which he fails to carry out the 1941 requirements The Alabama Plan is resulting in more cooperation among farmers in many cases For example, operators of small farms are not able to Farm Credit WASHINGTONThe volume of financing through the Farm Credit administration was larger in 1M0 than tor several years past Farmers obtained 400,UOaeoO of credit during the first nine months of the year compared to 416,000,000 in the cor period of 1939 A furmay also he ex Hums Hour Commentator maintain heavy equipment required in terracing However, groups of farmers can form an association to buy this equipment, and can pay their share on the basis of the amount of time they use it That is the storytold from the standpoint of the Triple A You are better able to judge its merits than I am Of course, if you have any views you would like to express, I would be only too glad to hear them President Announce Loaned Aid to Britain It was late as I hurried across the paved space in front of the executive offices The waiting room was jammed Overcoats were piled high on the huge mahogany table presented to the President by the Philippine General Aguinaldo We were soon crowding through the inner waiting room and across the hall and into the Presidents oval office The moment I had wormed my way forward and looked at the President, I was sure he had something important to say He wasnt laughing and chatting with the men pushed close around his desk He looked very serious Finally the last reporter had come in The President began to speak He spoke slowly, deliberately informally but seriously, announcing his longawaited plan for lending or leasing implements of war to Great Britain Because I had to broadcast almost immediately afterward I was kept busy taking notes, but as I wrote down the words that would be history some day, I suddenly felt that nothing was real around me Roosevelt Tells Story It couldnt be that the other side of the world was burning upthat a proud nation which claimed to rule the Seven Seas was begging for helpthat I was actually writing down on a piece of copy paper a gigantic plan to bring that help It was simply too big to grasp How could any one human being hope to sit down and draw up a scheme that involved these millions of people, that must answer the crisscross, conflicting hopes, beliefs, demands and desires of half the globe my pencil kept on forming words and suddenly I saw they were writing down a simple little anecdote about a lot of men in a smoking car making bets This seemed still more unreal but it is the Presidents way of trying to illustrate frightfully complicated things with very simple, everyday experiences He told how, when he was the young assistant secretary of the navy back in 1914, war in Europe was suddenly declared and he was hurrying back to Washington In the smoking car with him were a number of brokers and bankers the best economic brains of the country the President called them They were saying that no war could last long The bankers could stop it in two and a half months for no nation could fight long without money in the bank Money Not Essential This, the President said, showed how wrong the accepted beliefs were History shows, he said, that no country ever lost a war because of lack of money And then he went on describing his plan for lending or leasing implements of war to Great Britain instead of lending money He had no notes before him but it was plain he had spent plenty of thought on his plan, that it was the result of study and thought Whatever the merits of the plan may be, its one merit seemed to be this it stilled for a while at least, something that came very near hysteria in Washington and what might have been hysteria in England, too For while it did not increase by one machine gun bullet, immediate aid to Britain, it promised them economic cooperation and restored their morale And it stilled, too, the angry demands of the pressure groups in this country which would push us right up to the very verge of war They could hardly complain if London was satisfied And yet, on the other side of the picture, it did not even imply a single immediate act which would bring us any nearer the war then we were at the moment for the President made it clear that congress would have to pass upon it He also made it clear that it would not be presented to the old congress for any hasty action It must await the convening of the new congress when you folks have had time to think it over The plan may be, as some of the critics say, the most bald of subterfuges It may be utterly impractical But it has postponed rancorous discussion and discord in this country which would have served as aid and comfort to the totalitarian nations which seine with joy any ex ample of the lack of unity in a YOUR costume may be the very pink of perfection, your accessories nothing less than glamorous, but no matter how smartly appareled, unless you are correctly corseted in the proper foundation garment to make your figure conform, so far as is possible, to the slim svelte lines that current fashion de mands, you will fail to qualify up to the mark in general appearance Ladies, look to your corsetry Soon it will be time to take up the matter of new clothes for spring Start the program right with a carefully selected foundation garment wardrobe and see what a difference it makes when you come to be fitted in the new frocks and suits The long stemmed American beauty glorified by United States designers in their first season of independence from Paris

corrected, in conference with your fav corsetiere In analyzing your ure defects and virtues, remem that the side and back views are even more important than the front, because they show your posture and distribution of weight It is especially important this season that your bustline be properly contoured The tendency in current costume design is to accent top interest in moulded and draped and swathed treatments The new classic daytime wools with their suave simply tailored blouse tops make expert corsetry imperative This is especially true of brassieres which must be meticulously selected Remember that unless you wear some type of pantie girdle and brassiere under your slack suits, swimsuite, tennis, golf or riding clothes, your arment tion your figure cannot look attractive It is also important that you have two identical foundations for everyday wear to keep your figure moulded properly and comfortably Two foundations worn alte lately and kept fresh and in good repair may be expected to hold their original lines and do their job of figure control appreciably longer than two purchased successively One foundation for formal wear is a wardrobe necessity because the figure needs extra help to look its best under formal gowns, which are more fitted in line than daytime styles New foundations for evening offer several outstanding features Brassieres are cut to give more accent to the bustline than for daylight hours, and have many clever tricks to suit the straps to the various decollete lines Corsets and all inones are cut longer in the skirt to prevent thigh bulge

Valley Viewed at Important Key to Economics RIO DE JANEIROSanitation, colonization and increase in productionthose are the three major elements in President Getulio Vargas scheme to remake the Amazon valley Back from an airplane tour which took him far into the jungle Coun try the little nriHnt HP Amazon district as a region of im mense potential wealth, of tremendous importance if Brazil is to go ahead economically He has called a conference of Amazon nations Venezuela, Colom Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia and Bra Jgjlto consider their common inter He has invited the United technical experience into Brazilian rubber, Ford has had one setback in his experiments he had to move his main plantation when his first locale proved unsuitable So far his output has been unimportant, but within a year or two the Ford people hope to begin serious production The Amazon country also exports nuts, including the famous Brazil nut some woods, animal skins and some fibers A major task in development of C tes Ao attend development of the Amazon sin and cooperation of the Amasjbn countries, he hopes we will increase our reserves for defense and ur capacity to resist any attempt at absorption Vargas does not say what nation r nations might make such an attempt, but it is clear he has his eye on the European and Far Eastern struggles The story of the Amazon is a story of rubber Back in 1910, when the United States manufactured only 200,000 automobiles, Brazil produced practically all the worlds rubber 62,000 of the 70,000 tons But Brazilian rubber was wild rubber, gathered by natives in oldfashioned ways The British had found rubber could be raised economically in the Dutch East t Indies and the Malay peninsula This new method was far more efficient than wild rubber production Ford Has Plantation By 1914, cultivated rubber production exceeded that of wild rubber By 1920, cultivated rubber production was 320,000 tons, and wild pro duction 40,000 the United States consumed 235,000 tons In 1937, the picturea gloomy one for Brazilwas this Cultivated rub ber, 1,107,062 tons Brazilian rubber, 16,286 tons Rubber had been worth 3 a pound in 1910real black gold But when production

knotty financial problems, according to the quipu on exhibition in the University of s North Carolina library The quipu is a knotted record of the Inca civilization, and, although anthropologists assume it might have pertained to financial problems, they admit it might mean almost anything It consists of 31 different types of small ropes of a dozen different colors and no two alike, containing a hundred different kinds of knots Each knot is supposed to mean something, but just what is a mystery The quipu was donated by John Wise of New York, collector of Peru vian art objects, and is valued at 500 It resembles nothing so much aa a Boy Scouts collection of knots, although on close examination it is apparent such knots are unknown today laria The germcarrying mosquito breeds in the swamp

little people of the Green Forest, the Green Meadows and the Smiling Pool for a long time Where had Old Man Coyote come from There was a time when they hadnt known that he existed Then one day they discovered that he had come to the Green Meadows to make his home, and he had been there ever since There had been a great deal of wondering about him, and where he had come from, but no one felt well enough acquainted with him to ask him so personal a question The truth is no one un1I should like to hear more about it, Sammy once more ventured less it was Buster Bear, dared ask him, and Buster Bear wasnt interested Sammy Jay had been one of those who had wondered a great deal about Old Man Coyote Now, usually Sammy is not at all bashful or the least bit backward about prying into other peoples affairs, but there was something about Old Man Coyote that always had discouraged him Today, however, it was different He had come over to tell Old Man Coyote that all the little people of the Smiling Pool and the Green Meadows had given him a vote of thanks for leading Bowser the Hound into one of the terrible traps set by Farmer Browns Boy, and so showing him how dreadful traps are When Old Man Coyote had found out Getting Ready for Winter what Sammys errand was he was so surprised that he hardly knew what to say, and quite suddenly felt that they were going to be friends It was then that for the first time Sammy dared to ask what he had wanted so long to know Mr Coyote, said he, speaking in the politest manner, youve been a neighbor for a long time, and yet somehow Ive never felt really acquainted with you Why, do you know I dont even know where you came from Old Man Coyotes eyes twinkled You have plenty of company, 1 guess, said he Would you really like to know I certainly would, replied Sammy promptly I would feel a whole lot more as if we really were friends Old Man Coyote stretched himself out comfortably, and a faraway look came into his eyes For a long time, or what seemed like a long time to impatient Sammy Jay, he didnt say a word, but continued to look and look off into the distance It was quite as if he saw something there Sammy looked, but he couldnt see anything unusual He began to think that Old Man Coyote had forgotten that he was waiting and he had just started to clear his throat in order to remind Old Man Coyote when the latter spoke I came, said he, from the West from the great, wide, wonderful West Oh, said Sammy, because he didnt know what else to say He scratched his head in an uncertain sort of way, and then he ventured another question Iseris the West very far away Old Man Coyote didnt seem to hear He was still gazing way, way off, and there was a soft dreamy look in his eyes which made them almost gentle All the fierceness and the sly look was gone, and somehow it was hard work for Sammy to believe that it was really Old Man Coyote he was looking at At last Old Man Coyote sighed It was a long, deep sigh Yes, I came from the West, the great, wide, wonderful West, he repeated It must be a long way from here, ventured Sammy It is, replied Old Man Coyote II should like to hear about it, Sammy once more ventured, and he was very polite So you shall So you shall exclaimed Old Man Coyote, and straightway began to tell Sammy Jay all about the land he came from Associated NewspapersWNU Service Vaccine for Measles Has

declaration by the President of a national emergency which would bring the near equivalent of a military dictatorship A further step would be our actual militavy involvement in the war we are already in the war financially under which the President, by the ,S6 mobilization plan, could commandeer manufacturing plants, fx prices, regulate sale and distribu tion of commodities, and even prod vrie a system of licenses for organizations or persons engaged in manuJ fadturing, mercantile, or publicser vice industries Roy 0 Woodruff, Michigan representative to Congress, has even hinted that the bogging down of the defence program was a political conspiracy to create a public demand for the enactment by congress of the 1936 war dictatorship plan This may appear to be far fetched However, the question does remain Will management and labor work together together under a democratic peacetime economy to a degree grater than ever before The alternative may be compulsory regimen tation by Washington the ultimate goal of national socialism Defence But Not War Despite the vast astronomical spending of federal money in M3ch igan because of arms awards, the sentiment of Michigan residents is divided as to whether we should continue a policy of isolation under nat ional defense or participate actively with men and arms in defense of Brtain It is reported reliably that the preponderant opinion among the Polish element in Detroit is against allout aid Even Detroits 100,000 Cana dianborn residents are not united on this point As for labor, both C I O and A F L leaders oppose the sending of man power overseas Canal ZoneI was told that the fastest airplane there ws capable only of making 140 miles an hour Senator Arthur Vandenberg has asked Mr Knudsen to make public full information on the progress of our national defense program In this period of emergeney the new governor of Michigan, Murray D Van Wagoner, may yield a dis ciplining influence He is capable of strong leadership he has the confidence of a substantial majority of Michigan citizens Thus in our present national crisis one which is also the crisis of Britain fate has decreed that Michigan piantf and

Today, Wednesday, a new year is ushered in and we always wonder what the days and weeks may bring forth, not only for ourselves bat oar readers. For some it will contain joy and gladness while others will be called upon to pass through sorrow. Our types as they are put together each week will chronicle the events as they come and go and in the end will he a history of the events as they have taken place in our village. The past year has been one of general suecess and moderate prosperity anjd while nature has a great deal to do with success and failure still our own individual efforts have the most to .do with our success. W^-eamae-k sit down and wait for business to come to us but the man who succeds the coming year must brush off the cobwebs and "get afte^ 'em." The aim of the DESPATCH will be the same (with and endeavor to do better) to get all the news that is fit to publish. We shall try and show no favor out treat all alike. If you do not see your name in print as often as you do someone else's, please remember that we can not get all of the news without some help from you. If you know any news please be kind enough to hand it to us or send it in and this will help us make the DISPATCH better in 1902 than in the previous year.

The Columbian Dramatic Club of St. Mary's church made essay in the values of drama seldom attempted by amateur companies. The play "Held by the Enemy" by Wm. Gillette gives or^portuniiy for every line of passion from the deeply sentimental to the liveliest kind of Comedy. To mention each detail would require too innch 3pace, but the character protrayal of the leading parts demands recognition. The tender loving nature of Rachel was admirably acted by Mrs. James A. Greene showing forth the highest form of the heroic in her plea for her cousin's life in the 2nd act. James A. Greene in that intense strife between love for Rachel and duty to his country, made a decided hit. Lincoln Smith often has proven to be a deep student of the Histrionic art, and his ringing speech at the close of the 2nd act made a deep impression. Rill Monks as the Special for Leslie's proved his ability in comic lines. His brilliant sallies kept the audience in good humor. The part of Susan was not acted but Susan lived, moved and talked in the person of Mae Moran. Lela Monks' clear enunciation of her lines was thoroughly enjoyed. The personification of Surgeon Fielding by Dr. J. W. Monks was a creation of art John Tiplady, James FiUsinimons, Casper Culhane and Bert Roche gave evidence in their minor parts of great skill, proving that no part is small that is weil performed. When Rufus made the ofler to sacrifice himself for his master, the silence of the audience was the greatest tribute to the acting of Guy Haney. The guards were ever alert and always in the proper place. The pleasing, singing of Miss Emma Reason and Mae Moran Will Kennedy and L. E. Smith, the duets of Frank Bowers and Mabel Sigler and of Kate Ruen and Henry Isham rendered the evening of the play one to b» long remembered by large and appreciative audience. We thank the dob for their efforts and hope they will oome again. Proceeds 990. There are Five Boys How. Hanging .onder the mantle of Bey, and Mrs. O. 13.

Y.) Washington, Dec 29.—While this discourse of Dr. Talmage rebukes arrogance, it encourages humanity and sfcowe howthe evening of Ufa may be brightened. The text is I Kings « , IXt "Let not him that girdeth on his harness boast himself as he that putteth It off." The text makes a comparison between a man enlisting for some war and a veteran returning, the one putting on the armor and the other puttins it off. Benhadad, the king of Syria, thought be could easily overcome the king of iaraeL Indeed, the Syrian was so sure •of the victory that he spread an antetellum banquet There were in ail thirty-three kings at the carousal, and their condition is described in the Bible not as convivial or stimulated exaltation, but drunk. Benhadad sends oficers over to. the king of Israel demanding the surrender of the city, saytag, "Thou shalt deHvernme-thynrtt^ > < * * • >v- *: ft*:- IT**' '. y< • id' - A.- i •¥• I and thy gold and thy wives and 'flay children," and afterward sends ' Jltbyer officers, saying that the palace •f thekisg wiii he searched and everything Benhadad wants he will take without /asking. Then the king of Israel called a council of war, and word is sent hack to Benhadad that his unreasonable demand will be resisted. Then Benhadad sends another message fta the king of Israel, a message full /-of arrogance and bravado. Then the .king of Israel replied to Benhadad, < jyractically saying: "Let me see you do what you say. Tou huzza too soon. 'Let not hint that girdeth on his harness boast himself as he that putteth it An avalanche of courage and rlght- •eousness, the Israelltish army came on Benhadad and his host. It a hand to hand fight, each Israel- r tte hewing down a Syrian. Benhadad, > on horseback, gets away with some of ' t h e cavalry, but is only saved for a worse defeat, in which 100,000 Syrian Infantry were slaughtered in one day. How we see the sarcasm and the epiivfrrammatic power of the message of say text sent by the king of Israel to . Benhadad, "Let not him that girdeth • «n his harness boast himself as he that v putteth it off." First, I find encouragement in this • subject for the aged who have got >through the work and struggle of 'earthly life. With more or less fortitude yon passed through the crises of pain and sadness and disappointment and fatigue and still live to recount the divine help that sustained you. At i twenty or thirty years of your age at -the tap of the drum you put on the harness. Now, at sixty or seventy or -eighty, yon are peacefully putting it ••«•. Ton would not want to try the battle of life over again. So let all of -the aged in peace with God, through -the blessed Christ, cultivate contentment and thank the Lord their Sedan ftas been fought and the war is over. **Let not him that girdeth on his harness boast himself as he that putteth it off." There are old farmers who cannot do one more'day's work. What harvests they raised in 1S70! What droughts, ?what freshets, what insectile invasion, -they remember! To clothe and feed j^and educate the household they went through toils and self sacrifices that tte world knew but little about. Rest, aged man! Let the boys do the shdveiing and thrashing and cutting and sweating. Ton have put the harness «n% and do not try to put it on again. There are old mechanics that can no more shove the plane or pound with the hammer or bore with the bit or nm np the ladder to the scaffolding. You have a right to quit. Tou have inished your task. Be thankful that yoor work is done. Then there are aged physicians. What tragedies of pain and accident they have witnessed! How much suffering they have assuaged! How many brave battles they have fought with lancet and cataclysm! How many fevers they cooled! How many broken '• hones they set. God comfort and bless the old doctors, allopathic, homeopathic, hydropathic and eclectic, and nmke them willing to be out of prac- 'tlee! Before long they will hear the 'henedlotkm of him who said, "I was nick, and ye visited me." And there.are the old ministers, •<0*ce they were foremost in general as- /.seniblies and conferences and associaftlons. Now they have stopped prsachiofc, for their breath is short, or their ' nerves are a-jangle, or they loss their thread ot discourse or suffer from conclusion of ideas. Cheer up, aged domrinies ahtf doctors S The-Bible says God rfbrgete our sins when we repent ot tthetn, but he never forgets faithful services rendered. Be cogent to stop. -"Let not hta that gtadeth on his hardness bnnnt IflsfcSeJf as h# that putteth Again, I isarn from Benhadad's bebavior the unwiidom or boasting of what ons is going to do.. Bstter not teU boastingly what you are going to do. Walt until it Is done, tou do well to lay out your plans, but there are so many mistakes and disappointments In life that you may not be able to carry out your plans, and there is no need of invoking the world's derision and caricature. Napoleon was so sure of conquering England, Scotland and Ireland that he had a medal struck; celebrating the conquest, which he never made, On that medal was represented his own crowned head. Wilberforce did not tell what he was going to do with the slave trade, but how much he accomplished is suggested by Lord Brougham's remark concerning Wilberforce after his decease, "He went to heaven with 800,000 broken fetters in his hand." The only kind of boasting that prospers was that of Paul, who cried out, "r glory in the cross of Christ!" and that of John Newton, who declared, "I am not what I ought to be; I am not what « wish to be; I am not what I hope to be, but, by the grace of Gcd, r am not what I was." My subject is also a refutation of the famous sentiment that God is on the side of the heaviest artillery. God is not on the side of the most swords or the most war chariots or the most cannon if they be in t?ie wrong, but oirthe~side of the-right The Southwestern his place of employment On ^ 4 ^ / - ^ ^ ^ 1 ^ Thif i f * s - t h r * e s ^ 5 ^ . m WU^ shire of Landsdowh Terrace, Cains. Wis., who during this time suffered ths preposterous sentiment as I have mentioned should have gained sway I know not when all history proclaims the opposite. How insignificant. were the unarmed Israelites, half starved and unorganized, compared with Pharaoh's host on foot, on horseback and charioted! But the waves of the Red sea took part in the conflict, parting to let the pursued pass, but coming together to destroy the pursuers. The Midianltes and Amalekltes were like grasshoppers for multitudes, but 300 men under Gideon came down, their ownly weapons pitchers and' lamps and trumpets, and as they held up the lamps and threw down the pitchers and blew' the trumpets the flash of the lights and the blare of the instruments and the crash ot the crockery made their enemy fall back in wild terror. Notice also that my text takes it for granted that you must put on the, harness, else how can you take It off? Life is a battle—a thirty years', a forty years' or a sixty years' war. Every possible effort will be made to make you think wrong. The young man who gets his head filled with wrong notions about God, about Christ, about the soul, about the great beyond, is already captured. Think right, and you will act right. Keep the heart pure, and the life will be pure. Have the heart corrupt, and your actions will be corrupt. We hold our breath in horror as once in awhile we hear of someone, either by accident or suicide, going over Niagara Falls, but the tides, the depths, the awful surges of intemperance, are every hour of every day rushing scores of immortals down into unfathomed abysm. Suicides by the hundreds of thousands! Suicides by the million! Beware of the cup out of which Benhadad drank personal and national demolition. Yes, you must have full armor. There are temptations to an impure life all the time multiplying and intensifying. Read in private and discussed afterward by the refined and elegant in parlors are books poisoned from lid to lid with impurities. Loose characters in the novel applauded by rhetorical pens and proprieties of life caricatured as prudery and infidelity of behavior put in a way to excite sympathy and half approval. My wonder Is not that so many go astray, but my wonder is that ten times as many are not debauched. There are influences at work which, if unarrested, will turn our cities into Sodoms and Gomorrahs ready for the hail and fire and brimstone of God's indignation. Yes, you must have full armor, for there are all the temptations to gaming practices, either in gambling halls or in the money markets, buying what they never paid, for and selling what they can never deliver, first borrowing w&at they cannot return and stealing what they cannot borrow. All hours of the day and all hours of the night are vast sums of money passing fraudulently, for gambling in all cases is fraud, whether it be a twenty-five cent prize package or a crash in Northern Pacific, which made Lombard street and the bourse aghast and shook the nations with financial earthquake. Oh, yes, you need the harness on until God tells you to take It off. In olden time It was leathern armor or chain armor or ribbed armor, fashioned in ancient foundry, but no one can give you the outfit you need except God, who is master of this world and the infernal world, from which'ascend the mightiest hostilities. Lay hold of God. Nothing but the arm of Omnipotence is strong enough for the tempted. Young man, put on the entire gospel outfit If you have eome from the country to live in the city, imitate the example of a young man who arrived in New York on Saturday night, inmoming, carryings out the good ad vies before leaving his country home he went to church.

As. he was about turning tc go away a gentleman said, "Have you a seat, young man.?" "No, sir." "D« you belong to ths city?": - "No, sir/ "Where is your home?!' "In the country." "How long have you been in the city?" "I came in last night" "What are you going to do here?" "I hope to go into business to-morrow." "That Is right You have begun well, young man. Nevsr forsake the Ood of your fathers. Come, I will give you a seat in my pew." The next morning the young man presented his letter in business circles. "What do you want, young man?" said the Scotch merchant "I want to get credit on some leather, upper and sole." "Have you references?" "I think I can get references. My father has friends here." "Young man, did I not see you yesterday in Mr. Lenox's pew?" "I do not know, sir. I was at church, and a kind gentleman asked me to sit in his pew." "Yes, young man, that was Robert Lenox. I will trust anyone that Mr. Lenox Invites into his pew. You need not trouble yourself about references. When these goods are gone, come and get more."

Young man just arrived, put yourself under good influencesyour first day In town. There hangs your helmet. Take it down. There is your breastplate. Adjust it. There is all the harness for safety and triumph. Put it on. Also see in my subject the folly of underestimating the enemy. That was Benhadad's fatal mistake. He wanted less than half a day to capture Samaria and make the king of Israel capitulate. But what he thought was so easy turned out to be the impossible. Better overestimate than underestimate the other side. We who are trying to make the world what it ought to be contend not with horaunculi. We wrestle not with striplings. We have a whole army of antagonists trying to halt the King of God and overthrow the cause of righteousness. If we secure the victory, it will be a struggle as^fierce as when the Greek* and Persians met at Marathon, as when Darius and Alexander grappled each other at Arbela, as when Joan of Arc rode triumphant at Orleans, as when the Russians met the Swedes at Poltava, as when Marlborough commanded the allied armies at Blenheim. Those were fights for earthly crowns and dominions, but the fight that now goes on between all the allied armies of hell is to settle whether God or Satan is to have possession of this planet. I congratulate all those who are now In the thickest of life's battle that the time Is coming when the struggle will end and you will put the harness off, helmet and greaves and breastplate having fulfilled their mission. You cannot in one visit to London Tower see all. You must go again and again. You will see the crowns of kings and queens, the robe worn by the Black Prince, and silver baptismal fonts from which royal infants were christened, and the block on which Lord Lovat was beheaded. But no part of London Tower will more interest you than the armory, in which is skillfully and impressively arranged a collection of all styles of armor worn between the thirteenth and eighteenth centuries, suggesting 500 years of conflict—cuirass and neck guard and chin piece and lance rest and gauntlet and girdle and mailed apron. You see just how from head to heel those old time warriors were defended against sharp weapons that would cut or thrust or bruise and allowing them to come out of battle unhurt when otherwise they would have been slain. O ye soldiers of Jesus Christ, when the war of life is over and the victors rest in the soldiers' home on the heavenly heights, perhaps there may be fn the city of the sun a tower of spiritual armor such as incased the warriors for Christ in earthly combat. Some day we may be in that armory and hear the heroes talk of how they fought the good fight of faith and see them with the scars of wounds forever healed and look at the weapons of offense and defense with which they became more than conquerors. In that tower of heaven, as the weapons of the spiritual conflict are examined, St. Paul may point out to us the armor with which he advised tne Epheslans to equip themselves and say: "That is the shield of faith. That is the helmet ol salvation. That is the girdle of truth. That is the breastplate of righteousness. Those are the mailed shoes in which they were shod with the preparation Of the gospel."

When the work was finished and the instruments in place he found he could neither work nor understand them, and consequently a professional astronomer had to be summoned from Naples. This, however, did not diminish the influence of, Kumbaris, who succeeded in preventing the distribution of Mauser rifles among the imperial troops in in Constantinople in 1895 at the first news of Armenian disturbances by-the sage reminder that the previous change in the succession took place immediately after a distribution of new guns. The sincerity of this wonderful piece of advice cannot be doubted, as the self-sacrificing genius who offered it to his worthy master rose from his sick bed to do so. Tablet at AndenonvUla PrUoa.

Wright City, Ma, Dec. 30.—Medical men are still wondering over the Syoies cose, which has aroused such a widespread interest in this neighborhood. Mr. Joseph G. Symes had suffered very severely from Inflammatory Rheumatism, enduring pains which were something terrible and which made It altogether impossible for him to work by day or rest or sleep at night. In spite of all treatments he grew worse and his case seemed to defy all the usual remedies. He began a treatment of Dodd's Kidney Pills and very soon noticed a marked improvement, which increased as he kept on till six boxes were used, when he found himself without a trace of pain or ache. He 13 now able to work all day and sleep all night, and his rapid and complete recovery is regarded by the doctors as little short of a miracle. End of Stntng-e Romance. The marriage of John M.

Alice Seaton leaned batk-in her invalid chair, a joy- ^oui aush* ori her wasted cheek, and a Joyous happinese iti her eye. Still the shadow tff coming death wus there, and Mr. Hdpe was shocked to see her —more shocked and startled than he had expected, or chose to express. "Oh, AHctf! What has done this?" "That,** she answered, pointing to the bracelet, which, returned to its true owner, lay on the table. "I should not have lived many years, of that I am convinced; hut I might have lived a little longer than 1 now shall. It has been the cause of misery to many, and Lady Sarah says she shall never regard It but as an ill-starred trinket, or wear it with any pleasure." "But, Alice, why should you have suffered it, thus to affect you," he remonstrated.- "You knew your own innocence, and. you say you believed and trusted in mine; what did you fear?" "I will tell you, Gerard," she resumed, a deeper hectic rising in her cheeks. "I could not have confessed my fear, even in dying; it was too distressing, too terrible; but now that it is all clear, I will tell i t I believed my eister had taken the bracelet." He uttered an exclamation of amazement. "I have believed it all along. She had called to see me that night, and was for a minute or two in the room alone with the bracelets; I knew she, at that time, was short of money, and I feared she had been tempted to take it—just as this unfortunate servant man was tempted. Oh, Gerard, the dread of it has been upon me night and day. preying upon my fears, weighing down my spirits, wearing away my health and my life. And I had to bear it all in silence—that dreadful silence that has killed me." "Alice, this must have been a morbidfear." "Not so-—if you knew all. But now that I have told you let us not revert to it again; it is at an end, and I am very thankful. That it should so end has been my prayer and hope; not quite the only hope," she added, looking up at him with a sunny smile; "I have had another." "What is it? You look as if it were connected with me." "So it is. Ah, Gerard! Can you not guess it?" "No," he answered, in a stifled voice. "I can only guess that you arc lost to me." "Lost to all here. Have you forgotten our brief conversation the night you went into exile? I told you then there was one far more worthy of you than I could ever have been." "None will ever be half so worthy; or—I will say it, Alice, in spite of your warning hand—half so loved." "Gerard," she continued, sinking her voice, "she has waited for you." "Nonsense," he rejoined. "She has. I have watched and seen, and I know it; and I tell it you under secrecy; when she is your wife, not before, you may tell her that I saw it and said it. - She is a lovable and attractive girl, and she does not and will not marry; you are the cause." ''My darling-—" "Stay, Gerard," she gravely interrupted; "those words of endearment are not for me. Give them to her; can you deny that you love her?" "Perhaps I do—in a degree. Next to yourself " "Put me out of your thoughts while we speak. If I were—where I BO soon shall be, would she not be dearer to you than any one on earth? Would you not be well pleased to make her your, wife?" "Yes, I might be." "That is enough, Gerard, Frances, come hither." The conversation had been carried on in a whisper, and Lady Francis Cbenevix came towards them from a distant window. Alice took her hand; she also held Gerard's. "I thought you were talking secrets," said Lady Frances, "so I kept away." "As we were," answered Alice. "Frances, what can we do to keep him among us? Do you know what Col. Hope has told him?" "No. What?" "That though he shall be reinstated in favor as to money matters, he shall not be in his affection, or in the house, unless he prove sorry for his rebellion by retracting i t The rebellion, you know, at the first outbreak, when Gerard was expelled from the house before that unlucky bracelet was ever bought; I think he is sorry for it; you must help him to be more so." "Fanny," said Gerard, while her eyelids drooped, and the damask mantled in ber cheek, deeper than Alice's hectic, "will you help me?" "As if I could make head or tail out of what you two are discussing!" cried she by way of helping her out of her confusion, so sbe attempted to turn away; but Gerard caught her to his side and detained her." "Fanny—will you drive me again from the house?" _'. Sheulifted her ey_es_twinkling_wilh a little spice of mischief. "I did not drive you before." "In a manner, yes," he laughed. "Do you know what did drive me?" She had known it at the time, and Gerard read it in her conscious face. "I see it all," he murmured, drawing her closer to him; "you have been far kinder to me than I deserved. Fanny, let me try and repay you for it." Frances endeavored to look dignified, but it would not do, and she was obliged to brush away the tears of happiness that struggled to her eyes. Alice caught their hands together and held them between her own, with a mental aspiration for their life's future happiness. Some time bank she could not have breathed it in so fervent a spirit; but—as she had said—the present world and its hopes had closed to her. "But you know, Gerard," cried Lady Frances, in a Baucy tone, "if,you ever do help yourself to a bracelet in reality, you must not expect me to go to prison with you." "YeB, 1.shall," answered he, far more saucily; "a wife must follow the fortunes of her husband." THE END. W W M N A ^ / y ^ S A < \ A A K Morley Roberts, Mr. Smith, who ran a sailors* boarding- bouse in that part of San Francisco known as the Barbary Coast, was absolutely eui generis. Every breeze0 that blew, trade-wind or monsoon, had heard of his iniquities. He got the best of everyone. "All but one," said Smith, one night, In a moment of weakness, when a dozen men who owed so much money that they crawled to him as a Chinaman does to a joss w<ire hanging on his lips; "all but one.** "Oh, we don't take that in," said one of the most indebted; "we can't 'ardly believe that, Mr. Smith. "Yep, I was done brown and never got the best of one beast," said the boardlng-hotiM • keeper.- -. He looked them over malignantly. "I kin lick any of you here with one hand," he went on, "but the man as belted me could htfve taken on three of yon with both hands. I run against him on the pier,at.Sandridge when I was In Australia fifteen years ago.' He was a naval officer, captain of the Warrior, and dressed up to kill, though he had a face like a figurehead out of mahogany with a broad axe. And r was a feelln* good and in need of a scrap.

I didn't care much, but this naval josser picks himself up and goes to 'em. Would you believe it, but when he'd spoke a bit I seed him donate em about a dollar each, and they walked off round a heap of dunnage on the wharf, and the captain buttoned up his coat and came for me. "I never seen the likes of it.

I fought good (you know me) and I got in half a dozen on his face. But I never fazed him none, and he wouldn't bruise mor'n hittln' a boiler. And every time he got back on me I felt as if I'd been kicked. "He scarred me something cruel, I could see It by the blood on his hands. Twarn't bis by a long sight, for his fists were made of teak, I should say. And in the end, when I seemed to see a ship's company of naval officers around me, one of them hit me under the ear and lifted me up. And another hit me whilst I waa in the air. and a third landed me as I fell. And that was the end of it so far'* I remember.

' • '• ' "Never set eyes on him from that day to this/' said his boss, regvetfnlly. "And if you did?" Smith paused—took a drink. > "So help me I'd Shanghai him if he was King of England!" •.- And one of the crowd who had put down the San. Francisco Chronicle in order to hear this yarn picked it up again. "S'elp me," he said, in breathless excitement, "'ere's a funny coincidence. 'Ere's a telegram from 'Squimault, sayin' as how the flagship Triumphant, Hadmiral Sir Richard Dunn, K. C. B., is comin' down to San Francisco!" . "By Jove, let's look," said Shanghai Smith. He read, and a heavenly smile overspread his hard countenance. He almost looked good, such joy was his. "Tom," he said to the bartender, "set up drinks for the crowd. This is my man, for sure. And him an admiral, too! Holy sailor, ain't this luck?" He went out into the street and walked to and fro, rubbing his hands, while the men inside took their drink. "Was there ever such, luck? Was there ever such luck?" murmured Mr. Shanghai Smith. "To think of him turnin' up all of his own accord on my particular stampin' ground! Holy sailor! was there ever such luck?" The morning of the following day Her Majesty's ship Triumphant lay at her anchors off Saucelito, in San Francisco Bay. Though the admiral did not know it, one of the very first to greet him when he set his foot on dry land at the bottom of Market street was the man he had licked so thoroughly fifteen years before in Melbourne. "Oh, it's the same," said Smith to his chief runner, who was about the "hardest case" in California. "He ain't changed none. Just so old he was when he set about me. I'm goin' to have thishyer admiral shipped before the stick on the toughest ship that's about ready to go to sea. Now what's in the harbor with officers that can lick me?" "Well, I always allowed (as you know, sir) that Simpson of the California was your match. And the California will sail In three days." "~ ''RightoT^said Smith; "Simpson Is" a good, tough man. Bill, the California will do." "But how'll you corral the admiral, sir?" asked Bill. "You leave that to me," replied his boss. "I've got a very fruitful notion as will fetch him, if he's half the man he was." Mr. "Say-it-and-mean-it" Smith laid for Admiral Sir Richard Dunn. K. C. B., etc., etc., from ten o'clock till halfpast eleven, and he was the only man in the crowd that did not hope the victim would come down with too many friends to be tackled. The admiral came at last; it was about a quarter to twelve, and the whole water-front was remarkably quiet. And the admiral was only accompanied by his flag-lieutenant. The two were promptly sandbagged, the lieutenant left on the street and the admiral carried to the house in the Barbary Coast. When he showed signs of coming to he was promptly dosed, and his clothes were taken off him. As he slept the sleep of the drugged they put on a complete suit of rough serge toggery and he became Tom Deane, able-bodied seaman. By four o'clock in the morning Tom Deane lay fast asleep in a forward bunk of the California's fo'c's'le as she waa being towed through the Golden Gate. And his flag-lieutenant was Inquiring in hospital what had become of the admiral. And nobody could tell him more than he himself knew.

Monumental B r u M * . At the beginning of the thirteenth century it occurred to Some one to preserve the likeness of his departed friend, as well as the symbols of his rank and station, says the Gentleman's Magasine. So effigies were introduced upon the surface of the slibs, and were carved fiat, but ere fifty years had passed away, the art of the sculptor produced magnificent monumental effigies. Knights and nobles lie clad in armor with their ladies by their sides; bishops and abbots bless the spectators with uplifted right hands; judges He in their official garb; and merchants with the emblem of their trade. At their feet lie animals, usually having some heraldic connection with the deceased, or symbolical of his work; e. g., a dragon is trodden down beneath the feet of a bishop, signifying the defeat of sin as the result of his ministry. The heads of effigies usually rest on cushion! which are sometimes supported by two angels. ^ SHOES V - ^ ° UNION auoc. Notki uureott efmkt OT tatit Mom i tSt>MUa.foa rmlw.

Superintendents and delegates were present from about 20 states. Among the distant states represented were Washington and California. In Texas a good work is going on, but was not reported. Michigan was represented by Eev. A. F. Ferris, superintendent of Grand Rapids district, and State superintendent Dr. Hubbard. The reports that were made from the states as to the work in progress and results being reached were enough to convince the most skeptical that the greatest temperance organization in the, United States is the Anti-Saloon League. It has more men in the, field, is holding more public meet-j ings, is publishing more literature! is working along more practical i lines, is interesting more of the , solid business men in its work, securing more present results, with a better outlook for future accomplishments, than any other organization in the United States if iudeed it is not doing more than all others.

One of the pretty Sunday school teachers has a class of little girls, and it Is her custom to tell them each Sunday of some little Incident that has happened In the week and request ibe children to quote a verse of Scripture to Illustrate the story. In^this way she hopes to Impress the usefulness of Biblical knowledge upon the little ones. Last Sunday she told her class of a cruel boy who would catch cats and cut their tails off. "Now, can any little girl tell me of an appropriate verse?' she asked. There was a pause for a few moments.

T h e president, Dr. Wilson, spoke of t h e anarchy which is "more deadly tnan that which killed our beloved P r e s i d e n t Mckinley:" " T h e fact that the anarchists of Chicago hatched their c o n s p i r a - cy of 1885 in t h e North Side saloons h a s been forgotten. B u t when t h e nation understands that President McKinley's assassin was the son of a former saloonkeeper; that i n a room back of his father's saloon in Cleveland he learned the first lesson in anarchy; that he boarded in a saloon in Buffalo and went therefrom to fire t h e fatal shot, and that tho murderer was toasted a n d praised by t h e anarchists of Paterson and Newark i n the saloons of those cities, the patriotic indignation of t h e people will have been aroused to such a degree against t h e saloon as the meeting place and personification of anarchy as will iiasteu the fulfillment of t h e prediction that within ten years t h e paramount question in America will be t h e abolition of t h e A m e r i c m saloon. I n this work t h e American Anti-Saloon League must play a great part." " T h e saloon breeds anarchy, as we have been shown," said t h e speaker. " W e know what anarchy has done for this country. I n the contemplation of t h e awful crime at Buffalo it seems that anarchy has reached its utmost limits, it has done its worst. I t laid low t h e beloved of this nation, robbed of life a being whose only thought was of the kindliest character. B u t it reached its limits. I t could not rob that brow of t h e crown placed upon it by a united people; it could not take away the regard and veneration of that people: it could not strike t h e t'irone upon which its victim had been raised by those w h o loved and revered him; it could not and cannot diverse that man from the love felt for him by t h e American people wherever they m a y be.

A traveler for a diamond house was talking shop the other evening and, speaking of gems, said: "The most overworked expression used by the unsophisticated and deeply impressed diamond purchaser Is, 'It actually looks as If It glows of Itself/ Now. it is not generally known that sucn is actually the case, although not, 7)T course. In the way~tbe public intends. The beauty of the gem In light Is, of course, In its remarkable refractive power, but under certain conditions the diamond has more, for it may gleam oven in the night with a pale but extremely beautiful light. In short, It becomes phosphorescent. Heated to a certain temperature the internal fire shows Itself, and under pressure the same Is true. "Some years ago I went to Amsterdam to purchase some special stones for a California millionaire who had ordered them through our New York house, and while there I was shown the inside workings of the famous diamond cutting establishments of that city. Of all that I saw, however, the 'self flame' of tbe stones under pressure most surprised me. Tbe manager placed a large rose cut gem between the Jaws of a vise and carefully applied a certain amount of pressure. He then extinguished all tbe light in the shop, and as soon as my eyes had become accustomed to the darkness I saw the diamond emitting a soft radiance of Its own like a very pale glowworm. As I remember it, he said that the yellower diamonds were slightly more phosphorescent than the first water stones. "By the way, you would be really astonished to know the number of jewels which also possess 'self flame' to a more or less extent, ami 1 have often wondered if the alchemists who performed such apparently well authenticated wonders in the middle, ages did not* knovf something of phosphorescence and its oddities."—New Orleans Times-Democrat. _ stooped C C Cr Vera sold in Ms. Bfwsre of tbs dealer who tries to Sftfl W h a t t h e E y e T e l l e . Eyes are very treacherous, and those who meddle in amorous matters should know all ubout them. When the upper lid covers half or more of the pupil, the Indication is of cool deliberation. An eye the upper lid of which passes horizontally across the pupil indicates mental ability. Unsteady eyes, rapidly jerking from side to side, are frequently indicative of an unsettled mind. It Is said that the prevailing color of eyes among the patients of lunatic asylums are brown and black. Kyes of any color with weak brows and long, concave lashes are Indicative of a weak constitution. Eyes that are wide apart are said to Indicate great Intelligence and a tenacious memory. Eyes of which the whole Iris Is visible belong to erratic persons, even with a'tendency toward insanity. Wide open, staring eyes in weak countenances Indicate jealousy, bigotry, intolerance and pertinacity Without firmness. H i e F a v o r i t e Dteh.

"And it is always open to you to refuse an Interview." "I don't want to be hard on anybody. Pair play is all I want Now, what exactly do they pay you for?" "Because by many years' experience and very hard work I have acquired a considerable knowledge of technique, a bright and engaging style and a"— "Oh, my aunt! You don't think anybody would pay money for all that skittles. What they pay for in these interviews is the real stuff, and the real stuff ain't you; it's me." "You forget that I also record my own remarks and observations." "You do! I dare say you do a bit too mtJch of that. But you wouldn't get along without me. If I wasn't there, you couldn't do an interview with me. And if you tiid-^ell, I believe the law comes down pretty sharp on that kind of thing. It wouldn't be worth while to risk It. Now, suppose I've got a lot of apple trees and you've got a shop, ought you to take my apples and sell them In your shop and keep all the money yourself? That's how I put It. That's common sense." "Suppose, also, that the apples are of no use to you and that you are quite unable to sell them yourself. I've no objection to the argument from analogy, supposing that the analogy Is complete." "I'm not going to be scared off by your talking like Euclid. You're making so much money that you don't even know how much it Is. You owned up to that, you know, and I'm in a pretty bad way. First I put up a dollar on a raffle for a revolver. Then I put up my watch in the swimming bath, and the man at the shop says"— "Hold on," said the interviewer. "Why did you put your watch In the swimming bath?" "That's pretty simple. I wanted something to dive for, and another chap said he'd put his watch In If I put in mine. His Is going as well as ever, which doesn't seem .fair, since he proposed It. Things don't happen In a fair way as a general rule, and I like fairness when I can get it. That's what led me on to speak about these Interviews. Now, suppose you tell me what you think my share ought to be." "1 don't think." the Interviewer said, "that it's a good thing for a small boy like you to have a lot of money to waste. Your father wouldn't like i t But I think you would be ethically justificd"- "Keep It long!" murmured James Robinson sarcastically. —"ethically justified in suggesting that I shuuld start a small bank account for you, which In after life"— "Don^t you worry about that. I don't. What worries me Is not having any money in my clothes now." After some further discussion an arrangement was made which was regarded as satisfactory by James Robinson and relieved the immediate financial pressure. "And look here," he said. "If there's anything else you're bothered about any time and want to elicit views fbout, just come along to me, and if I can help you I will.

The three pledged their assent. They* met one night less than a week later and Elliot said; "Well, Tompkins, how did you come out?" "All right," v said the little man. "The supper Isn't on me. It was 3 o'clock when I got home. I was getting along all right, and it seemed certain that I would get to my room on the third floor without disturbing a soul, when my foot struck a chair wtflch somebody had carelessly left standing on the stairs. The chair turned over and went rattling and . bumping down the stairs. "'Hello,' called Mrs. Tompkins. '1 suppose that is you, Henry?' " 'Yes, dear/ I said. 'It is V * ** 'Well,' she said, 'It's a nvonder you wouldn't break the chair all to pieces/ "I remembered our agjeemeut. and although it was hard work I finally got that chair broken up. The chair was hardwood and it took me a long time to do i t but there was mighty little left when I got through." "And you. Elliott" said Hawkins sadly. "I'm all right," said the magnificent interior sentinel. "I had nearly the same experience. I broke into the house without rousing anybody and was just about to go under the wire an easy winner when I stepped on Mrs. Elliott's pet Angora cat " 'Thomas/ said Mrs. Elliott " 'Yes, dear/ I answered. 'I stepped on Clarence. He was sleeping here on tho stairs, and I was trying to get up to bed..without disturbing you/ " 'Well/ said Mrs/ Elliott 'it's a wonder you wouldn't kill the poor dear/ "With "our agreement in mind I took her suggestion as a command and after some ditliculty finally got a firm hold of Clarence and of my revolver. A cat has nine lives, you know, but I finally succeeded in carrying out my wife's wishes in the matter. "Hawkins. It's up to you." The past grand Imperial emperor heaved a deep sigh. "I've got a long story to tell," he said. "Let's put it off till we have more time." But the other men were relentless. "I don't mind confessing." he began, "that I went home determined to stick •ne of you fellows for the supper. In fact I may as well admit that I had made arrangements before.

"I even took the' trouble to look up the policeman on the beat, and be assured mV that there hadn't been a lignt lit in my bouse since 10 d'clock.

It went bumping clown to tho bottom, striking pn every step with a racket which was frightful. " 'Who's there?' cried my wife in a naturally startled voice.

"I was on the next to the last step when my toe caught on a loose bit of carpet and I fell forward, only saving myself by putting out my hands, In which I carried my shoes. Of course the shoes made a terrible racket as they struck the stairway, and Mrs. Hawkins was roused to action once more.: - - — _.

Few, however, exceed in wonder a valley at Stansfleld in Essex, England. The rector of this parish In giving a careful account of his own experiences states that his house stands on a hill 288 feet above sea level, rising In rear to 300 feet, while in front the ground slopes away to a stream 100 feet below and again rises 180 feet on the opposite side. From the rectory the bells of 14 or 15 villages may be distinguished, while across the valley footsteps and voices in conversational tone may be heard at half a mile. ummmlm ISH um A •>*' 'h A Utter From Cuba. Havaua, Cuba, Deo. 11,1901. P. L. Andrews: I thought I WQU14 write yon a few lines to let yon know that 1 am still in the land of the living and well. "We are -having fine weather here, now the rainy season is over. It started about May 1 and continued up to Nov. 1. As I said before it is fine weather here. The nights are quite cool, in fact couTTolve^tsH^ i s out a light overcoatTddeBiTt go bad,~i)trtr the days are fine, not too cool nor too hot; but just fine. I like it here very well, but I like the U. S. better. I think we will be going back to the states in the spring, but not sure. I think it depends a good deal on how the election comes off this February. If every thing goes off and stays smooth I believe we will go, if not we stay. The U. S. is organizing companies of native artillery here now. They have one company of whites organized and are now organizing one of blacks. The companies are in Cabana Fortress and are under the command of Cap't Aultman of the U. S. army and are under drill instructions of non-commissioned officers of the XT. S. army. They are a fine lot of men and I believe they will make fine soldiers. They are very bright and learn very fast. The Cuban people are as a general rule a bright people and are learning fast, and will in a short time be an up-to-date nation. They are very accomodating. If one keeps on the right side of them and uses them half way decent they will divide the last crumb with him, but if you tross their path and go against them, look out. But they are very enduring and will stand a great deal of cuffing and kicking before they revolt. Most of the native born Cubans are in favor of being annexed to the U. S. the same as Porto Rico, but the naturlized Spanish don't want it but wants a government of their own. This is one reason why I believe there will be another revolution here before many years because the native born will not be ruled by the Spaniards any longer even if they are naturalized citizens of Cuba. The natives have tasted of a better government during the U. S. rule.

Davidson's Flffht for Life. The body of Edward Davidson, who was brutally murdered at Valparaiso, Ind..

V. hadn't dragged.me,into it whether I liked It or not; then I wouldn't be worried as 1 am- this minute, by a specter In the distance of a red headed sister-in-law who is a regular Nobody from Nowhere. I didn't care to make her acquaintance 1A the first place, when you wanted me to take her up. My wretched mistake came about that day I met you and you suggested that I invite her to go with us on our camp* Ing out excursion, because she w a s having a bad time of it at home, with her stepfather^ * G. V. dropped in that evening and took tea with us, and I foolishly mentioned what you had said, and he and Tom were just daffy enough to fall right in with the plan. They said if she never had any good times it would be a nice thing to help her have one for once. I said I didn't see bow we could take a girl like her; we were ail paired off comfortably, two and two, she never had an admirer of her own, as far as I knew; she would just have to tag around after Uncle John and Aunt Alice, who were to chaperone our party. • G. V. said why hadn't she any admirers I - s a l d s h e was so__a_wfully_ plain, and her folks weren't anybody; her stepfather was a cranky old exranchman and hadn't got rich at the business, either, and her very name was a freak—Penelope Dusenberry. Tom said, "Oh, well, ask her anyway, and I'll keep a friendly eye on her now and then." And G. V. said, "Yes, ask her, and I'll relieve Tom occasionally if he finds the job too much for him." , So I couldn't get out of it, and there we are. But she wouldn't have gone half an inch of the way if I had had as much sense as a red a n t I'll tell you why in my next letter. Disgustedly yours, Floretta. Glen Alder, August 6th. Dear Jen:—That Dusenberry girl of yours is repaying my kindness by getting around poor Tom as fast as she knows how—sly red-headed thing; and always so excruciatingly amiable t o me, and so grateful to me for giving "her this little bit of fresh air and streak of sunshine—gush! Tom says she is not so bad looking, now that she is having a good time, blundering old moth he is; she'll have him in a wink. I'm disappointed in everybody —yes, everybody. The country air or something else has turned the whole set into driveling idiots. Here were Tom and Zellle Waters as good aa engaged before they came here, and I asked Zellie Just onpurpose for Tom's benefit, so they would settle it definitely, and now here's Tom blundering into that red-headed minx's web, and as for Zellle, I used to consider her amiable and artless, if she didn't have much of a brain in her silly head, but I believe now, she's a3 deep and wily as an old sea serpent, and has had her eye on G. V. all the time, although she knew I had settled it long ago that he and I were kindred spirits. She's just been fooling Tom and watching for a chance to snap G. V. up, and Tom, like the exasperating old mole he is, is letting her spin her webs while he goes around trying to make that Dusenberry fright have a good time. I wish there weren't any men. Flo.

Flo has repented of her good deed forty timet a minute, but then Flo's good deed wasn't performed very cheerfully in the first place. I'm afraid I might have effaced my rainbow at one time, by mauling O. V., if X hadn't reflected that that wasn't the most approved manner of settling a rival in these days, and besides I might get licked, myself. But I didnt even have to call him out, as it happen**, .TIM* original scheme waa t*a* 0., V. and J wejta to take turns Keeping time; and the little girl Isn't bad company, at all, if she is freckled; she can say more original things with lees talk than any,girl 1^ know; so I put in my best licks for her entertainment— me just aa innocent as an amiable oyster, when all of a- sudden* I found Flo going demented with rage, and G. V. and Zellie (my Zettiet) strolling about together and getting entirely too spoony and moony. That's when I wanted to mart George. A n d oh, how my sweet Z. snubbed me, and acted like a bad tempered spitfire of a kitten; fortunately, she overdid the business a little, and it let in a glimmer light to my old brain. She wouldn't have been so spunky to me, just on G. V.'s account. So when I found her weeping all by her lone, on a log in the edge of the camping ground. I sailed into the consolation business like a duck. She said she was crying because a great woolly spider frightened her, and I diplomatically swallowed the spider fiction, and put my arm around her to protect her from any more spiders. And I give you my word, I haven't had a lucid interval Penelope. since. And she had been jealous of Pen. Dusenberry! As for G. V., the shoe may be on the other foot now, and he may a t this minute* be laying for me, ready to do some mauling himself. Poor old boy, I hope he won't be desperatee enough to wind up his earthly career because I've got Zellie back. Of course it's tough on him, but he ought to bear up, and reflect that he can still be a useful citizen and do some little good in the world, if he can't have the onlygirl any fellow could want. Yes, the camping's a humming success. Tom. Glen Alder, August 20th. Dear Old Dick:—Congratulate me, but don't ever ask me what I saw in her to admire, etc.; I don't know where the charm is, and I don't try to fathom it. All I know is that the other girls are to me like faded out dimity beside some quaint, rich, oriental silk compared with this Penelope, the girl with red hair and yellow specks in her gray eyes. Floretta says she doesn't know how to dress. I don't know how that may be; she had on a thin black dres3 today, mull or calico, or swiss—I don't know what stuff it was made of, but it made her hair look like twisted copper with gold in the curves, and her complexion (between the freckles) like the petal of a rose. She has freckles. I always liked best those crisp looking speckled apples that were a little tart but sweet and flavored like the very breath of an orchard in the fullness of blossom time. I was a bit afraid Tom was about to lose his head, just at first, and I found my anxiety was shared by Zellie Waters; poor, dear little girl. She always reminds me of a nice, plump, sweet, insipid little seed cooky. It was clearly my duty under the circumstances, to chase after her for a while, and get old Tom jealous, if he really loved cookies as much as he had professed to me to do. And it brought him after us with a scowl on that round, blooming face of his, that made him look as much like the Wild Man of the Woods as he could, with that cherubic countenance. Well, I was willing enough to play quits, and he's got her now, and I've got Pen, and all the world is a big, sweet flower. Our fair Floretta doesn't seem to take much interest in our affairs- Tom's and mine. If we try to tell her anything about them, she says her feet hurt her, and goes in the house. T used to think she was a mighty nice girl, until she seemed somehow to have gone into a pickling process. I may like a very little bit of tartness, but I want a heap of good, wholesome sweetness akrng with i t Our outing Is drawing towards a close. I must go and take Pen for a walk to Silver Spring, so this is the finis for now. ,_ G. V. Glen Alder, August 29th.

Several weeks ago there was a fall in temperature in the Simplon tunnel, now in process of excavation through the Alps. The part of the tunnel reached was exactly under a mountain lake, and It was wondered if this fact had anything to do with the reduced temperature. The workmen are now in the central portion of the tunnel, about 107000 feet below the mountain peaks, the usual temperature being about 104 degrees Fahrenheit, which, of course, is too hot for comfortable working. By means, however, of water sprays, and the most thorough ventilation t^e heat is considerably reduced. A few days after the fall in temperature had been observed the workmen struck a vein of water that began to flood the south gallery. The work was stopped and a part of the men had to run at a lively rate to escape an uncomfortable wetting. N o serious embarrassment resulted, however, for the flood was overcome in a few days. Such delays have not occurred as often as it was thought might be the case. They occasion no anxiety for the reason that the work, now more than half completed, is considerably ahead of schedule time. A s compared with the earlier tunnels cut through the Alps, the rapid progress in the Simplon tunnel is regarded as extraordinary. It is due to the fact that the machinery in use is much more effective than that employed in the St. Gotthard and Arlberg tunnels. The present enterprise has the benefit, also, of the large progress made in engineering science in the past decade. —New York Sun. nEFORM foMEyrpp&. • * * & • ; KV--..1 '(,•'•'.

The American experts sent to Japan in 1897 spent six months in an Investigation of the oil regions. It was said that they returned to America convinced that the oil was not sufficiently plentiful to warrant being treated with expansive machinery. Reports of a different nature are now coming from Japan. The British Board of Trade Journal prints a report by Mr. Reutiers of the British Consular service, in which he .says that the petroleum industry has reached considerable dimensions. Nearly the entire " supply comes from the Province of Echigo, on the west coast about 200 miles nearly north of Y o - kohama. Pipe lines transport the oil from the wells to refineries at the seaport towns of Nagoaka,, Nilgata, and other places. These refineries, though small, will, it is asserted, bring the oil up to the American standard. It is proposed to construct a pipe line through the mountain valleys about 200 miles to Tokio for the purpose of starting the refining industry there on a large scale. Petroleum is also found in Yezo. the northern island, but though the supply there is said to be abundant nearly all the production, which now amounts to about 19,000,000 gallons a year, comes from Echigo. you for i t he cares HO much for all 'old times' and for anything that concerns Palmyra. •'Th<> wording of your letter shows that living in the west has not blinded your eyes to the truth concerning recent event**.

American "Beau Brummels" scoff at the idea of wearing a coat the shoulder seam of which commences about two inches down the arm, for, besides being in their eyes effeminate—that awful word which stands for everything man should avoid—and ugly, they must be uncomfortable, or it seems to the poor, unenlightened fashion's slaves and followers of long established custom on this side of the water. The German Male Dress Reform Club trousers fit tight, loosening somewhat below the knee, and they are trimmed with buttons from the knee down. The waistcoat is thickly padded. T H E M A R K E T S .

W e d d e d Life In S u m a t r a . The women of Sumatra have little to complain of. Before the nuptials are celebrated the husband is compelled to settle a marriage portion on his wife, and in case he is legally separated from her he can neither alienate this portion nor touch any of the property she may have brought into the marriage contract. Married people live in separate houses, the husband visiting the wife in the evening. The boys live with their mother until their fourth birthday, when they take up their residence with their father. Girls remait with their mother until they marry, which they do at an early age. When a woman, becomes a widow she plants a flagstaff at her door, from which a flag flies. That flag is of importance to the widow's fate, for so long as it remains untorn by the winds she is compelled by etiquette to remain unmarried. When the first little rent in the flag appears—and it may be the most minute—she is free to accept the first suitor who offers,— Detroit Free Press. Eastern Farm Lands. In the eastern states prices of agricultural land have generally fallen in recent years, in some cases about 50 per cent of the figures asked during the time of high prices. One of the . chief causes for the decline to the value of land in the east appears to be a loss of fertility, in the land itself. due, perhaps, to careless farming. In the central and western atatea there appears to be no such marked decline In farm values aa In the east. In the northwest land seems to have been increasing in value, and in some localities to a very marked degree. Fans laborers aeem to nave profited more in the past few years thaa their employers, or, slmee the fan in the prices of farm producta, even bitter off than some of the farmers who esaploy them.

S*cfc fine cabbage beds, bordered with crisp green lettuce, and all so carefully weeded, raked and swept! Tbey were watered morning and evening before sunrise and after sunset from an old sandstone fountain, green with mosses and water cress, from which escaped by a thousand Uttle holes threads of crystal and tiny singing rivulets. Sarrasln, the gravedigger, held the office of gardener. At first this idea was offensive to my childish mind. Tbe grass seemed to smell of death and the currant bushes to taste of the cemetery. But in a short time I forgot about this, as there was rarely a death in the village. Sarrasln often remarked that his title of gravedigger was more a joke than anything else. At the top of tbe garden, back of tbe old fountain, was a narrow strip of land, rather a lonely sort of place, where M. le Cure used to pass every moment not occupied with the duties of his sacred office. From a distance I could watch him in company with the gravedigger, always moving about in an excited manner and making the most remarkable gestures. They forbade my approach. "M. le Cure does not want you." Sarrasln said. "There are only beehives there." In truth these mysterious hives filled the garden with buzzing bees, darting here and there the livelong day, Intoxicated apparently with pollen from the heart of the hollyhocks. But why was I forbidden to look at the hives? At what strange work were the bees engaged (n the company of a priest and a gravedigger? One afternoon M. le Cure and Sarrasln were called quite a distance away to bury an old woman. Thus left alone, I could not control my curiosity another moment With a beating heart I went straight to the forbidden ground back of tbe fountain. There I found a plot of dry, sandy soil, planted with rosemary, lavender and every variety of herb, all giving a grayish tint and giving forth a delicious odor as they crackled underfoot A thick cloud of bees, shining like gold In the sunlight. Indicated the corner where the hives were located, for Sarrasln had not lied to me—hives there were indeed, but what hives! Picture to yourself an odd array of boxes, propped up one against another and only held In their places by a miracle of equilibrium; long boxes, arched boxes, boxes locking like fabulous monsters with arms and beaks! They were all pierced with holes through which the bees went in and out as tranquilly as though their homes were ordinary hives, but this fact did not reassure me, and. terrified by the unnatural appearance of it all. I fled back to the peaceful vegetable garden. Ten years later a chance walk took me again to tbe village. I found tbe cure broken in health and much older In appearance. The gravedigger wa9 dead. The little garden was almost a wilderness of herbs, but in the distance I heard, as in former days, the hum of bees. This recalled my adventure, and I resolved to make a clean breast of It. On questioning the old cure he began to laush and Insisted upon showing me his hives. There they were In the same lonely little strip of land behind tbe fountain, nlrVhavlng the same odd shapes which had startled my childlsb eyes years before. "It Is an idea of mine." said the cure. "I have worked over it for twenty years. It has cost me quite a sum of money and a great deal of time, but I still hope for success." Can you guess what the old man was working for and what had turned bis hair prematurely white? I will bot ten to one that you must give it up. Fie was determined to make his bees write in tatters of honey. "Vive I'empereur!" It was for this end they had sipped flip dew of morning, darting hither and thither in tbe green valley, gorging themselves with pollen and gathering liquid amber. Ah, If the bees had known! Rut tbe bees did not know. In his office of cure the old priest had always had a certain amount of ambition and In the evolution of what he called his Idea had nourished the most chimerical hopes. The thirteen letters once completed, he Intended to nail them, yellow as tbe sunshine and embroidered in the fine hexagonal cells, on a board, th;» front of which should be carved to represent tbe Arc de Trlomphe.

"lNQ^8«T^rTfl¥"ENQLI8H. «l*adom Is a Slot FUue If Kaow tfce LaasT*****" That hackneyed American maiden who said London was a nice place if you knew the language was not a bit absurd. We speak English, but we have built up our forms of English ezpresslon upon the English of a few shires of the old country as It was spoked between two and three centuries ago, while they have been blending and changing the speech of all their home peoples during the same period. The result is that an American can hardly utter a sentence In England without calling attention to the difference between his speech and that of the people about him. Only yesterday, after 18 months^ residence in England, I rushed up to a conductor in Charing Cross station apd asked, "Which car for Bromley?" He stared at me, and I knew I had spoken a foreign tongue to him, because street vehicles like omnibuses and horse cars are called road cars and tram cars, and there are no other cars in England. If you ask a guest at your home in England whether he likes his meat rare, he asks what you said because be does not understand you. He calls meat underdone when it Is not thoroughly cooked. If you tell blm you fear the asparagus is canned, he is at a loss aga}n, because he would have said it was tinned. To ask him to pass tbe powdered sugar will again set blm to wondering, for be calls it icing sugar generally, though he knows that It is sometimes called caster or sifted sugar. And if you have candy on the table you may not call it so without betraying your foreign origin, for he calls candy "sweets," abbreviated from "sweetmeats," and used to designate all preserves, puddings, pies, candles and jams. To go further along the eccentricities of English at the dining table most persons know, I suppose, that the beet Is called beet root, cornstarch is corn flour, corned beef (or a particular cut* of it) is called "silver sides of beef" and napkins are serviettes,—Julian Ralph In Harper's JSIagaaJpe, Business Pointers.

On May 27 the Germans renewed the offensive with a powerful attack between the Alsne and the Marne. In a day they swept over the Chemln-des- Dames on the heightB north of the Alsne and crossed the river In a rush. Next they took Soissons and reached the Vesle. On they went to the Marne, extending their front on the river from Chateau-Thierry to Veraeull, and threatening Reims in their advance. The drive was baited with the Germans- occupying a front 16 miles wide on the Marne. In the meantime the Americans, had won--attention on May 28 by taking Cantlgny on the Picardy front m a brilliant attack. On May 25, German U-boats began operations off the coast of the United States, sinking 11 ships, The German drive for Paris was resumed but the turning point was reached when on June 6 and 7 American marines were thrown across the path of the advancing army at Chateau- Thierry.

MeanwhUe the driveon the west front continued, and the Germans were driven from u ^ ' s m i i d that they bad held since 1S14. The Hlndenburgline was smashed at many oolnts Pershing's men broke the foe s main line of defense west of the Meuse and after days of bitter fighting cleared the Germans out of Argonne forest. The Germans were forced to abandon the Chemln des Dames and to retreat on a long line from ^aon as far east as Argonne. Germany sent another note to President Wilson on October 12, accepting the latter's 14 peace principles and urging the president to transmit its proposal for an armistice to the allies. The answer of the allied armies to the German peace proposals was to deliver sttU harder blows at the retiring enemy. In the north the Belgian, army, led by King Albert, co-operating with the British, began to sweep the Germans" from the Belgian coast.

He carried the Candle of the lord. It led him to a height of self-forgetfulpesa achieved by enty two othersC-Washtngton and Lincoln. Yet I have been surprised by the profound and general ignorance of this generation regarding the career of Silas Wright. The distinguished senator who served at his side for many years, Thomas H. Benton of Missouri, has €his to say of Silas Wright in his Thirty Years' View: "He refused cabinet appointments un- ' der his fast friend Van Buren and under Polk, whom he may be said to have elected. He refused a seat on the bench of the Supreme court of the United States; he rejected instantly the nomination in 1844 for vice president; he refused to be put in nomination for the presidency. He spent that time in declining office which others did in winning it The offices he did accept, it might well be said, were thrust upon him. He was born great and above office and unwillingly descended to it." So much by way of preparing the reader to meet the great commoner in these page a There were those who accused Mr. Wright of being a spoilsman, the only warrant for which claim would seem to he his remark in a letters **Whe» our enemies accuse us of feeding our friends Instead of them never let them He In telling the story."

I know, now, how dearly Aunt Deel toyed her brother and me. I must have been a great trial to that woman of forty unused to the psanks of children and the tender offices of a mother. Naturally I turned from her to my Uncle Peabody as a refuge and s help in time of trouble, with increasing fondness. He bad no knitting or sewing to do and when Uncle Peabody sat m the house he gave an his time to me and we weathered many a storm together as we sat silently in his favorite corner, of an evening, when 1 always went to sleep In his arms. I was seven years old when Uncle Peabody gave me the watermelon seeds. I put one of them in my mouth and bit It "It appears to me there's an awful draft blowin' down your throat," said Uncle Peabody. "You ain't no business eatin' a melon seed." "Why?" was my Query. "'Cause It was made to put In the grdund. Didn't you know it was alive?" "Alive 1" I exclaimed. "Alive," said he, "I'll show ye."

One There were tears in my eyes when I asked: "They'll bring it back, won't t h e y r "Never!" said Uncle Peabody, *Tm afraid they've et It up." ' He had no sooner said it than a' cry broke from my lips, and I sank down upon the grass moaning and sobbing. I lay amidst the rains of the simple faith of childhood. It was as if the world and all its joys had come fo an end. < Aunt Deel spoke in a low, kindly tone and came and lifted me to my feet very tenderly. ' "Come, Bart, don't feel so about that old melon," said she, "it ain't worth It. Come with me. I'm going to give you a present—ayes I be!" I was still crying when she too* me to her trunk, and offered th« grateful assuagement of candy and a belt all embroidered with blue and whije beads.

If it be the problem of how a little company of seventy persons could become an host of six hundred thousand men in so short a time, let us remember that God promised it, and all difficulties will vanish.

I called for help and uncle came and found me on the floor and put ma back in bed again. For a long time I thought that the way a man punished a boy Was by thumping his bed. I knew that women had a different and less satisfactory method, for J remembered that my mother had spanked me and Aunt Deel had a way of giving my hands and head a kind of watermelon thump with the middle finger of her right hand and wtth a curious look in her eyes. Uncle Peabody used to call it a "snaptlous look." Almost always he whacked the bed with his slipper. „ There were exceptions, however, and, by and by, I came to know In each case the destination of the slipper, for if I had done anything which really afflicted my conscience that strip of leather seemed to know the truth, and found its way to my person. Aunt Deel toiled incessantly. She washed and scrubbed end polished and dusted and sewed end knit from morning until night She lived in mortal fear that company would come and find her unprepared—Alma Jones «t Jabez Lincoln and his wife, or Ben and] Mary Humphries, or "Mr. and Mm, Horace Dunkelberg.** These were the) people of whom she talked when the neighbors came in and when she was not talking of the Bayneses. I observed that she always said "Mr, and Mrs, worst thing that a walertiit-ios v«" acquire while it is on the vine. I invited everybody that came to the house to go and see my watermelon. They looked it over and said pleasant things about i t When I was a boy people used to treat children and watermelons with a like solicitude. Both were a subject for jests and produced similar reactions In the human countenance. At last Uncle Peabody agreed, with me that It was about time to pick the melon. I decided to pick it immediately after meeting on Sunday, so that I could give it to my aum> and uncle at dinner-time. When we got home I ran for the garden. My feet and those of our friends and neighbors had literally worn a path to the melon. In eager haste I got my lKtle wheelbarrow and ran with It to the end of that path.. There I found nothing but broken vines I The melon had vanished. I ran back to the house almost overcome by a feeling of alarm, for I had thought long of that hour of pride when I should bring the melon and present It to my aunt and uncle. ~ "Uncle Peabody," I shouted, **my melon is gone." "Well, I van!" said he, ^somebody most V stole It" "But it waa my melon," I said with s trembling voice* s"Yes, and I rum it's too bad!

"Here's your tea. Don't you ever come here again." I took the tea and started down the road weeping. What a bitter day that was for me I I dreaded to face my aunt and uncle. Coming through the grove down by our gate I met Uncle Peabody. With the keen in* sight of the father of the prodigal son he had seen me coming "a long way off" and shouted: "Well, here ye be—I was kind o' worried, Bub." Then his eye caught the look of dejection in my gait and figure. He hurried toward me. , He stopped as 1 came sobbing to his feet "Why, what's the matter?" he asked gently, as he took the tes cup from ray hand, and sat down upon his heels.

This mandate seems to have been given shortly before Moses was born. This plan likewise was foiled* and the very child who when a man upset his throne, was sheltered and nurtured In his own palsce. IV. The Birth snd Education of Moses (2:1-8). The measure which was designed to destroy the Hebrew menace, also brought to Pharaoh's palace and educated there the very man who afterward shattered the Egyptian power and set free the enslaved people. The faith of Moses' parents caused them to; Ignore the command of the king and hide him for three months (Hebrews 11:28). Faith In God is the antidote for fear (Psalms 27:1).

P u r i n e the week the elimice sbntild he 1 continued until by the end of the week only separated milk is fed.

The cmantity ferl enn be gradually increased until IS to 20 pnund> a rlriy aro driven. It is usually not economical to feed mere t l . i n this unless milk Is very plentiful. T h e time t h a t milk should be discontinued depends upon its cost in relation to the value of the calf, Its breed, size, visor, etc. T h e season in which it reaches the age of six months and t h e other feeds available a t t h a t time must also be t a k e n into consideration. Six months is probably a good a v e r a g e age at which to wean calves from milk. When t h e best of hay, silage, and a good variety of •grains a r e available, the calf m a y be weaned earlier t h a n when such feeds are tacking. T h e season of good, succulent pasturage pre* sents the best possible condition for weaning a calf, and when t h i s exists the calf c a n be weaned earlier than when it is lacking.

There .were stiU some to be finished—In fact there were many to be finished, but none of them were worried, for they knew perfectly well that Santa Claus never left *any toys unfinished/ That was the wonderful part of Santa Claus. He could be rushed and hurried and he could be so busy that you wondered how It was possible for him to do so much and you might think, if you didn't know, that some of those many, many things wouldn't be done. But the toys knew, for the tools which Santa used to make them with whispered to them many secrets. "He may be busy," the tools always told the new toys, "but he'll finish you and you'll go to the children on Christmas day." "We're sure he'll finish us," the toys now said, "for not only.have the tools told us' so, but we can see from his dear, Jolly smiling face that everything is going to be done. He wouldn't be so smiling If he were worried over things not being finished; he is simply very, very busy and that Is why he Is working so." For no matter how hard Santa Claus may work beforehand, there are always so many things which have to be lpft until the end. Children then decide what they hope they will get for Christmas, and write Santa letters. The letters have to be read, and each child, every child has to have his or her own little list made out.

Each one of them is "sized up" by experts. Both the packer's buyer and the commission salesman must judge what amount of meat each animal will yield, and how fine it will be, the grading of the hide, and the quantity and quality of the fat. Both must know market conditions for live stock and meat throughout the country. The buyer must know where the different qualities, weights, and kinds of cattle can be best marketed as beef.

Mr. Peter was very high-handed with her, but he stood in awe of her, too. Still he never would let her engage his second servant, a privilege that she coveted. In his younger days a "hired girl" received as wages $2 a week if she could milk; $1.50 if she could not. By the time Mr. Peter was established in stately bachelor housekeeping, no girl was any longer expected to milk, and few knejv how. But when engaging it servant, if he did not like the applicant's looks, Mr, Peter would say: "Can you milk?H Of course she could not, and there the mutter would end.
