Outside the wind whistled under the

demons. Then it would sob and moan
and slip off like a pack Of frightened

Time and again he stopped over and
kissed the cold, wet lips, calling on
the silent form to speak to him. And
outside the wind went bowling by.
Then John opened his eyes and
smiled, and Briefly danced-yes, actu-

The story is very nearly told. Next
morning Dearborn got a telegram,
which said:
my brother is here; come. BRIEFLY.
And when he came John told them
how at the very moment he was going
to end his miserable life he had been
persuaded to ship as common sailor
on board the Mermaid. She had got
ten off her course in the storm, and
here he was.

For Royal Baking Powder. The Royal
is shown by all tests, official scientific, and prac-
tica, stronger, purer, and better in every way
than all other Baking Powders. Its superiority
IS privately acknowledged by other manufac-

If some grocers try to sell another baking
powder in place Of the "Royal, it is because Of
the greater profit. This Of itself is good evidence
ofthe superiority Of the :. Royal" To give greater
profit the other must be lower cost powder, and
to cost less it must be made with cheaper and
inferior materials and thus, though selling for the
same, give less value to the consumer.

A NICE OLD LADY.
Wife of the Grand Old Man Figures a.
Fairy GOdmOther.

=
Fairy Godmother.
A pretty story of Mr.. and Mrs. Glad
stones kindness to young woman is
thus reported by lady correspondents:
The young woman was the daughter
of a music teacher who many years
ago was engaged to teach Mr. Glad
stones children. This young woman
was anxious to enter the musical pro-
fession. In some way, says the CORE
spondent, she became known to Mrs.
Gladstone perhaps through her
daughters, the young girls fellow
pupils-and that lady, after hearing
her sing, showed her. recognition Of
the ability she displayed in many ways,
especially by inviting her to their
house that others might hear and adj
mire her also. At last the music mas
ter proposed giving concert at which
his best pupils were to perform. Of
course Miss $1,000 was among them, and
very much excited she felt at the pros
pect of making her debut before the
very select audience which was Sc
cured for the performance-Mr. and
Mrs. Gladstone, of course, conspicuous
among it's nembe She was not
afraid OF the ordeal, being modestly
confident of her ability to pass it
with credit to herself and master; but
she was woman, and very young
and rather pretty one, and SO it
damped her anticipations of coming
triumph to look at her old, shabby
evening dress, the only one she pos
sessed, and think of appearing in it
before the brilliant audience among
her well-dressed fellow pupils. In
vain did her mother remind her of the
admiral ton her superior singing would
excite; she felt that new evening
gown. smart and pretty, would effect
far more wonderful results than any
effort Of her own. and SO, in rather a
disconsolate mood she practiced away
and awaited the eventful hour
One day, to her surprise, she received
an invitation to dine with the Glad
stones on the evening of the concert,
and to drive witch them to the hall.
Very gladly she accepted it, and
thought how good it was Of them to
let her make her debut, asst were, un.
der their wing, besides saving her the
expense of a cab. So, though still in
rueful contemplation of her toilet. she
felt a little better, and in due time arr
rived at the hospitable door. There
she was shown into bedroom and
smilingly told that whatever she found
laid out was for her 10 use as she saw fit.
Surely the days of fairy godmothers
are not over, for on the bed spread out
in dazzling whiteness re posed marvel
of muslin, ribbon and lace, charm
ing evening gown fresh from the
modiste, and simple and pure as any
sweet girl graduate might wish to
wear at her first appearance in public.
There was no doubt about it, it was
really for her-this thoughtfully ar
ranged gift of the kind lady, whose
motherly heart had silently under
stood what the feeling Of the girl un-
der such circumstances would be. So,
very happily and gratefully, the pref
ty gift was donned. and the blushing
recipient fastened down to join the
family, whose venerated head was
quite as much interested in the little
surprise as, anyone else concerned
Liverpoo Echo,
Warren sheaf. [volume] (Warren, Marshall County, Minn.) 1880-current, 1894-12-27

from the recesses of his brain short
striking sentence, he penned it quick
ly before it could escape him, and for
five minutes his facile pen slid SMOOTH
ly over the paper.
Then he needed another idea; again
the pen was poised in the air. Again
he heard the muffied sob. This time
he launched a string of unusually pic
turesque oaths and started to.investi-
gate.
Yes. there could be no installing
that sound. Some one was sobbing
strongly and trying to control himself.
Now, under all his rough, gruff exteri-
or old John Dearborn had as warm and
kind a heart as ever beat. Guided by the
sound he softly opened the door of one
Of the small rooms and stood there
looking in and thinking what dra-
matte scene it was.
There sat Briefly in the middle of
the room, his arms stretched out on
the desk before him, his head buried,
and his hand holding the letter. He
was crying like baby.
Dearborn stepped in and laid his
hand firmly on Brierly's shoulder
Briefly turned startled, defiant face
up to Dearborn's and growled out:
"What do you want?'
whats broken you up, old man?"
said Dearborn.
Nothing" said Briefly, catching his
breath.
You're a liar" said Dearborn, ''and
you have got to tell me what the mat
ter is. Perhaps can do mething for
you"
With that he stepped to the door,
snapped the key, and put it in his
pocket.
Then Briefly began to sob again.
Dearborn hummed tune, whistled
bit, swore under his breath and wait
ed for Briefly to grow calmer Final
ly he looked up and said with an eff
fort:
II have got a letter-from brother
that's given me the blues. Come up
the hill with me when we get good
night and will tell YOU
When the men came in at midnight
from lunch Briefly was sitting at his
place as usual and looking over a pa
per as if nothing out of the ordinary
had happened. They glanced inquir-
ingly at him, but they didn't dare to
ask for an explanation.
At $3.50 he said good night. hunted
up Dearborn, who was waiting for
him, said Come" and they started up
the hill.
When the whole story was told long
afterward Dearborn said that during
that walk to Brierly's room neither
spoke single word to the other.
When the gas hared up in Brier]y's
room, Dearborn saw small coy
apartment with desk in the center
anl the walls completely lined with
books. A cot stood in little alcove.
Briefly poked up the fire, handed
Dearborn pipe, lighted another him
self, and reached into his pocket.
All this time he had not said word
and Dearborn, with the ready tact
born of a long newspaper experience,
