 But when Katie Playfar came back in May, with checks as pink as the mountain daisies themselves, and Miss Thorburn broached her ideas, the elder sister refused the offer with many thanks.
 II couldn't spare Pearl," said she. "I-I am going to settle on farm in Orange county-the great butter making region, you know, and l want Pearl to enjoy the butter cups and roses and young lambs with me-
 "Golng to settle, eh?" said Miss ThOrburn. "Oh, if that's the case, l make no further objection!"
 'Yes," sad Katie, blushing charm ingly. 'Mr. Vail has a contract as carpenter to railway repair shop there, and Pearl and are to live al- ways in the beautiful country"
 'Well, my dear" said good Miss Thorburn, II hope you'll be very happy. And mind, you're to take no thought of the wedding bonnet. I'm going to make you present of one, all trimmed with white lilacs." " - Helen Forest Graves.

UNFORCoTTEN.

Ont of the silence hear 1t still, A voice that is tender soft and low, And fl sets the chords of my heart atlrl, With the cherished music of long ago. Ont of the distance see face, A shadowy semblance, frail and fair, And mark the curve of the lips, softly grace, The calm, pure brow, and the, clustering hnir And feel the clasp of baud so dear, None other was ever warm in mine; And see the eyes that are shining clear With a light half human, and half divine. Out of the somewere--I feel, know This presence will finger when youth is done When my laggng steps have grown worn and slow,
 And the sands of my life have outward run. For time may soacv and comfort bring, And the heart with worldly hopes bear high; But the oldcn memories will round me cling, For the essence of love can never die.

A RETRosPEcTION.

Inc result Of MT. Benjamin IIarri- sons administration thus far is rath- CT striking.
 He had not been ir the office two months before Spells Boss was in- augurated in every congressional dis trict in the country, and before the country was full of the scandal of the sale of officers for cash.
 He opened Oklahoma in such a way as to let his thieving officials and their friends got the best of everything in sight, and he kept these plunderers in the land office long after their guilt had. been de- nounced ever by members of his Cabinet.
 He found an overflowing Treasury He emitted the Treasury and made occasion for a deficit even though he and his supporters had in the mean time made an outrageous increase in taxes.
 He found the country united, peaceful and prosperous. He has kept it for months on the verge of panic.
 He found "a boom in Western and Southern lands. He has seen the West paralyzed under his ''poli- cy' and he is straining every nerve to paralyze the South.
 He found the Pension Office ably and honestly administrated. He displaced this administration with Tanner only to displace Tanner with Raum, whose reputation has become a rocking stench in the nos- trils of the people.
 He found men abroad who upheld the honor of the country. He sent aboard man of his personal follow ing, who used the power and author- ty of the United States to assist kidnapping party in boarding an American vessel and killing it's pas senger on it's deck under the flag.
 He found the Indians peaceful and contented under trained agents, missionaries and teachers. He is spending millions .of the money of the taxpayers in exterminatlng them, because they danced religious dance on short rations.
 He found law providing for sil- yer coinage. He substituted for it a measure of silver demonetzation framed to enable ring of specula- tors to rob the Treasury through q government corner of demonetized silver billion.
 And, finally, he found the Repub- lican party stronger than 1t had been in twenty years, with a plurality in every State of the East and West except New Jersey and Connecti- cut. After two years of his policy it is weaker than it has ever been, with hardly plurality in any State of the Union on the face of the re- turns.
 All this and great deal more like it in less than two years of the ad- ministration of the man made Presi- dent of the United States by the Quay Fat Fund and the Dudly Blocks of Five lSt. Louis Republic.

It takes business man to de- scribe costume to his wife. A busy son of commerce, after seeing very taking dress on very taking shop per recently, informed the partner of his joys that ''it was fine. The dress was made of some kind of cloth, with some sort of trimming. It was sorter lilac or shrimp pink in color, and had for a waist some kind of a basque that was indescribable. She wore one of those hats you some- times see on women, and altogether gave an effect that wish you could have seen."

What Energy has Done.

Twenty-Five years ago few young in London resolved to meet every evening to exchange ideas. The number gradually increased till it was necessary to hire room. Crow ing ambitious, they hired lecturers, and many people were brought to- gether. Many of them now trace their success to this effort to gain knowledge.
 1ndefatigable industry, coupled with the desire for knowledge, pro- duces great results. Walter Scott, when he was in lawyers office, spent his evenings in study. John Britton, the author of architectural works, said: ''I studied my books in bed on winter evenings, because too poor to afford a fire." He used every opportunity to read; the books he picked up for few mo- ments at the bookstalls helped him, he says. Napoleon had indomitable perseverance, and energy. Dr. Liv- ington, at the age of ten years, working in a factory, bought with his first wages, Latin grammar, and studied it until l2 at night. He studied Virgil and Horace the same way, finally entered college and graduated.
 Many will ask how they can ad- vance themselves in knowlege. The first thing is determination; the next, perseverance. Walter Scott gave this advance to n young man : Do instantly whatever IS to be done, and take the hours of recrea- tion after business; never before it. " Business men often say: "Iime is money" But it is more than that to the young man. If used rightly, it is self-improvement, culture, strength and growth of character. The habit of idleness is hard one to get rid of. The habit of reading anything and everything is weaken ing to the mind. Books chosen and read with care cultivate the mind and character. The books you read should ralsc your thoughts and as pirations, strengthen your energy and help you in your work. Thack. cry says: "Try to frequent the company of your betters. In books and in life frequent that which is the most wholesome society; learn to admire rightly. Note what grea, men have admired; they admire great things; narrow spirits admire basely and worship meanly. FIX.

An Arkansas Republican on his
 Party.

w. Jasper Blackburn, editor of the Little Rock Republican, has de- cided to discontinue his paper, now the only Republican paper in Arkan- sas. Announcing his intention, he says: We all must confess-every well-informed and candid man will confess-that the Republican party, compared to what it once was, has become the mere plaything of trick sters, of few brains and smaller hearts-traders in politics for per sonal aggrandizement-for the pur- poses of pelf and piunder; indeed, has become literally den of thiev- es, recalling what Christ said to the money changers who traiiicked in turtle doves for gain: Take these things hence; make not my Father s house house of merchandise - about what Abraham Lincoln would say to the so-callcd leaders of to-day could he speak from the tomb, and his words and actions, while living, still say as much with burning re- buke; and if this be true from na- tional standpoint--and, alas it is on- ly too true-what hope can be found reasonably to remain in Arkansas or for Arkansas from this standpoint is simply question too palably absurd to be propounded, "

PEARLS ORDEAL.

Are you better to-day, Katie?'
 "Oh, yes, Pearl, ever so much "
 The cheerful March sunshine streamed in at the window where Pearl Playlair had pinned up a piece of blue paper muslin to serve as a temporary curtain, and wrote it's glttering autograph on the carpetless floor that Pearl had stayed up the night before to scrub neatly, so that Katie should not feel the room neg lected.
 The two chairs were wiped free from dust, the tiny stove shone with a newly applied coat of blacking, and the chromo "Angelus, pinned against the wall over the wooden mantle, gave an air of refinement to the sloping-roofed apartment.
 Katherine and Pearl Playlair were all alone in the world. Their father had been hard worker bank clerk who found it impossible to save a cent before Death presented it's ac- count and bankrupted him at once.
 Their new distant relatives had distinctively given them to under stand that "blood was not thicker than water" and for more than q year these two brave girls had fought their own battle with the world.
 Katie was trimmer and finish. CT" in a fashionable dressmaking es. tablishment. Pearl was errand girl and generally useful hand at Miss Thorburn's famous millinery.
 Next year." she said brightly, "I can go into the show rooms and get a dollar week more wages. And won't be rich ?'
 But when Katie's dreadful colo deepened into a cough, and the doc tor said she must not leave the room Pearl found her twenty dollars ; month only insufficient to meet al exigencis.
 The doctor spoke to the kind littl, druggist on the corner, who put the medicines down to cost price; tn, bakers wife slipped in many an ex tra sponge cake and Vienna rol among the frugal orders the butch CT saved his choicest bite of mea for beef tea-for every one in tho ncighborhood knew and sympathizeo with the Playfair girls.
 But things had to be paid for, nev ertheless. And the tooth of provcr ty bites sharply.
 Pearl stood looking at Katie witt solemn, questioning eyes.
 That IS what you always say Katie" said she. And l know your cough was bad last night.
 "Did disturb you, dear!"
 "lt isn't that. But, oh, Kate, t see you growing paler and thinne every day-to know that you have tt stay alone here so long"
 But 1 don't stay alone, Pearl Mrs. Nippert comes in often, an' little Allie Smith,"
 And that isn't the worst of it Katie. The coal is out, and l can pay for any more until my Saturda, night wages come in.
 "It's lucky that the sun shines ir so bright" said Katie, hopefully
 "Never mind the coal, Pearl; IT cuddle down in bed, with the blanke shawl over me, and I'm sure Mrs l Nippcrt will make mp cup or tea oi her stove when noon comes, She's always so thoughtful, "

same circumstances; it was a blow
and not a push that Craig received.
j. G. Coltrin corrOborated the testi-

HOutz-You pushed him then be-
cause you were mad?

was on my foot.
Houtz-Were you on the track?
Witness Yes.
Houtz-Why didn't you get out of
his way?
Witness-Because | had more right
there than he had.
HoutZ-YoH are certain you did
only push him?
Witness-I know | didn't strike him;
| kicked his hat because it was in my
way; our car repairer then said to me-:
Here, Doc, no fighting here'; he told
me afterwards he did not see me strike
Craig.
Conductor Lund saw the trouble and
said: We were trying to prevent the
U, 2. engine from running into us; our
men were putting ties in front of the
engine; Craig was trying to take the
ties off the track; Lynch gave him a
push; he did not strike him, merely
