we sent boxes and bouquets of lilies and
verbenas to the city every day by Mr..

strawberries before the sun was up and
got cherries out of the old lane. And the
money is ours-every cent of it,
''Honey, chr" said Mr.. Chesney, star
ing at the row of hives, for Elma had
dragged him out into the November
moonlight to the scene of action. "Well,
I've seen these many time, but | always

Didn't think there was SO much money
in 'em. Guess I'll try the business my

After that he regarded his family with
more respect. The mere fact that they
could earn money had elevated them inn
mensely in his sight.
But when spring came he lost his able
coadjutor. Miss Elma incidentally an

But Mrs. Chesney did not go to the
Penn farm. Mr.. Chesney hired q stout

worth while to keep her well and active,
he considered.

"Nor / either" said Elma ''And, oh,
mamma, shall always love those bee
hives under the hollyhocks, for it was
there that Walter asked me to be his

Mrs. Chesney tearfully kissed her
daughter. She, too, had been happy once

that Walter Penn was made of different

getting Money to Go shopping.

A well known artist, whose studio is
in New York, but whose home is in q
pleasant village an hours ride from the
metropolis, promised faithfully one
morning that he would do some shopping
for his wife. On arriving at his studio
he found that he had money enough in
his pocket for his lunch and no more.
What to do about the shopping? Sud
denly he bethought himself of an order
for an illustration that he had received
from a magazine. He set to work, and
in less than two hours had finished the
drawing, collected $50 for it at the pub

Mr.. AsToR,s ENGLISH ESTATE.
An Exquisite Sylvan Retreat of Lowell
mesa IT,rfvaied In England

An Exquisite Sylvan Retreat of Lowell
ness Unrivaled In England.
There is no part of the Thames from Lon
don to Reading better known or more ia
nous for sylvan charm than those over
hanging woods which fringe the steep river
bank near Maidenhead, and which belong
to the estate of Cliyeden-or, as 1t is some
times spelled, Cliefden. Few spots are
more familiar to the boating man, who
ranks It above all other beauties of the
Thames, the quarry woods at NARROW and
the plantations at Nuneham forming with
IL trio of characteristics riverain scenes
Looked at from a little distance-from the
Formosa islands bank, for instance-the
Cliveden woods appear to form dense
mass Of foliage, but in reality there are
numerous gaps, formed either by the wind
ing pathways or by exposed tracts Of chalk.
Magnificent yew trees hang from the
cliffs with their twisted roots exposed to
the air. There are luxuriant wreaths OF
wild clematis suspended from the tops of
the trees, while all kinds of Towering plants
grow plentifully in the shade. The LOTT
ness of the ridge opposite to the Berkshire
aide, which Is geographically a continuation
of Hedsor park, gives every advantage to
the hanging woods Of Cliveden, bringing
them effectually into contrast with the sur
rounding level land through which the
Thames in it it's subsequent course has for
many miles to run Whether we see them
In summer or in autumn, the exquisite va
riety Of tints In the trees forms picture of
forest loneliness which is probably unri
vailed In England.
The history of the estate begins with
George Villiers. duke of Buckingham, the
g. "a L. A.
fed In company with the Countess Of
Shrewsbury, who held his horse disguised
as page, while he killed her husband In a
duel. The Duchess of Buckingham-so
Pepys tells Unsolicited to the presence OF
the inconstant lady, saying it was not for
her and the other to live together IN a
house Whereto George Villiers answered,
Madame, did think so and therefore have
ordered your coach to beready to carry you
to your fathers" Then the scene changes
to the times Of Frederick. prince of Wales
and father Of George III, who resided here
for short period and listened to the ia
nous national air. "Rule, Britannia
which, composed by DIR. Arne, was per
formed before him for the first time on
Aug. !, 1T40. In 1875 the original edifice
was burned to the ground, and in 1880 it
was rebuilt by Sir G. Warrender.
A second confagration awaited it after it
had been transferred to the Duke of Suth-
erland, when 1t was once more rebuilt from
designs by Barry In 1849. The house itself.
which passed short time ago into the
hands OF the Duke of Westminster, is not
In any sense picturesque. It is q great and

brought to rare pitch OF pasfection, and

which looks toward Windsor castle, com

before writing was Understood.

How dld people send messages before the
art of writing was understoodS
Some suggestions on the subject can be
obtained from the methods used by the
primitive races of today. For example, in
the Yoruba country, west Africa the ma
tives send messages by means of shells
feathers, peppercorn, stones, COAL razors
powder and shot and many other things.
The meaning of each subject chosen is
known, and all Of them together make up
sort Of "code' by which intelligence re
lating to anything whatsoever may be
transmitted.
Simply by means of cowrie shells these
savages are able to conduct the most elab
crate correspondence. They are strung on
bits of grass fiber, and by the manner OF
their arrangement may be made to convey
the widest variety of meanings.
One shell is held to signify defiance; two
others. strung face to face, mean friendli
ness, but a pair of cowries strung back to
back are to be interpreted as an expression
Of enmity.
Two cowries, with feather fastened be
tween them, say Come as quickly as you
can fiy."-Yankee Blade.

THEOLOGICAL remedies for consumption have
almost reached point where he can make
q definite claim of results which were pre-
maturely asserted three years ago Pro
fessor Scaglione of Paris quotes Dr. Koch
as saying that the liquid which he has pro

efficacy in overcoming tuberculosis. He
administers the remedy by inhalation, not
by injection, as in the case of lymph, which
gave him worldwide fame few years ago.

WINTER NIehTFALL.

The rose has faded from the western sky

Now dim and faint the distant steeple grows
While nights drear shadows creep
Across the land and dull the weird repose

The deep dark curtains of the east afar
Shine with sudden light
And in a moment, with silver flood
The full moon rises chilli

That crowns the distant hin.

upon the manufacture of what is regarded
as an important new fabric-an inexpen-

pile or pile on both sides. A reversible pile
plush has in times past been made in the
factories OF Germany with hand looms at
the rate of some six yards to the loom per
week, but by means Of the newly contrived
apparatus, which has been devised by a
Bradford manufacturer and can be fixed to
ordinary dress and coating looms. 1t is said
to operate at seven times the speed of the
German hand loom and to make goods of
equal quality at less price The new goods
have welt pile, and consequently avery
