be sure that their telegraph messages
would arrive. So at last the policemen
and others were set to watch all over
the town to find out. if possible, what
was interfering with the business of
the state of Pumpernickel. Finally a
policeman saw the little bov cast his
fshing-rod to fish for the messages
from the wires between the telegraph
poles. The policeman in great indig-
nation rushed into the house and up
the stairs, and caught the little
boy in the act of making a
beautiful cast with his fishing-rod,
which would probably have spoilt
very important state message; but the
policeman was in time, and he said TO
the boy: II arrest YOU" This boy was
not at all intimidated. for he looked the
policeman straight in the face and said:
Policeman, where is your warrant?
You can not take me without war
rant" The policeman was quite taken
a back at hearing this truth and imme-
diately left the house to go and get
warrant. The boy did not like the idea
of being locked up for interfering with
the Pumpernickel messages; and SO he
immediately packed little handbag
and went to the railway station. and
took train which was just then start
ing for France. In this train he was
soon over the frontier and beyond the
reach of the Duke of Pumpernickel.
The policeman was very much aston
ished when he came back and found
that his prisoner had escaped, and had

Jack made no illusions to his sus-

last the old man yielded and once more

in their favor, before nightfall they
were landed safely at their destination,
and went about their business, which
was to the post Office; the result of

4 SURE THING.
Old Gases Of Malaria Need No Longer be
Invalds.

There is DO trying to dodge the fact that
gAiuine will not always cure malaria.
While it is doubtless true that large doses
of quinine or some other derivative OF
Calisaya bark will cure more cases of chllls
and fever than any other drug, it is equally
certai. that in chronic malaria it l., in a
majority Of cases, q fiat failure la every
malarious district there are thousands OF
people who continually take quinine and
set continually have more Or less frequent
attacks of malaria. These facts need no
argument. Every person who lives IN d
malarious locality knows them to be true.
A remedy capable OF curing these cases
of chronic malaria that quinlne will not
relieve would be great blessing TO hu-
manity and produce genuine sensation
in medical circles. This is exactly what
the remedy-Pe-ru-nR-w do. 1t cures
all those old and stubborn cases of chronic
malaria that have taken quiniue perhaps
Tor years without result. II thorough
course of Pe-ru-na is sure to remove the
aalarial poison from the system.

Ny lad with the laughing eye;
Look the world in the face with fearless

Neither telling nor acting liei
Be ready to help a friend in distress,

And do what you know TO be right.
Beware OF mean, underhanded act,
Be honest the whole way through;
Be noble in actions, in thoughts and in words,
And whatever you are, be true!
Though falsehood may wear a bewildering

False colors to knaves belong.

thing they did was to seek the bar and
ask for stiff jorum of brandy each,

AN ADVANCE IN STOCKS.

New YORK. Aug 26-It was day of
improvement at the Stock exchange, quite
a number of prominent issues selling at
the highest point of the week. at the top
notch stocks showed gains for the week of
2 to per cent. The main cause for the
advance today was the favorable bank
statement. In a general way the market
was strengthened by the recent arrivals of
gold and the couviction.that the Sherman
bill Will he repealed. The rise induced
some selling to realize profits, but at the
close the list was strong and firm. The
net galns for the day ranged from q to 211s
per cent.

At this moment the old woman came
back, and, casting her eyes over the
empty glasses and the bottle, from
which she could see quantity had
been taken, she said:
The room is ready now, gentlemen,
If you will step round. and the fire will
be up in a few moments, SO that you

the counter, with his eyelids closing.
mo. Charley, we'll walk about in
stead outside" answered Jack, firmly,
getting hold Of his companions arm
and beginning to drag him to the door.
Surely you are not going to stand in
the rain till the boat comes" cried the
old woman, in astonishment "Why,
the rain is worse than ever, while it is
SO comfortable inside, with nice sofa,
where your friend can rest himself If
he is tired"
''Yes-let US 60 to-fre-comfortable

herently.
NO" answered Jack. 'Outside or
nowhere. There is no one else about
the place, suppose?" he asked, as ne
thought he saw the door of the shed
opposite move.
mo one at all, not even dog or
cat" answered the old woman, as, with
sour look, she watched him drag his
almost senseless companion into the
rain
Down to the beach, where he had a
clear stretch of sand, he half-dragged,
half-carried his friend, and for the next
four hours he forced him by every de-
vice he could think of to walk about,
while the rain poured down persistent
ly, and the sea was ruf1ed. misty and
gray in front
He kept a watchful eye on the house
and that shed in front of it, and twice

saw the door open a little way and

woman also came from time to time to
