A maiden was accustomed to spin late
on Saturday in the moonlight. At one

day drew her up to itself and now she
sits in the moon and spins and spins.
And now, when the "gossamer days"
set in late in the summer the white
threads float around in the air. These
| threads are the spinning of the lunar

The moon is especially ghostly
avenger of human arrogance, and has
its humors, according to which things

it has special force and a certain

FROM the Herald Of Faith, st. Louis. Mis-

Referring to Shailenberger's Antidote
for Malaria, the business manager of the
Herald of Faith would say, that he gave this
medicine personal trial, and was speedily
cured of an unpleasant Intermittent Fever.
He then recommended 1T TO +. j. Tiefen-
braun, 1915 Papin street. and to police officer
Meidenger, at the Union Depot, both of
whom were cured by it of chills and fever
of several years standing. Recently his
wife, after a fever of several days dura-
ton, took single dose and was perfectly
cured. In view of these remarkable cures,
and remembering HOY; much money is spent
for Quinine, SO little to be depended upon.
and often so injurious, we can only wish
that Shallenberger's Antidote would come
into general use.

Not Enough Wheat in Dakota.

ABERDEEN. Oak, March 3.-Terrtorial
StatIstlclan Sheridan says there is not
enough wheat in Dakota for seed and
bread. There are now but 5000 0O0 BUSH
els in the Territory in farmers hands and
in elevators, and it will require at least
IL, 009. 900 to seed and bread this Territory.
This viii make shortage OF 5000, 900 in
round numbers of the necessary amount
10 tide over the farmer until the next crop.
While Central or Southern Dakota have 80
or GO per cent. of the 1SsS wheat crop on
hand, the northern and northwestern
counties have but from to 10 per cent. Of
the crop. The wheat in the central and
southern counties weighed from forty.
eight to sixty-two pounds per bushel,
while in the frosted belt" or northern
counties, it weighed only from tnirty-two
TO forty-two pounds. The shortage of
wheat in the Territory was attributed to
drought in Central and South Dakota and
early frosts in North Dakota.

The Golden Apple.

The ounce, which is not generally re.
garded as fruit of very precious or ele-
CANT character, is nevertheless one pos
sessing more uses than most of the fruits
of its family. In cookery it is exceeding
ly piquant when simply baked in an
oven and sprinkled with sugar; it makes
a delicious preserve, fine marmalade
and jelly of great delicacy, highly
valued in throat troubles. Its cores and
seeds have been found to be agreeable
eating even after long drying, and they
are full of mucilaginous substance,
which, owing to it's demulcent nature, is
valuable in bronchial troubles and
coughs, which diluted is used in various
eye washes, and which is largely com
pounded in what is called bandoline
lately as popular dressing for the hair
as the perfumed pomades were once.
Meanwhile the beauty afforded us by the
ounce is especially remarkable; in spring
the bush of the fruit producing kind be-
ing covered with large petaled blossoms
of an exquisite pale pink and most
delicate perfume, and the bush of the
species whose fruit is not used bearing
blossoms of flaming scarlet, which
gives it great value as an ornamental
shrub; while in autumn the great spheres
of downy gold seem fairly to steam with
a spicy fragrance of indescribable rich
ness. The ounce is a southern growth,
found wild in Africa and Asia, and it is
celebrated throughout Oriental litera-
ture. No list of delectable fruits is COM
plete without it there, and its aroma fills
the pages of the Arabian Nights, while
in classic affairs it has as many advo-
Gates as the orange in claiming to be the
golden apple of the Hesperides.-Ha

C06eo Planting In Cuba,

can imagine nothing more delightful
for an American capitalist than the
ownership and management of coffee
plantation in Cuba He could spend his
winters there, in the climate of Italy, sur
rounded by magnificent scenery, with
vegetation full of tropic splendor, and
plenty of game, deer, wild pig, fowl and
fish for the sportsman. Even American
fruits and vegetables thrive there, and
with small outlay all the comforts of
your homes could be transferred to the
mountain plantations. The American
who should go there to pass his winters
would not lack for agreeable society.
The remaining descendants Of the old
French planters, who still live on the
estates they have been able to retain, are
hospitable and generous, and generally
we'll educated and refined. Besides, this
sort of winter resorting can be made to
pay handsome profits. A plantation that
will produce a crop of coffee and cacao
worth in market $40, 900, the cost Of pro-
duction being no more than $4,000 or
$4,000, can be purchased for $25, 900 or
100000 The risks of such an invest
ment are small. Droughts need not be
feared and labor is cheap and plentiful

Some of Dickens Characters,

A contributor to the London Literary
World claims to have identified a mum.
Der of Dickens characters In real life.
He says that Smike is still living in Bury
st. Edmunds, where he keeps toy shop,
and he describes him as tall, Ratchet
faced old gentleman, proud of his ro-
mantle eminence Carker, he asserts,
was connected, through his father, with
an eminent engineering firm, and lived
in Oxford road, where he prowled about,
a nuisance to all the servant girls in the
neighborhood. He, Major Bagstock,
Mrs. Skewton, whose real name was
Campbell, and her daughter, were well
known characters in bennington. Some
fifty years ago, he says, the Shannon
coach, running between Ipswich and
London, was driven by big, burly old
fellow named Cole, who was the verita-
BILE elder Weller. He does not, how

al the hills in Bangor, for this is
true story, and happened years ago in
that eastern city, this was the one most
coveted by the coasters, and the only
one solely tabooed to them.
The long gradual descent ended at the
river, frozen now smooth as marble, and
it was poor sled that stopped short of
the middle of it. o boysl think of it, a
swift ride Of nearly half mile with no
obstruction. The wind might cut like a
knife where the skin was exposed, and
there was the long tug up the hill; but
what did they care, when they could
have the glorious coast down again? Be
sides it was forbidden ground. and that
made it the more inviting.
John had some crude idea in his head
ahout law and order, and what he would
DO ifrhe was tho mayor or an alderman,
but he'Nmeant to have one slide down
that hillN%hether or no; after that, no
matter.
1t did not take, many minutes to get
started, John steehiQg and holding the
stout new rope in /Soth hands, while Tom
behind held fast to Johq, and away they
went, their eyes shining Nike stars.
When half way down 1AIhey discerned
large seettyI track of the
swift 1!Shing 81 They could
-netNstop, and each gave . loud halloo to
warn the person to move, but he seemed
to Outstanding there for purpose. The
dreadful marshal, with feet far apart
and hands outstretched. stood ready to
seize the sled.
Don't he know we can't stop?- said
Tom. "We shall knock MIN down"
But John said not word. He might
lose his sled, but he would do what he
could to prevent it. Hesteered directly
between the mans legs, and as the latter
reached down and grasped the rope, ex-
claiming, Give got ye," the boy took
him in his lap, and the sled flew on with
accelerated speed. Who was the pris-
oner, after all? A bright thought flashed
into Toms mind. He whipped out his
knife and quietly cut the rope on each
side, holding it in such a way that the
marshal should not suspect the trick.
John saw and took the hint, and as
they glided out on the level surface Of
the river, it was the work of an instant
to send the heavy man sprawling on the
ice, while the boys with the sled between
them ran as if shod with the seven league
boots.
There was huge log frozen into the
ice, and dropping behind it and looking
back, the sight which met their eyes con-
vulsed them with laughter. The marshal
had quickly picked himself up, and stood
grasping the rope in both hands and gaz-
ing around with bewildered look on his
face, which changed to wrath as he re-
allied the situation. They could see him
distinctly in the bright moonlight, and
they rolled over and over on the ice, try
ing to stihe their laughter at the comical
sight. Well did they know ii was their
last coast on that hill but that one was
enough to make them laugh as long as
they lived.-Lewiston Journal

be a profound secret and mystery to ev-
erybody. A solemn consideration, when
