problem the subject, however, still

has bsen a universal, but mistaken, be-

two feet are alike any more than hu-

It ia therefore impossible to devise
a shoe Of any special design that Is per.
fectly adapted to all feet. For exam

family also a constant dissimilarity in
the faces belonging to the same race.

Many reports complain OF the injury

gradual improvement, with more dispo.

They Oh hoose Death.

OsKALOosA, Ia, March 25.-John
Reed, IL years old, and Eta Shaw, aged
10, members Of two wealthy families,
contracted an affection for each other
that time only served to intensity. The
parents of the girl thought nothing of
the boys attentions until few months
ago, when he surprised them by asking
for their daughters hand. While thor
ouIhly satisfied with their daughters
choice, the parents thought both the
children too young too young to marry
and told them to wait few years long
er. At the same time they thought it
prudent to check the visits of young
Reed to the house. This did not seem
to have the desired effect, as the young
sters would meet clandestinely despite
the parental opposition. AS y last re-
sort Miss ShaWs parents decided to
send her away for few months to the
East, hoping that the change of scenes
and associations would result benefi-
cially. 1t Is believed that rather than
be parted the children resolved to die
together. They met and went out rid
Ing. They drove to clump of woods,
and threw q rope over the limb Of a
tree. Each end of the rope had q run
ming moose In 1t, and these they placed
around their necks. Then a sharp cut
OF the whip sent the horses and buggy
forward, leaving the boy and the girl
dangling in the air. The families Of
both the suiciders are nearly craaed ov-
or the affair. Mrs. Shaw, 1t Is believed
will lose her, reason, If not her life from
the shock.

found dead In the house, her head hav-
Ing also been beaten to a jelly. An aka

to have been the work of negro tramp
who was seen near the house at night.
