If Shenandoah had a $4,000 industrial
fund on tap business would be quite differ
ent in the town; in fact the cry of hard
times would not be heard, and for the rea-
son every person would be fully employed.
Gradually the empty houses would Gil
with prompt paying tenants and in time
new houses would have to be erected to
supply the ever increasing demand for
houses for tbs new comers Such picture
presents quite y contrast with the situation
Of to-day, and yet it is faithful illustra-
ion Of the d ference between trying to
make town and letting town go to
pieces rather than to raise a finger to save
it. This whole question of building up the
town by encouraging manufacturing re-
solves itself into this; 1t is simply boost
ing the town in order to help the individual
by making his possessions more valuable.

Manufacturing enterprises attract popu-
lation; population consumes food pro3ucts
goods wares and merchandise; rents
houses, buys land, erects buildings, patron
ICES schools, colleges railways and, high
above all, creates wealth, and scatters
money in every direction. Shenandoah, ia
hesitating to plant industries, is practically
strangling herself, and that is just why the
HERALD so stoutly protests against such a
shameful sacrifice. Shenandoah should be
a stirring, prosperous city; it can be so
made, but it will require patience ond ever
lasting push. The game is worth the
candle, therefore let each and oil do his
part, and dollars can soon be gathered
more readily than pennies heretofore or
now.

A parallel can be found in the policy Of
the real estate owner who will venture to
make Il $500 OF $1,000 improvement with
the certainty Of increasing the market val
uation of his properly 81, 800 to $1,000
Surely person would not hesitate long
over such prospect, and yet the same
person fails, perhaps, to see that investing
in manufacturing enterprises will have a
simila- effect on the real estate of Shenan-
doah, and instead of benefting but one
person will benefit every person directly or
indirectly in the town or near vicinity.
That planting and fostering industrial en-
terprses will affect the town, as shown, is
easily proven by the record of every pro
gressive city or town in the country.

HIS BURIED LEG.
Row the Intense Pain He Felt Was
Singularly Relieved,

''That reminds me-" said the man
who is always being reminded of some-
thing.
"What is it that remaids you, and
what OFF"
This item about man having his
leg buried the other day. l wonder if
he will have the same experience as a
friend of mine. Strangest thing l ever
heard of. You see the poor fellow had
suffered untold agony for year or
more after injuring his right leg by
falling downstairs. and finally the
member became so diseased that ampu-
tation was necessary. The man near
ly died under the operation, though
this is not the curious part of the
story. The removed portion of the leg
was taken away and buried. 1t is well
known, of course, to surgical science
that when man has had a limb cut
off he still suffers, or thinks he suffers,
pain-which amounts to the same thing
in the part of the member removed.
1t was so in this case, and as my friend
came back to consciousness his constant
complaint was of the most severe pain
in the buried foot.
"'There is something pressing upon
it. he would say in what seemed like
delirium; it's packed too tightly
''Now the sufferer knew nothing of
where or how his lost limb was buried,
but as a matter of fact it had been
swathed in a lot of hay, packed tightly
in box. and the whole put under
ground. Day after day went on, the
suffering of the man with the buried
leg and foot grew intolerable, until
finally he begged his brother to dig up
the piece of lifeless flesh, remove its
wrappings, and change its position in
the box. Only sick mans whim,
thought the brother, who was nursing
the unfortunate fellow. Still, why he
could never explain, he too was seized
with fancy that if he were to do as
the invalid wished and then tell him
about it the effect might be relief to
the sick mans mind. It's all none-
sense, of course. he said to himself, but
he went one night, just the same dug
up the limb relieved it of its wrap.
ping, turned it over in the box, and
buried the grewsome thing again,
thinking the next morning he would
tell his brother all about it. The first
thing his brother said to him when he
saw him was: Something queer hap
pened last night What was thatp'
We'll, you know what have been tell
ing you about my buried limb. how aw-
fully it ached, and how it felt as if
something was pressing upon it. Well.
just about 10 o'clock last night. when
the thing was aching its worst, l all
at once felt a relief. The pain was
completely gone, and l have not felt i.
since
The brother was astonished beyond
expression. 1t was just exactly five
minutes before 10 o'clock on the night
previous that he had changed the posi-
tion of the buried limb, and he had
not told a living soul of what he had
done. Rather curious, isn't ltP"-N.

PHOTOGRAPHIC FUN.
Some Racy Incidents in the Experience
of an Artist.

One old gentleman often came to
me to have his picture taken. He
wore white cravat about five inches
in height and he held his head above
it. 1 always tried to get his head
down, so as to obtain view of his face
without looking up his nostrils, but he
never let me. As soon as 1 placed his
head in good position he would say
that that was not natural, and up
would go his head. 1t was this gem
tleman who was told by a crazy
woman on the Jersey ferry-boat that
when he died it would not be much
trouble to bury him. as he was already
laid out.
A lady once brought her three chill
dren, a hobby-horse, a drum and
doll. They were to be taken in
1-2 inches. The girl Angelina was
not decided whether Charles Augustus
was to ride the horse and William
Henry hold the drum, or Uice UersG.
They had agreed to let my superior
judgment decide that momentous gues-
ton. As both the boys wished to
mount the horse a decision was no
easy matter. then learned that the
mother did not want the children close
together, as all the .'dog-ra-types"
were taken. She wanted Angelina in
the middle of the room, one of the
boys by the ''winder," and the other
boy on the other side of the room. 1t
was a brilliant idea; but how my cam
era was to reach them all, thus spread
out, was more than l could see. !
told her that it could not be done; l
explained to her the capabilities of the
lens, the concentration of the light,
and so forth, but she did not under
stand me. She said that she had been
told that l was disposed to be accom-
modating, but that was just the same
as the rest of the "dog-ra-type" men,
for three others had refused to accom-
modate her in this way.
Another lady brought her three chill
dren to be taken in group, and when
l asked her if she wished them taken
in any particular position she showed
her good sense by saying that she only
asked that they should not look like
three candles; she did not wish them
all standing straight.
An old lady. after sitting about half
the time required to have her picture
taken, raised both hands and exclaim-
ed. Stop it! stop it! winkedr'
As an elegantly dressed young lady
was preparing to sit for her picture
she asked, where must lookP" and
before l could answer her escort, a
very diminutive specimen of a man,
stepped in front of the screen and said
in squeaking voice, Look at me-"
The scene was so ludicrous that the
lady burst into hearty laughter, and it
was some minutes before she could
control her features for sitting.
After that, Look at me-" soto voce.
was for some time a by-word in the
gallery.

The Goldfish War.

To be sure there have been riots and
outbreaks in Holland, as in all other
thickly settled parts of the world
perhaps more than elsewhere, for
Dutch Indignation, though slow in
kindling, makes a prodigious blaze
when once fairly afire. Some of these
disturbances have arisen only after
long endurance of serious wrongs; and
some seem to have been started at
once by the queer friction-match in
human nature which, if left unguard-
ed, is sure to be nibbled at. and so
ignited, by the first little mouse of
discomfort that finds it.
There was a curious origin to one of
these domestic quarrels. On a certain
occasion banquet was given, at which
were present two noted Dutch noble
men, rivals in power, who had several
old grudges to settle. The conversa-
ton turning on the codhshery, one of
the two remarked upon the manner in
which the hook (hoek) took the Goldfish,
or Ea5bejaaus0, as the Dutch call it.
''The hook take the codfsh!" ex-
claimed the other in no very civil tone;
sit would be better sense to say that
the Goldfish takes the hook"
The grim jest was taken up in bitter
earnest. High words passed, and the
chieftains rose from the table enemies
for life.
They proceeded to organize war
against each other; a bitter war it
proved to Holland. for it lasted one
hundred and fifty years. and was
fought out with all the stubbornness of
family feuds. The opposing parties
took the names of "hoeks" and 'kab-
beljaauws," and men of all classes
enlisted in their respective ranks. In
many instances fathers, brothers, sons,
and oIdtime friends forgot their ties,
and knew each other only as foes. The
feud (being DutchD ragged hotter and
stronger in proportion as men had
time coolly to consider the question.
A thicket of mutual wrongs, real or
imaginary sprang up to further en-
tangle the opposing parties; families
were divided, miles of smiling country
laid in ruin, and tens of thousands of
men slain-for what?
Those who sought, and those who
looked on. longing for peace, are alike
silent now. History cannot quite clear
up the mystery. know how hard it
must have been to settle the knotty
question whether hooks or Goldfish can
more properly be said to be 'taken." y"
aud how dangerous the little horns of
anger and jealousy become if not
plucked out at the onset. 1t is certain,
too, that the hooks and kabbeljaauws
were terribly in earnest:
"But what they killed each other for
never could make out.
The kabbeljaauws had one advant-
age. When public dinner was given
by their party, the first dish brought
in by the seneschal Cor steward) was a
huge plate of Goldfish elaborately
decorated with flowers; something not
ornamental only, but substantial and
satisfactory; while the corresponding
dish at a hoek festival contained moth
ing but gigantic hook encircled by a
fiowery wreath.-Mary Mapes Dodge,
in st. Nicholas. -

100000 Ruples for a Throne.

If the prince is playing king IN Bull
garia because he loves the sense of
power, and it is exceedingly difficult
to believe that he can have any other
motive,-it is still true that Stamboloff
is manager and holds the box-office,
and that he is likely to change the
''star" whenever it pleases his fancy;
provided, of course, the Bulgarian
audiences still come to the play. In
other words. provided the various fac
tions struggling to get control do not
break up the theater and throw the
company and the properties into the
street.
1t is also equally true that M. Stefan
Stamboloff is to-day by far the most
commanding personality in his coun-
try. Never soldier, and always q
politician, with only three years
schooling at Odessa. he became when
hardly grown a Russian correspond
ent, and for some years thereafter
Russian agent. Rising rapidly by his
own fore" of character, he was ap-
pointed regent by Alexander when
he abdicated, AMI now when only
thirty-six years of age occupies more
of the nervous attention of the govern
ments of eastern Europe than any
other one man west of the Bosphorus.
Stamboloff's plan for governing was
five millions of rubles and king.
Who this king might be. or where he
should hail from, was matter of de-
tail. Anybody but Russian or q
Turk would do. And so numerous
offers were made in confidential way
to various gentlemen who thought
they had an especial, divine gift for
reigning, and who lacked the oppor-
tunity only because of the depleted
condition of their bank accounts. At
last fond and ambitious mother and
an obliging son with an almost unlim-
tied reserve fund-unlimited for the
ordinary needs of life-took the bait.
1t was not, however, harmonious
family arrangement; for it was well
known that the young princes uncle,
the Duke of Saxe-C Coburg. did what he
could to prevent the final agreement;
he being an older and wiser diplomat,
and having had long and varied ex-
perience in the ups and downs of sew
eral see-saw governments. Among
other things, the duke boldly stated
that it was only question of money
with the Bulgarian regents. and that
Ferdinand would leave the throne
when his guldens were gone. as Alex
ander had left, to whom the Bulgarian
Government then owed three millions
of francs. The dukes prophecy is not
yet fulfilled. If. however. the state
ment of reliable Bulgarians is to be
taken, very considerable portion of
Ferdinand's private estate (variously
estimated at from one-half to all of it)
has already been absorbed.--F. Hop
Ei7sSon Smith, in the Ce,,takry.

Dwarf Trees.

French gardeners are now obtainiLg g
the same results as the Japanese in the
production of dwarf trees, which are
in great demand, their fruit being just
sized tree. Their methods are kept as
secret as those in Japan, where one
sees trees 200 and 800 years old which
have been treated in such manner as
to stunt their growth and prevent them
attaining height of more than two feet
at most. Their trunks are gnarled and
twisted by age, but they bear no trace
of the pruning knife, and they consti-
tute an exact representation in minia-
ture of the grand old sycamore. oak,
cedar, or apple tree, which line the
magnificent fifty-mile avenue which
leads to the sacred shrines of "Nikko."
