The majority of the criminal eases will be tried this term and but a few of the law cases have gone over. Indications a n that the term will be a long one. There were two liquor cases against Conrad Mehleubacher, one of which was tried in the bat term, when the jury dis- agreed. That case was nolle pressed, and he plead guilty in the other caw Tuesday, fie will be sentenced next Monday. The cases of the People vs. Nicholas Hauck and Carl Smith, of Owosso, charg- ed with violation or the liquor law, are ready for trial Henry Stores was charg? ed with resisting an officer and plead not guilty Monday morning and was remand- ed to jail in default of bail. In the after- noon he changed his plea to guilty and wis fined S15. George Chambers, of Vernon, charged with burglary, pleaded not guilty and was remanded. James Riley, who is charged with the larceny of several boats from Morrice) stood mute. He furnished no bond ana was remanded. The law case of Oren L. Bessihger, an infant, and the case of W. L. Calkins vs. Oren L. Bessinger, are both continued to the next term. Although on the calendar, the case of Ambrose G. Cowle* vs. the Village of Durand will »<>i be heard by a jury. The case of Maggie Sherman vs. Jennie Rust las been continued. The court appointed attorneys to repre- sent the defendant* in the following cases: For Henry Stores, charged with TCS sting on officer, Fred J.

A divorce was granted in the case of Florence against Frank Case. Case did not appear in couit to answer to the charge* made against him by his wife. Roy R. Durham was attorney for Mrs. Case. Four jurors were excused by the Court Tuesday morning for various reasons. They were George Charietoa, M. H. Par- sons, A. €. Howard and W. B. Schad. The four extra jurors drawn were John G. Ab.es, Wellinfton £ge and H. C. McQoinefts, of Owosso City, and Joseph Bradley, of GwOmv township. The esse of Morris and Tower Jackson against Mrs, Cephise Bannister was settled Monday when she paid the judgment se- cured against her by the Jaskaons in the last term of court. The trouble arose over the fad that a heavy rain damaged the contents of a store owned by Mrs, Bannister in Owosso, whOe the Jackson* were putting on a roof. The case of the People vs. Louis Suthar land, of Morrice, charged with violation of the liquor law, is now on trial. It is claimed that Sutherland sold liquor with- out a license.

The paper's comment upon the matter is not favorable. Draheim is the Eestoe young man who about a year ago was oat at night with his younger brother, Albert, his father, uncle and another man, in a double seated rig. The party got liquor at Layton Cor- ners and it was pretty conclusively shown that Ernest and his younger brother at- tacked his uncle and the other man, fol- lt,wi lg a quarrdl over a bottle. The two men were so bally stabbed with a knife that it was long before they were : able to l^ave the house. Ernest pleaded guilty to the charge preferred against him, but the case against his brother was nolle prossed. Judge Miner sentenced the elder of the young men February 1, ,1909, to from one to five years in the Ionia reformatory. Draheim s father was in Comma recent- ly to see what he could do to secure bis son's release. As the latter has be n well behaved while in prison it is probable that according to custom he will be paroled when the year named a* the minimum of his sentence expires. If paroled he will be required to report periodically to some man who will act as his best friend, giv- ingan account ot his habits, his occupa- tion, etc He must make application for parole in person. Since the crime wa? committed the Dra- heims h*ve moved from Easton to the neighborhood of Chesaning. The men in the family are not popular there. Before the stabbing occurred »otne, ot them were fined by a C*w*aniag justice of the peace for attacking their horse on the road, cut- ting the animal's throat with a knife and then beating it with a fence board until it died. The carcass was thrown into a ditch and covered With grass. After the stabbing affair Ernest Dra- heim tried to escape, but was captured by Sheriff Watson's men when about to take a boat across Lake Michigan.

Some important announcements have been made duving the past few i days to the people of this vicini ty wbcii jit is authoritavely stated that the Coal fields north of this city will be .opened up, and that the eoal mine spur of the Grand Trunk will be ex- tended through these fields and to JSew Lothrop. Tod Klrjcald, of this city, acting for Calumet capital, has seen-ed leases ot about TOO acres of coal laud adjacent to the otd Corcun* Coal Co. mines, and that a shaft will be stmk there and mining started oh an extensive scale. , \ . The extettfoo of the Grand Trunk spur ttarouffu the coal fields tc New Lothrop is being brought about by the prospective mining company, the Saginaw Coal Co. and the Owosso and Mt. Clemens sugar companies. / Hundreds of acres of land in Cale- donia, New Haven and Hazelton townships have been secured by these mining companies, and an outlet for shipping is of vast importance. Coal I tests have been made on the lands, and it is declared that heavy veins are found a 1 ! through that section. j The extension of the railroad to 'New Lothrop is something that will j be of inestimable benefit to the clti zoos of that scetios. It would mean that the farmers would have an out- let for their products, and that an j elevator would soon be doing business in that vicinity. The necessary right of way has been secured for a considerable part of the distance, in fact, up to within about three miles of New Lothrop, The proposed line is directly north from Kerby, for a distance of about eUtut or nine miles, and then takes an east- erly course. New Lothrop people are t^ore than elated at the prospect, of pelting a railroad and will extend every Induce- ment to the promoters. If the rail- road should not exteud into that place, an elevator would be built at the end of the spur, and this would be a hard blow for Hazelton's Tillage. With a railroad the people would not have to drive to jftet out of town. J. E. Barnes, of Saginaw, is looking aftet the matter for the Saginaw company, and is t^e man who has done all the leasing of land. He says that the road is a certainty. The company has already expended a large amount of money and the proposition Sticms^o be a sure thing. The proposed line Is through some of the best farming land in the coun- ty, thickly settled, and the freight and psssecger business will be of goodly proportions. 6LEUEBS WttE HERE.

HAWKINS HOME Aaasal MSd-Wfater Meeting HaU at the Cent Hone* Saturday, The annual mid-winter meeting of the Shiawassee county Gleaners' As- sociation Was held at the supervisors' room in the court house Saturday af- ternoon. The meeting was called to o^er at 1 o'clock by President B. W. Mattoon, of Shiawassee. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year:— President, B. W. Mattoon. 1st Vice President, F. A.Thompson. 2d Vice President, F. A. Baese. Secretary and Treasurer, Mrs. Mary Day Marshal, T. J. Hicks. The. coGcrmittee on arrangements consists of Cbas. Shadbolt, Than Perry, Cbas. VanAustin. The other committee which will look after the program for the summer picnic con- sists of Mr*. F. D. Satton and Mrs. G. S. Kentfield. Another meeting will be held in March for the purpose of adopting resolutions concerning state and local affairs. The county association is in a flour- ishing condition at the present time. ' It. consists cf nineteen'arbors, wbish i English Law Forbids It, but Success is Possible Through State Department. The fact that the remains of the late Mrs. W: M. Hawkins, danrhter of Mr. and Mjs. A. W. Green, of this city, have not been brought home, is owing to a law which forbids toe removal of the dead from India. The family here and Dr. Hawkins at Bangalor have done all in their pawet to arrange for the return of the remains to this dty, but their efforts thus far hava been unavailing. Arthur C. Green, brother of Mrs. Haw kins, has been to Chicago, where he had an interview with the British cvonsel, who(explained the international coraphea- tions that have prevented the compliance with the wishes of the family. Efforts will now be made, through the proper channels, to secure the permission of the English government for the removal of the body from India. This is the last re- sort and friends of the family hope it wiH be successful. The assistance of Senator Barrows is being sought to bring the mat- ter to the attention of the state department, asking it to interest the American Ambas- sador at St. James Court to intercede and secure if possible favorable action. Mrs. Hawkins died January 7th and the remain* were prepared for shipuientjbom* with the expectation that there would be no^dimculty in securing a permit. Claims Ordered Paid The board of director* of the Shiawas- see Mutual Fire Insurance Co., in session here Friday; ordered paid the claims of C. E. Godfrey, of Antrim township, t700. Mr. Godfrey* home was desiroyel by fire several weeks ago The claim of II. 8. Ogden, of Bennington township, for $800, was also paid as per the decision of the stockholders in the annual convention here a short time ago. Mr Ogdcn'i claim had been turned down by the board on the grounds that he had violated one of the agreements of his policy, inasmuch as the house is said to have been destroy*d by ore which caught from sparks from a threshing engino in which wood instead of coal was being burned. The fact that wood was used is declared to be a direct violation of the company's rules and the board refused to pay the claim unless the stockholders eo ordered.

Hale and hearty, and in possession of all of her faculties, Mrs. Hannah Watson on Monday celebrated the 89th anniversary of her. birth, with several of her children, at Owosso. The festivities took place at the home of her son, S. Z. Watson. Among those present were United States District Attorney Frank H. Watson and wife, of Detroit, Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Watson, who reside on the old homsstead in Shiawassee town- ship, and Mr. and Mrs. Frank Pea* cock and Mr. and Mrs. S. Rhodes, of Corunna. Mrs. Rhodes is Mrs. Wat- son's niece. Two other sons, Charles Watson, of Colorado, and Edward, of Nevada, were unable to attend. Bern in Syracuse, N. Y., Mrs. Wat- son was married -in 1842 to Stephen Watson, and the couple migrated at once to Michigan, and in 1850 came to Shiawassee county. They took up a 400 acre tract of land in what is now Shiawassee township. Thevountyat that time was mostly thick woods, but by laborious and persistent efforts on the part of the sturdy couple the land was cleared and they made it one of the finest farms in this section. Mrs. Watson is one of the best known of the older residents of the county, having been an active worker in some clubs and the Maple River church, since their inception. She is a well re*d woman and a bright con* vemtiooalist. A visit to the Watson home la always considered a treat by her almost numberless friends. In spite of her advanced age, Mr*.

The extettfoo of the Grand Trunk spur ttarouffu the coal fields tc New Lothrop is being brought about by the prospective mining company the Saginaw Coal Co and the Owosso and Mt Clemens sugar companies

Hundreds of acres of land in Caleshydonia New Haven and Hazelton townships have been secured by these mining companies and an outlet for shipping is of vast importance Coal

I tests have been made on the lands and it is declared that heavy veins are found a1 through that section

j The extension of the railroad to New Lothrop is something that will j be of inestimable benefit to the clti zoos of that scetios I t would mean

bull that the farmers would have an outshylet for their products and that an

j elevator would soon be doing business in that vicinity

The necessary right of way has been secured for a considerable part of the distance in fact up to within about three miles of New Lothrop The proposed line is directly north from Kerby for a distance of about eUtut or nine miles and then takes an eastshyerly course

New Lothrop people are t^ore than elated at the prospect of pelting a railroad and will extend every Induceshyment to the promoters If the railshyroad should not exteud into that place an elevator would be built at the end of the spur and this would be a hard blow for Hazeltons Tillage With a railroad the people would not have to drive to jftet out of town

J E Barnes of Saginaw is looking aftet the matter for the Saginaw company and is t^e man who has done all the leasing of land He says that the road is a certainty The company has already expended a large amount of money and the proposition Sticms^o be a sure thing

The proposed line Is through some of the best farming land in the counshyty thickly settled and the freight and psssecger business will be of goodly proportions

English Law Forbids It but Success is Possible Through State

Department

The fact that the remains of the late Mrs W M Hawkins danrhter of Mr and Mjs A W Green of this city have not been brought home is owing to a law which forbids toe removal of the dead from India

The family here and Dr Hawkins at Bangalor have done all in their pawet to arrange for the return of the remains to this dty but their efforts thus far hava been unavailing

Arthur C Green brother of Mrs Haw kins has been to Chicago where he had an interview with the British cvonsel who(explained the international coraphea-tions that have prevented the compliance with the wishes of the family Efforts will now be made through the proper channels to secure the permission of the English government for the removal of the body from India This is the last reshysort and friends of the family hope it wiH be successful The assistance of Senator Barrows is being sought to bring the matshyter to the attention of the state department asking it to interest the American Ambasshysador at St James Court to intercede and secure if possible favorable action

Mrs Hawkins died January 7th and the remain were prepared for shipuientjbom with the expectation that there would be no^dimculty in securing a permit

Claims Ordered Paid The board of director of the Shiawasshy

see Mutual Fire Insurance Co in session here Friday ordered paid the claims of C E Godfrey of Antrim township t700 Mr Godfrey home was desiroyel by fire several weeks ago The claim of II 8 Ogden of Bennington township for $800 was also paid as per the decision of the stockholders in the annual convention here a short time ago

Mr Ogdcni claim had been turned down by the board on the grounds that he had violated one of the agreements of his policy inasmuch as the house is said to have been destroyd by ore which caught from sparks from a threshing engino in which wood instead of coal was being burned The fact that wood was used is declared to be a direct violation of the companys rules and the board refused to pay the claim unless the stockholders eo ordered

ly Richard lifted it from its plaoa a^rt put it in Seths hands Then hlaquo turned away to thlaquo window and stood looking out whiltt tho old man opened it Richards eyes were full of tears for a love dead 50 years But Seths wele clear iind tender as he called him to Lis side

Here Dick 1 want her to have this You must put it on-herimger Tell her it does wit bind her to any promisemdashfor Richard had told him It te from me She Is it woman She will understand that 1 should like her bulltp-wcar H-he xaused

It-was a diamond In-an oldfaSluon-ed settlag the stone large aigtd haau-vifully cut Richard held it ic his hautS surprised by its beauty

How dared you keep anything so vahabie here

There was no danger Noono would look for brilliants in such a-setting TheVprdswere inarmed by a quiet smiie of irony and a glance at the room

Richards glance followed his The bare pine floor with its one strip of carpeting the few rough chairs the kjtehen stove at one end of the room and the bed with its faded quilt at the other No there had been no danger Only the rovs of bookspiled tMTo and three deep on the shelves told that the occupant of tbe room was other than a rough farmer A bowl of trailing partridge^berries that Richard had brought from the woods yesterday stood on the -western sill The setting sun fell across them and they lightened the room giving it a

worn eoihe ^emre thlaquo morning and he waited for his coining But so genshytle was his step when he came across the floor in the early dawn that Rich-aid only knew by a slight tremble of thetbin fingers resting in hiy that he oltid come and gone bearing with him aninraortai soul

Was it immortal He stepped out into the cold light of the early mornshying lie turned to the east where a faint flush of red was touching the gray sky He that would cave his life niust lose itmdashin loving he reshypeated softly

CHAPTER XV

DerriaK fomd Seth watching for his coming and raw at a glance that be waa Tery 111 Even a leas practiced eye could not have mistaken the signs The hands that lay outside the faded patchwork cover were yellow and wrinkled the veins stood out a netshywork of cords across the hacks They were the hands of an old nam Rich ard noted their feeblenes as they closed eagerly around his own strong firm fingers Seth seemed to him to have aged 20 years since he saw him last

I am glad you have come Dick I was afraid you would not get here I vautre to see you again My life has been a failure Its hard to say tiiat when you corae to die he rambled on Yours wout be a failure Dick And I helped to make it I thought perhaps I should die easier if I could look at you again and sefe something tbat I had helped to do in the world

After this first greeting he said no more of the comfort of Richards presshyence But it was evident in the glance of his eyes as they followed the young man about the room and in his restshylessness when Richard was absent for a time

Richard saw that his place was here as long as Seth needed him and he quietly made arrangements to stay for an indefinite time He established bulllimself as caretaker and nurse Yeusfe as he was bis experience of life had been deep enough for him to undershystand that it is not often that one man can do for another what his mere presence did for Seth

The old man did not speak again of himself or of approaching death But he questioned Richard eagerly about his work and the life he led Every detail of it interested him It was as If he were listening to the story of what bis own life might have been And Richard understanding by a subshytle sympathy what it meant to him gave a minute account of tho office and the men the hurry and rush of the city and the haste and true hosshypitality of the social life

A stranger looking iuto the room would not have guessed that it was soon to be the chamber of death Laughter often interrupted the reshycital Richard hraquoi often fancied that when he came to die he should not want the humor of life taken from him And the account of his Chicago life was not dehumorized for a dying man Seth listening seemed to gain a quiet strength of soul as his physical strength failed

The story of Helen and his love for her was too closely interwoven with the life of the year to be omitted even had Richard cared to do so Litshytle by little he had told it all Seth listened eagerly and questioned Dick closely He made him describe her minutelymdashher personal appearance her characteristics her likes and disshylikes her workmdasheverything thai conshycerned her As Richard talked of her the older wan would watch his f a c e -Peking something Then a smile of content would cross his face and he would close his eyes as if asleep ut when Richard stopped he woulu say Im listening

One day when they had been talkshying of her he asked Richard to open a leather trunk that stood at the foot of the heu sad hand him a box that ur^oxtunri ii--^

touch of refinement Otherwise It was unchanged from the room in vhicb Richard had received the Greek gramshymar sis years ago

Then-it had been to hint a jgtaiu rough room with a certain homely comfort Now it was the picturesque setting of a lonely life The furniture was rough but the roughness had arshytistic charm Seth must have had consciously or unconsciously an artshyists appreciation-of the beautiful As Richard looked abbut thvi room his sense of the pathos of the life that was passing away here deepened to a feeling of kinship and sympathy The long years of loneliness that were drawing to a close were his own

It was Seth who broko the silence mdashlow and half-musingly You do well to love her Dick And she will be worthy of It But If she is notmdashyou must not stop loving Love someshythingmdashsome onemdashany one Never stop lovingmdashfor your souls sake That was my mistake One woman refused to love me 1 shut royeel oft irou all love That was my mistake Mistake he said slowly I wonder if there are such things Well it spoiled my life I didnt know then that the human heart must lovemdash4r die He that would save his life must lose itmdashin loving

The twilight settled down upon the room The old man did not speak again He lay with half-closed eyes looking across the shining red berries to the western sky

Richara sat quietly by his side He did not undress or lie down He knew by a subtle intuition that a guest

CHAPTER XVI

BeforeRichard- returned1 to Chicago It was found that Seths liking for him had taken practical form He had made a will giving to Richard all the property of -which he died possessed

The fortune was not Ifrge but enough to pay his college debt raise the mortgage and leave a comfortable sum for bis mothermdash-enough indeed to make her a woman of importance in the neighborhood

She protested in a mild way when Richard proposed to settle the money on her But he had grown too mastershyful for her In the end she enjoyed the feeling of importance that an asshysured income gave her She refused to accompany him to Chicago It was ail out west to her and very far away

Derring found himself speeding toshywards Chicago wondering whether this unexpected turn of fortune would make marriage nearer for him But when they met he did not ask her They assumed the old easy relation as if there had been no separation Life sped on with days too full of content to ask promises from the future

When the timeOf parting came in June he found that he could let her go with- less dread than he had thought possible The time would not be long and with the increased freeshydom that had come to him in money affairs hpound could run east during the vacation If trouble came to her or harm he could be with her in a few hours It was with light heart that he saw her go

He had accompanied her to the train and provided her with all the comforts for the journey that love conld suggest Between the leaves of one of the books was tucked a letter He had not told her it was there She would find i t The train began to move Good-by he said hurriedly I shall come to you If you need ine In any case I shall see you soon

lie sat up late working on an arshyticle for the next day When at last tired and exhausted he threw himshyself on the bed he fell at once into a sCind Rleep He slept long and heavshyily He started up with a sense of suffocationmdashWhere was hemdashWhat was the matter^mdashWas the bouse on fire Before he was fairly awake he knew that the- room was quietmdashso quiet that he could hear the ticking of his watch Then an awful Tear came upon himmdashshe was in danger Great God how the feeling riiasterfd him He sprang up and looked at his watchmdashthree oclock He drea-ed quickly and went out-of-doors He could not stay in the house It sufshyfocated him He must move about or go Insane

Instinctively he turned towards the lake A light fresh breeze greeted him as he came to the breakwater He lifted his face to meet it It would blow these foolish notions out of his brain He had been dreaming and had been frightened by his own fancies

He slackened hi3 pace listening-to the soft lapping of the water against the breakwater and looking up to the stars Then again fear took possesshysion of him and he quickened his step until at last he broke into a run driven by an awful nameless dread

Thus he alternated between hope and fear until the first faint line of dawn appeared across the water As he stood looking at ic longing for day to break a sudden peace came uijoa him He drew a iui^k breath as the tension gave way She was safe onct more This time he did not question his mood lie knew with quiet cershytainty that all was well with her

Miss Stiffols experience with the buck deer that came hear putting the finishing touches to her occurred en the-second day of the season on one of the branches of Kettle creek

On the morning of the second day out Miss Stiff el had been on her drive for the better part of an hour when Just as she had taken the edge of a laurel thicket that stood far above her head she heard the unmistakable snort of a buck seemingly only a few yards from her She stood still sr listened when the sudden crashing of the brush away to her right attracted her attention Just in time to see a pair of does hiking out of the thicket into the open and away like a flash out of her sight

She was convinced that there must be a buck somewhere in the neighborshyhood and she crept cautiously out to the edge of the thicket where she could get a glimpse of the side of the ridge As she did so the shaking of a sapling about two rods away caught her eye and a moment later the form of a fine big uuck pushed itself out from the thicket

Miss Stiff el saw that the deer was wlaquolaquondpd_evldelaquoty having been shot in the hind part and It moved with difficulty For a moment her womanly sympathy got the better of her and fthlaquo hesitated about shooting But then a second thought told her (hat in that condition the deer would only crawl away and die or fall prey to the catamounts and she fired The deer bounded as well as it could so that it wis partly bidden behind a fallen hemlock Ueetop and when she had made A detour of a swampy place and come up within ten feet of the tree-top the deer had escaped her entirely She moved cautiously for 5gthe knew that with bis old wound and the one her bullet had inflicted the animal must toon give up (he fight for escape

Dont CougnH-Use

I O YOtJ Wish a recipe for preshyventing all worry

For g iv ing composure and freedom from hurry

Just think of one fact which i s true you will find

When anything- happens to flurry your l i i ind

First something or nothing there is to ba done

First nothing or something that s clear laquos the sun

It something then do It and m a k e oo deshylay

If nothing all thought of it cast far a w a y

This s implest of rules if youll only obey

Will tret you from wrinkles for many a day

Lord Mayors Banquets The lord mayors banquet on the

night of November 9 was to entertain his majestys ministers In the days of the Georges it was no uncommon thing for royalty to attend the banquet but this is never the case nowadays In 1814 the prince regent afterward George IV accompanied by the emshyperor of Russia and the king of Prusshysia was at the Guildhall feast and the prince was so pleased with the lavish hospitalfty of the new lord mayor tbat he made him a baronet on the spot The price paid for the honor a distinction which always has to be paid for was not inconsiderable for the dinner cost 1125000

Mr Pepys records in his diary that at the table at which he sat at a lord mayors bcrquet there were ten good dishes to a r-css and plenty of wine of all sorts but we bad no napkins no change of trenchers and drank out of earthen pitchers or wooden dishes

Berliners Flock to See Soldier There are about pound3000 soldiers In

Potsdam which isnt a great distance from Berlin and there ere always solshydiers in the German capital on guard before various palaces Besides there is a review almost every morning on the Exercirerplatz and guard mountshying every day at the Konigswache so that it might seem likely that soldiers wouldnt arouse a great deal of intershyest in Berlin

It is however quite the contrary Tbe sound of a band playing sends every one running in the direction of the music Even if it is just a small company going along the streets the loiks appear eager to watch it Whatshyever the cause soldiers apparently are an unchanging novelty In Berlin

You dont say smiled Senator Pettus Do you know I suspected it

Well I advise you not to play with them any more said Senator Frazier

But theres nobody else here to play with Querulously returned the aged senator

Older senators repeat an anecdote of Senator Pettus in which he is repshyresented as returning home after a night at cards just as the morning light was breaking He was at the time of the story 85 years oUtr and Mrs Pettus was but little younger They never addressed each other exshycept as Mr Pettus and Mrs Petshytus

An explosion wrecked the brick residence of Scott Parker one wile north of Moscow a village on a Lake Snore branch in the extreme northshyern end of HiUsdale countybullbullkilling Parker and one of his children and Injuring fcis ^ife aiid child also an aunt of the children who lived with the family Three other children of the family were out of the house The dead body of Parker was dug out of the ruins The second injured child is believed to be dying

From reports that are coming in from the exvited farmers of that vishycinity it appears that Parker went down ceilar shortly after the three older children had left home for school

He went down there to fil the tank of the acetylene gag plant is what Mrs Parker says

The aeetylene plant evidently exshyploded Mrs Parker the children Louise aged 6 and Nellie 3 and the aunt Parkers sister Were in the livshying room when there was a loud re port in the cellar the house floor heaved up and then the walls began to fall in on them The two women grabbed each a child and scrambled across the caving floor to an outer door and escaped just as the avashylanche of bricks descended on them It was their prompt flight that saved their lives As it was Mrs Parker suffered a broken leg and cuts oa the head and both of the children had both arms and legs broken Nellie died The aunt received lesser inshyjuries

Certainly it seems like carrying ccals to Newcastle to speak of exportshying oatmeal to Scotland and yet every year the Quaker Oats Company sends hundreds of thousands of cases of Quaker Oats to Great Britain and Europe

The reason -5s--smpe 7i]e tne English and Scotch have for centuries eaten oatmeal in quantities and with a regularity that has made them the most rnggtd physically and active mentally of all people the American has been eating oatmeal and trying all the time to improve the methods of manufacture so that he might get that desirable foreign trade

Experiments satisfied me some 5 years ago writes a Topeka woman that coffee was the direct cause of the insomnia from which I suffered ter ribly as well as the extreme nervousshyness and acute dyspepsia which made life a most painful thing for me

I had been a coffee drinker since childhood and did not like to think that the beverage was doing me all this harm But it was and the time came when I had to face the fact and proshytect myself I therefore gave up coffee abruptly and absolutely and adopted Posium as my hot drink at meals

I began to note improvement in my condition very soon after I took on Postum The change proceeded gradshyually but surely and it was a matter of only a few weeks before I found myshyself entirely relieved -the nervousness passed away my digestive apparatus was restored to nomn 1 efficiency and I began to sleep restfully and peaceshyfully

Three uoatiad Coaches are Submerged in RivermdashConductor fteynold Hrkgti-caliy Rescues Eight Through Roof of Dining Car

Death iu 1 its most terrible forms blotted out the lives of a t leasttwo aceie people when Your car^ of a Cashynadian Pacific passenger trail on the Sc-o branch leaped from the tracks near Sudbury Ont and went tearing down a steep embankment plunging through the ice-covered surface of the Spanish river

Suiue were drowned others were crushed to death in grinding timbers

Most terrible of all maimed and injured caught In the wreckage of one of the cars were burned to death

The exact number of dead and inshyjured was still unknown but accordshying to stories told by injured passenshygers brought to Sudbury it was one of the worst catastrophes in the hisshytory of Canadian railroads

Tbe train wrecked was known as No 7 en route from Montreal to Sault Ste Marie and Minneapolis An offishycial statement given out says that it probably was due to a broken rail

Front Cars Stay on Track The engine baggage express mail

and one second class car remained on the rails while one second class one first class a dining car and a sleeper went down the embankment The first class car and diner went into the river The sleeper and second class car stopped on the embankment the second cass car catching fire

The wreck odcurred about 37 miles west of Sudbury where the tracks cut into the side of a steep hill which is skirted by the river The forward part of the train passed over the break whatever it was in safety The day coach which was the fourth from the end of the train was the first to leave the rails bull bullgt bull

The train was running at the rate of about 40 miles an hour and the momentum carried the car down the hill in a terrific plnnge About 25 passengers were in this car and it Is practically certain that none escaped

only the roof of the day coach showed above the flowing Ice In the river The second class car the next in the train smashed against tbe end cf a culvert and was crushed to splinters Some of tbe passengers were killed outright but others caught in the wreckage which almost immediately broke into flames were roasted to death before they could be resented

Uninjured passengers and trainmen immediately turned their attention to the rescue of passengers imperiled by the fire

The telegraph lines were all torn down and It was evident that relief could flot be summoned by wire It was five miles to the village of Nairn and a drenched survivor ran the disshytance to deliver a report of the wreck at the Canadian Pacific depot

Meanwhile Conductor Thomas Reyshynolds was proving himself a hero in

rescuing eight passengers from the sunken dining car When the wreck occurred Reynolds with W J Bell and David Rrodie had just sat down for an early dinner iieii and Brodie facing the engine and Reynolds sitshyting opposite them and riding back- j wards The diner was the last ear to ] enter the water and did not sink at once but settled slowly while the passengers climbed upon the tables to keep their heads above the rising waters With several passengers standing in water to their chins the situation was desperate

Then it was that Conductor Reyshynolds made a dive to reach a window broke the glass and succeeded in risshying to the surface of the fiver outside the ar Happily he reached the Surshyface where a hole in the ice enabled him to gain a solid footing by resting one arm on the roof of the car and the other on the ice

Some Taken Through Roof Gaining the roof of the car he broke

a fan light with his fist and rescued little Alfonso Rouse] of Sault Ste Marie After the little boy came D M Brodie of Sudbury who was small enough to pass through the fan light Six more passengers who were too big to be rescued in this manner were taken out through a hole broken in the roof of the car

1 never heard snch terrible cries as when those cars went over the bank I shall never forget it as long as I live said Conductor Reynolds I put the killed at between 40 and 50 The first coach carried about 35 or 40 passengers and of this number only one man escaped

Gangs of wreckers to the number of 100 were immediately sent to the scene of the horrible disaster

A NEWTOWN EVERY WEEK

ANamp A NEW SCHOOL EVERY SCHOOL PAY

Toe above caption about represent tbe growth of Cestfral Canada The statement was made not long since by a railroad man who claimed to have made the remarkable discovery that such was the case There is not a district of agt fair amount of settleshyment n any of the three Provinces of Manitoba Saskatchewan and Alberta but has its school and the railways Lave stations every seven or eight miles apart around whieh group the towns some large and some small but each imports nt to its own district Schools ltu3 largely maintained by pubshylic funds and the expense of tuition is but a nominal sum

The final returns of the grain proshyduction for Central Canada for 1909 is now In and the figures show that the value of the crops to the farmers of that country is about 195 million dolshylars as compared with 120 million last year American farmers or those who have gone from the United States will participate largely in these splendid returns and these comprise those who have gone from nearly every State in the Union

One of tbe many proofs that might be put forward showing theimmense wealth that comes to the farmers of Central Canada is seen in tbe sum that has been spent during the past two or three months by the faraers who bare for the time being ceased worrying over the reaper and the thresher and are taking to enjoying themselves for two or three months I+gt is said that fifty thousand people of these Western Provinces spent the holiday season visiting their old homes Host of these passengers paid forty and some forty-five dollars for the round trip Some went to Great Britain some to tbe Continent others to their old homes in Eastern Canada and many thousands went to visit their friends in the States The amount paid alone in transportation would be upward of two million dollars Some make tbe trip every years It need hot be asked Can they afford it With crops yielding them a profit of $20 to $26 per acre and some having as much as twelve hundred or more across tbe question is answered Tbe Canadian Government Agents at difshyferent point in tbe State report that they have interviewed a great many of those who arc now visiting friends Jn tbe different states and they all exshypress themselves as well satisfied and promise to take tome of their friends back witb tbena There It still a lot of free homestead land in splenshydid districts and other land can be purchased st a reasonable price from railway and land companies

In Dowlaisi South Wales about fifshyteen years ago families were strickshyen wholesale by a disease known as the itch Believe me it is tbe most terrible disease of its kind that I know of as It itches all through your body and makes your life an inferno Sleep i out of the question and you feel as If a million mosquitoes were attacking yon at tbe same time I knew a dozen families that were so affected

The doctors did their best bnt their remedies were of no avail whatshyever Then the families trisd a drugshygist who was noted far and wide for bis remarkable cures People came to bim frcm all parta of the country for treatment but bis medicine made matters still worse as a last resort t iey were advised by a friend to use the Cuticura Remedies t am glad to eraquo yon that after a few days treatshyment witb Cuticura Soap Ointment and Resolvent tbe effect was wondershyful and tbe result was a perfect cere m all cases

I may add that my three brothers t i ree sisters myself and all our famshyilies hare been users of the Cuticura Remedies for fifteen years Thomas Hugh 1650 West Huron St Chicago Hi June 29 1909

IDEA NOT LEO Br M L p B S

Federal License of Corporations i$ Opposed by Many in

Congress

UNLIKELY TG BE MADE UW

Pension Bills Introduced Providing for VolunUer Retired ListmdashTwo Pft Its Want Exposition Marking tfca Canal Opening

WashingtonmdashTb Republican leadshyers in congress practically httve agreed that if it can be accomplished the majority of the Presidents recom-mendaticus shall be enacted into law at this session but there is growing evidence that anions the minority of the recommendations which are to be overlooked the Presidents wish that a law legalizing the federal licensing of incorporations may not be fulfilled at this session In telling Mr Taft that it la unlikely that MB federal licence law is to go through the leaden have made a tacshyit promise that at a future date probshyably at the next session the lecora-mendamption shall be taken up and put through i s some form Xt seems that the plan for the licensing of corporashytions by the federal government has aroused antagonism among some of the Republicans and among a majorshyity of the Democrats it Is understood also that the leading Republicans men who ordinarily can get the rest of the party representatives in line are not over-zealous in their desire that this bill shall become a law cershytainly not at the present time It la Impossible in the absence of any dishyrect statement of the reasons for their objections to tell why it Is that the leaders apparently are determined to postpone action upon this particular piece of legislation but It seems to be assured that consideration of it Is to be postponed until a more convenishyent season

It has beett pretty generally undershystood that bip subsidy was to have hard sailing through the waters of the lower house of congress and not very easy sailing through those of the upshyper house It is impossible of course to foretell just what the fate of subshysidy will be but it seems that one senator who in the cast has been the champion of subsidy this year Is not inclined to look with favor upon i t The senator in question Is Mr Prye of Maine who apparently does not think that the measure recommended by the President and already introshyduced into the house goes anywhere near far enough to suit the shipping interests President Taft has recomshymended legislation of this klcd but the feciling Is in Washington that he will not be particularly disappointed if it does not go through although of course its passage would add one more to the administration victories

Postal Savings Banks One of the most peculiar situations

is that in regard to postal savings banks Much has been written about this matter and in the main former opinion was that the postal savings bank bill might have great trouble in getting sanction for itself from the leaders of both houses As everybody knows the members of the national monetary commission would prefer that consideration of the postal savshyings bank bill should be put off until after the commission has made its reshyport President Taft however Is inshysistent that postal savings bank legisshylation shall be enacted this winter and it is believed to-day that the leaders have agreed uraquo accede to his wishes as they have also agreed to do what he wants them to do in the matter of amendments to the intershystate commerce law and of laws which will safeguard the interests of the nations natural resources

Bills for Veterans Before the military committee of

the house of representatives there are eight principal bills Intended to benefit the veterans of the civil war In several of them there is a specific provision for the creation of what is called a volunteer retired list for the civil war officers who are still living

In the sects tive

Sixteenth congress Repre-Beeman 0 Dawes of Ohio

introduced a bill which if it had beshycome a law would have put all the commissioned officers of the civil war on the veMred list with month-Iy pay of one-half that which they received while they were wearing swords in the field There is a reshytired list for regular officers and the idea of Representative Dawes was to give to the volunteer officers in their

old age a recognition in part at least o the value of their services as com-nilssioned officers The question seemed io be if tbe regulars are paid after retirement why not do the same thing for the volunteers

Representative Dawes is not now In Congress but the provision in his bill which was Intended to carcopy for the volunteer officers has been incor porated in several of the bills which j re now before the military commitshytee for action It seems probable it-4 gt ^nz firtngrrsa will vgtR n

man who wore a bar a leaf an eagle or a star on his shoulder dvring the civil war and who is alive to-day will

as though they were still fighting in the field

Substitute for Pensions Of course pensions assuchfor the

volunteers will brgt done away with if any of tbese bills passes congress because the retired pay will take the pensions place

Likely to Carry $raquo a raquocopyrttfc If the volunteer officers retired bill

passes it is possible that it will carry with it a pension giving enlisted men ol the civil war a pension of $40 per month fijfth sit present pensions be-tug abolished except in cases of total or almost total disability where the present sum paid to the disabled solshydiers exceed 40 per month With the officers and eullstea men and the widows cared for with these specific sums in each case the trouble of penshysion gradations and the chances of fraud are minimised but nevertheless it will cost a huge sum of money the first few years of the measures legai life

According to a classification made by Gen Green B Raum the volunteer officers who would benefit are In number and rank as follows Major generals two brigadier generals 28 colonels 151 lieutenant colonels 195 majors 309 captains 2633 first lieushytenants 2233 second lieutenants 1166-varlons ranks in the navy 160 this bringing the total up to the numshyber given above

Of course a full expression of opinshyion of desirability of such a retired Bat bill as this is not obtainable Soldiers and those who take an interest in mil itary affairs generally are much in fashyvor of the measure The crrtUans who never saw service do not express opinions on the matter in letter form for it seems that few people care to go on record as being opposed to any thing in the nature of a bill for the rcattf of the men who fought In the Heidi even though there may he and probably la a general feeling among civilians that the government is exshytravagant in the matter of pension naytnents

Rivalry for Exposition San Francisco and San Diego cities

of California each wants to be the teent of a great exposition In the year 1915 as a means of marking the opening of the Panama canal Represhysentative Kahn of California has Inshytroduced into tbe house a bill which is now before the committee on inshydustrial arts and expositions to proshyvide for what he designates as the Panama-Pacific exposition Represhysentative Smith of California on beshyhalf of the city of San Diego desires that U shall be the location of what he wishes to be called the Panama-California exposition

It is too early yet to tell whether congress will vote money for governshyment participation in any exposition on the Pacific coast or elsewhere to be held at tbe time of the canal openshying It is assured however that there will be a great celebration on the Tsthmu of Panama at the time that Col Goethala sets for the completion of the great work Early as the day la it la believed that the president of the United States and both houses of congress will go to Panama to give recognition to the completion of the canal Whether or hot there shall be a great exposition in the United States 1ST a matter yet to be decided but it must be said that California shows that it is very much in earnest in the matter of getting the governments sanction for a great exposition of arts industries and manufactures on the Pacific coast in the year 1915 when It la practically assured the Inter-oceanic canal will be open for traffic

Few Bills Before Congress Considering the fact that this Is a

long session of congress comparativeshyly few bills have been introduced into either house or senate There is a marked absence at this session of what is known as freak bills Memshybers of congress are urged constantly by constituents some of whom are a little unbalanced mentally or who beshylong to the class of extreme enthusishyasts to put in bills which no congress possibly could be brought to pass and no committee could be made even to consider These so-called freak bills are introduced by members simply to escape the constant appeals of those who want their measures at least to see the light of print

In congress there is this winter anshyother determined effort to lay the groundwork for a plan which when carshyried to ultimate completion will result in a great boulevard running from the city of Washington to the battlefield of Gettysburg It is the intention If sanction for such a great avenue can be secured to have it known as a memorial of Lincoln A survey he been made of a road from Washington to Gettysburg in a straight line beshytween the capitol and the central point of the famous battlefield and it has been found that tbe road can be bunt without much interference with private property As a matter of fact the people who live along the way have expressed a desire that the work should be carried to completion

Approve Memorial Project There are many old soldiers and

men in ofScial gtife whose memories go back to tbe Lincoln days and some of whom knew Lincoln personally who think that the noble roadway would be the best possible memorial to the war- time president good deal of sentiment in favor of the proposition has been aroused ft the country alshythough it Should be said that considershyable opposition has been developed r n f d u l flpi5raquo J^Oplft raquoltflitj fgt thTT

three or four hundred girls who had filled the college buildings and camshypus with their bright earnest lhfe nci more thaa a Aoxeh remaiocd ftrid all but one of these had their tru-tks packed for speedy departute This one was Mary Cathcart who did uot kcow where she could go if she did PpoundCk -mdashmdash^-

Tbianiornlbg she was standing near the entrance of the lecture hail wonshydering what she should do For ten days t i e had been looking hopefully for a Jitter but none had come NGne seemed likely to come now

She had not specially fitted herself for anything and she rather looked forward to coming back after the sumshymer holidays to take a postgraduate course when if It should seem best she would study for one of the half-dozen railings which many of her schoolmates were already entering upon But it ail depended upon the letter and the letter had not come

A girl but little older than herself came briskly from the building It wasect the French teacher and she waft now going straight to the station to take the next train for home Mary looked at her a little eartonaly

Where do yon got aafeed the teacher

To Loagley Two hours later she was at the stashy

tion and had purchased a ticket She had money enough to pay her exshypenses for a month Beyond that she did not know

Whom should she find st Longley Should she even find anybody A letshyter which had come to her after her mothers death more than four years before bidding her to enter upon a course at this college and stating that money would he sent to her from time to time as before was all she had to go by The letter had been postshymarked Longley

She had always been generously supplied and had furnished her room

1-4 Off

well and had had money to spend Then as the end of the course apshyproached she had confidently looked forward to another letter But none bad come The one postmarked Long-ley was her only clew and even that might have been mailed by some one passing through the place

Her mother had thought the money might come from a wealthy uncle who had had some disagreement with the family and who took this wamp7 of savshying his pride He was eccentric and fond of traveling about from place to place

All tt through her mind as tbm train rushed on At length Long-ley was called and Mary rose and hurried out to the little platform of a small country station

The station master was dragging her trunk back from the edge of the platform where it had been dropped She went to him

There are no Cathcarta here of course she said more as an assershytion than as a question

No guess not never heered of any Be you lookin up some

Tmdashbulles I thought I might find a relshyative here When is the next train

Not till to-morrer She drew a long breath Is there a hotei near Factry boardin house but I guess

A V v bull-- y ijuctuvi- a good -EE7 y^ars bc^re she died Is he very ill Aldry ashed as she went inside gt

Well no not so very now Hes gettin beiter slowly

She was right Mary did Uke it She remembered many of the tempting dishes which she had prepared for her motherland she made them now stagshying little snatches of song as she did so She had not known what she was fitted for Now she knew that she could be a good nurse Perhaps she could also be good at other things but she had not found that out yet

What surprised her most were the books in every room some of which even she looked at with awe They all showed marks of much use as well as lovtag care gt As the days went by these eyes beshygan to follow her as she moved softly about the room contented and lovingshyly at first then with a questioning wlattulnees as though the clouded mind were striving to grasp something it could not quite reach Then one day there were several minutes when the eyes grew clear and intelligent and gazed at her with almost startled wonshyder The next day the lucid Interval was longer and several times repeatshyed But he did not speak he only gazed at her and passed his hand across hhi brow from time to timet

Then came a morning when he was strong enough to sit up In bed but still the wistfulness and wonder reshymained In his eyes

You are a new nurse he said Yes 1 knew it of course but I havent

said anything Imdash-I have been trying to get my mind clear I thought as I got stronger my mind would get betshyter bat it doesnt ImdashIm afraid Its getting worse I suppose Im growshying old and its to be expected but Fve bees planning fcr a good deal of reading and study yetgt and haveut realised how the years slip by

Mary stroked his hand softly T o n cannot get weU at once Mr

Farrar she chUed Yon hare been vary sick you know But you are growing stronger gradually and your brain is growing clearer I can see t t -

Tou dont understand he anshyswered gently my bodys stronger but my mind doesnt seem to gain It made you out to be somebody else from the first and has persisted in the hallucination ever sine Ive tooked in other directions and changed my thoughts to other things but its no use Youve takes care of me so my mind says that youre someshybody whom I used to know a long time ago whos dead I suppose its what folks call second childhood Then changing the subject abruptly How long have I been sick

I do not know I have only been here two weeks It is now the fifshyteenth of July

He looked startled So late he gasped Why Imdash

Ive got a little girl off to school who ought to have been written to long ago Will you bring me my pen and paper from the desk

Let me do It for you she said taking the pen from his shaking finshygers and moving a small table close to his bedside

But he remained silent looking at her doubtiuily ImdashImdashyou see 1 dont write to her directly he said at length hesitatingly Theres an old friend In New York who acts for me He was silent for some minutes longer then went on desperately

The letter must be written and I suppose itll be best to explain things a little You see when I was laquo boy I had a strong notion for college but

settled with the books I liked to read and had lost ambition to go out into the orld But I didntnsive up the idea altogether I would send someshybody la my place_ So I looked round I had no relative save a little girl whom I used to play with when a boy She had married and gone west I traced her and found that her husshyband was dead and that she was an invalid without means That was something nearer than college so I sent her from time to time what monshyey I had to spare When she died I arranged for her girl to go to college

He paused with his gae upon the coverlet his eyes unobservant dreamy reminiscent

Mary had risen her eyes shining Why didnt you write to her direct

iy she breathed Well she was a college girl you

see with college girl notions I liked to think of her as my girl arid to plan things for her If Id written to her directly itmdashmight have been different You see Im just a man of all work In a factory He held up his hands white and transparent from his illness but still knotty and hard from a lifeshytime of toll I dont know much about girls he went on but I want to think of this one as mine and I cant bear the thought of her evermdash

Mr Farrar do you think any girl could be ashamed of you

The quick passionate cry brought his gaze suddenly from the coverlet What he reau in her voice in her eyes brought a lok of rapt understanding to his face

Then my mind isnt wandering he exclaimed tremulously Its she really and truly Mary bring me that tin box in my desk

She brought it and eagerly he ran his fingers through the contents soon finding a tintype which he opened and held up for her inspection It might have been her own picture so exact was the likeness She recognised H with a low cry

I t s your mother Mary he said softly takes Just before h went west

ly Richard lifted it from its plaoa a^rt put it in Seths hands Then hlaquo turned away to thlaquo window and stood looking out whiltt tho old man opened it Richards eyes were full of tears for a love dead 50 years But Seths wele clear iind tender as he called him to Lis side

Here Dick 1 want her to have this You must put it on-herimger Tell her it does wit bind her to any promisemdashfor Richard had told him It te from me She Is it woman She will understand that 1 should like her bulltp-wcar H-he xaused

It-was a diamond In-an oldfaSluon-ed settlag the stone large aigtd haau-vifully cut Richard held it ic his hautS surprised by its beauty

How dared you keep anything so vahabie here

There was no danger Noono would look for brilliants in such a-setting TheVprdswere inarmed by a quiet smiie of irony and a glance at the room

Richards glance followed his The bare pine floor with its one strip of carpeting the few rough chairs the kjtehen stove at one end of the room and the bed with its faded quilt at the other No there had been no danger Only the rovs of bookspiled tMTo and three deep on the shelves told that the occupant of tbe room was other than a rough farmer A bowl of trailing partridge^berries that Richard had brought from the woods yesterday stood on the -western sill The setting sun fell across them and they lightened the room giving it a

worn eoihe ^emre thlaquo morning and he waited for his coining But so genshytle was his step when he came across the floor in the early dawn that Rich-aid only knew by a slight tremble of thetbin fingers resting in hiy that he oltid come and gone bearing with him aninraortai soul

Was it immortal He stepped out into the cold light of the early mornshying lie turned to the east where a faint flush of red was touching the gray sky He that would cave his life niust lose itmdashin loving he reshypeated softly

CHAPTER XV

DerriaK fomd Seth watching for his coming and raw at a glance that be waa Tery 111 Even a leas practiced eye could not have mistaken the signs The hands that lay outside the faded patchwork cover were yellow and wrinkled the veins stood out a netshywork of cords across the hacks They were the hands of an old nam Rich ard noted their feeblenes as they closed eagerly around his own strong firm fingers Seth seemed to him to have aged 20 years since he saw him last

I am glad you have come Dick I was afraid you would not get here I vautre to see you again My life has been a failure Its hard to say tiiat when you corae to die he rambled on Yours wout be a failure Dick And I helped to make it I thought perhaps I should die easier if I could look at you again and sefe something tbat I had helped to do in the world

After this first greeting he said no more of the comfort of Richards presshyence But it was evident in the glance of his eyes as they followed the young man about the room and in his restshylessness when Richard was absent for a time

Richard saw that his place was here as long as Seth needed him and he quietly made arrangements to stay for an indefinite time He established bulllimself as caretaker and nurse Yeusfe as he was bis experience of life had been deep enough for him to undershystand that it is not often that one man can do for another what his mere presence did for Seth

The old man did not speak again of himself or of approaching death But he questioned Richard eagerly about his work and the life he led Every detail of it interested him It was as If he were listening to the story of what bis own life might have been And Richard understanding by a subshytle sympathy what it meant to him gave a minute account of tho office and the men the hurry and rush of the city and the haste and true hosshypitality of the social life

A stranger looking iuto the room would not have guessed that it was soon to be the chamber of death Laughter often interrupted the reshycital Richard hraquoi often fancied that when he came to die he should not want the humor of life taken from him And the account of his Chicago life was not dehumorized for a dying man Seth listening seemed to gain a quiet strength of soul as his physical strength failed

The story of Helen and his love for her was too closely interwoven with the life of the year to be omitted even had Richard cared to do so Litshytle by little he had told it all Seth listened eagerly and questioned Dick closely He made him describe her minutelymdashher personal appearance her characteristics her likes and disshylikes her workmdasheverything thai conshycerned her As Richard talked of her the older wan would watch his f a c e -Peking something Then a smile of content would cross his face and he would close his eyes as if asleep ut when Richard stopped he woulu say Im listening

One day when they had been talkshying of her he asked Richard to open a leather trunk that stood at the foot of the heu sad hand him a box that ur^oxtunri ii--^

touch of refinement Otherwise It was unchanged from the room in vhicb Richard had received the Greek gramshymar sis years ago

Then-it had been to hint a jgtaiu rough room with a certain homely comfort Now it was the picturesque setting of a lonely life The furniture was rough but the roughness had arshytistic charm Seth must have had consciously or unconsciously an artshyists appreciation-of the beautiful As Richard looked abbut thvi room his sense of the pathos of the life that was passing away here deepened to a feeling of kinship and sympathy The long years of loneliness that were drawing to a close were his own

It was Seth who broko the silence mdashlow and half-musingly You do well to love her Dick And she will be worthy of It But If she is notmdashyou must not stop loving Love someshythingmdashsome onemdashany one Never stop lovingmdashfor your souls sake That was my mistake One woman refused to love me 1 shut royeel oft irou all love That was my mistake Mistake he said slowly I wonder if there are such things Well it spoiled my life I didnt know then that the human heart must lovemdash4r die He that would save his life must lose itmdashin loving

The twilight settled down upon the room The old man did not speak again He lay with half-closed eyes looking across the shining red berries to the western sky

Richara sat quietly by his side He did not undress or lie down He knew by a subtle intuition that a guest

CHAPTER XVI

BeforeRichard- returned1 to Chicago It was found that Seths liking for him had taken practical form He had made a will giving to Richard all the property of -which he died possessed

The fortune was not Ifrge but enough to pay his college debt raise the mortgage and leave a comfortable sum for bis mothermdash-enough indeed to make her a woman of importance in the neighborhood

She protested in a mild way when Richard proposed to settle the money on her But he had grown too mastershyful for her In the end she enjoyed the feeling of importance that an asshysured income gave her She refused to accompany him to Chicago It was ail out west to her and very far away

Derring found himself speeding toshywards Chicago wondering whether this unexpected turn of fortune would make marriage nearer for him But when they met he did not ask her They assumed the old easy relation as if there had been no separation Life sped on with days too full of content to ask promises from the future

When the timeOf parting came in June he found that he could let her go with- less dread than he had thought possible The time would not be long and with the increased freeshydom that had come to him in money affairs hpound could run east during the vacation If trouble came to her or harm he could be with her in a few hours It was with light heart that he saw her go

He had accompanied her to the train and provided her with all the comforts for the journey that love conld suggest Between the leaves of one of the books was tucked a letter He had not told her it was there She would find i t The train began to move Good-by he said hurriedly I shall come to you If you need ine In any case I shall see you soon

lie sat up late working on an arshyticle for the next day When at last tired and exhausted he threw himshyself on the bed he fell at once into a sCind Rleep He slept long and heavshyily He started up with a sense of suffocationmdashWhere was hemdashWhat was the matter^mdashWas the bouse on fire Before he was fairly awake he knew that the- room was quietmdashso quiet that he could hear the ticking of his watch Then an awful Tear came upon himmdashshe was in danger Great God how the feeling riiasterfd him He sprang up and looked at his watchmdashthree oclock He drea-ed quickly and went out-of-doors He could not stay in the house It sufshyfocated him He must move about or go Insane

Instinctively he turned towards the lake A light fresh breeze greeted him as he came to the breakwater He lifted his face to meet it It would blow these foolish notions out of his brain He had been dreaming and had been frightened by his own fancies

He slackened hi3 pace listening-to the soft lapping of the water against the breakwater and looking up to the stars Then again fear took possesshysion of him and he quickened his step until at last he broke into a run driven by an awful nameless dread

Gaietoh PAmdashIt i$ quite data Lo say that nci other woman inPennsylvania in this or any other deer season ever had a more exciting experience thiin that which befell Miss Clara StifCel bullwhe Ifves near the village of Germania and has the distinction of being one of the best rihe abets of all this section

Miss Stiffols experience with the buck deer that came hear putting the finishing touches to her occurred en the-second day of the season on one of the branches of Kettle creek

On the morning of the second day out Miss Stiff el had been on her drive for the better part of an hour when Just as she had taken the edge of a laurel thicket that stood far above her head she heard the unmistakable snort of a buck seemingly only a few yards from her She stood still sr listened when the sudden crashing of the brush away to her right attracted her attention Just in time to see a pair of does hiking out of the thicket into the open and away like a flash out of her sight

She was convinced that there must be a buck somewhere in the neighborshyhood and she crept cautiously out to the edge of the thicket where she could get a glimpse of the side of the ridge As she did so the shaking of a sapling about two rods away caught her eye and a moment later the form of a fine big uuck pushed itself out from the thicket

Miss Stiff el saw that the deer was wlaquolaquondpd_evldelaquoty having been shot in the hind part and It moved with difficulty For a moment her womanly sympathy got the better of her and fthlaquo hesitated about shooting But then a second thought told her (hat in that condition the deer would only crawl away and die or fall prey to the catamounts and she fired The deer bounded as well as it could so that it wis partly bidden behind a fallen hemlock Ueetop and when she had made A detour of a swampy place and come up within ten feet of the tree-top the deer had escaped her entirely She moved cautiously for 5gthe knew that with bis old wound and the one her bullet had inflicted the animal must toon give up (he fight for escape

It keeps perfect time the customshyer said but I want to find out If you notice anything wrong with the way it strikes

The jeweler listened Theres nothshying wrong he replied with a grln after the clock had struck except that she strikes thirteen instead of twf-ivc Tbullbull ri iuUyen 1fgt rflTOcdied

The first assault resulted in Mis Stiffol being slashed in the face by one of the limbs that the force of the blow sent smarting against her and beiore the wounded buck had an opshyportunity to recover and charge again she had backed out of reach though her movement was in the opposite dishyrection from her gun and directly In the very thickest part of the tret top

Thgts deer was persistent as if he knew that she was responsible for a part of his trouble and he pushed his way through the limbs toward her renew the onslaught

To her dismay Miss Stiffel about this time discovered that the bottom of her hunting skirt had become fasshytened in a snag on the tree top and in order to permit herself to go even an Inch rurther she had to lean forshyward and loose tbe garment This put feer body within range of the attacking buck and what the next instant would have brought to pass would be hard to determine if Miss Stiffels brother who bad h e a r d the s h o t uuu Blurted ut once igt lu-t tfiiociiin stud Bftl OiVwiri niK$ ito flcono W i t h o u t hs m u c h i tali-lti-lt-r hio Mraquo0 hnt bet IVtil fh^r- gt

Dont CougnH-Use

I O YOtJ Wish a recipe for preshyventing all worry

For g iv ing composure and freedom from hurry

Just think of one fact which i s true you will find

When anything- happens to flurry your l i i ind

First something or nothing there is to ba done

First nothing or something that s clear laquos the sun

It something then do It and m a k e oo deshylay

If nothing all thought of it cast far a w a y

We have a remedy which we honshyestly believe to be unsurpassed in excellence for the prevention of coughs4 colds and all catarrhal conshyditions It is the prescription of a famous physician who has au enshyviable reputation of thirty years of cures gained through the uae of this formula We promise to make no charge for the medicine should it fail to do as we claim We urge everybody who has need of such a medicine to try Rexall Mecu-Tone

It stands to reason that we could not afford to make such statements and give our own personal guarantee

Certainly it seems like carrying ccals to Newcastle to speak of exportshying oatmeal to Scotland and yet every year the Quaker Oats Company sends hundreds of thousands of cases of Quaker Oats to Great Britain and Europe

The reason -5s--smpe 7i]e tne English and Scotch have for centuries eaten oatmeal in quantities and with a regularity that has made them the most rnggtd physically and active mentally of all people the American has been eating oatmeal and trying all the time to improve the methods of manufacture so that he might get that desirable foreign trade

How well he has succeeded would be seen at a glance at tne export reshyports of Quaker Oats This brand is recognized as without a rival in clean iiness and delicious flavor 51

INSOMNIA Leads to Madness if not Remedied lit

Time

Experiments satisfied me some 5 years ago writes a Topeka woman that coffee was the direct cause of the insomnia from which I suffered ter ribly as well as the extreme nervousshyness and acute dyspepsia which made life a most painful thing for me

I had been a coffee drinker since childhood and did not like to think that the beverage was doing me all this harm But it was and the time came when I had to face the fact and proshytect myself I therefore gave up coffee abruptly and absolutely and adopted Posium as my hot drink at meals

I began to note improvement in my condition very soon after I took on Postum The change proceeded gradshyually but surely and it was a matter of only a few weeks before I found myshyself entirely relieved -the nervousness passed away my digestive apparatus was restored to nomn 1 efficiency and I began to sleep restfully and peaceshyfully

These happy condition have conshytinued during all of the 5 years and I am safe in sayng that I owe tbem enshytirely to Pactum fcr whet I began to flrink h i csrtrifefl bullgt ulaquoraquo r^poundgtnfi Read ttc little book The Road to Wellvmen p^^s -T^rr ^ ^ s o

Three uoatiad Coaches are Submerged in RivermdashConductor fteynold Hrkgti-caliy Rescues Eight Through Roof of Dining Car

Death iu 1 its most terrible forms blotted out the lives of a t leasttwo aceie people when Your car^ of a Cashynadian Pacific passenger trail on the Sc-o branch leaped from the tracks near Sudbury Ont and went tearing down a steep embankment plunging through the ice-covered surface of the Spanish river

Suiue were drowned others were crushed to death in grinding timbers

Most terrible of all maimed and injured caught In the wreckage of one of the cars were burned to death

The exact number of dead and inshyjured was still unknown but accordshying to stories told by injured passenshygers brought to Sudbury it was one of the worst catastrophes in the hisshytory of Canadian railroads

Tbe train wrecked was known as No 7 en route from Montreal to Sault Ste Marie and Minneapolis An offishycial statement given out says that it probably was due to a broken rail

Front Cars Stay on Track The engine baggage express mail

and one second class car remained on the rails while one second class one first class a dining car and a sleeper went down the embankment The first class car and diner went into the river The sleeper and second class car stopped on the embankment the second cass car catching fire

The wreck odcurred about 37 miles west of Sudbury where the tracks cut into the side of a steep hill which is skirted by the river The forward part of the train passed over the break whatever it was in safety The day coach which was the fourth from the end of the train was the first to leave the rails bull bullgt bull

The train was running at the rate of about 40 miles an hour and the momentum carried the car down the hill in a terrific plnnge About 25 passengers were in this car and it Is practically certain that none escaped

Only the Roof Above Water Two minutes after the first crash

only the roof of the day coach showed above the flowing Ice In the river The second class car the next in the train smashed against tbe end cf a culvert and was crushed to splinters Some of tbe passengers were killed outright but others caught in the wreckage which almost immediately broke into flames were roasted to death before they could be resented

Uninjured passengers and trainmen immediately turned their attention to the rescue of passengers imperiled by the fire

The telegraph lines were all torn down and It was evident that relief could flot be summoned by wire It was five miles to the village of Nairn and a drenched survivor ran the disshytance to deliver a report of the wreck at the Canadian Pacific depot

Meanwhile Conductor Thomas Reyshynolds was proving himself a hero in

rescuing eight passengers from the sunken dining car When the wreck occurred Reynolds with W J Bell and David Rrodie had just sat down for an early dinner iieii and Brodie facing the engine and Reynolds sitshyting opposite them and riding back- j wards The diner was the last ear to ] enter the water and did not sink at once but settled slowly while the passengers climbed upon the tables to keep their heads above the rising waters With several passengers standing in water to their chins the situation was desperate

Then it was that Conductor Reyshynolds made a dive to reach a window broke the glass and succeeded in risshying to the surface of the fiver outside the ar Happily he reached the Surshyface where a hole in the ice enabled him to gain a solid footing by resting one arm on the roof of the car and the other on the ice

Some Taken Through Roof Gaining the roof of the car he broke

a fan light with his fist and rescued little Alfonso Rouse] of Sault Ste Marie After the little boy came D M Brodie of Sudbury who was small enough to pass through the fan light Six more passengers who were too big to be rescued in this manner were taken out through a hole broken in the roof of the car

1 never heard snch terrible cries as when those cars went over the bank I shall never forget it as long as I live said Conductor Reynolds I put the killed at between 40 and 50 The first coach carried about 35 or 40 passengers and of this number only one man escaped

Gangs of wreckers to the number of 100 were immediately sent to the scene of the horrible disaster

A NEWTOWN EVERY WEEK

ANamp A NEW SCHOOL EVERY SCHOOL PAY

Toe above caption about represent tbe growth of Cestfral Canada The statement was made not long since by a railroad man who claimed to have made the remarkable discovery that such was the case There is not a district of agt fair amount of settleshyment n any of the three Provinces of Manitoba Saskatchewan and Alberta but has its school and the railways Lave stations every seven or eight miles apart around whieh group the towns some large and some small but each imports nt to its own district Schools ltu3 largely maintained by pubshylic funds and the expense of tuition is but a nominal sum

The final returns of the grain proshyduction for Central Canada for 1909 is now In and the figures show that the value of the crops to the farmers of that country is about 195 million dolshylars as compared with 120 million last year American farmers or those who have gone from the United States will participate largely in these splendid returns and these comprise those who have gone from nearly every State in the Union

One of tbe many proofs that might be put forward showing theimmense wealth that comes to the farmers of Central Canada is seen in tbe sum that has been spent during the past two or three months by the faraers who bare for the time being ceased worrying over the reaper and the thresher and are taking to enjoying themselves for two or three months I+gt is said that fifty thousand people of these Western Provinces spent the holiday season visiting their old homes Host of these passengers paid forty and some forty-five dollars for the round trip Some went to Great Britain some to tbe Continent others to their old homes in Eastern Canada and many thousands went to visit their friends in the States The amount paid alone in transportation would be upward of two million dollars Some make tbe trip every years It need hot be asked Can they afford it With crops yielding them a profit of $20 to $26 per acre and some having as much as twelve hundred or more across tbe question is answered Tbe Canadian Government Agents at difshyferent point in tbe State report that they have interviewed a great many of those who arc now visiting friends Jn tbe different states and they all exshypress themselves as well satisfied and promise to take tome of their friends back witb tbena There It still a lot of free homestead land in splenshydid districts and other land can be purchased st a reasonable price from railway and land companies

IDEA NOT LEO Br M L p B S

Federal License of Corporations i$ Opposed by Many in

Congress

UNLIKELY TG BE MADE UW

Pension Bills Introduced Providing for VolunUer Retired ListmdashTwo Pft Its Want Exposition Marking tfca Canal Opening

WashingtonmdashTb Republican leadshyers in congress practically httve agreed that if it can be accomplished the majority of the Presidents recom-mendaticus shall be enacted into law at this session but there is growing evidence that anions the minority of the recommendations which are to be overlooked the Presidents wish that a law legalizing the federal licensing of incorporations may not be fulfilled at this session In telling Mr Taft that it la unlikely that MB federal licence law is to go through the leaden have made a tacshyit promise that at a future date probshyably at the next session the lecora-mendamption shall be taken up and put through i s some form Xt seems that the plan for the licensing of corporashytions by the federal government has aroused antagonism among some of the Republicans and among a majorshyity of the Democrats it Is understood also that the leading Republicans men who ordinarily can get the rest of the party representatives in line are not over-zealous in their desire that this bill shall become a law cershytainly not at the present time It la Impossible in the absence of any dishyrect statement of the reasons for their objections to tell why it Is that the leaders apparently are determined to postpone action upon this particular piece of legislation but It seems to be assured that consideration of it Is to be postponed until a more convenishyent season

It has beett pretty generally undershystood that bip subsidy was to have hard sailing through the waters of the lower house of congress and not very easy sailing through those of the upshyper house It is impossible of course to foretell just what the fate of subshysidy will be but it seems that one senator who in the cast has been the champion of subsidy this year Is not inclined to look with favor upon i t The senator in question Is Mr Prye of Maine who apparently does not think that the measure recommended by the President and already introshyduced into the house goes anywhere near far enough to suit the shipping interests President Taft has recomshymended legislation of this klcd but the feciling Is in Washington that he will not be particularly disappointed if it does not go through although of course its passage would add one more to the administration victories

Postal Savings Banks One of the most peculiar situations

is that in regard to postal savings banks Much has been written about this matter and in the main former opinion was that the postal savings bank bill might have great trouble in getting sanction for itself from the leaders of both houses As everybody knows the members of the national monetary commission would prefer that consideration of the postal savshyings bank bill should be put off until after the commission has made its reshyport President Taft however Is inshysistent that postal savings bank legisshylation shall be enacted this winter and it is believed to-day that the leaders have agreed uraquo accede to his wishes as they have also agreed to do what he wants them to do in the matter of amendments to the intershystate commerce law and of laws which will safeguard the interests of the nations natural resources

Bills for Veterans Before the military committee of

the house of representatives there are eight principal bills Intended to benefit the veterans of the civil war In several of them there is a specific provision for the creation of what is called a volunteer retired list for the civil war officers who are still living

In the sects tive

Sixteenth congress Repre-Beeman 0 Dawes of Ohio

introduced a bill which if it had beshycome a law would have put all the commissioned officers of the civil war on the veMred list with month-Iy pay of one-half that which they received while they were wearing swords in the field There is a reshytired list for regular officers and the idea of Representative Dawes was to give to the volunteer officers in their

old age a recognition in part at least o the value of their services as com-nilssioned officers The question seemed io be if tbe regulars are paid after retirement why not do the same thing for the volunteers

Representative Dawes is not now In Congress but the provision in his bill which was Intended to carcopy for the volunteer officers has been incor porated in several of the bills which j re now before the military commitshytee for action It seems probable it-4 gt ^nz firtngrrsa will vgtR n

man who wore a bar a leaf an eagle or a star on his shoulder dvring the civil war and who is alive to-day will

as though they were still fighting in the field

Substitute for Pensions Of course pensions assuchfor the

volunteers will brgt done away with if any of tbese bills passes congress because the retired pay will take the pensions place

Likely to Carry $raquo a raquocopyrttfc If the volunteer officers retired bill

passes it is possible that it will carry with it a pension giving enlisted men ol the civil war a pension of $40 per month fijfth sit present pensions be-tug abolished except in cases of total or almost total disability where the present sum paid to the disabled solshydiers exceed 40 per month With the officers and eullstea men and the widows cared for with these specific sums in each case the trouble of penshysion gradations and the chances of fraud are minimised but nevertheless it will cost a huge sum of money the first few years of the measures legai life

According to a classification made by Gen Green B Raum the volunteer officers who would benefit are In number and rank as follows Major generals two brigadier generals 28 colonels 151 lieutenant colonels 195 majors 309 captains 2633 first lieushytenants 2233 second lieutenants 1166-varlons ranks in the navy 160 this bringing the total up to the numshyber given above

Of course a full expression of opinshyion of desirability of such a retired Bat bill as this is not obtainable Soldiers and those who take an interest in mil itary affairs generally are much in fashyvor of the measure The crrtUans who never saw service do not express opinions on the matter in letter form for it seems that few people care to go on record as being opposed to any thing in the nature of a bill for the rcattf of the men who fought In the Heidi even though there may he and probably la a general feeling among civilians that the government is exshytravagant in the matter of pension naytnents

Rivalry for Exposition San Francisco and San Diego cities

of California each wants to be the teent of a great exposition In the year 1915 as a means of marking the opening of the Panama canal Represhysentative Kahn of California has Inshytroduced into tbe house a bill which is now before the committee on inshydustrial arts and expositions to proshyvide for what he designates as the Panama-Pacific exposition Represhysentative Smith of California on beshyhalf of the city of San Diego desires that U shall be the location of what he wishes to be called the Panama-California exposition

It is too early yet to tell whether congress will vote money for governshyment participation in any exposition on the Pacific coast or elsewhere to be held at tbe time of the canal openshying It is assured however that there will be a great celebration on the Tsthmu of Panama at the time that Col Goethala sets for the completion of the great work Early as the day la it la believed that the president of the United States and both houses of congress will go to Panama to give recognition to the completion of the canal Whether or hot there shall be a great exposition in the United States 1ST a matter yet to be decided but it must be said that California shows that it is very much in earnest in the matter of getting the governments sanction for a great exposition of arts industries and manufactures on the Pacific coast in the year 1915 when It la practically assured the Inter-oceanic canal will be open for traffic

Few Bills Before Congress Considering the fact that this Is a

long session of congress comparativeshyly few bills have been introduced into either house or senate There is a marked absence at this session of what is known as freak bills Memshybers of congress are urged constantly by constituents some of whom are a little unbalanced mentally or who beshylong to the class of extreme enthusishyasts to put in bills which no congress possibly could be brought to pass and no committee could be made even to consider These so-called freak bills are introduced by members simply to escape the constant appeals of those who want their measures at least to see the light of print

In congress there is this winter anshyother determined effort to lay the groundwork for a plan which when carshyried to ultimate completion will result in a great boulevard running from the city of Washington to the battlefield of Gettysburg It is the intention If sanction for such a great avenue can be secured to have it known as a memorial of Lincoln A survey he been made of a road from Washington to Gettysburg in a straight line beshytween the capitol and the central point of the famous battlefield and it has been found that tbe road can be bunt without much interference with private property As a matter of fact the people who live along the way have expressed a desire that the work should be carried to completion

Approve Memorial Project There are many old soldiers and

men in ofScial gtife whose memories go back to tbe Lincoln days and some of whom knew Lincoln personally who think that the noble roadway would be the best possible memorial to the war- time president good deal of sentiment in favor of the proposition has been aroused ft the country alshythough it Should be said that considershyable opposition has been developed r n f d u l flpi5raquo J^Oplft raquoltflitj fgt thTT

three or four hundred girls who had filled the college buildings and camshypus with their bright earnest lhfe nci more thaa a Aoxeh remaiocd ftrid all but one of these had their tru-tks packed for speedy departute This one was Mary Cathcart who did uot kcow where she could go if she did PpoundCk -mdashmdash^-

Tbianiornlbg she was standing near the entrance of the lecture hail wonshydering what she should do For ten days t i e had been looking hopefully for a Jitter but none had come NGne seemed likely to come now

She had not specially fitted herself for anything and she rather looked forward to coming back after the sumshymer holidays to take a postgraduate course when if It should seem best she would study for one of the half-dozen railings which many of her schoolmates were already entering upon But it ail depended upon the letter and the letter had not come

A girl but little older than herself came briskly from the building It wasect the French teacher and she waft now going straight to the station to take the next train for home Mary looked at her a little eartonaly

Where do yon got aafeed the teacher

To Loagley Two hours later she was at the stashy

tion and had purchased a ticket She had money enough to pay her exshypenses for a month Beyond that she did not know

Whom should she find st Longley Should she even find anybody A letshyter which had come to her after her mothers death more than four years before bidding her to enter upon a course at this college and stating that money would he sent to her from time to time as before was all she had to go by The letter had been postshymarked Longley

She had always been generously supplied and had furnished her room

1-4 Off

well and had had money to spend Then as the end of the course apshyproached she had confidently looked forward to another letter But none bad come The one postmarked Long-ley was her only clew and even that might have been mailed by some one passing through the place

Her mother had thought the money might come from a wealthy uncle who had had some disagreement with the family and who took this wamp7 of savshying his pride He was eccentric and fond of traveling about from place to place

All tt through her mind as tbm train rushed on At length Long-ley was called and Mary rose and hurried out to the little platform of a small country station

The station master was dragging her trunk back from the edge of the platform where it had been dropped She went to him

There are no Cathcarta here of course she said more as an assershytion than as a question

No guess not never heered of any Be you lookin up some

Tmdashbulles I thought I might find a relshyative here When is the next train

Not till to-morrer She drew a long breath Is there a hotei near Factry boardin house but I guess

its pretty full Thats it down yonshyder pointing with his finger the house with a blind swingin on the hinge Be you lookin for a job I hear theyre needin two or three more weavers Thats the only job I know of unless its old Tom Far-

she started down the most forgot I heered that the wstnan whos Tom is goln off to-day could get her job

Mary nodded her thanks a sudden resolution flashing Into her eyes

She smilingly inquired her way to the home of Mr Farrar There she found a middle-aged woman who greeted her anxiously But on learn lng her errand the womans face cleared

A V v bull-- y ijuctuvi- a good -EE7 y^ars bc^re she died Is he very ill Aldry ashed as she went inside gt

Well no not so very now Hes gettin beiter slowly

She was right Mary did Uke it She remembered many of the tempting dishes which she had prepared for her motherland she made them now stagshying little snatches of song as she did so She had not known what she was fitted for Now she knew that she could be a good nurse Perhaps she could also be good at other things but she had not found that out yet

What surprised her most were the books in every room some of which even she looked at with awe They all showed marks of much use as well as lovtag care gt As the days went by these eyes beshygan to follow her as she moved softly about the room contented and lovingshyly at first then with a questioning wlattulnees as though the clouded mind were striving to grasp something it could not quite reach Then one day there were several minutes when the eyes grew clear and intelligent and gazed at her with almost startled wonshyder The next day the lucid Interval was longer and several times repeatshyed But he did not speak he only gazed at her and passed his hand across hhi brow from time to timet

Then came a morning when he was strong enough to sit up In bed but still the wistfulness and wonder reshymained In his eyes

You are a new nurse he said Yes 1 knew it of course but I havent

said anything Imdash-I have been trying to get my mind clear I thought as I got stronger my mind would get betshyter bat it doesnt ImdashIm afraid Its getting worse I suppose Im growshying old and its to be expected but Fve bees planning fcr a good deal of reading and study yetgt and haveut realised how the years slip by

Mary stroked his hand softly T o n cannot get weU at once Mr

Farrar she chUed Yon hare been vary sick you know But you are growing stronger gradually and your brain is growing clearer I can see t t -

Tou dont understand he anshyswered gently my bodys stronger but my mind doesnt seem to gain It made you out to be somebody else from the first and has persisted in the hallucination ever sine Ive tooked in other directions and changed my thoughts to other things but its no use Youve takes care of me so my mind says that youre someshybody whom I used to know a long time ago whos dead I suppose its what folks call second childhood Then changing the subject abruptly How long have I been sick

I do not know I have only been here two weeks It is now the fifshyteenth of July

He looked startled So late he gasped Why Imdash

Ive got a little girl off to school who ought to have been written to long ago Will you bring me my pen and paper from the desk

Let me do It for you she said taking the pen from his shaking finshygers and moving a small table close to his bedside

But he remained silent looking at her doubtiuily ImdashImdashyou see 1 dont write to her directly he said at length hesitatingly Theres an old friend In New York who acts for me He was silent for some minutes longer then went on desperately

The letter must be written and I suppose itll be best to explain things a little You see when I was laquo boy I had a strong notion for college but

settled with the books I liked to read and had lost ambition to go out into the orld But I didntnsive up the idea altogether I would send someshybody la my place_ So I looked round I had no relative save a little girl whom I used to play with when a boy She had married and gone west I traced her and found that her husshyband was dead and that she was an invalid without means That was something nearer than college so I sent her from time to time what monshyey I had to spare When she died I arranged for her girl to go to college

He paused with his gae upon the coverlet his eyes unobservant dreamy reminiscent

Mary had risen her eyes shining Why didnt you write to her direct

iy she breathed Well she was a college girl you

see with college girl notions I liked to think of her as my girl arid to plan things for her If Id written to her directly itmdashmight have been different You see Im just a man of all work In a factory He held up his hands white and transparent from his illness but still knotty and hard from a lifeshytime of toll I dont know much about girls he went on but I want to think of this one as mine and I cant bear the thought of her evermdash

Mr Farrar do you think any girl could be ashamed of you

The quick passionate cry brought his gaze suddenly from the coverlet What he reau in her voice in her eyes brought a lok of rapt understanding to his face

Then my mind isnt wandering he exclaimed tremulously Its she really and truly Mary bring me that tin box in my desk

She brought it and eagerly he ran his fingers through the contents soon finding a tintype which he opened and held up for her inspection It might have been her own picture so exact was the likeness She recognised H with a low cry

I t s your mother Mary he said softly takes Just before h went west

Dont CougnH-Use

I O YOtJ Wish a recipe for preshyventing all worry

For g iv ing composure and freedom from hurry

Just think of one fact which i s true you will find

When anything- happens to flurry your l i i ind

First something or nothing there is to ba done

First nothing or something that s clear laquos the sun

It something then do It and m a k e oo deshylay

If nothing all thought of it cast far a w a y

This s implest of rules if youll only obey

Will tret you from wrinkles for many a day

Lord Mayors Banquets The lord mayors banquet on the

Mr Pepys records in his diary that at the table at which he sat at a lord mayors bcrquet there were ten good dishes to a r-css and plenty of wine of all sorts but we bad no napkins no change of trenchers and drank out of earthen pitchers or wooden dishes

Senator James B Frasier of Tenshynessee tells a story 6t the delight which the late Senator Pettus of Alashybama took in a yard game Senator

Fraater when governor of Tennesshysee had gone to Hot- Springs Ark There he met Senator Pettus and knowing him well determined to warn him that three men with whom he had been playingA cards were sharpers from Nashville^

After hesitating some time he ap-proachea the aged senator and afte engaging him in conversation apoloshygized for warning Senator Pettus that his card partners were crooked

You dont say smiled Senator Pettus Do you know I suspected it

Well I advise you not to play with them any more said Senator Frazier

But theres nobody else here to play with Querulously returned the aged senator

Older senators repeat an anecdote of Senator Pettus in which he is repshyresented as returning home after a night at cards just as the morning light was breaking He was at the time of the story 85 years oUtr and Mrs Pettus was but little younger They never addressed each other exshycept as Mr Pettus and Mrs Petshytus

Mr Pettus said Mrs Pettus sternly rising up in bed do you think it is good for your health to stay out ar -laquoraquoLc as this at night

Mrs Pettus returned her husshyband dont you think I am old enough to know what is good for me

graphical society Capt Bertram Dickshyson said there is a large sanctuary at the top of Jebel Judi where every year in August is held a great fete attended by thousands of energetic Moslems Christians and Yezidis who climb the steepest of trails for 7000 feett in the terrific summer heat to do homage to Noah This mountain seems to have been held sacred at all times and certainly it has a wondershyfully awesome fascination about it with its huge precipices and jagged crags watching over the vast Mesopo-tamiaii plain The local villagers can show one the exact spot where Noah descended while in one village Has-sana they showed his grave and the vineyard where he is reputed to have indulged cver-freely in the juice of the grape The owner of this deshyclared that the vines had been passed from father to son ever sincemdashLonshydon Evening Standard

From reports that are coming in from the exvited farmers of that vishycinity it appears that Parker went down ceilar shortly after the three older children had left home for school

He went down there to fil the tank of the acetylene gag plant is what Mrs Parker says

Nearby neighbors heard the explo Bkm and the news spread with the rapidity of a message conveyed by the wireless telegraph In a brief intershyval there was a crowd at the scene of the wreck It was a wreck for the entire brick house had tumbled in ruins into the cellar

Experiments satisfied me some 5 years ago writes a Topeka woman that coffee was the direct cause of the insomnia from which I suffered ter ribly as well as the extreme nervousshyness and acute dyspepsia which made life a most painful thing for me

I had been a coffee drinker since childhood and did not like to think that the beverage was doing me all this harm But it was and the time came when I had to face the fact and proshytect myself I therefore gave up coffee abruptly and absolutely and adopted Posium as my hot drink at meals

I began to note improvement in my condition very soon after I took on Postum The change proceeded gradshyually but surely and it was a matter of only a few weeks before I found myshyself entirely relieved -the nervousness passed away my digestive apparatus was restored to nomn 1 efficiency and I began to sleep restfully and peaceshyfully

Three uoatiad Coaches are Submerged in RivermdashConductor fteynold Hrkgti-caliy Rescues Eight Through Roof of Dining Car

Death iu 1 its most terrible forms blotted out the lives of a t leasttwo aceie people when Your car^ of a Cashynadian Pacific passenger trail on the Sc-o branch leaped from the tracks near Sudbury Ont and went tearing down a steep embankment plunging through the ice-covered surface of the Spanish river

Suiue were drowned others were crushed to death in grinding timbers

Most terrible of all maimed and injured caught In the wreckage of one of the cars were burned to death

The exact number of dead and inshyjured was still unknown but accordshying to stories told by injured passenshygers brought to Sudbury it was one of the worst catastrophes in the hisshytory of Canadian railroads

Tbe train wrecked was known as No 7 en route from Montreal to Sault Ste Marie and Minneapolis An offishycial statement given out says that it probably was due to a broken rail

Front Cars Stay on Track The engine baggage express mail

and one second class car remained on the rails while one second class one first class a dining car and a sleeper went down the embankment The first class car and diner went into the river The sleeper and second class car stopped on the embankment the second cass car catching fire

The wreck odcurred about 37 miles west of Sudbury where the tracks cut into the side of a steep hill which is skirted by the river The forward part of the train passed over the break whatever it was in safety The day coach which was the fourth from the end of the train was the first to leave the rails bull bullgt bull

The train was running at the rate of about 40 miles an hour and the momentum carried the car down the hill in a terrific plnnge About 25 passengers were in this car and it Is practically certain that none escaped

Only the Roof Above Water Two minutes after the first crash

only the roof of the day coach showed above the flowing Ice In the river The second class car the next in the train smashed against tbe end cf a culvert and was crushed to splinters Some of tbe passengers were killed outright but others caught in the wreckage which almost immediately broke into flames were roasted to death before they could be resented

Uninjured passengers and trainmen immediately turned their attention to the rescue of passengers imperiled by the fire

The telegraph lines were all torn down and It was evident that relief could flot be summoned by wire It was five miles to the village of Nairn and a drenched survivor ran the disshytance to deliver a report of the wreck at the Canadian Pacific depot

Meanwhile Conductor Thomas Reyshynolds was proving himself a hero in

rescuing eight passengers from the sunken dining car When the wreck occurred Reynolds with W J Bell and David Rrodie had just sat down for an early dinner iieii and Brodie facing the engine and Reynolds sitshyting opposite them and riding back- j wards The diner was the last ear to ] enter the water and did not sink at once but settled slowly while the passengers climbed upon the tables to keep their heads above the rising waters With several passengers standing in water to their chins the situation was desperate

Then it was that Conductor Reyshynolds made a dive to reach a window broke the glass and succeeded in risshying to the surface of the fiver outside the ar Happily he reached the Surshyface where a hole in the ice enabled him to gain a solid footing by resting one arm on the roof of the car and the other on the ice

Some Taken Through Roof Gaining the roof of the car he broke

a fan light with his fist and rescued little Alfonso Rouse] of Sault Ste Marie After the little boy came D M Brodie of Sudbury who was small enough to pass through the fan light Six more passengers who were too big to be rescued in this manner were taken out through a hole broken in the roof of the car

1 never heard snch terrible cries as when those cars went over the bank I shall never forget it as long as I live said Conductor Reynolds I put the killed at between 40 and 50 The first coach carried about 35 or 40 passengers and of this number only one man escaped

Gangs of wreckers to the number of 100 were immediately sent to the scene of the horrible disaster

A NEWTOWN EVERY WEEK

ANamp A NEW SCHOOL EVERY SCHOOL PAY

Toe above caption about represent tbe growth of Cestfral Canada The statement was made not long since by a railroad man who claimed to have made the remarkable discovery that such was the case There is not a district of agt fair amount of settleshyment n any of the three Provinces of Manitoba Saskatchewan and Alberta but has its school and the railways Lave stations every seven or eight miles apart around whieh group the towns some large and some small but each imports nt to its own district Schools ltu3 largely maintained by pubshylic funds and the expense of tuition is but a nominal sum

The final returns of the grain proshyduction for Central Canada for 1909 is now In and the figures show that the value of the crops to the farmers of that country is about 195 million dolshylars as compared with 120 million last year American farmers or those who have gone from the United States will participate largely in these splendid returns and these comprise those who have gone from nearly every State in the Union

One of tbe many proofs that might be put forward showing theimmense wealth that comes to the farmers of Central Canada is seen in tbe sum that has been spent during the past two or three months by the faraers who bare for the time being ceased worrying over the reaper and the thresher and are taking to enjoying themselves for two or three months I+gt is said that fifty thousand people of these Western Provinces spent the holiday season visiting their old homes Host of these passengers paid forty and some forty-five dollars for the round trip Some went to Great Britain some to tbe Continent others to their old homes in Eastern Canada and many thousands went to visit their friends in the States The amount paid alone in transportation would be upward of two million dollars Some make tbe trip every years It need hot be asked Can they afford it With crops yielding them a profit of $20 to $26 per acre and some having as much as twelve hundred or more across tbe question is answered Tbe Canadian Government Agents at difshyferent point in tbe State report that they have interviewed a great many of those who arc now visiting friends Jn tbe different states and they all exshypress themselves as well satisfied and promise to take tome of their friends back witb tbena There It still a lot of free homestead land in splenshydid districts and other land can be purchased st a reasonable price from railway and land companies

UNLIKELY TG BE MADE UW

Pension Bills Introduced Providing for VolunUer Retired ListmdashTwo Pft Its Want Exposition Marking tfca Canal Opening

WashingtonmdashTb Republican leadshyers in congress practically httve agreed that if it can be accomplished the majority of the Presidents recom-mendaticus shall be enacted into law at this session but there is growing evidence that anions the minority of the recommendations which are to be overlooked the Presidents wish that a law legalizing the federal licensing of incorporations may not be fulfilled at this session In telling Mr Taft that it la unlikely that MB federal licence law is to go through the leaden have made a tacshyit promise that at a future date probshyably at the next session the lecora-mendamption shall be taken up and put through i s some form Xt seems that the plan for the licensing of corporashytions by the federal government has aroused antagonism among some of the Republicans and among a majorshyity of the Democrats it Is understood also that the leading Republicans men who ordinarily can get the rest of the party representatives in line are not over-zealous in their desire that this bill shall become a law cershytainly not at the present time It la Impossible in the absence of any dishyrect statement of the reasons for their objections to tell why it Is that the leaders apparently are determined to postpone action upon this particular piece of legislation but It seems to be assured that consideration of it Is to be postponed until a more convenishyent season

It has beett pretty generally undershystood that bip subsidy was to have hard sailing through the waters of the lower house of congress and not very easy sailing through those of the upshyper house It is impossible of course to foretell just what the fate of subshysidy will be but it seems that one senator who in the cast has been the champion of subsidy this year Is not inclined to look with favor upon i t The senator in question Is Mr Prye of Maine who apparently does not think that the measure recommended by the President and already introshyduced into the house goes anywhere near far enough to suit the shipping interests President Taft has recomshymended legislation of this klcd but the feciling Is in Washington that he will not be particularly disappointed if it does not go through although of course its passage would add one more to the administration victories

Postal Savings Banks One of the most peculiar situations

is that in regard to postal savings banks Much has been written about this matter and in the main former opinion was that the postal savings bank bill might have great trouble in getting sanction for itself from the leaders of both houses As everybody knows the members of the national monetary commission would prefer that consideration of the postal savshyings bank bill should be put off until after the commission has made its reshyport President Taft however Is inshysistent that postal savings bank legisshylation shall be enacted this winter and it is believed to-day that the leaders have agreed uraquo accede to his wishes as they have also agreed to do what he wants them to do in the matter of amendments to the intershystate commerce law and of laws which will safeguard the interests of the nations natural resources

Bills for Veterans Before the military committee of

the house of representatives there are eight principal bills Intended to benefit the veterans of the civil war In several of them there is a specific provision for the creation of what is called a volunteer retired list for the civil war officers who are still living

In the sects tive

Sixteenth congress Repre-Beeman 0 Dawes of Ohio

introduced a bill which if it had beshycome a law would have put all the commissioned officers of the civil war on the veMred list with month-Iy pay of one-half that which they received while they were wearing swords in the field There is a reshytired list for regular officers and the idea of Representative Dawes was to give to the volunteer officers in their

old age a recognition in part at least o the value of their services as com-nilssioned officers The question seemed io be if tbe regulars are paid after retirement why not do the same thing for the volunteers

Representative Dawes is not now In Congress but the provision in his bill which was Intended to carcopy for the volunteer officers has been incor porated in several of the bills which j re now before the military commitshytee for action It seems probable it-4 gt ^nz firtngrrsa will vgtR n

volunteers will brgt done away with if any of tbese bills passes congress because the retired pay will take the pensions place

Likely to Carry $raquo a raquocopyrttfc If the volunteer officers retired bill

passes it is possible that it will carry with it a pension giving enlisted men ol the civil war a pension of $40 per month fijfth sit present pensions be-tug abolished except in cases of total or almost total disability where the present sum paid to the disabled solshydiers exceed 40 per month With the officers and eullstea men and the widows cared for with these specific sums in each case the trouble of penshysion gradations and the chances of fraud are minimised but nevertheless it will cost a huge sum of money the first few years of the measures legai life

According to a classification made by Gen Green B Raum the volunteer officers who would benefit are In number and rank as follows Major generals two brigadier generals 28 colonels 151 lieutenant colonels 195 majors 309 captains 2633 first lieushytenants 2233 second lieutenants 1166-varlons ranks in the navy 160 this bringing the total up to the numshyber given above

Of course a full expression of opinshyion of desirability of such a retired Bat bill as this is not obtainable Soldiers and those who take an interest in mil itary affairs generally are much in fashyvor of the measure The crrtUans who never saw service do not express opinions on the matter in letter form for it seems that few people care to go on record as being opposed to any thing in the nature of a bill for the rcattf of the men who fought In the Heidi even though there may he and probably la a general feeling among civilians that the government is exshytravagant in the matter of pension naytnents

Rivalry for Exposition San Francisco and San Diego cities

of California each wants to be the teent of a great exposition In the year 1915 as a means of marking the opening of the Panama canal Represhysentative Kahn of California has Inshytroduced into tbe house a bill which is now before the committee on inshydustrial arts and expositions to proshyvide for what he designates as the Panama-Pacific exposition Represhysentative Smith of California on beshyhalf of the city of San Diego desires that U shall be the location of what he wishes to be called the Panama-California exposition

It is too early yet to tell whether congress will vote money for governshyment participation in any exposition on the Pacific coast or elsewhere to be held at tbe time of the canal openshying It is assured however that there will be a great celebration on the Tsthmu of Panama at the time that Col Goethala sets for the completion of the great work Early as the day la it la believed that the president of the United States and both houses of congress will go to Panama to give recognition to the completion of the canal Whether or hot there shall be a great exposition in the United States 1ST a matter yet to be decided but it must be said that California shows that it is very much in earnest in the matter of getting the governments sanction for a great exposition of arts industries and manufactures on the Pacific coast in the year 1915 when It la practically assured the Inter-oceanic canal will be open for traffic

Few Bills Before Congress Considering the fact that this Is a

long session of congress comparativeshyly few bills have been introduced into either house or senate There is a marked absence at this session of what is known as freak bills Memshybers of congress are urged constantly by constituents some of whom are a little unbalanced mentally or who beshylong to the class of extreme enthusishyasts to put in bills which no congress possibly could be brought to pass and no committee could be made even to consider These so-called freak bills are introduced by members simply to escape the constant appeals of those who want their measures at least to see the light of print

In congress there is this winter anshyother determined effort to lay the groundwork for a plan which when carshyried to ultimate completion will result in a great boulevard running from the city of Washington to the battlefield of Gettysburg It is the intention If sanction for such a great avenue can be secured to have it known as a memorial of Lincoln A survey he been made of a road from Washington to Gettysburg in a straight line beshytween the capitol and the central point of the famous battlefield and it has been found that tbe road can be bunt without much interference with private property As a matter of fact the people who live along the way have expressed a desire that the work should be carried to completion

Approve Memorial Project There are many old soldiers and

men in ofScial gtife whose memories go back to tbe Lincoln days and some of whom knew Lincoln personally who think that the noble roadway would be the best possible memorial to the war- time president good deal of sentiment in favor of the proposition has been aroused ft the country alshythough it Should be said that considershyable opposition has been developed r n f d u l flpi5raquo J^Oplft raquoltflitj fgt thTT

importance of Table Manners Emerson declared I could better

eat with one who did not respect tho truth or the laws than with a slovshyenly and unpresentable person Moral qualities rule the world but at short distances the senses are despotic There Is nothing more offensive to truly polite and cultured people than careless vulgar table manners

three or four hundred girls who had filled the college buildings and camshypus with their bright earnest lhfe nci more thaa a Aoxeh remaiocd ftrid all but one of these had their tru-tks packed for speedy departute This one was Mary Cathcart who did uot kcow where she could go if she did PpoundCk -mdashmdash^-

Tbianiornlbg she was standing near the entrance of the lecture hail wonshydering what she should do For ten days t i e had been looking hopefully for a Jitter but none had come NGne seemed likely to come now

She had not specially fitted herself for anything and she rather looked forward to coming back after the sumshymer holidays to take a postgraduate course when if It should seem best she would study for one of the half-dozen railings which many of her schoolmates were already entering upon But it ail depended upon the letter and the letter had not come

A girl but little older than herself came briskly from the building It wasect the French teacher and she waft now going straight to the station to take the next train for home Mary looked at her a little eartonaly

Where do yon got aafeed the teacher

To Loagley Two hours later she was at the stashy

tion and had purchased a ticket She had money enough to pay her exshypenses for a month Beyond that she did not know

Whom should she find st Longley Should she even find anybody A letshyter which had come to her after her mothers death more than four years before bidding her to enter upon a course at this college and stating that money would he sent to her from time to time as before was all she had to go by The letter had been postshymarked Longley

She had always been generously supplied and had furnished her room

1-4 Off

well and had had money to spend Then as the end of the course apshyproached she had confidently looked forward to another letter But none bad come The one postmarked Long-ley was her only clew and even that might have been mailed by some one passing through the place

Her mother had thought the money might come from a wealthy uncle who had had some disagreement with the family and who took this wamp7 of savshying his pride He was eccentric and fond of traveling about from place to place

All tt through her mind as tbm train rushed on At length Long-ley was called and Mary rose and hurried out to the little platform of a small country station

The station master was dragging her trunk back from the edge of the platform where it had been dropped She went to him

There are no Cathcarta here of course she said more as an assershytion than as a question

No guess not never heered of any Be you lookin up some

Tmdashbulles I thought I might find a relshyative here When is the next train

A V v bull-- y ijuctuvi- a good -EE7 y^ars bc^re she died Is he very ill Aldry ashed as she went inside gt

Well no not so very now Hes gettin beiter slowly

She was right Mary did Uke it She remembered many of the tempting dishes which she had prepared for her motherland she made them now stagshying little snatches of song as she did so She had not known what she was fitted for Now she knew that she could be a good nurse Perhaps she could also be good at other things but she had not found that out yet

What surprised her most were the books in every room some of which even she looked at with awe They all showed marks of much use as well as lovtag care gt As the days went by these eyes beshygan to follow her as she moved softly about the room contented and lovingshyly at first then with a questioning wlattulnees as though the clouded mind were striving to grasp something it could not quite reach Then one day there were several minutes when the eyes grew clear and intelligent and gazed at her with almost startled wonshyder The next day the lucid Interval was longer and several times repeatshyed But he did not speak he only gazed at her and passed his hand across hhi brow from time to timet

Then came a morning when he was strong enough to sit up In bed but still the wistfulness and wonder reshymained In his eyes

You are a new nurse he said Yes 1 knew it of course but I havent

said anything Imdash-I have been trying to get my mind clear I thought as I got stronger my mind would get betshyter bat it doesnt ImdashIm afraid Its getting worse I suppose Im growshying old and its to be expected but Fve bees planning fcr a good deal of reading and study yetgt and haveut realised how the years slip by

Mary stroked his hand softly T o n cannot get weU at once Mr

Farrar she chUed Yon hare been vary sick you know But you are growing stronger gradually and your brain is growing clearer I can see t t -

Tou dont understand he anshyswered gently my bodys stronger but my mind doesnt seem to gain It made you out to be somebody else from the first and has persisted in the hallucination ever sine Ive tooked in other directions and changed my thoughts to other things but its no use Youve takes care of me so my mind says that youre someshybody whom I used to know a long time ago whos dead I suppose its what folks call second childhood Then changing the subject abruptly How long have I been sick

I do not know I have only been here two weeks It is now the fifshyteenth of July

He looked startled So late he gasped Why Imdash

Ive got a little girl off to school who ought to have been written to long ago Will you bring me my pen and paper from the desk

Let me do It for you she said taking the pen from his shaking finshygers and moving a small table close to his bedside

But he remained silent looking at her doubtiuily ImdashImdashyou see 1 dont write to her directly he said at length hesitatingly Theres an old friend In New York who acts for me He was silent for some minutes longer then went on desperately

The letter must be written and I suppose itll be best to explain things a little You see when I was laquo boy I had a strong notion for college but

settled with the books I liked to read and had lost ambition to go out into the orld But I didntnsive up the idea altogether I would send someshybody la my place_ So I looked round I had no relative save a little girl whom I used to play with when a boy She had married and gone west I traced her and found that her husshyband was dead and that she was an invalid without means That was something nearer than college so I sent her from time to time what monshyey I had to spare When she died I arranged for her girl to go to college

He paused with his gae upon the coverlet his eyes unobservant dreamy reminiscent

Mary had risen her eyes shining Why didnt you write to her direct

iy she breathed Well she was a college girl you

see with college girl notions I liked to think of her as my girl arid to plan things for her If Id written to her directly itmdashmight have been different You see Im just a man of all work In a factory He held up his hands white and transparent from his illness but still knotty and hard from a lifeshytime of toll I dont know much about girls he went on but I want to think of this one as mine and I cant bear the thought of her evermdash

Mr Farrar do you think any girl could be ashamed of you

The quick passionate cry brought his gaze suddenly from the coverlet What he reau in her voice in her eyes brought a lok of rapt understanding to his face

Then my mind isnt wandering he exclaimed tremulously Its she really and truly Mary bring me that tin box in my desk

She brought it and eagerly he ran his fingers through the contents soon finding a tintype which he opened and held up for her inspection It might have been her own picture so exact was the likeness She recognised H with a low cry

I t s your mother Mary he said softly takes Just before h went west

We have a remedy which we honshyestly believe to be unsurpassed in excellence for the prevention of coughs4 colds and all catarrhal conshyditions It is the prescription of a famous physician who has au enshyviable reputation of thirty years of cures gained through the uae of this formula We promise to make no charge for the medicine should it fail to do as we claim We urge everybody who has need of such a medicine to try Rexall Mecu-Tone

It stands to reason that we could not afford to make such statements and give our own personal guarantee

Mr Pepys records in his diary that at the table at which he sat at a lord mayors bcrquet there were ten good dishes to a r-css and plenty of wine of all sorts but we bad no napkins no change of trenchers and drank out of earthen pitchers or wooden dishes

As the guest of honor the colonel was sent upward with the assurance that there was absolutely no danger But as the distance from the earth grew greater tbe colonel leaned out anxiously

Pull me in he shouted The men who were bailing out the

rope paid no heed to his demand Higher and higher went the balloon Wilder nd wilder grew the colonel Finally almost standing on his bead as bev tried to keep a precarious balshyance he gave a final cry of exasshyperated panic

INSOMNIA Leads to Madness if not Remedied lit

Time

Experiments satisfied me some 5 years ago writes a Topeka woman that coffee was the direct cause of the insomnia from which I suffered ter ribly as well as the extreme nervousshyness and acute dyspepsia which made life a most painful thing for me

I had been a coffee drinker since childhood and did not like to think that the beverage was doing me all this harm But it was and the time came when I had to face the fact and proshytect myself I therefore gave up coffee abruptly and absolutely and adopted Posium as my hot drink at meals

I began to note improvement in my condition very soon after I took on Postum The change proceeded gradshyually but surely and it was a matter of only a few weeks before I found myshyself entirely relieved -the nervousness passed away my digestive apparatus was restored to nomn 1 efficiency and I began to sleep restfully and peaceshyfully

These happy condition have conshytinued during all of the 5 years and I am safe in sayng that I owe tbem enshytirely to Pactum fcr whet I began to flrink h i csrtrifefl bullgt ulaquoraquo r^poundgtnfi Read ttc little book The Road to Wellvmen p^^s -T^rr ^ ^ s o

Three uoatiad Coaches are Submerged in RivermdashConductor fteynold Hrkgti-caliy Rescues Eight Through Roof of Dining Car

Death iu 1 its most terrible forms blotted out the lives of a t leasttwo aceie people when Your car^ of a Cashynadian Pacific passenger trail on the Sc-o branch leaped from the tracks near Sudbury Ont and went tearing down a steep embankment plunging through the ice-covered surface of the Spanish river

Suiue were drowned others were crushed to death in grinding timbers

Most terrible of all maimed and injured caught In the wreckage of one of the cars were burned to death

The exact number of dead and inshyjured was still unknown but accordshying to stories told by injured passenshygers brought to Sudbury it was one of the worst catastrophes in the hisshytory of Canadian railroads

Tbe train wrecked was known as No 7 en route from Montreal to Sault Ste Marie and Minneapolis An offishycial statement given out says that it probably was due to a broken rail

Front Cars Stay on Track The engine baggage express mail

and one second class car remained on the rails while one second class one first class a dining car and a sleeper went down the embankment The first class car and diner went into the river The sleeper and second class car stopped on the embankment the second cass car catching fire

The wreck odcurred about 37 miles west of Sudbury where the tracks cut into the side of a steep hill which is skirted by the river The forward part of the train passed over the break whatever it was in safety The day coach which was the fourth from the end of the train was the first to leave the rails bull bullgt bull

The train was running at the rate of about 40 miles an hour and the momentum carried the car down the hill in a terrific plnnge About 25 passengers were in this car and it Is practically certain that none escaped

Only the Roof Above Water Two minutes after the first crash

only the roof of the day coach showed above the flowing Ice In the river The second class car the next in the train smashed against tbe end cf a culvert and was crushed to splinters Some of tbe passengers were killed outright but others caught in the wreckage which almost immediately broke into flames were roasted to death before they could be resented

Uninjured passengers and trainmen immediately turned their attention to the rescue of passengers imperiled by the fire

The telegraph lines were all torn down and It was evident that relief could flot be summoned by wire It was five miles to the village of Nairn and a drenched survivor ran the disshytance to deliver a report of the wreck at the Canadian Pacific depot

Meanwhile Conductor Thomas Reyshynolds was proving himself a hero in

rescuing eight passengers from the sunken dining car When the wreck occurred Reynolds with W J Bell and David Rrodie had just sat down for an early dinner iieii and Brodie facing the engine and Reynolds sitshyting opposite them and riding back- j wards The diner was the last ear to ] enter the water and did not sink at once but settled slowly while the passengers climbed upon the tables to keep their heads above the rising waters With several passengers standing in water to their chins the situation was desperate

Then it was that Conductor Reyshynolds made a dive to reach a window broke the glass and succeeded in risshying to the surface of the fiver outside the ar Happily he reached the Surshyface where a hole in the ice enabled him to gain a solid footing by resting one arm on the roof of the car and the other on the ice

Some Taken Through Roof Gaining the roof of the car he broke

a fan light with his fist and rescued little Alfonso Rouse] of Sault Ste Marie After the little boy came D M Brodie of Sudbury who was small enough to pass through the fan light Six more passengers who were too big to be rescued in this manner were taken out through a hole broken in the roof of the car

1 never heard snch terrible cries as when those cars went over the bank I shall never forget it as long as I live said Conductor Reynolds I put the killed at between 40 and 50 The first coach carried about 35 or 40 passengers and of this number only one man escaped

Gangs of wreckers to the number of 100 were immediately sent to the scene of the horrible disaster

A NEWTOWN EVERY WEEK

ANamp A NEW SCHOOL EVERY SCHOOL PAY

Toe above caption about represent tbe growth of Cestfral Canada The statement was made not long since by a railroad man who claimed to have made the remarkable discovery that such was the case There is not a district of agt fair amount of settleshyment n any of the three Provinces of Manitoba Saskatchewan and Alberta but has its school and the railways Lave stations every seven or eight miles apart around whieh group the towns some large and some small but each imports nt to its own district Schools ltu3 largely maintained by pubshylic funds and the expense of tuition is but a nominal sum

The final returns of the grain proshyduction for Central Canada for 1909 is now In and the figures show that the value of the crops to the farmers of that country is about 195 million dolshylars as compared with 120 million last year American farmers or those who have gone from the United States will participate largely in these splendid returns and these comprise those who have gone from nearly every State in the Union

One of tbe many proofs that might be put forward showing theimmense wealth that comes to the farmers of Central Canada is seen in tbe sum that has been spent during the past two or three months by the faraers who bare for the time being ceased worrying over the reaper and the thresher and are taking to enjoying themselves for two or three months I+gt is said that fifty thousand people of these Western Provinces spent the holiday season visiting their old homes Host of these passengers paid forty and some forty-five dollars for the round trip Some went to Great Britain some to tbe Continent others to their old homes in Eastern Canada and many thousands went to visit their friends in the States The amount paid alone in transportation would be upward of two million dollars Some make tbe trip every years It need hot be asked Can they afford it With crops yielding them a profit of $20 to $26 per acre and some having as much as twelve hundred or more across tbe question is answered Tbe Canadian Government Agents at difshyferent point in tbe State report that they have interviewed a great many of those who arc now visiting friends Jn tbe different states and they all exshypress themselves as well satisfied and promise to take tome of their friends back witb tbena There It still a lot of free homestead land in splenshydid districts and other land can be purchased st a reasonable price from railway and land companies

IDEA NOT LEO Br M L p B S

Federal License of Corporations i$ Opposed by Many in

Congress

UNLIKELY TG BE MADE UW

Pension Bills Introduced Providing for VolunUer Retired ListmdashTwo Pft Its Want Exposition Marking tfca Canal Opening

WashingtonmdashTb Republican leadshyers in congress practically httve agreed that if it can be accomplished the majority of the Presidents recom-mendaticus shall be enacted into law at this session but there is growing evidence that anions the minority of the recommendations which are to be overlooked the Presidents wish that a law legalizing the federal licensing of incorporations may not be fulfilled at this session In telling Mr Taft that it la unlikely that MB federal licence law is to go through the leaden have made a tacshyit promise that at a future date probshyably at the next session the lecora-mendamption shall be taken up and put through i s some form Xt seems that the plan for the licensing of corporashytions by the federal government has aroused antagonism among some of the Republicans and among a majorshyity of the Democrats it Is understood also that the leading Republicans men who ordinarily can get the rest of the party representatives in line are not over-zealous in their desire that this bill shall become a law cershytainly not at the present time It la Impossible in the absence of any dishyrect statement of the reasons for their objections to tell why it Is that the leaders apparently are determined to postpone action upon this particular piece of legislation but It seems to be assured that consideration of it Is to be postponed until a more convenishyent season

It has beett pretty generally undershystood that bip subsidy was to have hard sailing through the waters of the lower house of congress and not very easy sailing through those of the upshyper house It is impossible of course to foretell just what the fate of subshysidy will be but it seems that one senator who in the cast has been the champion of subsidy this year Is not inclined to look with favor upon i t The senator in question Is Mr Prye of Maine who apparently does not think that the measure recommended by the President and already introshyduced into the house goes anywhere near far enough to suit the shipping interests President Taft has recomshymended legislation of this klcd but the feciling Is in Washington that he will not be particularly disappointed if it does not go through although of course its passage would add one more to the administration victories

Postal Savings Banks One of the most peculiar situations

is that in regard to postal savings banks Much has been written about this matter and in the main former opinion was that the postal savings bank bill might have great trouble in getting sanction for itself from the leaders of both houses As everybody knows the members of the national monetary commission would prefer that consideration of the postal savshyings bank bill should be put off until after the commission has made its reshyport President Taft however Is inshysistent that postal savings bank legisshylation shall be enacted this winter and it is believed to-day that the leaders have agreed uraquo accede to his wishes as they have also agreed to do what he wants them to do in the matter of amendments to the intershystate commerce law and of laws which will safeguard the interests of the nations natural resources

Bills for Veterans Before the military committee of

the house of representatives there are eight principal bills Intended to benefit the veterans of the civil war In several of them there is a specific provision for the creation of what is called a volunteer retired list for the civil war officers who are still living

In the sects tive

Sixteenth congress Repre-Beeman 0 Dawes of Ohio

introduced a bill which if it had beshycome a law would have put all the commissioned officers of the civil war on the veMred list with month-Iy pay of one-half that which they received while they were wearing swords in the field There is a reshytired list for regular officers and the idea of Representative Dawes was to give to the volunteer officers in their

old age a recognition in part at least o the value of their services as com-nilssioned officers The question seemed io be if tbe regulars are paid after retirement why not do the same thing for the volunteers

Representative Dawes is not now In Congress but the provision in his bill which was Intended to carcopy for the volunteer officers has been incor porated in several of the bills which j re now before the military commitshytee for action It seems probable it-4 gt ^nz firtngrrsa will vgtR n

man who wore a bar a leaf an eagle or a star on his shoulder dvring the civil war and who is alive to-day will

as though they were still fighting in the field

Substitute for Pensions Of course pensions assuchfor the

volunteers will brgt done away with if any of tbese bills passes congress because the retired pay will take the pensions place

Likely to Carry $raquo a raquocopyrttfc If the volunteer officers retired bill

passes it is possible that it will carry with it a pension giving enlisted men ol the civil war a pension of $40 per month fijfth sit present pensions be-tug abolished except in cases of total or almost total disability where the present sum paid to the disabled solshydiers exceed 40 per month With the officers and eullstea men and the widows cared for with these specific sums in each case the trouble of penshysion gradations and the chances of fraud are minimised but nevertheless it will cost a huge sum of money the first few years of the measures legai life

According to a classification made by Gen Green B Raum the volunteer officers who would benefit are In number and rank as follows Major generals two brigadier generals 28 colonels 151 lieutenant colonels 195 majors 309 captains 2633 first lieushytenants 2233 second lieutenants 1166-varlons ranks in the navy 160 this bringing the total up to the numshyber given above

Of course a full expression of opinshyion of desirability of such a retired Bat bill as this is not obtainable Soldiers and those who take an interest in mil itary affairs generally are much in fashyvor of the measure The crrtUans who never saw service do not express opinions on the matter in letter form for it seems that few people care to go on record as being opposed to any thing in the nature of a bill for the rcattf of the men who fought In the Heidi even though there may he and probably la a general feeling among civilians that the government is exshytravagant in the matter of pension naytnents

Rivalry for Exposition San Francisco and San Diego cities

of California each wants to be the teent of a great exposition In the year 1915 as a means of marking the opening of the Panama canal Represhysentative Kahn of California has Inshytroduced into tbe house a bill which is now before the committee on inshydustrial arts and expositions to proshyvide for what he designates as the Panama-Pacific exposition Represhysentative Smith of California on beshyhalf of the city of San Diego desires that U shall be the location of what he wishes to be called the Panama-California exposition

It is too early yet to tell whether congress will vote money for governshyment participation in any exposition on the Pacific coast or elsewhere to be held at tbe time of the canal openshying It is assured however that there will be a great celebration on the Tsthmu of Panama at the time that Col Goethala sets for the completion of the great work Early as the day la it la believed that the president of the United States and both houses of congress will go to Panama to give recognition to the completion of the canal Whether or hot there shall be a great exposition in the United States 1ST a matter yet to be decided but it must be said that California shows that it is very much in earnest in the matter of getting the governments sanction for a great exposition of arts industries and manufactures on the Pacific coast in the year 1915 when It la practically assured the Inter-oceanic canal will be open for traffic

Few Bills Before Congress Considering the fact that this Is a

long session of congress comparativeshyly few bills have been introduced into either house or senate There is a marked absence at this session of what is known as freak bills Memshybers of congress are urged constantly by constituents some of whom are a little unbalanced mentally or who beshylong to the class of extreme enthusishyasts to put in bills which no congress possibly could be brought to pass and no committee could be made even to consider These so-called freak bills are introduced by members simply to escape the constant appeals of those who want their measures at least to see the light of print

In congress there is this winter anshyother determined effort to lay the groundwork for a plan which when carshyried to ultimate completion will result in a great boulevard running from the city of Washington to the battlefield of Gettysburg It is the intention If sanction for such a great avenue can be secured to have it known as a memorial of Lincoln A survey he been made of a road from Washington to Gettysburg in a straight line beshytween the capitol and the central point of the famous battlefield and it has been found that tbe road can be bunt without much interference with private property As a matter of fact the people who live along the way have expressed a desire that the work should be carried to completion

Approve Memorial Project There are many old soldiers and

men in ofScial gtife whose memories go back to tbe Lincoln days and some of whom knew Lincoln personally who think that the noble roadway would be the best possible memorial to the war- time president good deal of sentiment in favor of the proposition has been aroused ft the country alshythough it Should be said that considershyable opposition has been developed r n f d u l flpi5raquo J^Oplft raquoltflitj fgt thTT

three or four hundred girls who had filled the college buildings and camshypus with their bright earnest lhfe nci more thaa a Aoxeh remaiocd ftrid all but one of these had their tru-tks packed for speedy departute This one was Mary Cathcart who did uot kcow where she could go if she did PpoundCk -mdashmdash^-

Tbianiornlbg she was standing near the entrance of the lecture hail wonshydering what she should do For ten days t i e had been looking hopefully for a Jitter but none had come NGne seemed likely to come now

She had not specially fitted herself for anything and she rather looked forward to coming back after the sumshymer holidays to take a postgraduate course when if It should seem best she would study for one of the half-dozen railings which many of her schoolmates were already entering upon But it ail depended upon the letter and the letter had not come

A girl but little older than herself came briskly from the building It wasect the French teacher and she waft now going straight to the station to take the next train for home Mary looked at her a little eartonaly

Where do yon got aafeed the teacher

To Loagley Two hours later she was at the stashy

tion and had purchased a ticket She had money enough to pay her exshypenses for a month Beyond that she did not know

Whom should she find st Longley Should she even find anybody A letshyter which had come to her after her mothers death more than four years before bidding her to enter upon a course at this college and stating that money would he sent to her from time to time as before was all she had to go by The letter had been postshymarked Longley

She had always been generously supplied and had furnished her room

1-4 Off

well and had had money to spend Then as the end of the course apshyproached she had confidently looked forward to another letter But none bad come The one postmarked Long-ley was her only clew and even that might have been mailed by some one passing through the place

Her mother had thought the money might come from a wealthy uncle who had had some disagreement with the family and who took this wamp7 of savshying his pride He was eccentric and fond of traveling about from place to place

All tt through her mind as tbm train rushed on At length Long-ley was called and Mary rose and hurried out to the little platform of a small country station

The station master was dragging her trunk back from the edge of the platform where it had been dropped She went to him

There are no Cathcarta here of course she said more as an assershytion than as a question

No guess not never heered of any Be you lookin up some

Tmdashbulles I thought I might find a relshyative here When is the next train

Not till to-morrer She drew a long breath Is there a hotei near Factry boardin house but I guess

A V v bull-- y ijuctuvi- a good -EE7 y^ars bc^re she died Is he very ill Aldry ashed as she went inside gt

Well no not so very now Hes gettin beiter slowly

She was right Mary did Uke it She remembered many of the tempting dishes which she had prepared for her motherland she made them now stagshying little snatches of song as she did so She had not known what she was fitted for Now she knew that she could be a good nurse Perhaps she could also be good at other things but she had not found that out yet

What surprised her most were the books in every room some of which even she looked at with awe They all showed marks of much use as well as lovtag care gt As the days went by these eyes beshygan to follow her as she moved softly about the room contented and lovingshyly at first then with a questioning wlattulnees as though the clouded mind were striving to grasp something it could not quite reach Then one day there were several minutes when the eyes grew clear and intelligent and gazed at her with almost startled wonshyder The next day the lucid Interval was longer and several times repeatshyed But he did not speak he only gazed at her and passed his hand across hhi brow from time to timet

Then came a morning when he was strong enough to sit up In bed but still the wistfulness and wonder reshymained In his eyes

You are a new nurse he said Yes 1 knew it of course but I havent

said anything Imdash-I have been trying to get my mind clear I thought as I got stronger my mind would get betshyter bat it doesnt ImdashIm afraid Its getting worse I suppose Im growshying old and its to be expected but Fve bees planning fcr a good deal of reading and study yetgt and haveut realised how the years slip by

Mary stroked his hand softly T o n cannot get weU at once Mr

Farrar she chUed Yon hare been vary sick you know But you are growing stronger gradually and your brain is growing clearer I can see t t -

Tou dont understand he anshyswered gently my bodys stronger but my mind doesnt seem to gain It made you out to be somebody else from the first and has persisted in the hallucination ever sine Ive tooked in other directions and changed my thoughts to other things but its no use Youve takes care of me so my mind says that youre someshybody whom I used to know a long time ago whos dead I suppose its what folks call second childhood Then changing the subject abruptly How long have I been sick

I do not know I have only been here two weeks It is now the fifshyteenth of July

He looked startled So late he gasped Why Imdash

Ive got a little girl off to school who ought to have been written to long ago Will you bring me my pen and paper from the desk

Let me do It for you she said taking the pen from his shaking finshygers and moving a small table close to his bedside

But he remained silent looking at her doubtiuily ImdashImdashyou see 1 dont write to her directly he said at length hesitatingly Theres an old friend In New York who acts for me He was silent for some minutes longer then went on desperately

The letter must be written and I suppose itll be best to explain things a little You see when I was laquo boy I had a strong notion for college but

settled with the books I liked to read and had lost ambition to go out into the orld But I didntnsive up the idea altogether I would send someshybody la my place_ So I looked round I had no relative save a little girl whom I used to play with when a boy She had married and gone west I traced her and found that her husshyband was dead and that she was an invalid without means That was something nearer than college so I sent her from time to time what monshyey I had to spare When she died I arranged for her girl to go to college

He paused with his gae upon the coverlet his eyes unobservant dreamy reminiscent

Mary had risen her eyes shining Why didnt you write to her direct

iy she breathed Well she was a college girl you

see with college girl notions I liked to think of her as my girl arid to plan things for her If Id written to her directly itmdashmight have been different You see Im just a man of all work In a factory He held up his hands white and transparent from his illness but still knotty and hard from a lifeshytime of toll I dont know much about girls he went on but I want to think of this one as mine and I cant bear the thought of her evermdash

Mr Farrar do you think any girl could be ashamed of you

The quick passionate cry brought his gaze suddenly from the coverlet What he reau in her voice in her eyes brought a lok of rapt understanding to his face

Then my mind isnt wandering he exclaimed tremulously Its she really and truly Mary bring me that tin box in my desk

She brought it and eagerly he ran his fingers through the contents soon finding a tintype which he opened and held up for her inspection It might have been her own picture so exact was the likeness She recognised H with a low cry

I t s your mother Mary he said softly takes Just before h went west

Lord Mayors Banquets The lord mayors banquet on the

night of November 9 was to entertain his majestys ministers In the days of the Georges it was no uncommon thing for royalty to attend the banquet but this is never the case nowadays In 1814 the prince regent afterward George IV accompanied by the emshyperor of Russia and the king of Prusshysia was at the Guildhall feast and the prince was so pleased with the lavish hospitalfty of the new lord mayor tbat he made him a baronet on the spot The price paid for the honor a distinction which always has to be paid for was not inconsiderable for the dinner cost 1125000

Potsdam which isnt a great distance from Berlin and there ere always solshydiers in the German capital on guard before various palaces Besides there is a review almost every morning on the Exercirerplatz and guard mountshying every day at the Konigswache so that it might seem likely that soldiers wouldnt arouse a great deal of intershyest in Berlin

It is however quite the contrary Tbe sound of a band playing sends every one running in the direction of the music Even if it is just a small company going along the streets the loiks appear eager to watch it Whatshyever the cause soldiers apparently are an unchanging novelty In Berlin

You dont say smiled Senator Pettus Do you know I suspected it

Well I advise you not to play with them any more said Senator Frazier

But theres nobody else here to play with Querulously returned the aged senator

Older senators repeat an anecdote of Senator Pettus in which he is repshyresented as returning home after a night at cards just as the morning light was breaking He was at the time of the story 85 years oUtr and Mrs Pettus was but little younger They never addressed each other exshycept as Mr Pettus and Mrs Petshytus

From reports that are coming in from the exvited farmers of that vishycinity it appears that Parker went down ceilar shortly after the three older children had left home for school

He went down there to fil the tank of the acetylene gag plant is what Mrs Parker says

The reason -5s--smpe 7i]e tne English and Scotch have for centuries eaten oatmeal in quantities and with a regularity that has made them the most rnggtd physically and active mentally of all people the American has been eating oatmeal and trying all the time to improve the methods of manufacture so that he might get that desirable foreign trade

Experiments satisfied me some 5 years ago writes a Topeka woman that coffee was the direct cause of the insomnia from which I suffered ter ribly as well as the extreme nervousshyness and acute dyspepsia which made life a most painful thing for me

I had been a coffee drinker since childhood and did not like to think that the beverage was doing me all this harm But it was and the time came when I had to face the fact and proshytect myself I therefore gave up coffee abruptly and absolutely and adopted Posium as my hot drink at meals

I began to note improvement in my condition very soon after I took on Postum The change proceeded gradshyually but surely and it was a matter of only a few weeks before I found myshyself entirely relieved -the nervousness passed away my digestive apparatus was restored to nomn 1 efficiency and I began to sleep restfully and peaceshyfully

Three uoatiad Coaches are Submerged in RivermdashConductor fteynold Hrkgti-caliy Rescues Eight Through Roof of Dining Car

Death iu 1 its most terrible forms blotted out the lives of a t leasttwo aceie people when Your car^ of a Cashynadian Pacific passenger trail on the Sc-o branch leaped from the tracks near Sudbury Ont and went tearing down a steep embankment plunging through the ice-covered surface of the Spanish river

Suiue were drowned others were crushed to death in grinding timbers

Most terrible of all maimed and injured caught In the wreckage of one of the cars were burned to death

The exact number of dead and inshyjured was still unknown but accordshying to stories told by injured passenshygers brought to Sudbury it was one of the worst catastrophes in the hisshytory of Canadian railroads

Tbe train wrecked was known as No 7 en route from Montreal to Sault Ste Marie and Minneapolis An offishycial statement given out says that it probably was due to a broken rail

Front Cars Stay on Track The engine baggage express mail

and one second class car remained on the rails while one second class one first class a dining car and a sleeper went down the embankment The first class car and diner went into the river The sleeper and second class car stopped on the embankment the second cass car catching fire

The wreck odcurred about 37 miles west of Sudbury where the tracks cut into the side of a steep hill which is skirted by the river The forward part of the train passed over the break whatever it was in safety The day coach which was the fourth from the end of the train was the first to leave the rails bull bullgt bull

The train was running at the rate of about 40 miles an hour and the momentum carried the car down the hill in a terrific plnnge About 25 passengers were in this car and it Is practically certain that none escaped

Only the Roof Above Water Two minutes after the first crash

only the roof of the day coach showed above the flowing Ice In the river The second class car the next in the train smashed against tbe end cf a culvert and was crushed to splinters Some of tbe passengers were killed outright but others caught in the wreckage which almost immediately broke into flames were roasted to death before they could be resented

Uninjured passengers and trainmen immediately turned their attention to the rescue of passengers imperiled by the fire

The telegraph lines were all torn down and It was evident that relief could flot be summoned by wire It was five miles to the village of Nairn and a drenched survivor ran the disshytance to deliver a report of the wreck at the Canadian Pacific depot

Meanwhile Conductor Thomas Reyshynolds was proving himself a hero in

rescuing eight passengers from the sunken dining car When the wreck occurred Reynolds with W J Bell and David Rrodie had just sat down for an early dinner iieii and Brodie facing the engine and Reynolds sitshyting opposite them and riding back- j wards The diner was the last ear to ] enter the water and did not sink at once but settled slowly while the passengers climbed upon the tables to keep their heads above the rising waters With several passengers standing in water to their chins the situation was desperate

Then it was that Conductor Reyshynolds made a dive to reach a window broke the glass and succeeded in risshying to the surface of the fiver outside the ar Happily he reached the Surshyface where a hole in the ice enabled him to gain a solid footing by resting one arm on the roof of the car and the other on the ice

Some Taken Through Roof Gaining the roof of the car he broke

a fan light with his fist and rescued little Alfonso Rouse] of Sault Ste Marie After the little boy came D M Brodie of Sudbury who was small enough to pass through the fan light Six more passengers who were too big to be rescued in this manner were taken out through a hole broken in the roof of the car

1 never heard snch terrible cries as when those cars went over the bank I shall never forget it as long as I live said Conductor Reynolds I put the killed at between 40 and 50 The first coach carried about 35 or 40 passengers and of this number only one man escaped

Gangs of wreckers to the number of 100 were immediately sent to the scene of the horrible disaster

A NEWTOWN EVERY WEEK

ANamp A NEW SCHOOL EVERY SCHOOL PAY

Toe above caption about represent tbe growth of Cestfral Canada The statement was made not long since by a railroad man who claimed to have made the remarkable discovery that such was the case There is not a district of agt fair amount of settleshyment n any of the three Provinces of Manitoba Saskatchewan and Alberta but has its school and the railways Lave stations every seven or eight miles apart around whieh group the towns some large and some small but each imports nt to its own district Schools ltu3 largely maintained by pubshylic funds and the expense of tuition is but a nominal sum

The final returns of the grain proshyduction for Central Canada for 1909 is now In and the figures show that the value of the crops to the farmers of that country is about 195 million dolshylars as compared with 120 million last year American farmers or those who have gone from the United States will participate largely in these splendid returns and these comprise those who have gone from nearly every State in the Union

One of tbe many proofs that might be put forward showing theimmense wealth that comes to the farmers of Central Canada is seen in tbe sum that has been spent during the past two or three months by the faraers who bare for the time being ceased worrying over the reaper and the thresher and are taking to enjoying themselves for two or three months I+gt is said that fifty thousand people of these Western Provinces spent the holiday season visiting their old homes Host of these passengers paid forty and some forty-five dollars for the round trip Some went to Great Britain some to tbe Continent others to their old homes in Eastern Canada and many thousands went to visit their friends in the States The amount paid alone in transportation would be upward of two million dollars Some make tbe trip every years It need hot be asked Can they afford it With crops yielding them a profit of $20 to $26 per acre and some having as much as twelve hundred or more across tbe question is answered Tbe Canadian Government Agents at difshyferent point in tbe State report that they have interviewed a great many of those who arc now visiting friends Jn tbe different states and they all exshypress themselves as well satisfied and promise to take tome of their friends back witb tbena There It still a lot of free homestead land in splenshydid districts and other land can be purchased st a reasonable price from railway and land companies

EPIDEMIC OF ITCH IN WELSH VILLAGE

In Dowlaisi South Wales about fifshyteen years ago families were strickshyen wholesale by a disease known as the itch Believe me it is tbe most terrible disease of its kind that I know of as It itches all through your body and makes your life an inferno Sleep i out of the question and you feel as If a million mosquitoes were attacking yon at tbe same time I knew a dozen families that were so affected

The doctors did their best bnt their remedies were of no avail whatshyever Then the families trisd a drugshygist who was noted far and wide for bis remarkable cures People came to bim frcm all parta of the country for treatment but bis medicine made matters still worse as a last resort t iey were advised by a friend to use the Cuticura Remedies t am glad to eraquo yon that after a few days treatshyment witb Cuticura Soap Ointment and Resolvent tbe effect was wondershyful and tbe result was a perfect cere m all cases

I may add that my three brothers t i ree sisters myself and all our famshyilies hare been users of the Cuticura Remedies for fifteen years Thomas Hugh 1650 West Huron St Chicago Hi June 29 1909

IDEA NOT LEO Br M L p B S

Federal License of Corporations i$ Opposed by Many in

Congress

UNLIKELY TG BE MADE UW

Pension Bills Introduced Providing for VolunUer Retired ListmdashTwo Pft Its Want Exposition Marking tfca Canal Opening

WashingtonmdashTb Republican leadshyers in congress practically httve agreed that if it can be accomplished the majority of the Presidents recom-mendaticus shall be enacted into law at this session but there is growing evidence that anions the minority of the recommendations which are to be overlooked the Presidents wish that a law legalizing the federal licensing of incorporations may not be fulfilled at this session In telling Mr Taft that it la unlikely that MB federal licence law is to go through the leaden have made a tacshyit promise that at a future date probshyably at the next session the lecora-mendamption shall be taken up and put through i s some form Xt seems that the plan for the licensing of corporashytions by the federal government has aroused antagonism among some of the Republicans and among a majorshyity of the Democrats it Is understood also that the leading Republicans men who ordinarily can get the rest of the party representatives in line are not over-zealous in their desire that this bill shall become a law cershytainly not at the present time It la Impossible in the absence of any dishyrect statement of the reasons for their objections to tell why it Is that the leaders apparently are determined to postpone action upon this particular piece of legislation but It seems to be assured that consideration of it Is to be postponed until a more convenishyent season

It has beett pretty generally undershystood that bip subsidy was to have hard sailing through the waters of the lower house of congress and not very easy sailing through those of the upshyper house It is impossible of course to foretell just what the fate of subshysidy will be but it seems that one senator who in the cast has been the champion of subsidy this year Is not inclined to look with favor upon i t The senator in question Is Mr Prye of Maine who apparently does not think that the measure recommended by the President and already introshyduced into the house goes anywhere near far enough to suit the shipping interests President Taft has recomshymended legislation of this klcd but the feciling Is in Washington that he will not be particularly disappointed if it does not go through although of course its passage would add one more to the administration victories

Postal Savings Banks One of the most peculiar situations

is that in regard to postal savings banks Much has been written about this matter and in the main former opinion was that the postal savings bank bill might have great trouble in getting sanction for itself from the leaders of both houses As everybody knows the members of the national monetary commission would prefer that consideration of the postal savshyings bank bill should be put off until after the commission has made its reshyport President Taft however Is inshysistent that postal savings bank legisshylation shall be enacted this winter and it is believed to-day that the leaders have agreed uraquo accede to his wishes as they have also agreed to do what he wants them to do in the matter of amendments to the intershystate commerce law and of laws which will safeguard the interests of the nations natural resources

Bills for Veterans Before the military committee of

the house of representatives there are eight principal bills Intended to benefit the veterans of the civil war In several of them there is a specific provision for the creation of what is called a volunteer retired list for the civil war officers who are still living

In the sects tive

Sixteenth congress Repre-Beeman 0 Dawes of Ohio

introduced a bill which if it had beshycome a law would have put all the commissioned officers of the civil war on the veMred list with month-Iy pay of one-half that which they received while they were wearing swords in the field There is a reshytired list for regular officers and the idea of Representative Dawes was to give to the volunteer officers in their

old age a recognition in part at least o the value of their services as com-nilssioned officers The question seemed io be if tbe regulars are paid after retirement why not do the same thing for the volunteers

Representative Dawes is not now In Congress but the provision in his bill which was Intended to carcopy for the volunteer officers has been incor porated in several of the bills which j re now before the military commitshytee for action It seems probable it-4 gt ^nz firtngrrsa will vgtR n

man who wore a bar a leaf an eagle or a star on his shoulder dvring the civil war and who is alive to-day will

as though they were still fighting in the field

Substitute for Pensions Of course pensions assuchfor the

volunteers will brgt done away with if any of tbese bills passes congress because the retired pay will take the pensions place

Likely to Carry $raquo a raquocopyrttfc If the volunteer officers retired bill

passes it is possible that it will carry with it a pension giving enlisted men ol the civil war a pension of $40 per month fijfth sit present pensions be-tug abolished except in cases of total or almost total disability where the present sum paid to the disabled solshydiers exceed 40 per month With the officers and eullstea men and the widows cared for with these specific sums in each case the trouble of penshysion gradations and the chances of fraud are minimised but nevertheless it will cost a huge sum of money the first few years of the measures legai life

According to a classification made by Gen Green B Raum the volunteer officers who would benefit are In number and rank as follows Major generals two brigadier generals 28 colonels 151 lieutenant colonels 195 majors 309 captains 2633 first lieushytenants 2233 second lieutenants 1166-varlons ranks in the navy 160 this bringing the total up to the numshyber given above

Of course a full expression of opinshyion of desirability of such a retired Bat bill as this is not obtainable Soldiers and those who take an interest in mil itary affairs generally are much in fashyvor of the measure The crrtUans who never saw service do not express opinions on the matter in letter form for it seems that few people care to go on record as being opposed to any thing in the nature of a bill for the rcattf of the men who fought In the Heidi even though there may he and probably la a general feeling among civilians that the government is exshytravagant in the matter of pension naytnents

Rivalry for Exposition San Francisco and San Diego cities

of California each wants to be the teent of a great exposition In the year 1915 as a means of marking the opening of the Panama canal Represhysentative Kahn of California has Inshytroduced into tbe house a bill which is now before the committee on inshydustrial arts and expositions to proshyvide for what he designates as the Panama-Pacific exposition Represhysentative Smith of California on beshyhalf of the city of San Diego desires that U shall be the location of what he wishes to be called the Panama-California exposition

It is too early yet to tell whether congress will vote money for governshyment participation in any exposition on the Pacific coast or elsewhere to be held at tbe time of the canal openshying It is assured however that there will be a great celebration on the Tsthmu of Panama at the time that Col Goethala sets for the completion of the great work Early as the day la it la believed that the president of the United States and both houses of congress will go to Panama to give recognition to the completion of the canal Whether or hot there shall be a great exposition in the United States 1ST a matter yet to be decided but it must be said that California shows that it is very much in earnest in the matter of getting the governments sanction for a great exposition of arts industries and manufactures on the Pacific coast in the year 1915 when It la practically assured the Inter-oceanic canal will be open for traffic

Few Bills Before Congress Considering the fact that this Is a

long session of congress comparativeshyly few bills have been introduced into either house or senate There is a marked absence at this session of what is known as freak bills Memshybers of congress are urged constantly by constituents some of whom are a little unbalanced mentally or who beshylong to the class of extreme enthusishyasts to put in bills which no congress possibly could be brought to pass and no committee could be made even to consider These so-called freak bills are introduced by members simply to escape the constant appeals of those who want their measures at least to see the light of print

In congress there is this winter anshyother determined effort to lay the groundwork for a plan which when carshyried to ultimate completion will result in a great boulevard running from the city of Washington to the battlefield of Gettysburg It is the intention If sanction for such a great avenue can be secured to have it known as a memorial of Lincoln A survey he been made of a road from Washington to Gettysburg in a straight line beshytween the capitol and the central point of the famous battlefield and it has been found that tbe road can be bunt without much interference with private property As a matter of fact the people who live along the way have expressed a desire that the work should be carried to completion

Approve Memorial Project There are many old soldiers and

men in ofScial gtife whose memories go back to tbe Lincoln days and some of whom knew Lincoln personally who think that the noble roadway would be the best possible memorial to the war- time president good deal of sentiment in favor of the proposition has been aroused ft the country alshythough it Should be said that considershyable opposition has been developed r n f d u l flpi5raquo J^Oplft raquoltflitj fgt thTT

Tbianiornlbg she was standing near the entrance of the lecture hail wonshydering what she should do For ten days t i e had been looking hopefully for a Jitter but none had come NGne seemed likely to come now

She had not specially fitted herself for anything and she rather looked forward to coming back after the sumshymer holidays to take a postgraduate course when if It should seem best she would study for one of the half-dozen railings which many of her schoolmates were already entering upon But it ail depended upon the letter and the letter had not come

Her mother had thought the money might come from a wealthy uncle who had had some disagreement with the family and who took this wamp7 of savshying his pride He was eccentric and fond of traveling about from place to place

All tt through her mind as tbm train rushed on At length Long-ley was called and Mary rose and hurried out to the little platform of a small country station

The station master was dragging her trunk back from the edge of the platform where it had been dropped She went to him

A V v bull-- y ijuctuvi- a good -EE7 y^ars bc^re she died Is he very ill Aldry ashed as she went inside gt

Well no not so very now Hes gettin beiter slowly

She was right Mary did Uke it She remembered many of the tempting dishes which she had prepared for her motherland she made them now stagshying little snatches of song as she did so She had not known what she was fitted for Now she knew that she could be a good nurse Perhaps she could also be good at other things but she had not found that out yet

What surprised her most were the books in every room some of which even she looked at with awe They all showed marks of much use as well as lovtag care gt As the days went by these eyes beshygan to follow her as she moved softly about the room contented and lovingshyly at first then with a questioning wlattulnees as though the clouded mind were striving to grasp something it could not quite reach Then one day there were several minutes when the eyes grew clear and intelligent and gazed at her with almost startled wonshyder The next day the lucid Interval was longer and several times repeatshyed But he did not speak he only gazed at her and passed his hand across hhi brow from time to timet

Then came a morning when he was strong enough to sit up In bed but still the wistfulness and wonder reshymained In his eyes

You are a new nurse he said Yes 1 knew it of course but I havent

said anything Imdash-I have been trying to get my mind clear I thought as I got stronger my mind would get betshyter bat it doesnt ImdashIm afraid Its getting worse I suppose Im growshying old and its to be expected but Fve bees planning fcr a good deal of reading and study yetgt and haveut realised how the years slip by

Mary stroked his hand softly T o n cannot get weU at once Mr

Farrar she chUed Yon hare been vary sick you know But you are growing stronger gradually and your brain is growing clearer I can see t t -

Tou dont understand he anshyswered gently my bodys stronger but my mind doesnt seem to gain It made you out to be somebody else from the first and has persisted in the hallucination ever sine Ive tooked in other directions and changed my thoughts to other things but its no use Youve takes care of me so my mind says that youre someshybody whom I used to know a long time ago whos dead I suppose its what folks call second childhood Then changing the subject abruptly How long have I been sick

I do not know I have only been here two weeks It is now the fifshyteenth of July

He looked startled So late he gasped Why Imdash

Ive got a little girl off to school who ought to have been written to long ago Will you bring me my pen and paper from the desk

Let me do It for you she said taking the pen from his shaking finshygers and moving a small table close to his bedside

But he remained silent looking at her doubtiuily ImdashImdashyou see 1 dont write to her directly he said at length hesitatingly Theres an old friend In New York who acts for me He was silent for some minutes longer then went on desperately

The letter must be written and I suppose itll be best to explain things a little You see when I was laquo boy I had a strong notion for college but

settled with the books I liked to read and had lost ambition to go out into the orld But I didntnsive up the idea altogether I would send someshybody la my place_ So I looked round I had no relative save a little girl whom I used to play with when a boy She had married and gone west I traced her and found that her husshyband was dead and that she was an invalid without means That was something nearer than college so I sent her from time to time what monshyey I had to spare When she died I arranged for her girl to go to college

He paused with his gae upon the coverlet his eyes unobservant dreamy reminiscent

Mary had risen her eyes shining Why didnt you write to her direct

iy she breathed Well she was a college girl you

see with college girl notions I liked to think of her as my girl arid to plan things for her If Id written to her directly itmdashmight have been different You see Im just a man of all work In a factory He held up his hands white and transparent from his illness but still knotty and hard from a lifeshytime of toll I dont know much about girls he went on but I want to think of this one as mine and I cant bear the thought of her evermdash

Mr Farrar do you think any girl could be ashamed of you

The quick passionate cry brought his gaze suddenly from the coverlet What he reau in her voice in her eyes brought a lok of rapt understanding to his face

Then my mind isnt wandering he exclaimed tremulously Its she really and truly Mary bring me that tin box in my desk

She brought it and eagerly he ran his fingers through the contents soon finding a tintype which he opened and held up for her inspection It might have been her own picture so exact was the likeness She recognised H with a low cry

I t s your mother Mary he said softly takes Just before h went west

An explosion wrecked the brick residence of Scott Parker one wile north of Moscow a village on a Lake Snore branch in the extreme northshyern end of HiUsdale countybullbullkilling Parker and one of his children and Injuring fcis ^ife aiid child also an aunt of the children who lived with the family Three other children of the family were out of the house The dead body of Parker was dug out of the ruins The second injured child is believed to be dying

The reason -5s--smpe 7i]e tne English and Scotch have for centuries eaten oatmeal in quantities and with a regularity that has made them the most rnggtd physically and active mentally of all people the American has been eating oatmeal and trying all the time to improve the methods of manufacture so that he might get that desirable foreign trade

Experiments satisfied me some 5 years ago writes a Topeka woman that coffee was the direct cause of the insomnia from which I suffered ter ribly as well as the extreme nervousshyness and acute dyspepsia which made life a most painful thing for me

I had been a coffee drinker since childhood and did not like to think that the beverage was doing me all this harm But it was and the time came when I had to face the fact and proshytect myself I therefore gave up coffee abruptly and absolutely and adopted Posium as my hot drink at meals

I began to note improvement in my condition very soon after I took on Postum The change proceeded gradshyually but surely and it was a matter of only a few weeks before I found myshyself entirely relieved -the nervousness passed away my digestive apparatus was restored to nomn 1 efficiency and I began to sleep restfully and peaceshyfully

The wreck odcurred about 37 miles west of Sudbury where the tracks cut into the side of a steep hill which is skirted by the river The forward part of the train passed over the break whatever it was in safety The day coach which was the fourth from the end of the train was the first to leave the rails bull bullgt bull

The train was running at the rate of about 40 miles an hour and the momentum carried the car down the hill in a terrific plnnge About 25 passengers were in this car and it Is practically certain that none escaped

Only the Roof Above Water Two minutes after the first crash

only the roof of the day coach showed above the flowing Ice In the river The second class car the next in the train smashed against tbe end cf a culvert and was crushed to splinters Some of tbe passengers were killed outright but others caught in the wreckage which almost immediately broke into flames were roasted to death before they could be resented

Uninjured passengers and trainmen immediately turned their attention to the rescue of passengers imperiled by the fire

The telegraph lines were all torn down and It was evident that relief could flot be summoned by wire It was five miles to the village of Nairn and a drenched survivor ran the disshytance to deliver a report of the wreck at the Canadian Pacific depot

Meanwhile Conductor Thomas Reyshynolds was proving himself a hero in

rescuing eight passengers from the sunken dining car When the wreck occurred Reynolds with W J Bell and David Rrodie had just sat down for an early dinner iieii and Brodie facing the engine and Reynolds sitshyting opposite them and riding back- j wards The diner was the last ear to ] enter the water and did not sink at once but settled slowly while the passengers climbed upon the tables to keep their heads above the rising waters With several passengers standing in water to their chins the situation was desperate

Then it was that Conductor Reyshynolds made a dive to reach a window broke the glass and succeeded in risshying to the surface of the fiver outside the ar Happily he reached the Surshyface where a hole in the ice enabled him to gain a solid footing by resting one arm on the roof of the car and the other on the ice

Some Taken Through Roof Gaining the roof of the car he broke

a fan light with his fist and rescued little Alfonso Rouse] of Sault Ste Marie After the little boy came D M Brodie of Sudbury who was small enough to pass through the fan light Six more passengers who were too big to be rescued in this manner were taken out through a hole broken in the roof of the car

1 never heard snch terrible cries as when those cars went over the bank I shall never forget it as long as I live said Conductor Reynolds I put the killed at between 40 and 50 The first coach carried about 35 or 40 passengers and of this number only one man escaped

Gangs of wreckers to the number of 100 were immediately sent to the scene of the horrible disaster

A NEWTOWN EVERY WEEK

ANamp A NEW SCHOOL EVERY SCHOOL PAY

Toe above caption about represent tbe growth of Cestfral Canada The statement was made not long since by a railroad man who claimed to have made the remarkable discovery that such was the case There is not a district of agt fair amount of settleshyment n any of the three Provinces of Manitoba Saskatchewan and Alberta but has its school and the railways Lave stations every seven or eight miles apart around whieh group the towns some large and some small but each imports nt to its own district Schools ltu3 largely maintained by pubshylic funds and the expense of tuition is but a nominal sum

The final returns of the grain proshyduction for Central Canada for 1909 is now In and the figures show that the value of the crops to the farmers of that country is about 195 million dolshylars as compared with 120 million last year American farmers or those who have gone from the United States will participate largely in these splendid returns and these comprise those who have gone from nearly every State in the Union

One of tbe many proofs that might be put forward showing theimmense wealth that comes to the farmers of Central Canada is seen in tbe sum that has been spent during the past two or three months by the faraers who bare for the time being ceased worrying over the reaper and the thresher and are taking to enjoying themselves for two or three months I+gt is said that fifty thousand people of these Western Provinces spent the holiday season visiting their old homes Host of these passengers paid forty and some forty-five dollars for the round trip Some went to Great Britain some to tbe Continent others to their old homes in Eastern Canada and many thousands went to visit their friends in the States The amount paid alone in transportation would be upward of two million dollars Some make tbe trip every years It need hot be asked Can they afford it With crops yielding them a profit of $20 to $26 per acre and some having as much as twelve hundred or more across tbe question is answered Tbe Canadian Government Agents at difshyferent point in tbe State report that they have interviewed a great many of those who arc now visiting friends Jn tbe different states and they all exshypress themselves as well satisfied and promise to take tome of their friends back witb tbena There It still a lot of free homestead land in splenshydid districts and other land can be purchased st a reasonable price from railway and land companies

In Dowlaisi South Wales about fifshyteen years ago families were strickshyen wholesale by a disease known as the itch Believe me it is tbe most terrible disease of its kind that I know of as It itches all through your body and makes your life an inferno Sleep i out of the question and you feel as If a million mosquitoes were attacking yon at tbe same time I knew a dozen families that were so affected

The doctors did their best bnt their remedies were of no avail whatshyever Then the families trisd a drugshygist who was noted far and wide for bis remarkable cures People came to bim frcm all parta of the country for treatment but bis medicine made matters still worse as a last resort t iey were advised by a friend to use the Cuticura Remedies t am glad to eraquo yon that after a few days treatshyment witb Cuticura Soap Ointment and Resolvent tbe effect was wondershyful and tbe result was a perfect cere m all cases

I may add that my three brothers t i ree sisters myself and all our famshyilies hare been users of the Cuticura Remedies for fifteen years Thomas Hugh 1650 West Huron St Chicago Hi June 29 1909

IDEA NOT LEO Br M L p B S

Federal License of Corporations i$ Opposed by Many in

Congress

UNLIKELY TG BE MADE UW

Pension Bills Introduced Providing for VolunUer Retired ListmdashTwo Pft Its Want Exposition Marking tfca Canal Opening

WashingtonmdashTb Republican leadshyers in congress practically httve agreed that if it can be accomplished the majority of the Presidents recom-mendaticus shall be enacted into law at this session but there is growing evidence that anions the minority of the recommendations which are to be overlooked the Presidents wish that a law legalizing the federal licensing of incorporations may not be fulfilled at this session In telling Mr Taft that it la unlikely that MB federal licence law is to go through the leaden have made a tacshyit promise that at a future date probshyably at the next session the lecora-mendamption shall be taken up and put through i s some form Xt seems that the plan for the licensing of corporashytions by the federal government has aroused antagonism among some of the Republicans and among a majorshyity of the Democrats it Is understood also that the leading Republicans men who ordinarily can get the rest of the party representatives in line are not over-zealous in their desire that this bill shall become a law cershytainly not at the present time It la Impossible in the absence of any dishyrect statement of the reasons for their objections to tell why it Is that the leaders apparently are determined to postpone action upon this particular piece of legislation but It seems to be assured that consideration of it Is to be postponed until a more convenishyent season

It has beett pretty generally undershystood that bip subsidy was to have hard sailing through the waters of the lower house of congress and not very easy sailing through those of the upshyper house It is impossible of course to foretell just what the fate of subshysidy will be but it seems that one senator who in the cast has been the champion of subsidy this year Is not inclined to look with favor upon i t The senator in question Is Mr Prye of Maine who apparently does not think that the measure recommended by the President and already introshyduced into the house goes anywhere near far enough to suit the shipping interests President Taft has recomshymended legislation of this klcd but the feciling Is in Washington that he will not be particularly disappointed if it does not go through although of course its passage would add one more to the administration victories

Postal Savings Banks One of the most peculiar situations

is that in regard to postal savings banks Much has been written about this matter and in the main former opinion was that the postal savings bank bill might have great trouble in getting sanction for itself from the leaders of both houses As everybody knows the members of the national monetary commission would prefer that consideration of the postal savshyings bank bill should be put off until after the commission has made its reshyport President Taft however Is inshysistent that postal savings bank legisshylation shall be enacted this winter and it is believed to-day that the leaders have agreed uraquo accede to his wishes as they have also agreed to do what he wants them to do in the matter of amendments to the intershystate commerce law and of laws which will safeguard the interests of the nations natural resources

Bills for Veterans Before the military committee of

the house of representatives there are eight principal bills Intended to benefit the veterans of the civil war In several of them there is a specific provision for the creation of what is called a volunteer retired list for the civil war officers who are still living

In the sects tive

Sixteenth congress Repre-Beeman 0 Dawes of Ohio

introduced a bill which if it had beshycome a law would have put all the commissioned officers of the civil war on the veMred list with month-Iy pay of one-half that which they received while they were wearing swords in the field There is a reshytired list for regular officers and the idea of Representative Dawes was to give to the volunteer officers in their

old age a recognition in part at least o the value of their services as com-nilssioned officers The question seemed io be if tbe regulars are paid after retirement why not do the same thing for the volunteers

Representative Dawes is not now In Congress but the provision in his bill which was Intended to carcopy for the volunteer officers has been incor porated in several of the bills which j re now before the military commitshytee for action It seems probable it-4 gt ^nz firtngrrsa will vgtR n

man who wore a bar a leaf an eagle or a star on his shoulder dvring the civil war and who is alive to-day will

as though they were still fighting in the field

Substitute for Pensions Of course pensions assuchfor the

volunteers will brgt done away with if any of tbese bills passes congress because the retired pay will take the pensions place

Likely to Carry $raquo a raquocopyrttfc If the volunteer officers retired bill

passes it is possible that it will carry with it a pension giving enlisted men ol the civil war a pension of $40 per month fijfth sit present pensions be-tug abolished except in cases of total or almost total disability where the present sum paid to the disabled solshydiers exceed 40 per month With the officers and eullstea men and the widows cared for with these specific sums in each case the trouble of penshysion gradations and the chances of fraud are minimised but nevertheless it will cost a huge sum of money the first few years of the measures legai life

According to a classification made by Gen Green B Raum the volunteer officers who would benefit are In number and rank as follows Major generals two brigadier generals 28 colonels 151 lieutenant colonels 195 majors 309 captains 2633 first lieushytenants 2233 second lieutenants 1166-varlons ranks in the navy 160 this bringing the total up to the numshyber given above

Of course a full expression of opinshyion of desirability of such a retired Bat bill as this is not obtainable Soldiers and those who take an interest in mil itary affairs generally are much in fashyvor of the measure The crrtUans who never saw service do not express opinions on the matter in letter form for it seems that few people care to go on record as being opposed to any thing in the nature of a bill for the rcattf of the men who fought In the Heidi even though there may he and probably la a general feeling among civilians that the government is exshytravagant in the matter of pension naytnents

Rivalry for Exposition San Francisco and San Diego cities

of California each wants to be the teent of a great exposition In the year 1915 as a means of marking the opening of the Panama canal Represhysentative Kahn of California has Inshytroduced into tbe house a bill which is now before the committee on inshydustrial arts and expositions to proshyvide for what he designates as the Panama-Pacific exposition Represhysentative Smith of California on beshyhalf of the city of San Diego desires that U shall be the location of what he wishes to be called the Panama-California exposition

It is too early yet to tell whether congress will vote money for governshyment participation in any exposition on the Pacific coast or elsewhere to be held at tbe time of the canal openshying It is assured however that there will be a great celebration on the Tsthmu of Panama at the time that Col Goethala sets for the completion of the great work Early as the day la it la believed that the president of the United States and both houses of congress will go to Panama to give recognition to the completion of the canal Whether or hot there shall be a great exposition in the United States 1ST a matter yet to be decided but it must be said that California shows that it is very much in earnest in the matter of getting the governments sanction for a great exposition of arts industries and manufactures on the Pacific coast in the year 1915 when It la practically assured the Inter-oceanic canal will be open for traffic

Few Bills Before Congress Considering the fact that this Is a

long session of congress comparativeshyly few bills have been introduced into either house or senate There is a marked absence at this session of what is known as freak bills Memshybers of congress are urged constantly by constituents some of whom are a little unbalanced mentally or who beshylong to the class of extreme enthusishyasts to put in bills which no congress possibly could be brought to pass and no committee could be made even to consider These so-called freak bills are introduced by members simply to escape the constant appeals of those who want their measures at least to see the light of print

In congress there is this winter anshyother determined effort to lay the groundwork for a plan which when carshyried to ultimate completion will result in a great boulevard running from the city of Washington to the battlefield of Gettysburg It is the intention If sanction for such a great avenue can be secured to have it known as a memorial of Lincoln A survey he been made of a road from Washington to Gettysburg in a straight line beshytween the capitol and the central point of the famous battlefield and it has been found that tbe road can be bunt without much interference with private property As a matter of fact the people who live along the way have expressed a desire that the work should be carried to completion

Approve Memorial Project There are many old soldiers and

men in ofScial gtife whose memories go back to tbe Lincoln days and some of whom knew Lincoln personally who think that the noble roadway would be the best possible memorial to the war- time president good deal of sentiment in favor of the proposition has been aroused ft the country alshythough it Should be said that considershyable opposition has been developed r n f d u l flpi5raquo J^Oplft raquoltflitj fgt thTT

three or four hundred girls who had filled the college buildings and camshypus with their bright earnest lhfe nci more thaa a Aoxeh remaiocd ftrid all but one of these had their tru-tks packed for speedy departute This one was Mary Cathcart who did uot kcow where she could go if she did PpoundCk -mdashmdash^-

Tbianiornlbg she was standing near the entrance of the lecture hail wonshydering what she should do For ten days t i e had been looking hopefully for a Jitter but none had come NGne seemed likely to come now

She had not specially fitted herself for anything and she rather looked forward to coming back after the sumshymer holidays to take a postgraduate course when if It should seem best she would study for one of the half-dozen railings which many of her schoolmates were already entering upon But it ail depended upon the letter and the letter had not come

A girl but little older than herself came briskly from the building It wasect the French teacher and she waft now going straight to the station to take the next train for home Mary looked at her a little eartonaly

Where do yon got aafeed the teacher

To Loagley Two hours later she was at the stashy

tion and had purchased a ticket She had money enough to pay her exshypenses for a month Beyond that she did not know

Whom should she find st Longley Should she even find anybody A letshyter which had come to her after her mothers death more than four years before bidding her to enter upon a course at this college and stating that money would he sent to her from time to time as before was all she had to go by The letter had been postshymarked Longley

She had always been generously supplied and had furnished her room

1-4 Off

well and had had money to spend Then as the end of the course apshyproached she had confidently looked forward to another letter But none bad come The one postmarked Long-ley was her only clew and even that might have been mailed by some one passing through the place

Her mother had thought the money might come from a wealthy uncle who had had some disagreement with the family and who took this wamp7 of savshying his pride He was eccentric and fond of traveling about from place to place

All tt through her mind as tbm train rushed on At length Long-ley was called and Mary rose and hurried out to the little platform of a small country station

The station master was dragging her trunk back from the edge of the platform where it had been dropped She went to him

There are no Cathcarta here of course she said more as an assershytion than as a question

No guess not never heered of any Be you lookin up some

Tmdashbulles I thought I might find a relshyative here When is the next train

Not till to-morrer She drew a long breath Is there a hotei near Factry boardin house but I guess

she started down the most forgot I heered that the wstnan whos Tom is goln off to-day could get her job

Mary nodded her thanks a sudden resolution flashing Into her eyes

She smilingly inquired her way to the home of Mr Farrar There she found a middle-aged woman who greeted her anxiously But on learn lng her errand the womans face cleared

A V v bull-- y ijuctuvi- a good -EE7 y^ars bc^re she died Is he very ill Aldry ashed as she went inside gt

Well no not so very now Hes gettin beiter slowly

She was right Mary did Uke it She remembered many of the tempting dishes which she had prepared for her motherland she made them now stagshying little snatches of song as she did so She had not known what she was fitted for Now she knew that she could be a good nurse Perhaps she could also be good at other things but she had not found that out yet

What surprised her most were the books in every room some of which even she looked at with awe They all showed marks of much use as well as lovtag care gt As the days went by these eyes beshygan to follow her as she moved softly about the room contented and lovingshyly at first then with a questioning wlattulnees as though the clouded mind were striving to grasp something it could not quite reach Then one day there were several minutes when the eyes grew clear and intelligent and gazed at her with almost startled wonshyder The next day the lucid Interval was longer and several times repeatshyed But he did not speak he only gazed at her and passed his hand across hhi brow from time to timet

Then came a morning when he was strong enough to sit up In bed but still the wistfulness and wonder reshymained In his eyes

You are a new nurse he said Yes 1 knew it of course but I havent

said anything Imdash-I have been trying to get my mind clear I thought as I got stronger my mind would get betshyter bat it doesnt ImdashIm afraid Its getting worse I suppose Im growshying old and its to be expected but Fve bees planning fcr a good deal of reading and study yetgt and haveut realised how the years slip by

Mary stroked his hand softly T o n cannot get weU at once Mr

Farrar she chUed Yon hare been vary sick you know But you are growing stronger gradually and your brain is growing clearer I can see t t -

Tou dont understand he anshyswered gently my bodys stronger but my mind doesnt seem to gain It made you out to be somebody else from the first and has persisted in the hallucination ever sine Ive tooked in other directions and changed my thoughts to other things but its no use Youve takes care of me so my mind says that youre someshybody whom I used to know a long time ago whos dead I suppose its what folks call second childhood Then changing the subject abruptly How long have I been sick

I do not know I have only been here two weeks It is now the fifshyteenth of July

He looked startled So late he gasped Why Imdash

Ive got a little girl off to school who ought to have been written to long ago Will you bring me my pen and paper from the desk

Let me do It for you she said taking the pen from his shaking finshygers and moving a small table close to his bedside

But he remained silent looking at her doubtiuily ImdashImdashyou see 1 dont write to her directly he said at length hesitatingly Theres an old friend In New York who acts for me He was silent for some minutes longer then went on desperately

The letter must be written and I suppose itll be best to explain things a little You see when I was laquo boy I had a strong notion for college but

settled with the books I liked to read and had lost ambition to go out into the orld But I didntnsive up the idea altogether I would send someshybody la my place_ So I looked round I had no relative save a little girl whom I used to play with when a boy She had married and gone west I traced her and found that her husshyband was dead and that she was an invalid without means That was something nearer than college so I sent her from time to time what monshyey I had to spare When she died I arranged for her girl to go to college

He paused with his gae upon the coverlet his eyes unobservant dreamy reminiscent

Mary had risen her eyes shining Why didnt you write to her direct

iy she breathed Well she was a college girl you

see with college girl notions I liked to think of her as my girl arid to plan things for her If Id written to her directly itmdashmight have been different You see Im just a man of all work In a factory He held up his hands white and transparent from his illness but still knotty and hard from a lifeshytime of toll I dont know much about girls he went on but I want to think of this one as mine and I cant bear the thought of her evermdash

Mr Farrar do you think any girl could be ashamed of you

The quick passionate cry brought his gaze suddenly from the coverlet What he reau in her voice in her eyes brought a lok of rapt understanding to his face

Then my mind isnt wandering he exclaimed tremulously Its she really and truly Mary bring me that tin box in my desk

She brought it and eagerly he ran his fingers through the contents soon finding a tintype which he opened and held up for her inspection It might have been her own picture so exact was the likeness She recognised H with a low cry

I t s your mother Mary he said softly takes Just before h went west

IDEA NOT LEO Br M L p B S

Federal License of Corporations i$ Opposed by Many in

Congress

UNLIKELY TG BE MADE UW

Pension Bills Introduced Providing for VolunUer Retired ListmdashTwo Pft Its Want Exposition Marking tfca Canal Opening

WashingtonmdashTb Republican leadshyers in congress practically httve agreed that if it can be accomplished the majority of the Presidents recom-mendaticus shall be enacted into law at this session but there is growing evidence that anions the minority of the recommendations which are to be overlooked the Presidents wish that a law legalizing the federal licensing of incorporations may not be fulfilled at this session In telling Mr Taft that it la unlikely that MB federal licence law is to go through the leaden have made a tacshyit promise that at a future date probshyably at the next session the lecora-mendamption shall be taken up and put through i s some form Xt seems that the plan for the licensing of corporashytions by the federal government has aroused antagonism among some of the Republicans and among a majorshyity of the Democrats it Is understood also that the leading Republicans men who ordinarily can get the rest of the party representatives in line are not over-zealous in their desire that this bill shall become a law cershytainly not at the present time It la Impossible in the absence of any dishyrect statement of the reasons for their objections to tell why it Is that the leaders apparently are determined to postpone action upon this particular piece of legislation but It seems to be assured that consideration of it Is to be postponed until a more convenishyent season

It has beett pretty generally undershystood that bip subsidy was to have hard sailing through the waters of the lower house of congress and not very easy sailing through those of the upshyper house It is impossible of course to foretell just what the fate of subshysidy will be but it seems that one senator who in the cast has been the champion of subsidy this year Is not inclined to look with favor upon i t The senator in question Is Mr Prye of Maine who apparently does not think that the measure recommended by the President and already introshyduced into the house goes anywhere near far enough to suit the shipping interests President Taft has recomshymended legislation of this klcd but the feciling Is in Washington that he will not be particularly disappointed if it does not go through although of course its passage would add one more to the administration victories

Postal Savings Banks One of the most peculiar situations

is that in regard to postal savings banks Much has been written about this matter and in the main former opinion was that the postal savings bank bill might have great trouble in getting sanction for itself from the leaders of both houses As everybody knows the members of the national monetary commission would prefer that consideration of the postal savshyings bank bill should be put off until after the commission has made its reshyport President Taft however Is inshysistent that postal savings bank legisshylation shall be enacted this winter and it is believed to-day that the leaders have agreed uraquo accede to his wishes as they have also agreed to do what he wants them to do in the matter of amendments to the intershystate commerce law and of laws which will safeguard the interests of the nations natural resources

Bills for Veterans Before the military committee of

the house of representatives there are eight principal bills Intended to benefit the veterans of the civil war In several of them there is a specific provision for the creation of what is called a volunteer retired list for the civil war officers who are still living

In the sects tive

Sixteenth congress Repre-Beeman 0 Dawes of Ohio

introduced a bill which if it had beshycome a law would have put all the commissioned officers of the civil war on the veMred list with month-Iy pay of one-half that which they received while they were wearing swords in the field There is a reshytired list for regular officers and the idea of Representative Dawes was to give to the volunteer officers in their

old age a recognition in part at least o the value of their services as com-nilssioned officers The question seemed io be if tbe regulars are paid after retirement why not do the same thing for the volunteers

Representative Dawes is not now In Congress but the provision in his bill which was Intended to carcopy for the volunteer officers has been incor porated in several of the bills which j re now before the military commitshytee for action It seems probable it-4 gt ^nz firtngrrsa will vgtR n

man who wore a bar a leaf an eagle or a star on his shoulder dvring the civil war and who is alive to-day will

as though they were still fighting in the field

Substitute for Pensions Of course pensions assuchfor the

volunteers will brgt done away with if any of tbese bills passes congress because the retired pay will take the pensions place

Likely to Carry $raquo a raquocopyrttfc If the volunteer officers retired bill

passes it is possible that it will carry with it a pension giving enlisted men ol the civil war a pension of $40 per month fijfth sit present pensions be-tug abolished except in cases of total or almost total disability where the present sum paid to the disabled solshydiers exceed 40 per month With the officers and eullstea men and the widows cared for with these specific sums in each case the trouble of penshysion gradations and the chances of fraud are minimised but nevertheless it will cost a huge sum of money the first few years of the measures legai life

According to a classification made by Gen Green B Raum the volunteer officers who would benefit are In number and rank as follows Major generals two brigadier generals 28 colonels 151 lieutenant colonels 195 majors 309 captains 2633 first lieushytenants 2233 second lieutenants 1166-varlons ranks in the navy 160 this bringing the total up to the numshyber given above

Of course a full expression of opinshyion of desirability of such a retired Bat bill as this is not obtainable Soldiers and those who take an interest in mil itary affairs generally are much in fashyvor of the measure The crrtUans who never saw service do not express opinions on the matter in letter form for it seems that few people care to go on record as being opposed to any thing in the nature of a bill for the rcattf of the men who fought In the Heidi even though there may he and probably la a general feeling among civilians that the government is exshytravagant in the matter of pension naytnents

Rivalry for Exposition San Francisco and San Diego cities

of California each wants to be the teent of a great exposition In the year 1915 as a means of marking the opening of the Panama canal Represhysentative Kahn of California has Inshytroduced into tbe house a bill which is now before the committee on inshydustrial arts and expositions to proshyvide for what he designates as the Panama-Pacific exposition Represhysentative Smith of California on beshyhalf of the city of San Diego desires that U shall be the location of what he wishes to be called the Panama-California exposition

It is too early yet to tell whether congress will vote money for governshyment participation in any exposition on the Pacific coast or elsewhere to be held at tbe time of the canal openshying It is assured however that there will be a great celebration on the Tsthmu of Panama at the time that Col Goethala sets for the completion of the great work Early as the day la it la believed that the president of the United States and both houses of congress will go to Panama to give recognition to the completion of the canal Whether or hot there shall be a great exposition in the United States 1ST a matter yet to be decided but it must be said that California shows that it is very much in earnest in the matter of getting the governments sanction for a great exposition of arts industries and manufactures on the Pacific coast in the year 1915 when It la practically assured the Inter-oceanic canal will be open for traffic

Few Bills Before Congress Considering the fact that this Is a

long session of congress comparativeshyly few bills have been introduced into either house or senate There is a marked absence at this session of what is known as freak bills Memshybers of congress are urged constantly by constituents some of whom are a little unbalanced mentally or who beshylong to the class of extreme enthusishyasts to put in bills which no congress possibly could be brought to pass and no committee could be made even to consider These so-called freak bills are introduced by members simply to escape the constant appeals of those who want their measures at least to see the light of print

In congress there is this winter anshyother determined effort to lay the groundwork for a plan which when carshyried to ultimate completion will result in a great boulevard running from the city of Washington to the battlefield of Gettysburg It is the intention If sanction for such a great avenue can be secured to have it known as a memorial of Lincoln A survey he been made of a road from Washington to Gettysburg in a straight line beshytween the capitol and the central point of the famous battlefield and it has been found that tbe road can be bunt without much interference with private property As a matter of fact the people who live along the way have expressed a desire that the work should be carried to completion

Approve Memorial Project There are many old soldiers and

men in ofScial gtife whose memories go back to tbe Lincoln days and some of whom knew Lincoln personally who think that the noble roadway would be the best possible memorial to the war- time president good deal of sentiment in favor of the proposition has been aroused ft the country alshythough it Should be said that considershyable opposition has been developed r n f d u l flpi5raquo J^Oplft raquoltflitj fgt thTT

three or four hundred girls who had filled the college buildings and camshypus with their bright earnest lhfe nci more thaa a Aoxeh remaiocd ftrid all but one of these had their tru-tks packed for speedy departute This one was Mary Cathcart who did uot kcow where she could go if she did PpoundCk -mdashmdash^-

Tbianiornlbg she was standing near the entrance of the lecture hail wonshydering what she should do For ten days t i e had been looking hopefully for a Jitter but none had come NGne seemed likely to come now

She had not specially fitted herself for anything and she rather looked forward to coming back after the sumshymer holidays to take a postgraduate course when if It should seem best she would study for one of the half-dozen railings which many of her schoolmates were already entering upon But it ail depended upon the letter and the letter had not come

A girl but little older than herself came briskly from the building It wasect the French teacher and she waft now going straight to the station to take the next train for home Mary looked at her a little eartonaly

Where do yon got aafeed the teacher

To Loagley Two hours later she was at the stashy

tion and had purchased a ticket She had money enough to pay her exshypenses for a month Beyond that she did not know

Whom should she find st Longley Should she even find anybody A letshyter which had come to her after her mothers death more than four years before bidding her to enter upon a course at this college and stating that money would he sent to her from time to time as before was all she had to go by The letter had been postshymarked Longley

She had always been generously supplied and had furnished her room

1-4 Off

well and had had money to spend Then as the end of the course apshyproached she had confidently looked forward to another letter But none bad come The one postmarked Long-ley was her only clew and even that might have been mailed by some one passing through the place

Her mother had thought the money might come from a wealthy uncle who had had some disagreement with the family and who took this wamp7 of savshying his pride He was eccentric and fond of traveling about from place to place

All tt through her mind as tbm train rushed on At length Long-ley was called and Mary rose and hurried out to the little platform of a small country station

The station master was dragging her trunk back from the edge of the platform where it had been dropped She went to him

There are no Cathcarta here of course she said more as an assershytion than as a question

No guess not never heered of any Be you lookin up some

Tmdashbulles I thought I might find a relshyative here When is the next train

Not till to-morrer She drew a long breath Is there a hotei near Factry boardin house but I guess

its pretty full Thats it down yonshyder pointing with his finger the house with a blind swingin on the hinge Be you lookin for a job I hear theyre needin two or three more weavers Thats the only job I know of unless its old Tom Far-

she started down the most forgot I heered that the wstnan whos Tom is goln off to-day could get her job

Mary nodded her thanks a sudden resolution flashing Into her eyes

She smilingly inquired her way to the home of Mr Farrar There she found a middle-aged woman who greeted her anxiously But on learn lng her errand the womans face cleared

A V v bull-- y ijuctuvi- a good -EE7 y^ars bc^re she died Is he very ill Aldry ashed as she went inside gt

Well no not so very now Hes gettin beiter slowly

She was right Mary did Uke it She remembered many of the tempting dishes which she had prepared for her motherland she made them now stagshying little snatches of song as she did so She had not known what she was fitted for Now she knew that she could be a good nurse Perhaps she could also be good at other things but she had not found that out yet

What surprised her most were the books in every room some of which even she looked at with awe They all showed marks of much use as well as lovtag care gt As the days went by these eyes beshygan to follow her as she moved softly about the room contented and lovingshyly at first then with a questioning wlattulnees as though the clouded mind were striving to grasp something it could not quite reach Then one day there were several minutes when the eyes grew clear and intelligent and gazed at her with almost startled wonshyder The next day the lucid Interval was longer and several times repeatshyed But he did not speak he only gazed at her and passed his hand across hhi brow from time to timet

Then came a morning when he was strong enough to sit up In bed but still the wistfulness and wonder reshymained In his eyes

You are a new nurse he said Yes 1 knew it of course but I havent

said anything Imdash-I have been trying to get my mind clear I thought as I got stronger my mind would get betshyter bat it doesnt ImdashIm afraid Its getting worse I suppose Im growshying old and its to be expected but Fve bees planning fcr a good deal of reading and study yetgt and haveut realised how the years slip by

Mary stroked his hand softly T o n cannot get weU at once Mr

Farrar she chUed Yon hare been vary sick you know But you are growing stronger gradually and your brain is growing clearer I can see t t -

Tou dont understand he anshyswered gently my bodys stronger but my mind doesnt seem to gain It made you out to be somebody else from the first and has persisted in the hallucination ever sine Ive tooked in other directions and changed my thoughts to other things but its no use Youve takes care of me so my mind says that youre someshybody whom I used to know a long time ago whos dead I suppose its what folks call second childhood Then changing the subject abruptly How long have I been sick

I do not know I have only been here two weeks It is now the fifshyteenth of July

He looked startled So late he gasped Why Imdash

Ive got a little girl off to school who ought to have been written to long ago Will you bring me my pen and paper from the desk

Let me do It for you she said taking the pen from his shaking finshygers and moving a small table close to his bedside

But he remained silent looking at her doubtiuily ImdashImdashyou see 1 dont write to her directly he said at length hesitatingly Theres an old friend In New York who acts for me He was silent for some minutes longer then went on desperately

The letter must be written and I suppose itll be best to explain things a little You see when I was laquo boy I had a strong notion for college but

settled with the books I liked to read and had lost ambition to go out into the orld But I didntnsive up the idea altogether I would send someshybody la my place_ So I looked round I had no relative save a little girl whom I used to play with when a boy She had married and gone west I traced her and found that her husshyband was dead and that she was an invalid without means That was something nearer than college so I sent her from time to time what monshyey I had to spare When she died I arranged for her girl to go to college

He paused with his gae upon the coverlet his eyes unobservant dreamy reminiscent

Mary had risen her eyes shining Why didnt you write to her direct

iy she breathed Well she was a college girl you

see with college girl notions I liked to think of her as my girl arid to plan things for her If Id written to her directly itmdashmight have been different You see Im just a man of all work In a factory He held up his hands white and transparent from his illness but still knotty and hard from a lifeshytime of toll I dont know much about girls he went on but I want to think of this one as mine and I cant bear the thought of her evermdash

Mr Farrar do you think any girl could be ashamed of you

The quick passionate cry brought his gaze suddenly from the coverlet What he reau in her voice in her eyes brought a lok of rapt understanding to his face

Then my mind isnt wandering he exclaimed tremulously Its she really and truly Mary bring me that tin box in my desk

She brought it and eagerly he ran his fingers through the contents soon finding a tintype which he opened and held up for her inspection It might have been her own picture so exact was the likeness She recognised H with a low cry

I t s your mother Mary he said softly takes Just before h went west

three or four hundred girls who had filled the college buildings and camshypus with their bright earnest lhfe nci more thaa a Aoxeh remaiocd ftrid all but one of these had their tru-tks packed for speedy departute This one was Mary Cathcart who did uot kcow where she could go if she did PpoundCk -mdashmdash^-

Tbianiornlbg she was standing near the entrance of the lecture hail wonshydering what she should do For ten days t i e had been looking hopefully for a Jitter but none had come NGne seemed likely to come now

She had not specially fitted herself for anything and she rather looked forward to coming back after the sumshymer holidays to take a postgraduate course when if It should seem best she would study for one of the half-dozen railings which many of her schoolmates were already entering upon But it ail depended upon the letter and the letter had not come

A girl but little older than herself came briskly from the building It wasect the French teacher and she waft now going straight to the station to take the next train for home Mary looked at her a little eartonaly

Where do yon got aafeed the teacher

To Loagley Two hours later she was at the stashy

tion and had purchased a ticket She had money enough to pay her exshypenses for a month Beyond that she did not know

Whom should she find st Longley Should she even find anybody A letshyter which had come to her after her mothers death more than four years before bidding her to enter upon a course at this college and stating that money would he sent to her from time to time as before was all she had to go by The letter had been postshymarked Longley

She had always been generously supplied and had furnished her room

1-4 Off

well and had had money to spend Then as the end of the course apshyproached she had confidently looked forward to another letter But none bad come The one postmarked Long-ley was her only clew and even that might have been mailed by some one passing through the place

Her mother had thought the money might come from a wealthy uncle who had had some disagreement with the family and who took this wamp7 of savshying his pride He was eccentric and fond of traveling about from place to place

All tt through her mind as tbm train rushed on At length Long-ley was called and Mary rose and hurried out to the little platform of a small country station

The station master was dragging her trunk back from the edge of the platform where it had been dropped She went to him

There are no Cathcarta here of course she said more as an assershytion than as a question

No guess not never heered of any Be you lookin up some

Tmdashbulles I thought I might find a relshyative here When is the next train

Not till to-morrer She drew a long breath Is there a hotei near Factry boardin house but I guess

she started down the most forgot I heered that the wstnan whos Tom is goln off to-day could get her job

Mary nodded her thanks a sudden resolution flashing Into her eyes

She smilingly inquired her way to the home of Mr Farrar There she found a middle-aged woman who greeted her anxiously But on learn lng her errand the womans face cleared

A V v bull-- y ijuctuvi- a good -EE7 y^ars bc^re she died Is he very ill Aldry ashed as she went inside gt

Well no not so very now Hes gettin beiter slowly

She was right Mary did Uke it She remembered many of the tempting dishes which she had prepared for her motherland she made them now stagshying little snatches of song as she did so She had not known what she was fitted for Now she knew that she could be a good nurse Perhaps she could also be good at other things but she had not found that out yet

What surprised her most were the books in every room some of which even she looked at with awe They all showed marks of much use as well as lovtag care gt As the days went by these eyes beshygan to follow her as she moved softly about the room contented and lovingshyly at first then with a questioning wlattulnees as though the clouded mind were striving to grasp something it could not quite reach Then one day there were several minutes when the eyes grew clear and intelligent and gazed at her with almost startled wonshyder The next day the lucid Interval was longer and several times repeatshyed But he did not speak he only gazed at her and passed his hand across hhi brow from time to timet

Then came a morning when he was strong enough to sit up In bed but still the wistfulness and wonder reshymained In his eyes

You are a new nurse he said Yes 1 knew it of course but I havent

said anything Imdash-I have been trying to get my mind clear I thought as I got stronger my mind would get betshyter bat it doesnt ImdashIm afraid Its getting worse I suppose Im growshying old and its to be expected but Fve bees planning fcr a good deal of reading and study yetgt and haveut realised how the years slip by

Mary stroked his hand softly T o n cannot get weU at once Mr

Farrar she chUed Yon hare been vary sick you know But you are growing stronger gradually and your brain is growing clearer I can see t t -

Tou dont understand he anshyswered gently my bodys stronger but my mind doesnt seem to gain It made you out to be somebody else from the first and has persisted in the hallucination ever sine Ive tooked in other directions and changed my thoughts to other things but its no use Youve takes care of me so my mind says that youre someshybody whom I used to know a long time ago whos dead I suppose its what folks call second childhood Then changing the subject abruptly How long have I been sick

I do not know I have only been here two weeks It is now the fifshyteenth of July

He looked startled So late he gasped Why Imdash

Ive got a little girl off to school who ought to have been written to long ago Will you bring me my pen and paper from the desk

Let me do It for you she said taking the pen from his shaking finshygers and moving a small table close to his bedside

But he remained silent looking at her doubtiuily ImdashImdashyou see 1 dont write to her directly he said at length hesitatingly Theres an old friend In New York who acts for me He was silent for some minutes longer then went on desperately

The letter must be written and I suppose itll be best to explain things a little You see when I was laquo boy I had a strong notion for college but

settled with the books I liked to read and had lost ambition to go out into the orld But I didntnsive up the idea altogether I would send someshybody la my place_ So I looked round I had no relative save a little girl whom I used to play with when a boy She had married and gone west I traced her and found that her husshyband was dead and that she was an invalid without means That was something nearer than college so I sent her from time to time what monshyey I had to spare When she died I arranged for her girl to go to college

He paused with his gae upon the coverlet his eyes unobservant dreamy reminiscent

Mary had risen her eyes shining Why didnt you write to her direct

iy she breathed Well she was a college girl you

see with college girl notions I liked to think of her as my girl arid to plan things for her If Id written to her directly itmdashmight have been different You see Im just a man of all work In a factory He held up his hands white and transparent from his illness but still knotty and hard from a lifeshytime of toll I dont know much about girls he went on but I want to think of this one as mine and I cant bear the thought of her evermdash

Mr Farrar do you think any girl could be ashamed of you

The quick passionate cry brought his gaze suddenly from the coverlet What he reau in her voice in her eyes brought a lok of rapt understanding to his face

Then my mind isnt wandering he exclaimed tremulously Its she really and truly Mary bring me that tin box in my desk

She brought it and eagerly he ran his fingers through the contents soon finding a tintype which he opened and held up for her inspection It might have been her own picture so exact was the likeness She recognised H with a low cry

I t s your mother Mary he said softly takes Just before h went west
