ows, thought Miranda, as Charlie

prattled namely at her side.
Miranda went to bed that night
vaguely disappointed and unhappy,
and had painful dream of a dis
troted Ferdinand photographed on
spoon. Charlie came to luncheon
next day. Miranda was tired and a
little cross; found him horribly un-
interesting. Nice? How could
auntie say he was nice? He had not
two ideas he chartered like an ape
and was quite as ugly; his eyes
were not the least like Ferdinand's.
He was an imposter; he bored her.
She wished he would 60.
He and her aunt had all the talk
to themselves; Miranda sat by silent
and glum, and said she had head
ache. She was only half conscious
that Charlie was babbling and bragg
ging of his exploits on the ice in
Canada; she only half heard what
he said when he asked her aunt if
she had ever got the photos he sent
her year before.
"Nine of our skating club and the
what do you call it?-you know
-
sob, yes" said her aunt, II got
them and put them all into photo
graph screen. 1t used to stand on a
table in the third room upstairs. I
dare say it's somewhere up there.
Let's go and look for it,"
Photograph screen ?"
The words woke up Miranda like
a pistol shot. At last-at last | And
what was going to happen? Was
her sin TO find her out ? No, she
would never confess, but she felt very
guilty, and shook in her shoes.
However, she managed to walk up
stairs in them behind her aunt, with
Charlie at her heels.
In the third room her aunt pulled
out the drawer of cabinet. "Here it
is" said she, "folded up as fat as a
pancake"-and she gave it to Char
ley who unfolded it.
"Yes," cried he, with his wide
laugh. "here we all are But I say,
where's the-the-combi n ton
composite-what'd you'd call it /?
Nine of US blended into one, you
know-the new dodge. What's be-

we made. too. Bit of Brown, bit of
Jones, bit Of me. By Jove! WHAT'S
the matter? Are you i'll {? Here, sit
down. Where's the eau-de. cologne?n
Miranda sat down. She did feel a
little faint for an instant while she
realized the truth, and Ferdinand
melted into space but then the sup
pressed fun in her slower naturev
jumped up like Jack-in-the box on
the phantom heels of the vanishing
Ferdinand, and she went of into
peals on peals of inextinguishable
laughter. They were rather fright
ened; her aunt slapped her hands,
Charlie emptied the bottle of eau-de-
cologne over her, and / am afraid
she slapped him.
"Me poor child" said her aunt,
"she's hysterical."
I'm nothing of the Sort" gasped
Miranda, trying to stop laughing
going off again and speaking in
spasms, sob, oh, oh ! it's too, too, too
funnyl Oh, oh, oh that 1 should
fall in love-with nine men-at oncel
No, no, no ! with nine-bits of menl
Oh, oh, oh ! thing-of shreds and

About six months ago my little son, aged
three, was very much troubled with a breaking
out on his scalp and behind his ear The places
effected were about as large as silver dollar,
the flesh seemed raw and covered with little
blisters. The child suffered considerably, and
was naturally very fretful. Itried several rene
dies without obtaining any beneficial results,
in fact the eruptions seemed to be spreading
and new places breaking out / concluded
to try the CUTIcURA REMEDIES, and bought
box of CUTIcURA, a cake of CUTICURA SOAR,
and bottle of CUTIcURA REsoLvENT. washed
the effected parts with the CUTIoURA SOAP,
taking care not to iTritate the flesh, and applied
CUTIcURA. noticed change for the better in
the appearance of the eruptions in twenty-four
hours. continued the treatment morning and
night, and in two weeks the eruptions entirely
disappeared, leaving the skin smooth and the
scalp clean, in fact perfect cure, as have not
seen any indications of any eruption or breaking
out since. gave the child only few doses OF
the CUTIcURA REsoLvENT. 1 consider your
CUTIcURA REMEDIES very valuable, and expect
to keep small supply constantly on hand. /
believe CUTIoURA would be excellent for apply
ing to insect bites, which are very annoying in
this country. c. A. ARMSTRONG;,

wHITTIER's APosTRoPHE TO CLAY.
Whittier was great admirer OF
Henry Clay, to whom he wrote an
apostrophe in which occur the lines
"Not fallen! AS well the tai
And pillared Allegheny fall"
That poem gave a world oftrouble
to Whittier. In 1874, when Clay
was a candidate for the presidency,
this poem was reproduced and ran
the rounds of the Wing press. Whit
tier protested against its publication
as an electioneering document and
issued card beseeching the editors
to let mot fallen fall, urging that the
verses no longer expressed his SEN
timents; that he had changed his
mind that, in fact, and to be candid,
Mr.. Clay HAD fallen in his estima-
ton. But poor Whittier did he
think to light fire on dry prairie
and then extinguish the flames he
protested in vain. The poem liter
ally ran like wildfre, and Whittier in
chasing it got clean out of breath.
But this was not the worst of 1t. The

NEW MINING CAMP.
Miners Are Flocking to La Belle Camp
in Taos COunty-It is Already
Quite Settlement.

La Belle mining camp in Taos county
is now occupying good portion of the
public eye. The Denver papers are
speaking of it as second Cripple Greek
and the press generally is referring to it
in the highest terms. This camp is To-
Gated about four miles northwest of the
western boundary of the Maxwell land
grant and about thirty-fve miles distant
from Catskill on the Union Pacific rail
road and Antonito on the D. & r. g.; and
stage lines from Catskill already in oper-
alton and one from Antonito now being
arranged make the camp thoroughly
accessible. A committee from the Trlni-
dad chamber of commerce reports to that
body that between 600 and 700 men are
at this camp and more are constantly ar
irving. The gold-bearing ore is largely
of low grade, but it is SO plentiful and
so easy to work that it pays handsomely.
Some assays, however, run as high as $40
ton. A townsite has been laid off and
one day last week sixty lots were sold.
Parties are figuring on saw mills and
stamp mills and the prospect is that sew
eral of each will soon be in operation.
The camp is only four months old, but it
already has the appearance of lively
mining camp.

War Notes.

London, Oct. 5.-The Manchester
Guardian is informed that Russia and
Great Britain have definitely decided that
the settlement of the war must be an
International and not a Japanese affair.
Germany and France are said to have ac-
quiesced in this decision, while the policy
of the United States is still regarded as
uncertain. Russia, according to the
Manchester Guardian, has already warned
Japan that the future of Corea concerns
the Russian government. Japan, in her
present mood, will pay no heed to any
representations by the various powers,
unless accompanied by tangible evidence
of an intention to back them up. 1t was
to authorize this, according to the Guard
ian, that the English ministerial council
was summoned day or two ago. 1t
further says that after showing of force
Japan would be told that England de-
sired an armistice established and on be-
half of Europe would Immediately call an
international conference. The Globe and
the st. James Gazette express the opin-
ion that the Manchester Guardians
article gives the real reason for the meet

threatened, for Russia, France and even
America will certainly intervene"
