marring the real bolster OF which it
rests. At the real bolster the bolts are
simply dropped in without burrs, it be-
ing necessary to change the length OF
gear quickly and easily to suit different
lengths of logs. The four holes in the
holsters are all the preparation neces-
sary to fit the truck for the rack.
The false holsters have a slot cut in
each end to fit the stakes. This is easily
made by boring an inch hole neal the
end and saving out the wood at the
end. d is a piece of scantling toe
nailed onto the underside of the false
bolster, just thick enough to rest on
the truck and distribute the weight.
&C are adjustable blocks to hold the
logs in place. AS generally made, very
little headwork is used in boring the
holes or adjusting the straps, and |

year around, where this arrangement
is about as unhandy and incomplete as
can be. A few words and a descrip-
ton of a form of attaching blocks

Here is something from Mr.. Frank

House, Lewiston, and the Tontine
Hotel, Brunswick, Me. Hotel men
meet the world as it comes and goes,
and are not slow i'll sizing people

with colds, and he
Hereditary often coughs enough
to make him sick at

ever he has taken a
cold of this kind he uses Boschee's
German Syrup, and it cures him
every time. Here is a man who
knows the full danger of lung trou-
bles, and would therefore be most
particular as to the medicine he used.
What is his opinion? Listen Il

Syrup, and have advised, Ipresume,

sons to take it. They agree with
me that it is the best cough syrup

the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inllamU0 condition of the mu,

this tube gets in1amed you havea rumbliug
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condi

nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh

~, 81 shall come back rich,

and pinching, and starving for us"
1t was the picture wrought by his en-
thusiasm-his belief in the of
untricd lands, and the girl, younger in
years, but older in wisdom-the wis
dom of experience, could not feel so
sure of unlimited prosperity as did
this brave lover, waiting to bid her
farewell. She looked up bravely through
her tears.
But it will be two years, may be
three, before we shall see each other
again, Larry" and she turned her face
away from him that he might not see
her grief.
Lawrence Rogers took the slight form
in his arms and dried the tear-wet blue
eyes as only a lover can.
II must go! There is no other way.
You will be true to me, dear? You
will wait for me till | come back to

'lIow can you ask me?" she cries. Il

Eyes. darling, and we shall spend our

He is gone, and Ella Winchell is left
to the scant consolation which her fam
lily affords. Her parents have opposed
her engagement from the first.
Lawrence is poor, and the Winchells
have been really poorer than they have
seemed to be Germany years. for Robert
Winchell has been a man to whom the
future holds out golden promises which
the present never fulflls. He is now
deep in a new enterprise which he
thinks will be successful. The outlook
has been dreary for Ella, especially of
late, when she has had another sutton,
old and rich, James Ford by name.
He is a kind-hearted man who has
been a bachelor all his life and has
fallen into the habit of spending an
evening now and then with Robert
Winchell. the friend of his boyhood. He
has not seer how matters are going on
between Lawrence and Ella, but has
learned that the girls fresh beauty and
frank, winning manner are fast becom'
ing greater attractions than the com
panionship of his old friend.
At first Lawrence's letters were full
of hope, and Ella felt that the time was
not far off when she could be mistress
of her own home and no longer sub
jected to i%nsinuations against her lover
Only a year had passed since
Lawrence's departure when every
thing was swept away from them. Mr.
Winchell's business had failed from
