argued that new considerations had
been brought to bear upon him and
that he was morally obligated not TO
kill himself. If he could supply the
place of the brother of whom he had
robbed Miss Wilkie, he had no right to
take his own life.
Two days later he left Cloverdale for
the west He promised Miss Wilkie
and himself TO return in a few weeks
He would come back and claim her
! promise to be his wife.
He stndiously avoided his old haunts
and his old associations.
Late one November afternoon, six
weeks later, Arthur Zangwili dropped
from train at the Clovertiale depot.
He went to the single hotel and ate
supper. In appearance Zangwil was
ten years older than when he first saw
Cloverdale. During the six weeks of
his tabsenee he had been tortured by
the thought of his dead comrades. Sew
eral times he had been upon the verge
of killing himself andronly restrained
himself by the thoughts of Miss Wilkic
He had now rushed 20 Cloverdale on
the very eve of the expiration of the
sixty days limit of life of the suicide
club in a turmoil of renorse and fear,
to tell Miss Wilkie of his love. Once
she had promised to be his wife he
would be safe.
She was glad to sec him. She had
recovered to some extent from the ef-
fects of her grief and greeted him with

together for the first time of other
things than Price Wilkes suicide She
evinced marked interest in the rambling
accounts he gave OF his travels in the
west, and at last. when they were
alone and he took her hand in his. she
did not attempt to withdraw it.
She did not seem surprised when he
faltered out his confession of love for
her; her cheeks burned red and she
thrilled with an exquisite sense of
pleasure. There was a little womanly
reluctance at first, but when that was
overcome by his ardent pleading. he
kissed her for the first time
And then Price Willfie and the other
suicides were quite forgotten. They
sat until near midnight enjoying their
new-found happiness. In single hour
the future had assumed rose-colored
hues for both of them, and they re-
membered nothing of the past that
young lovers should not remember.
And about the wedding?" he asked
as he rose to go.
''Oh, that" she said, her face cloud
ing, that must not be in a year yet,
but we will see great deal of each
other and be very happy, won't we?'
Yes he said, kissing her: II am
afraid the people of Cloverdale will tire
OF me before that year is out. Good
night"
Good night, Arthur" she said. fond
ly. She held the door open and stood
watching him proudly as he vanished
down the walk.
Isn't it lovely night?" she called
after him
YES" he called back; 'it is divine"
Arthur Zangwi1l reached the street
and stood for a moment irresolute. He
could not sleep and there was no use
going TO his hotel He would walk,
enjoy the delicious night and reflect
upon his great happiness A curious
fancy inpelled him TO walk by Price

THE GENERAL AND THE BULL.
The Dignitary was Not Known to the
IL VI 4Elnered Animal.

The Dignitary was Not known to the
H!-Nanncred Animal.
Once there was very important
state official of California. who thought
everybody knew him or ought to know
him, says cX-Judga Rowland in one Of
his aftcr-dinncr stories. One day he
was walking through a fed when a
bull addressed him in an undcrtonc
and made for him with It's head down
and horns in position to raise him.
He was Il state official, a man of dig
nifty and political power and Of natural
pomposity.
But he ran. He ran surprisingly
well. lie ran even better than he did
for Office ana he got to the fence first
He clambercd over, out of breath and
dignity, and found the owner of the
bull calmly contemplating the opera
ton
What do you mean, sir" asked the
ira official, by having an Infatuated
animal like that roaming over the
feld?'
"Wcll, I guess the ball has some
right IN the field, said the farmer.
Right! Do you know who 1 am,
sir?" gaspcd the official
The farmer shook his head.
Il am General Blank. "
"WelI, why in the thunder didn't
you tell the bull?'

4 Dangerous Com Dlne.

St. Paul Daily News.
During the past few years there has
been terrific amount OF oratory and
newspaper denunciation launched
against trusts and combines. The
platforms OF al the PARTIES have de
clared aginst them. Congress has
passed a law prohibiting them-and
vet in the face OF all this the biggest
combine Of the century has just been
organized in Duluth. An organization
with Il capital of $4,000, 900 has
baught up all the iron mines and viii
run them with view Of securing a
monopoly of the iron trade just as the
Standard OIL company has secured
practical monopoly of the petroleum
trade In fact, the leading spirits
in the iron combine are the Standard
Oil capitalists.
The organization may be all right
for the cities at the head of the lake.
1t viii probably develop the iron prop
critics and build up an iron manu-
featuring industry more quickly than
private enterprise could. But if it
is successful it VIII acquire Il danger
GUS power 1t viii undoubtedly aim
to influence ana control legislation
both in Minnesota and Wisconsin. 1t
VIII be one of the forces with which
politics viii have to deal in the future.
Such combines usually know no party.
They are like Jay Gould, Republican
in Republican districts and Democrat
ic III Democratic districts-but always
for the combine. They may engage in
politics Ivy seeking to elect their own
tools to the legislature and the state
Offices, Or they may let the elections go
by default and rely or buying up the
legislators or officials after they are
elected.
The Daily News welcomes tie advent
OF new capital into the state, but when
it comes in the form Of such a power
full combination we deem it ourduty to
put the people Of the state and the
nation on their guard.

That variety which is attended with
muscular cantortions IS especially dis

occasionally met with cases of defcc-

have but faint idea of the agony of

Just think Of being unable to give
oral expression to your thoughts with
out subjecting yourselves to ridicule,
for it is a fact that while the deaf mute
is pitied, the sufferer is generally
laughed at. Suffering ami stlmmcr-
ing are terms that are confounded.
They are not Synonymous by any
means. Stammcring is an inability to
properly cnunciate certain elementary
speech words; suffering is a vicious
uttcrance, manifested by frequent rep
etitions Of initial or other elementary
sounds. Both are caused BY improp-
erly acting muscles of the vocal cords,
soft palate, tongue, checks, lips, etc.
Some Of these muscles are under easy
contro! Of the will.
over the muscles of TIE pharynx,
the soft palate, ana at the base of the
tongue, which moves its root upward
and downward, our power is not so
complete, and this causes the atfliction.

AN HISTORIC LEMON.
1t Was Expensive and Inflated Anne
Bo!cyn Ate 1t.

BoicEn Ate It,
Who ever thinks Of connecting such
q commonplace article of diet as the
lemon with the romantic history Of
Inflated Anne Boleyn? Yet, Indirectly,
she was the cause Of its first introduce
ton into England and so into popular
notice. Henry EiII.-who, if he rid
himself of his wives like brute, GER
tainly won them like a prince gave
such splendid feasts and parcants in
honor Of the coronation OF Anne and
of their previous nuptials as had sell
dom been accorded to queens of the
blood royal. These l1ingly entcrt in
mcuts were in turn followed by great
civic feasts in London, for which the
whole world was searched for deli
cacies to add to the spIendor.
At one such banquet, graced by the
presence of the royal pair, lemon
was introduced as an elegant novelty.
To an cpicurc such as Henry the ac-
QUESTION Of a castle in France would
have proved less acceptable, and such
was the Importance atta"hed to the
discoveries says an old biographer
that a special record was made Of the
fact that the cost of this precious
lemon was six silver pennies!

The question of protection against con-
tagious and infectious diseases has always
been of the most vital importance.
Modern medicine lays stress not so much
on disinfectants n deodorizers as on
~forIifying the body against disease germs.
We all encounter e every day disease germs
enough to kill us; but while the body is ro-
bust, we throw them of; it's only when the
system is sufficiently weakened and de-
pressed that these deadly germs gain lodge
ment and the power of doing harm.
Rev. A. ouellet, an excellent likeness of
whom is printed above, is n of the most
popular and greatly respected priests in the
lower provinces. His parish is in New
Brunswick,
Like thousands o others he tried the great
modern remedy first prescribed by Prof.
Phelps of Dartmouth, the remedy that gives
proper nourishment to iIl-fed nerves; that
procures the sleep that makes the brain
and nerves play their parts calmly and
tremendously; that drives the poison germs
of deep seated disease from the blood; that
gives tone to the system, and consequent
bouyancy of spirit and happiness. He
writes:
