The best report on the labor ques-
ton probably ever issued in any coun-
try is the one recently issued by the
United States government, prepared
under the special instructions of the
Senate finance committee. 1t shows that
from 1910 to 1860 there was gradual
advance in wages and a corresponding
decrease in prices. From 1860 to 1865
there was q rapid increase of prices,
but the decline from 1865 to 1875 was
almost as rapid as had been the rise
while wages continued to advance till
1873, when there was a decline till
1879. when the tendency was again up

1898. All this time, however, the prices
of articles excepting rent were lower

drive straight to the garden-gate of the
widows cottage.
The wooden-faced farmer Is not kept
long waiting. There is hum of femi-
nine voices, the door opens, and Wanda
Arlington comes forth, looking in her
white muslin dress and broad straw hat
SO fresh and pretty that even old Bla-
don's eyes soften with honest admire
ton. She is accompanied by Mrs. Eve
sham and Kate, the former not looking
much older than when we saw her fif-
teen years ago; the latter developed
into handsome young woman of four
and-twenty-indeed, hers is beauty
you do not meet with every day.
Though in all respects she is contrast
to the girl around whose waist her arm
Is encircled, you cannot but confess that
she has as great reason to be con-
sidered d perfect type of her peculiar
style rs Wanda Arlington herself. The
one, the violet; the other, the rose.
The one, soft, sweet, modest, radiant,
like delicate flower with CLEAN OF
sunshine on it; the other, dark, vigor-
Gus, Juno-like, as the rainbow-hued
plant nurtured by the passion-breathing
sun of the tropics.
Wanda kisses the dear ones good-by
and steps lightly into the seat beside
Farmer Dolman. who, like most coun-
try yolsels, Is subdued into silence In
the presence OF ladies. He can scarce
find words to refuse Mrs. Evesham's
offer OF refreshment. Then, amid
much waving Of handkerchiefs and
many last expressions Of affection on
the part of the women folk. the
charioteer rasps the horses mouths
with vicious jerk of the rein, utters
long-drawn-out .sGit a-u-p!" and the
equipage moves away.
Not until it is quite out OF sight, and
the widows door has been closed, does
William Bladon stir-then taking one
last look up the silent street, he knocks
the ashes from his pipe and turns his
steps towards rustic seat under an
apple tree in the orchard, muttering

Perhaps from long experience George
Arundel knew that 1t was useless to

haps he was too chagrined TO trust him
self to speak; anyhow, he sat for
many minutes in sullen silence, Bladon
the meanwhile lighting his pipe and
calmly awaiting the result Of the young
mans cogitations. But he waited in
vain; his companion had not a word to
say. Now, If Arundel had roundly
abused him he would have taken the
scolding with Indifference, but to see
him sit there in sullen brooding
touched the old mans heart, for he
loved George as his own son. His

Havana was miniature edition Of
Glastonbury bound in 6oards--rough,
unplaned boards, MS unsmooth as when
they left the sawmill, battered by rain
and storm, and lending the village an
air of abject squalor and dilapidation.
Paint seemed an unknown quantity,
there in those days say in those
days, for year ago an enterprising
doctor discovered q medicinal spring in
Havana, built big sanitarium and con-
verted the dull fishing village into
gay summer resort, brilliant In color as
Joseph's coat; but when Wanda Arling-
ton first saw the place she thought
there never was a spot more destitute
of all that is pleasant to the human eye.
Even the grand old river, stately and
solemn, rolling with ceaseless swirl to
the ocean, failed to distract her mind
from the desolation around her.
Havana was blot on beautiful
landscape-man's dcflement of natures

Sidewalks lacked boards, fences were
broken down and burns and outhouses
showed great rents in their sides likc
gaping wounds. The streets were
