TAKEN By siege.

she said, blushing, and did hope he could
go with them. John pulled out his
watch, and, with an expression Of genu-
inc annoyance on his handsome face,
said that it was just his hard luck; if he
had only known Of their coming in time
he could have arranged the matter, but
as it was there was no help for it, There
was an important meeting at the Mutual
Dividend office at noon that would prob
ably last all day. There would, how
ever. be recess for lunch, and at half
past he could join them at Delmonico's
and bring Rush with him. 1t would be
a real old fashioned family gathering
In the mean time he would put them in a
carriage and instruct the driver care
fully. so they need have no fear Of get
ting lost. and he would join them pune
tually at half past 1.
Amy was disappointed, but she bore
her disappointment bravely. She felt
sure that John would have gone with
them had it been possible. He had got
to be such a man Of business now; and
he really had the worried look Of q man
who Is bothered by his affairs. He
looked well, though, in many ways. He
was stouter than when he left Farmsted.
and his complexion was ruddier; but she
didn't quite like the expression Of his
eyes. 1t was restless and not at all hap
py. He seemed to be in the best Of
spirits, however, and his manner was
about the same. He had not kissed her
when she came in, but he kissed her as
be led her down stairs, and she was sat-
is1ed. So Amy and her mother went
to buy the trousseau, and John went
down to che Office Of The Dawn to see il
he could find Rush. He was not there,
he was of on his detective work; but, as
luck would have it, John met him just
turning into Fourth street, and captured
him for the lunch.
They were merry party at belmont
cos Amy was delighted to be with
John once more, John was delighted to
have Rush along to make the converse
ton general, and Rush was delighted to
see that all was well between John and
Amy. Once he turned the conversation
towards the opera, for he was thinking of
Helen; but John turned it in another d.
rection, for he was thinking Of Leoni.
The lunch party was success, and
when it broke up John asked Rush to put
the ladies on the train. as he had to re-
turn to that tiresome directors meeting.
So he shook hands with Amy and Mrs.
Bayliss. and left them in Rush's care,
congratulating himself upon the way
everything had passed of. He really cid
have business at the Mutual Dividend Of
fee, and Mortimer was cursing him at
that very moment for being away. He
hurried back, and the two were locked
up until after midnight in the private Of
flee. long after Amy Bayliss had fallen
asleep, though the excitement Of the day
kept her awake unusually late, and long
after Leoni had thrown her tired body
on her little couch to rest and dream OF
her husband.

Studying American Farming.

Dr. Martin Wilckens, professor in the Agri-
cultural College at Vienna. has just reached
Chicago. after six weeks tour in Iowa and
Minnesota and a short visit to Denver lie is
gathering material on all subjects connected
with agriculture and will make a formal chart
and volume on his impressions of Americas
agriculture. He is making a thorough study
of cattle raising, dairy products, food culture
and agriculture colleges on behalf of the
Austrian government. OF these latter he
says
''rhey are not near what expected to find.
Everywhere hear of agricultural and mechan-
ical colleges, and nearly always when | 20 to
look into their operations find the agricultural
department so subsidiary as to be almost value
less. In one agricultural college in Iowa
found that out of 250 pupils only 2l were tax
ing the agricultural course
DR.. Wilckens also spent some time in the
Blue Grass regions. Kentucky horses, he
says, are undoubtedly the best trotters in the
world. 81 have heard the claim disputed by
admirers of Tartar and Russian horses" he
said. "but after examining the horses saw in
the Blue Grass region | insist that they lead
the world. European countries can produce
the best draught horses, but America leads us
in tf0tters.N

WHAT lii SAYS ON AZ IMPORTANT SI'IJECT.
several days ago We published a letter from
"ENperience," upon subject which is attracting
considerable attention anil We have since received
similar communication from another, which We
publish in full;
10 ruE EnIroR-A short time ago noticed in
your columns letter signed "ENrercncc' which
attracted my attention since it contained comments
upon Il subject which is of general importance. At
iir9t was Inclined to regard the lcttei referred to
ii clever advertising scheme of Messrs. IL. III.
Warner Co, to attract notice to their Wcll-knoWn
Warmers safe Cure, which is, il must be admitted,
of the greatest value and merit, but upon more
mature consideration am inclined to believe that
the letter is a genuine expression from wein-
formed indfvdual who IS not afraid to graphic
with question which should receive greater atten-
ton.
1t is daily becoming more apparent that there is
something radically wrong in the manner i'll which
disease is being treated iy those whose profession
ii is to heal the sick. a man is taken i'll, and a
physician Is called in. "only Il slight nervous dis
ORDER remarks the physician The slight nervous
disorder however refuses to be controlled, and n
4 short time the physician ominously remarks that
the patient is sunerx% from consumption. Things
go on for n while Unit the patient is afflicted with
what the physician calls "a series of complicated
disorders" Treated for first one thing and then
another-losed with all sorts of vile concoctions-
the patient finally sucCumbs, and then for the first
time it is learned that the real cause OF suffering
and death was disease of the kidneys, which mani
Tested itself in various other disorders-all Of
which could have been promptly cured had time
ly use been made of Warmers safe Cure, which is
the most important discovery made in connection
with scientific progress in recent years. The ref
ercnce made by "ENpcricnce" to the Robinson
poisoning cases, where no less than seven members
@ family died within five years from the
effects of arscncal poisoning without attracting
the attention of skilled physicians, who were in at
tendance, to the real cause, but who issued death
certificates for pneumonia, typhoid fever, bowel
disease etc, is Il startling disclosure of the gnor-
ancc which prevails among those whose duty it is
to definitely detect and treat the true cause of
disease.
| quite agree with "ENpercnce" in the opinion
that after all, those who take matters of health in
their own hands and place their reliance upon Il
welLknown remedy which is time tested and known
to be of benefit are better on than those who trust
themselves in experimental and ignorant hands.

The Late Hon. Hiram Ruggles.

The death of Mr.. Ruggles in Bangor on the
18Th inst. was announced last week. We take
the following obituary notice from the Com
nercial: Mr.. Ruggles was born in Carmel,
October l4th. 1873. and was therefore nearly
,6 Years OF age. His father was the first b ap-
tlst minister to deliver a sermon in Bangor and
was prominent IN this county in its earlier
days. Hiram Rugges received his education
i'll the common schools and remained upon the
farm where he was born until he was forty
years of aye when he Sold out and moved to
Carmel village, where he was a merchant and
lumDermen, and soon owned, either wholly or
partially, every mill N the town. He continued
in business until 1887 when he retired with Il
moderate fortune and few years afterwards
moved to this city, where he has since lived.
Mr.. Ruggles' ability was manifested early in
life and when but tWenty-three years old he
was Chairman of the Board of Seectmcn in
Carmel and from that time until he left the
town he was always more or less occupied with
town business. From 1S50-53 he was County
Commissioner of this county and in the latter
year he was sent TO the State Senate from the
Ninth District, serving two full terms. Pre-
vious to that time, in 1916, he had represented
Carmel and llampden in the State Legislature.
Commencing in 1868 he served four Years in
the Executive council of Maine, one with Gov
ernor Coburn, two with Governor Cony and
one with Governor Chamberlain. For some
years he was postmaster at Carmel. In 1852
he was Deputy Assessor OF this Internal Rev
enue District and in 1863 he was appointed
Collector. Mr.. Ruggles was also member of
the Commission on the Assumption by the
state of the Municipal War Debts. He had
the honor in the State Senate in 1871, of cast
ing the decisive vote which made Hon. .'Wm. F.
Fessenden United States senator. lie has
been prominent in the counsclS of the Metho-
dist church in this state since 1888 and was
long Treasurer of the East Maine Conference
Seminary at Bucksport and President of the
Northport Camp Ground Association. lie
gave large sums to the seminary aud also to
Wesleyan University. Mr.. RuggIes was quite
a prominent Mason, being prominent mem
Der of Mount Moriah Royal Arch Chapter in
this city. He was married in 1888 and Mrs.
Ruggles survives him. They had son and a
daughter, both of whom are dead. The son,
Gardiner ii. Ruggles, was killed in the army,
being one of the bravest and most brilliant
officers whom Penobscot county sent to the
war.
