AN ALBANIAN ROMANCE.
The Sad story ola Girl Captiyated nv a
Handsome Marksman.

| 'V"C
During visit to Albania, one Of
the small independent Balkan states
saw some remarkable deeds az
craftsmanship and heard STRANGE
story regarding the skill Of the Al
banians, says Olive Harper in the
Philadelphia Press.
There was a young man of some
"A or - who was not only remark
ably handsome among all these hand
some men, but was one of the most
expert marksman they had. He FIN
ally was persuaded to visit some
cities to show his skill, and with him
he had a young man who used to as
sist him by holding different objects
tor the other to shoot at. They fin
ally reached this place after a very
successful tour, and as he was about
TO give an exhibition at his own birth
place OF his powers, his helper was
helplessly intoxicated.
Among the disappointed audience
was a slender and pretty young girl
of 10 who had loved .ais young man
IN secret ever since she could re-
member. He offered 500 drachms
tor a volunteer, man or woman, who
would take his mans place, and this
young girl stepped out and up to the
platform. lie accepted her and she
stood without moving or hinching
while the balls almost grazed the
delicate flesh on their way where he
sent them.
Her courage captiyated him and
they were married and together they
visited many countries and in France
made a great Juror They had been
married two years, and he had per-
haps grown weary OF such utter de-
votlon, or he was dazzled by NO
man OF rank in France, and he ne
elected his poor little wife, and every
night this temptress sat in box and
watched the handsome Albanian who
looked up to her for approval after
each feat.
These Albanian women have little
mind and no education, and they live
only on their love, and when that is
wrecked they have nothing to fall
back on and they die. That was all
she could do, and lite was not worth
the living without his love. So she
wrote a poor little misspelled letter,
telling him she was broken hearted
and was going to die, so that he
could be happy with that beautiful
woman who loved him and whom he
loved, that she did not blame him in
the least, she was only sorry, and
that she was but young and could
not die unless she died by violence.
and so, not to have the sin OF suicide
on her soul, she was going to lot him
kill her that night She would wei
come death from his hand.
And that evening at the perform
ance, as she held rose by short
stem, she waited until too late for
him TO save her and threw herself
forward, receiving the ball in her
brain, and smiling at him as she
died. They found the poor little
note, and he took the dead body of
his wife home to her native hills, and
she lies in the sunshine on the slope
near the lake she loved in youth.
His career was closed. lie is now
quite gray, and shuns all gay com
pany, and has never touched gun
since that night in Paris.

WHAT'S THE GOOD OF lMMIGRA.

1t is good tor the land proprietor
for it enables him to dispose of hi,
surplus acres,
1t is good for the general merchant,
for it will afford him opportunities to
sell more goods.
1t is good for the lumber dealer,
for it will be the means of disposing
of his building material.
1t is good tor the hardware man,
for he will sell more machinery.
1t is good for the miller, because
he will have more grain to grind and
more flour and meal to sell.
1t is good for the mason and car
pepter, for they will have. all the
work they can do
1t is good for the blacksmith and
wheelright, for their shops will be
crowded.
1t is good for the furniture dealer,
tor all neeo supplies in his line,
1t Is good for the bankers, for they
will all have money transactions.
1t is good for the postmaster, for it
will increase his salary.
1t is good for the doctors, for it is
not supposed that they will all be
blessed with the same robust health
that the people here are.
1t is good for the lawyers, for by
and by they may have legal business
to transact.
1t is good tor the farmers, for they
will be OF mutual aid and assistance
to each other.
1t is good for the surveyors, for
boundary lines will be sharply de-
fined.
The more land in cultivation, the
more regular the seasons. The more
crops produced the better the mark
ct.
1t is good for the newspapers, for
the more patronage they have the
more pride they will feel and the
harder they will labor for the good
of the country.
1t is good for us all, for it will re-
duce the taxes. There is only so
much money required to run the
state and county governments any
way, ami the greater the number to
pay the tax the less each one will
have to pay.
If we had four times our present
population it would cost but little
more to run the county than it does
now, and we would have little more
than one-fourth the present tax to
pay.
The fact is, immigration of the
right kind will be benefit to us and
10 them, 1t will give them good
health, good society and good schools
and they will add to the number of
good citizens, for be it known that
we shall welcome neither paupers
nor idlers nor men depending on the
people already here for a living, but
the right hand of fellowship is ex-
tended to all who are able to buy
and improve their lands, stock them
and lay the sure foundation of pros
porous career.
We are not inviting men who are
not able to take care of themselves.
We want large numbers, it is true,
but we consider quality.
This is a splendid country, but it
requires some capital here as we'll as
elsewhere to make a start IN this
world. For those who possess it, it
is good country; for those who
have nothing, it is good that they
stay away from here, unless they are
willing TO work hard for start.

THE ADVANTAGES OF REST.

Nineteenth Century.
There is no better preventive of
nervous exhaustious than regular,
unhurried, muscular exercise. If we
could moderate our hurry, lessen our
worry and increase our open air ex-
ercise, large proportion Of nervous
diseases would be abolished. For
those who cannot get "A sufficient hol-
iday the best substitute is an occa-
sional day in bed. Many whose
nerves are constantly strained ia
their daily avocation have discover
ed this for themselves. A Spanish
merchant in Barcelona told his med
ical men that he always went to bed
tor two or three days whenever he
could be spared from his business,
and he laughed at those who spent
holidays on toilsome mountains. One
Of the hardest worked women in
England, who has for many years
conducted large wholesale BUSH
ness, retains excellent nerves at an
advanced age, owing, it is believed,
to her habit of taking one day week
in bed. If we cannot avoid frequent
agitation we ought, if possible, to
give the nervous system time to
recover itself between the shocks.
Even an hours seclusion after good
lunch will deprive a hurried, anx-
ious day Of much of its injury. The
nerves can often be overcome by
stratagem when they refuse to be
controlled by strength of will.
