the train steamed out of the depot.
DR.. Watson called carriage and or

By way of sustaining his apprehen-

he remained through the entire week.
Message after message was wired to
Miss Brown during the week without
getting any answer in reply.
Suddenly one day the treachery of the

mind, and he dashed off dispatch, and
marking it ''rush" he carried it down to

The dispatch was addressed to Louise

It is the nature Ct man to pursue.
He regards the whole world as hunt
ing ground, and anything that rleases
his fancy, whether it be bird, a pretty
woman or brute, as his lawful prey.
He may not care for the game or
know why he pursues it, but the chase
is irresistible, and, like the child with
the butterfly, he will spoil his pretty
clothes, stub his toe and get his feet wet
running through brambles and puddles
IS long as tho winged thing is in sight.
If woman only knew it she could WIN
her lover by eluding him, for man ever
wants what he can't get easily, and
prizes most the fruit that hangs highest.
To him no beauty is so enhancing as
that which smiles and bushes beneath
the mystic web Of a gauzed veil, and
doubly lovely is the loneliness that turns
and flies at his approach.
Henshall knew neither rest nor peace
Of mind. The throbbing, sobbing notes
of Edna's violin were as sweet to him q
the music Of the rolling spheres to the
old philosopher.
He had eyes for nothing but the soft
browns Of her hair, lashes, complexion
and dress. He thought of her through
the day and dreamed of her in the night,
and could they have been vocalized ev-

find her."
And as he followed this small woman
with his thoughts and his soul his bride
Lena first became moody, then fearful,
and finally SO respondent that she threw
herself in the arms of her companion
and begged her to tell her what to do.
There was not any too much nectar in
the make up Of Mrs. Smith, and no dan
ger of her sharpening the edge of Mrs.
Henshall's sensibilities. Instead of put
ting her arm about her neck, and electri-
flying her medulla spinalis with the
magic Of her touch, she took hairpin
from her couture and proceeded to
loosen the cuticle about the girls finger
nails.

UP IN THE AIR.

The Day Coming When Man Will Posses. Wings.
Commercial Advertiser.
Not content with producing a
terrific gun, Mr.. Maxim is now
busy in the preparation of an aerial
machine, for which claims superior
ity over all other agencies in the
work of destruction. It is stated
that a sum of 100000 has already
been expended in the endeavor to
perfect this invention, and should
it be found necessary another s10,-
600 will be spent in order to insure
success. The construction is being
carried on no further from London
than Clayford, and the invention is
nearly ready for a practical trial.
Mr.. Maxim prepared himself for
the undertaking by an exhaustive
series of experiments, and it re.
mains to be seen how far these will
be verified with full.sized machine
performing a free flight. He states
that the machine has lately been
tested while captive, the engines pro-
polling it being at work, and he con-
siders the effect was equal to carry
ing at least 10000 pounds, perhaps
as much as $4,000 pounds.
The weight of the entire machine
including engines, men, fuel, water
and all accessories, is 5,40O pounds.
The fuel is gasoline, giving 5000
gas jets. There are two propelling
screws, and there is an engine to
each screw. Buoyancy is obtained
by the presence of the air on the
under side of the sundry planes,
ixclined upward, this pressure
being due to the forward motion of
the machine as driven by the pro.
pellors. There is much in Mr..
Max;m's machine which resembles
the plan devised by Mr.. Henson
nearly half century ago, but Mr..
Henson had to contend with
heavy engine for his motive power.
Mr.. Maxim has an advantage in
that respect, having apparently
done something toward devising a
lighter motor than has beenlprevi-
ously employed. Surprising the
machine actually to lift from the
earth: it will be interesting to see
how it then proceeds to behave. 1t
may perform some freak altogether
out of the reckoning, or it may
come so near steady flight as to
require only some slight modifca-
ton.

possible, to place it on exhibition at

less than thirty-one different varieties of

A Modern Samson.

John Whitman, the man who lifts 600
pounds, pushed q freight car weighing
$4,000 POUNDS along a switch on North
street, near Madison, in the presence of
about 800 people. He got between the
car he was to push and another, the
brakes of which were down. Seating
himself upon the second car, he placed
his feet against the forward car, and,
after taking deep breath, gave it one
mighty push with them. The car
quivered and then went forward several
feet. He did this several times, but
owing to the car being on grade he
could not move it very far. A car
weighing $4,000 pounds he moved with
ease. Mr.. Dunn, the yardmaster, said
the cars moved would take the efforts Of
at least eight ordinary men.
In the afternoon Whitman gave an ex-
hibition of his strength at the gym
nasium at the central police station. He
handled hundred pound dumbbell as
if it weighed five pounds. Captain Far
nan and one of his officers then got on
Whitman's back, who stopped over, and
with his teeth picked up two dumbbells
tied together weighing 100 pounds, and
at the same time lifted a hundred pound
bell in each hand. The bells and men
on his back in all weighed coo pounds.
Whitman also lifted 200 pounds by his
teeth. Laying out fiat on the floor, he
strapped afifty pound bell to his foot,
and then raised it up slowly, stopping at
intervals. One Of the most remarkable
feats he did was to tie twenty pound
bell on the end of strap, the other end
of which he held in his teeth. lie then
swung the bell around, and when he got
it high in air he jerked it back with his
teeth. Whitman, the wonder, was at one
time on the New York police force

There are SO many limitations of silk
upon the market that few simple rules
will be useful for discerning the good
material from the bad. If you gather
the fabric into folds, across its width,
and the folds are sharp like those of
paper, it is bad; the folds of good silk
will be rounded and soft. To ascertain
if white silk contains cotton suspend a
piece in wide mouthed bottle contain

cotton will remain white, while the

HOW to Use Penner.

Many people are under the impression
that black and white peppers are the
products of two separate plants. Both
are the dried seeds of creeping plant
known as piper nigrum. The white only
differs from the black by having been
blanched by soaking i'll water and the
removal of the skin. But as much of
the white pepper consists of inferior
seeds which, having shriveled and fallen
from the plant, have been blanched by
the exposure, it is wisest to use only the
black.
