The Bishop is great pedestrian and
this remark was not entirely tigura-

however, that he was nearing that age

There is such thing as overtaxlng

should remember the Importance of

A NOVEL DUEL.
The Principals Walk Into Dark Room
Filled with Tarantulas.

The Principals Walk Into a Dark Room
Filled with Tarantulas.
The details of one of the strangest
duels ever fought has been brought to
this city, says a Las Vegas letter, by
prospector who has been in the noun
tain southwest of Las Vegas. The coun-
| try is near the border line between Old
and New Mexico, and the people there
are mixtue of the two races. Two
| young men--an American and Mexican
fell out over young woman they both
loved, and the result was the enmity be-
came too great to be carried, and it was
determined to end it in duel.
The matter came about in an unusual
way, however, and it was not regular
challenge and acceptance, but while in
company of mutual friends the Mexican
tainted the American with being mem
Der of towards and said the Americans
had no bravery. The American, of
course, disputed this and said that he
would test the Mexican's bravery if he
wished it. He would be willing to 90
into dark room with the Mexican and
there decide the point. But the stipula-
ton was that in the dark room there
should also be a lot of tarantulas turned
loose. If either came out alive he was to
have the girl. If either showed the
white feather and came out before the
death of the other or before all the
tarantulas was killed, he should give up
all claim to the girl. The Mexican was
disposed to refuse, but the fear of being
looked upon as a coward caused him to
accept. The room was prepared and the
two went in. There were at least doz-
en- tarantulas in the room and also two
scorpions. The American walked boldly
into the room and took his stand while
the Mexican followed, but was hesitating
in his manner. The doors had been
closed but short time until the Mexican
was heard to scream out that he was bit
ten and dying. The doors were opened
and he staggered out and fell to the floor.
The American walked out, unhurt. and
then it was found that the Mexican had
not been bitten at all, but had scratched
his hand on protruding nail in the
wall and had thought it spiders bite.

Tine Power off Monev.

What an influence, for good or evil is
exerted by the proper or improper use of
money. 1t seems to be the first essential
of modern life. Sad indeed is the lot of
that man or woman without money and
without friends. Especially in cases of
sickness is the need of money felt most
plessingly, and yet even the rich with all
their money fall into state of poor
health and die, whereas if their money was
rightly expended and the proper RENE
dies applied they might regain their
health and strength.
Z. A. Clark, Atlanta, Ga, says: II
spent four hundred and eighty dollars in
gold to cure me of terrible blood poison
that affected my limbs and nose and
body, with running ulcers. One months
treatment of B. B. B. healed the ulcers,
restored my appetite, strengthened my
kidneys and added q pounds to my
weight"
Still, in spi tie of this and much other
testimony there are many who refuse to
try the remedy, seeming to prefer to pay
large fees to physicians, or visit distant
springs in vain hopes of recovery. The
great truth however, ever shines brightly
and that is, that no one who ever gave
B. B. B. Botanic Blood Balm) a trial
ever found disappointment therein.
o. Il. Rudolph, 'Ealladega, Fla, writes
II had blood disease for six years, but
nothing benefited me, although paid
two hundred ana fifty dollars for treat
ment. At last l tried B. B. B. and found
it quick and cheap blood purifier"

Little Bessie's doll had lost one eve,
It's face was cracked, one arm was gone
and most of the internal sawdust had de
parted. She placed it in a sitting post
ure on the floor in the corner of her play
house, examined its forlorn and shrunk-

regretfully, yet decidedly: "You can
stay in the family if you want to, Dolly;

THE LAMP IN TIE WINDOW.
PLACED THERE BY A CHILD,


Reunites His Father and Mother--A Re-
marlxable Story.
From the Detroit Free Press.
The life saving departments of some
countries keep a careful record of the
lives lost upon each coast, but it would
he difficult to estimate the number of
lives saved by lighthouse. The people
living near town, however, will often
tell you of vessels, and even give the
names of individuals, preserved by the
light. There is lighthouse near vii
lage upon the Canadian shore of Lake
Ontario that has had as great part in
the lives of some upon the land as it
could have in that of any mariner. Be
fore the lighthouse was built young
couple lived in cottage overlooking the
town. One day they quarreled, and,
smarting under his wife's sharp words,
the husband went away. She repented
before he was out of sight, but was too
proud to call him. She thought he
would soon return, but he did not come
back, and the baby in the cradle grew
to be boy of seven. But he could not
run about and play, for he was a cripple,
and the neighbors took their sewing to
her and she stayed in the cottage, always
sewing except when she was doing some
thing to entertain the boy. When the
lighthouse was built he was delighted,
for he could watch it from his window,
and when the light was shown his joy
knew no bounds. 1t was companion to
him, for often in the long night when he
could not sleep for pain he would look
out upon it. One day he asked his
mother if he could keep lighthouse too,
little window, and every night when
the light from the great tower flashed
out, the lamp in the cottage window was
lighted and kept just as faithfully. The
husband was wandering about, never
very prosperous, never happy, and at
last he grew very ill. He thought that
before he died he would like to go back
and take one more look at his old home,
and perhaps get glimpse at his wife as
she went about her work. He reached
the place late at night, and when he saw
the light in the window he thought it
could mean but one thing, that his wife
had put it there, so if by chance he saw
it he would know that she wanted him to
return, and in the morning she found him
fainting upon the doorstep and very ten
derby nursed him back to health again.
When the father had nearly recovered
the boy died. His life-work finished and
there were no need of his suffering any
more. Before his life went out, he gave
to his father the lamp in the window,
and upon his mother he bestowed his
possessions in the great light over the
water, for company if she should be
wakeful in the night or left alone again.
she has never been alone since. and the
years that have passed have been very
prosperous ones. People sometimes
wonder that the fine house is not more
conveniently located, but the mother
never wants a room except where the
windows look out upon the lighthouse.
And in beautiful cabinet is preserved
the little lamp locked away from the eyes
of the curious and Indifferent, as one
keeps in his he TT a great sorrow or
great love-

A degraded specimen Of humanity, csreworn

The mans action and manner showed conclu-
sively that his appeal was from the heart
Onoe respectable and we'll to do, the man had
been degraded by the drug, and now In the last
extreme had determined to use heroic meas
ures to reform.
Unwilling to commit the man, the nAgis-
trate urged him to conquer his craving by
