hand said:
stay" And turning again to Mrs.
Fielding, she asked: as the young lady
you wished as daughter willing to mar
ry Ernest now ?"
"Now. Why do you wish to taunt me
with my misery? No, no."
Think you ofany whom you would
wish that would be his wife," Jewell
continued.
"No, no what has he to offer Blind
and poor, too"
"Not one? Think :" Jewell cred.
~Not one-unless-forgiye me-unless
it be you"
~And you-what say you ?" JEWELS
calmness had all fed, and almost wildly
now she placed her hand on Mrs. Field
ing and cried again Speak
Il would, gladly. But Oh, no, no, no ,
You, in your pride and beauty"
Would willingly, gladly, aye, joyfully
marry him this day Where is he? Nay,
1 will find him and will call you soon,
Doctor. Wait"
Her heart directed rightly. Gently she
opened the door, and with noiseless steps
reached his side. Kneeling on a stool Il
his feet she threw off her hat and resting
her head on his breast, she took the thin
white hand and passed it over her hair,
on her face, and pressed it to her lips.
"Oh, God Can it be? Jewell oh,
my darling| Ernest cried, his whole
frame trembling with emotion.
"Yes, love; here 1 am. All is right
now. shall never leave you again"
"Yes, yes L cannot permit this saeri-
fee. have nothing to offer now" he
said, yet elasping her closer.
"Your love is the deares. thing on
earth TO me. Unless have lest that
shall stay" and she nestled her beautiful
head closer TO his own.
That evening there was a quiet we'd
ding. Three days after Ernest Fielding,
his wife and DR.. Lawton sailed for
| France.
After an absence Of scarcely a year
they returned to Claremont. Rapidly
the joyful news spread through the sur
rounding country. Light had again been
given to Ernest's life. By Gods blessing
on French oeulist's skill, 4 wonderful
operation had been successful.
Doctor LawtOn is not married. lie is
perfectly devotedly to JewelPs little
children. One, her namesake, he de-
elares he shall marry some day. Stranger
things have happened.

A Remarkable Set.

Old farmer Gruf was one morning
tugging away with all his might and
main at barrel Of apples, which he was
endeavorins to get up the cellar stairs,
and calling at the top Of his lungs for
one Of his boys to lend a helping hand,
but in vain.

Of sweating and putting, accomplished his
task, and just when they were not need

pearanoe.

have you been about. I'd like to know,
why you could not hear me call ?" inquir-
ed the father, in an angry tone, and ad-

"Out in the shop, settin' the saw" re-
piled the youth.
"And you, Dick ?"
"Out in the barn, settin' the hen"

"And Dow, master Fred, where was

the old farmer of his youngest progeny,

ofanswers. Come, let us near ?"
"On the doorstep, seitin' STILL" replied
the young hopeful, seriously.

THE PENNSYLVANIA RAIL
ROAD EXHIBIT AT THE
WORLDS FAIR.
A Glimpse at Its Interesting
Treasures.

OF more real interest to the average
visitor TO the Worlds Fair than al the
confusing array of locomotives, cars,
ships, wagons, bicycles and velocepedes
in the great transportation Building IS
the compact yet comprehensive exhibit
which the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany makes IN its own beautiful Little
model railway station What with sig
nal tower, overhead foot-bridge, automAt-
ic switches, tracks, ballast and bitches
Just outside its doors, and the original
John Bull" locomotive, the Oldest in
America, with its train Of antique cars,
and the colossal iron vehicles upon
which the huge krupp guns we're con-
veyed from Baltimore 10 the Exposition
standing in TIE shadow Of its walls, it
presents to the passerby an appearance
so distinctly characteristics that a careful
inspection Of the treasures of the interi-
OF is almost inevitable.
Once inside you enter Immediately into
q study of transportation history in the
United States on the kindergarten or OBJ
ject-lesson basis, and by means Of models
ranging from the old Conestoga wagon,
through series of curiOusly fashioned
cans, up to the standard locomotives and
passenger coaches Of to-day, you secure 4
most effective idea Of railroad progress.
Nor DO tl.e models here shown have TO
do with vehicles only. In the cases
which line the walls Of the cool, white in
terror are also to be seen models Of track
Of al periods, various systems Of signals
in use at different times, and even tick
cts and time tables, not forgetting con
ductor's punches and lanterns.
In the way Of models, the post of hon
or is given 70 a magnificent reproduc-
ton Of the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany's new double-deek ferry-boat

Nes York and Jersey City, model com
plete IN every detail, even to the electric

esting and instructive character are nu-
merOus, not the least important being
one four feet wide by twelve feet long,
showing at once the old Portage, the new
Portage and the present road Of the com
pany over the Alleghenies, all arranged
to = scale. and giving better notion Of
that wonderful feat Of engineering, the
Horseshoe Curve, than can even be had

To furnish q comprehensive idea Of the
magnitude Of the Pennsylvania Railroad
system no better method could have
been adopted than that which is here
presented in the shape Of perspective

position Of eachtrain in motion on the
system at P. NJ, on Columbia Day, Oc-

Up In A Minaret.

Entrance to the mosques is rarely re
fused Christians, except on festivals, and
it is to the top ofthe highest minaret in
the town that we are bound. The mar
row spiral staircase affords no more than
bea room; the steps are
foul with summer blown dust, with bones
brought in by owls and kites, besides
other venerable rubbish, and after what
seems interminable gyration we emerge
upon the airy gallery which encircles the
top of the slender tower.
II IS a crazy perch, for the whole
structure sways sensibly in the strong
wind, and il seems as if a moderate kick
would send the frail parapet Gathering
down on the tile roof far below, but, if
your head is steady, the view well repsys
the labor of the ascent. Beneath your
feet elustef the fiGt-roOfed houses here
and there a chimney rises, crowned with
an immense stork's nest, making one
wonder how the domestic economy of
the bipeds within the house can be
reconciled with that OF the bipeds with
out
From the dusky labyrinth of streets
spring twenty-six minarets, like silyery
bodkins, besides the one to which We
were clinging. Then let your eye travel
over the splendid prospect lying beyond
the town. Full forty miles the fiat plain
is spread east and west, and five and
twenty north and south, with hardly a
tree TO break the level, save where the
peasants cots cluster round the fortified
oranges of the landowners. The north
ern horizon is closed by the massive
rampant of mountains which make the
latest shrinkage of Ottoman rule.-Bioek-

day, after my visit to Mrs. Gratebar, the
train boy went through the cars. as usual
with papers, magazines and candy, and
when he was making the trip with the
candy be threw package into the lap OF
little girl who was sitting with her
mother. They were nice looking people,
but it seemed to me somehow as though
they were very poor. l imagined that
she was a widow and that she had TO look
out noE for every penny. Well. the lit
tie girl picked up the eaEdy package and
looked at it all over and read what it
said on it, and finally she said to her
mother:
Mamma, can't have this candy -
And her mother said softly:
"'No, dearie. wish you could, but
mamma can't spare the money.
''The little girl didn't say a word more.
She Just held the package and kept it
ready to hand to the train boy when he
should come lalong. 1t was plain tina.
merely to hold it was pleasure.
"Sitting in the next seat back Of the
mother and her child was woman who
couldn't help hearing what had been said.
She had Of course kept quiet, but when
she saw the little girl sitting there hold

longer, and she leaned forward and said;

would permit me 70 buy the candy for

The Strike of a Sex.

The women Of Africa are taking on adj
vanced airs and trying independent ex-
periments that rather out-Herod the suf-
fragists here. A strike has taken place
among the women Of the Akona tribe,
unique in plan and definite in purpose.
They protested without avail against the
treatment of the husband and fathers.
Then they talked il over with the pre-
liminary Of organization, with no con-
stitution and bylaws. and appealed 70
another tribe with whom the AkOnas
were not on good terms. This tribe
agreed to take in all the dissatisfied wOm-
en-, and the village awakened the next
morning 10 find all its women and girls
gone, aud work at a standstilL The re-
suit was ready assent 10 all that the
women requested, and great rejoicing
