FARMERS VICTIMIZED.

Last winter two sharpers went
through Oswego county, New York,
selling IL twenty-five cent package of
potato bug remedy. It's chief recon-
mendation was that it would not
poison children or cattle if they got
hold of it, and the direction was
not to open it until spring, for fear
it might loose its strength. On
opening the packages in the spring
the farmers found that they con-
tanned two sticks, with the follow
ing printed label: "Catch the bugs
and squeeze them between the
sticks. Its sure death" Several
hundred dollars worth were sold.

his arms around her, but he ex-
claimed:
MY darling!"
The report of ths danger of
Fred's condition had been exaerer-
ated, the doctor said. He might
die, but his case was by no means
hopeless.
Ruth had told them why she had
come. Fred was delighted-was
certain that with such dear little
wife as nurse. he would soon get
well. The doctor-jolly old fellow
said it would be just the thing.
Ruth took Fred's hand in hers.
and that quiet minister with the
stout heart commenced the cere-
mony.
BY this time Michael Rand had
arrived, and they heard his coarse
voice inquiring the way to the sick
mans room. At Ruth's request
the doctor-with cunning smile,
too-turned the key in the door.
Soon at the door Michael Rand was
pounding for admittance. The
doctor told him it would be opened
when the marriage ceremony was
completed, whereupon the enraged
man used some very bad language.
He tried to force the door open by
throwing his body against it. 1t
was of good stout oak, and though
the house shook, resisted well.
When Fred Bailey and Ruth
Rand were man and wife beyond
all remedy, they let him in.
Walking straight up to the young
clergyman, and exclaimirg: "You
are the ministerial sneak that did
this" he slapped him in the face.
whereupon the parson promptly
knocked him down.
Fred Bailey did not die. Al
though many years have passed
since that winters day, there is no
happier couple on the globe than
he and Ruth.
Michael Rand still lives. He is
a miserable old man, without IA love
to cling to.

A WOMAN OF WILL.
saturday Night. I

loaturday Night.
Ii you had seen her you would
have thought her a sweet little
woman. Probably you would have
given her credit for nothing but
sweetness. You would haye de
clared her a loyable piece Of lovli-
hess.
She bad such mild blue eyes,
snch a good-patured, dimpled chin,
that the thinness of her lips. indi-
eating frlnness was overlooked.
Her name was Ruth Rand. To
Fred Bailey it was the dearest in all
the world, If you had seen her
sitting with her head on Fred's
shoulder, you would have guessed
that she entertained the same opin-
ion of his name
She had loved him long. She
made no effort to couceal her hap
plness when he told her his heart
secret. As naturally as a river
turns toward the ocean, her love
turned toward his love and gave it
self away,
Fred was thoroughly good fell
low, worthy Of this little woman.
We could say nothing stronger in
praise OF him.
Ruth was just past twenty-one.
Her parents had died when she was
n child Her uncle, Michael Rand,
had been her guardian up to the
time of her maturity. She still
lived with him and submitted TO his
authority. This by force Of habit.
There are some natures whose
freedom from obstinacy is often
mistaken for want of tirmness-
their dislike of conflict for weak
ness. When great occasions arise
they surprise US by their deter
mlnatlon.
Such one was Ruth Rand AL
though she said yes" to Fred with
on reservation, she thought it well
to obtain their uncle's consent to
their union, Fred, being a sensi-
BILE fellow, agreed with her,
Neither of them understood
Michael Rand. Fred knew little Of
him, either good OF bad, and to
Ruth he had always been kind
enough-she had never thwarted
him. ssf
He was . short thick-set man,
had coarse features and a receding
forehead His soul was SO small as
to be hardly worth mentioning. He
knew no law but his own will. In
compronisingly selfish, he would
obtain has end, though he purchased
it with broken hearts.
He had made up his mind that
Ruth shonld marry a certain gen
tleman of his choice-a man, by
the-way, closely resembling himself
i'll all particulars,
So, when Fred Bailey asked him
for Ruth's hand, it was the old story
OF an old head with no sympathy
for young hearts, He not only re-
fused, but ordered Fred ont of the
house, forbidding him to enter it
again.
! This proceeding astonished Ruth {
as much as it did her lover. She
told hlm. however, that they could |
yait-thlt time would soft ED her |

If your sister, while engaged with
her sweetheart. asks you to bring

but you need not return-you won't

/ Uncle.
As he kissed her goodbye, it was
with her promise that, if Michael
Rand did not yield within wear,
she would marry Fred Sin spite Of
all the Grabbed old uncles in the
world"
The next six months was a cam
paign i'll which Fred took 40 part,
for lie saw Ruth bnt seldom. This
campaign WAS generated by her and
uncle. They surprised each other.
Ruth discovered what hard
headed, hard-hearted old sinner
Michael Rand was; he, what a
strong-willed little woman she had
proved to be. He, unimpressible,
had resisted all her powers of per-
suasion; she, bravehearted. had re-
fnsed with scorn the gentleman of
his choice.
Such was the condition of affairs
at the end of six months. The I'M
Gle as obstinate rs ever, the niece as
quietly determined.
1t was winter, and the ground
covered with snow. Ruth Rand sat
AT the window, watching the speed
ing sleighs and listening to the
merry music of their bells. Look
ing mp the road, she saw her uncle
III his handsome sleigh, behind his
fastest horse, coming toward the
house.
For the first time since she was a
child she trembled at the look upon
his face She knew not its cause,
but it was devilish in its wicked tri-
umph, and she feared it. She had
seen it many years before, when he
heard of the death of man who
had stood III his path.
When he stopped before the door
and saw her at the window. he
leered. Without stopping to pnt
up his horse and sleigh, he strobe
into the room, and stood before her
laughing.
1t was not that pleasant laugh
which sends the blood of the lis
tener dancing through his veins, I'M
til in sheer sympathy he echoes it
as loudly.
1t was such a laugh as i'll becomes
a man to have upon his face, or
sounding from his lips-uglier than
IA sheer, more terrible than a threat
The base nature of this man stood |
revealed before her in all its black
ness, as he said, chuckling:
My obstinate Ruth, you will |
never marry Fred Bailey, for he is
dying"
There was no effort to soften the .
blow-there was no pity for her in
his heart.
Oh, little Ruth, bear up; be not
weak before this monster.
"a friend was showing him re-
volyer." he went on, ''and by its ac-
cident.l discharge Fred Bailey was
wounded It's all up with him.
He's made his last love speech
\ pleasant fellow, this Michael
Band.
With scorn of him that redden-
ID her face and quivered her voice,
she asked;
w here Is he now"
a good five miles away, my dear
in Langdon house, ON Black
Hill,
Without us much as another
lance at him, Ruth left the room,
nut III Il moment was back aUaiu.

ana seated herself In the sleigh, be-
fore he understood her intention
Quickly following her. just as she
was about to start he seized the
horses bride.
"What as you going to do?" he
e ,ked.
4 am going to see Fred" she
answered quietly.
"What then?"
Il am going to marry him. Ii
he dies. it shall be as my husband. >
| He frightened his grip upon the
bride as he exclaimed:
You shall not"
All disguise WAS useless. They
looked into each others eyes-a de-
! termined woman against an obsti-
nate. INSCRIPTIONS man.
Let sol" she said, menacingly,
but he needed not.
She spoke to the horse. but her
uncle's hold made it useless.
She took the whip from its stock.
Thoroughly reused now, and as
desperate as he was, she exclaimed:
Il say again, let go!"
He only laughed. Up in the air
went the whip-down again upon
the hand that held the bride, leav-
ing livid welt.
With an oath, Michael Rand
sprung back, and, as the horse
started, Ruth looked behind her,
and saw her uncle shaking his fist
at her III impotent rage,
She drove for couple of miles
at break-neck speed. At that dis
lance from her home there lived II
young minister, good friend of
both Fred and herself.
That young clergyman had never
been hurried OCT OF his house and
into IA vehicle III such quick time
before; but it seemed an age to
Ruth. She did not even. give him
time to listen to an explanation of
her strange conduct.
Not until they We're in the sleigh,
and flying along over the snow, did
he understand the situation; then
he was the right man in the right
place. He WAS no timid fellow,
this country parson. He didn't care
the snap of his finger for Michael
Rand's wrath.
Ruth, he said, I'll marry you
to Fred Bailey, in spite of II thou
sand uncles!"
twas a straight road upon which
they We're travelling. They looked
behind them. Ruth saw her uncle !
following.
He had borrowed sleigh. His
legal authority over her was ended; /
but she knew that in his despera- I
ton he would dare anything to pre-
vent the marriage.
Ruth breathed a great sigh of re-
lief when, on arriving Mt LaDGdon's
house, she saw that her uncle was
far behind.
As she entered the house where
Fred lay, for the first time weak
ness came upon her. Now that
much of the excitement of the past
half hour was gone, she was face to
face with her sorrow She had
Lriumphed for the moment, but
could not save her dying
over.
She trembled rs she opened the
