With the foregoing explanation
the study of these figures will readi-
ly give consumers knowledge of
the comparative value of the differ
ent brands. To illustrate with the
percentages given the two powders
before compared: the Royal contain

in Prices, its excess of strength is
l in 10.5, or 12.4 per cent. Royal is
therefore 1874 per cent. stronger, as
well as II per cent. purer than
Prices, etc. The relative strength
and purity of all the powders can be
computed in like manner.

Rather remote, Capt. Hamilton; remote
enough for friendshipm
II don't know ii he ever spoke to you of
me" She moved her head in negation.
I'VE got acquainted at the club, you know,
and have seen great deal of each other
What wanted to say was this: A common
friend of ours, with whom l dined last
night, deputed me to invite Cunlitfe TO join
sleighing party this morning to drive to
his home up at New Rochelle and take dim
ner. ISsaw Cunliffe at the club later on,
and gave him the invitation, and he said
he'd go. We were TO meet at the club this
morning at 10 o'clock. | was there, but he
didn't come. After while one of the fell
lows said he'd met him i'll the street, and
that he had told him he was going out of
town"
At this point the Captain paused for
breath, and to think of what he should say
next. Miss Give looked politely interested
and said:
WHAT did you dor
"Wen, came here" the CAPTAIN re-
piled, feeling trifie awkward. II thought
you might give me an idea where he had
gone"
Pm afraid can't" she returned, smil-
ing. But I'll tell you where you might
perhaps find out"
Il shall be much obliged"
"Y GU might ask at his lodgings"
"Ah-yes- well, the fact is, went there
first. and they could tell me nothing. Then
| recollected his having spoken of you as
his cousin, or something of that kind, aud
as didn't know where else to go"
81 understand I'm ,rry can't help you
1t occurs to me, though"
She paused, and looked at the Captain
with a very bright glance.
'YesF' he sad.
II was thinking that perhaps he had mis-
taken about the sleigh ride, aud was going
to take the train up to New Rochelle
ooh, it couldn't be that, you know" said
the Captain, hastily.
ut was only an idea that struck me.
You said YOU didn't know where he was
going, except that he was going out of
town; and that seemed to me the most
natural place, under the circumstances, for
him to go"
This woman's cleverer than she ought
to be-" said the Captain to himself. Il
shouldn't wonder if she did know some
thing about it after all" Aloud he said
I'm afraid I've troubled you to no pur-
pose
"You have not troubled me at all 1t is
too bad of my cousin to have kept you
waiting. Has the rest of the party
startedm
"Well-that is, yes-they must have
started some time ago. Ten O'clock you
know"
ION! then how will you get theree VIII
you go by train"
NO; it was the sleigh ride we were going
for" returned the Captain, beginning t.
wish that he had invented some more man
ageable story for the occasion. The din
ner without the sleigh ride, wouldn't be
worth the trouble I'll stay at home"
"You are English, are you nots" inquired
Kitty.

CHAPTER XIV.


1t was Cunliffe's habit to appear at the
club about 10 o'clock every morning, hav-
ing taken his breakfast of coffee and eggs
in his rooms. Like a confirmed club man,
his movements gradually became SO adj
iusted to one another that any one familiar
with him could have predicted where he
could be found morning, noon and night.
Men of idle lives, who live in one place, are
more apt to'be regular in this way than men
of affairs, though the springs that control
them are so different.
Capt. Hamilton, therefore, when he
sauntered into the smoking room at 1890,
and having summoned the waiter by q
touch upon the electric bell-knob, had or
dered a cigar and sherry-soda-the Cap
tain, say, was SO assured that Cunliffe was
sitting in the second window from the door
reading the papers, that it was several mo-
ments before he turned in that direction to
exchange passing salute with him. When
he did so, he saw only vacant chair. Gun
life had not yet arrived.
The Captain, after casting an exploring
glance round the room to discover whether
his Young friend had perchance emigrated
70 some other quarter, seated himself IN the
vacant chair as locum tenens, and when the
waiter came with the soda and cigars, he
asked him, as he struck a match, whether
Mr. Cunliffe were not late that morning.
eS, SIT, feplleu lne uiah, ~ - al un-
usual thing for Mr.. Cunlife, too. He'd
ought to have been here half an hour age"
The Captain made up his mind that he
had oversight himself, as even the idlest
Young men about town sometimes will, aud
re.igned himself TO wait for him De had
been tnrning over in his mind the consulta-
ton with the Inspector of the day previ-
Gus, and had come to the conclusion that it
could do no harm to at least propose little
trlp to Cunliffe, and see how he received the
proposition. II he rejected it, without Civ
Ing any satisfactory reasons. it would be a
point against him, though not, OF course, a
conclusive one If he accepted 1t readily
and without embarrassment, the captain
could use his own Judgment as to going Or
raising some obstacle at the last moment

4 New Political Feature.

chicago MAIL.
There is coming to the trout in Indiana this
year a new force in the politics of that State, a
potent force, and one that will be exerted in
favor OF the Republican party. IL is the force
prophesied by Logan. It is the mass of young
men now voting for the first tns. 10 1866
hurdreds OF thousands Of Northern soldiers re-
turned TO their homes. Postponed marriages
took place. Families were reunited. In 1S67-6S
thousands of children were born These were
the children OF Union soldiers. The sons among
them were destined TO grow up Republicans
They could not be otherwise than Republicans
in the very nature OF things.
The child OF the returned soldier next week
casts bis frat ballot for President of the United
States. The child is numerous all over the
country. and in Indiana he exists in large mum
bers. IN one county alone in that State there
have been sent in for publication in the local
newspaper the names OF SIP young men now
about to cast their first presidential vote and all
of whom will vote for Harrison and Morton
What q commentary is this upon the Democrats
party. And what good promise il gives for the
future of the republic.
That they are Republicans is q credit TO the
sons Of soldiers now about to vote That there
are so many Of these sons is q credit TO the vet

Levi Z, Morton.

NEW 1Ork fIoSs.
From the day Of bis nomination until now,
when the close of the campaign is at hand, Levi
=. Morton has steadily grown in the confidence
and affection Of the people. The glare Of light
in which a candidate for q great Office must
stand has revealed nothing to his discredit, but.
on the other hand, has shown q combination OF
national traits which mark him out for typi-
cal American.
He started ia life as poor boy and has earned
prosperity. His love of honesty is such that,
having once failed in business, he sfterward
paid his creditors in full when no legal claim
existed. He is ono of those generous Rivers
who literally do not let their left hands know
what their right hands do. When ireland was
starving he voluntarily paid for one-fourth of
o ships cargo OF provisions to be sent there.
and did it SO secretly that but for chance he
would never have been known in the transac-
ton.
The virtues Of his private life have been N an
ifested in his public career. When Congress-
man, and ambassador to France, he was as able,
energetic and faithful to duty as when he was
Greeting the affairs of his business He is q
tried man who has never been found wanting.
He is a candidate for whom every American can
safely vote in full assurance OF his fidelity and
capacity.

NO SUCH WORD AS FAIL.
Indiana Republicans Ready to Garry Out the
Promises Made at Chicago.

PronllSes M6ue at SnIc3SO.
Chicago Inter Ocean.
The Indiana Republicans are good fighters
probably tho best in the country. They held a
very enthusiastic convention at indianapolis
early in December last Immediately after the
Issue OF Cleveands message. They sounded
the note Of enthusiasm, and gave an inspiration
to the whole country at that time. Pursuing
the even but determined tenor Of their way.
they succeeded 10 nominating General Harrison
and are going to do their part in electing him.
The reports coming in from all parts OF the
State are of the most encouraging character. In
one precinct alone 10 the southern section of the
State gain of l95 is reported. And so it is in
every nook and corner of the State. Reports Of
gains everywhere. and no disaffectiops. Over
1000 clubs have been organized and doing
effective work Not long ago a circular letter
wis sent to the presidents of these clubs for the
purpose of arcertsining the number of Demo
Gratis In them who had voted for Cleveland in
1884. The returns showed that they averaged
about seven each club this, of itself, would
indicate a gain OF over 1000 votes. The colored
vote is almost solid. Four-fftbs of the old
soldiers, and there are rs. 600 in Indiana, will
vote for Harrison and Morton. T5ree-ifths OF
the fret voters are with us. AS to the Irish. il
may be safely said that the Republican ticket
wilhave at least 3. 600 votes from them. Some
of the prominent Irish Republicans in Indiana
polls say there will be 900 Irish voters for Ben
Harrison in Marion county alone. With such
cheering information, with an enthusiasm
never witnessed before, with crowds numbering
way up in the thousands attending the meetings
of Republican speakers, there is, this year, no
such word for Indiana Republicans as fail.
