A Slight Obstacle.

1t was one of those American homes
wherein many a weary hour is whiled away
in cutting coupons off bonds. yet love had
entered there.
The daughter of the house was to be mar.
ried on the morrow.
In the great drawing room, where gold
and precious stones reflected in myriad
tints the mellow radiance of the lights
turned low, she fingered yet q moment with
her lover by her side.
And are you sure you are quite"--
Drawing her tenderly toward him as he
spoke, he gazed into the depths of her soft
eyes.
-"ready to take this, the most impor.
tant step of your life?"
She smiled.
''Yes, Alfred"-
Her glance was eloquent with love and
trust.
~ am ready; that is, will be as so.
as my maid has soiled my dresses sufficient
ly to get them through the custom house
without duty"
Emboldened then, he imprinted kiss
upon her brow.-Truth.

MONTH. MEAN.

There is no other locality, even the
boosted climate of southern France, that
can show such a stable and equable
range of heat and cold. The health seek
er need fear no sudden changes. A little
attention to clothing and he can bid colds
and inAammations defiance. In cases of
death from tubercular disease the New
Mexico rate is only in 1000.
This is the lowest known record, and it
must BIZ remembered that the local con
tingent Of consumptives is daily aug
mented by the immigration of those who
seek respite from that dreaded scourge.
The record of deaths at Santa Fe is
much lower than the territorial average.
In New England the consumptive death
rate is rs out of every 1000 of the COM
munity; in Minnesota it is II, and
throughout the southern states six per
1000. This city enjoys the spring eli
mate of northern Illinois and Indiana
the summer climate of Wisconsin, Michi-
gan and Minnesota, and the winter
temperature of southern Illinois, Indiana
and Tennessee. This, however, is only as
shown by the thermometer. The dry
tonic air of the mountain altitude fills one
with vivacity and health, and so strong is
the Influence of the ozone and electricity
on the nerves andsystem that acclimation
is wonderfully rapid. This of itself is a
great boon. Cases are on record of in
crease in the chest measure of immi-
grants here of from four to seven inches.
NATURAL ATTRACTIONS.
Besides this Santa Fe lies in q most
picturesque valley. 1t is at the entrance
of splendid canon, Astounding in natural
curiosities. 1t is also the gateway of the
Pecos National park, where fish AMI game
abound. Within easy riding or driving
distances there are over forty places Of pic
turesque and OF historic interest. Among
which may be mentioned the old adobe pal
ace, first erected shortly after 1905, from
which the Spanish viceroys ruled this
great province. The present structure
,latcs from about 1716; but il is full of
interest, as every room is consccrated by
tho memory of thrilling events. In this
building Gen. Lew Wallace wrote his
famous Ben Hur.
The chapel of San Miguel, was built in
1850 and still stands. By its side is the
oldest house In the United States. Thr
walls of the old cathedral date from 1922,
but the rest Of the structure IL of more
modern date. Within convenient dis
tances are the Indian pueblos of Tesuqus
and Nambe; in side canon of the Santa
Fe arc the delightful Aztec springs, while
about nine miles up the main water
course is Monument rock. The road
thither is one of SURPRISING lovelinees.
TO tho south of town is Aqua Fria, and
the famous turquoise mines pronounced
by Tiffany the finest In the world; and
beyond the Rio Grande are the San Ilde-
fonso Pueblo and the curious cliff dwell
iipgs.
Other points OF interest to the tourists
are: The Historical society's rooms; tho
"Garita," the military quarters, chapel
and cemetery Of Our Lady Of tho Rosary;

Muscle and VigOr-A Difference.

Muscle and VigOr-A Difference.
Many muscular men succumb to
fatigues horne with ease by persons far
their interiors in physical strength.
Muscle does not imply vigor. In fact, it
is not difficult of proof that athletes do
not live as long nor enjoy as good health
as the average individual who is vigor-
ous-that is to say, whose digestion and
sleep are unimpaired, whose nerves are
tranquil, and who has no organic tenden-
cy to disease. These requisites of yigor
are conferred upon those inherently weak,
no less that upon those debilitated
through wasting disease, by thorough,
persistent course of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, the leading national tonic, in
dorsed and recommended by physicians
of eminence. 1t will not endow you
with the muscle of Corbett, but it will
infuse energy into your system, and re-
new the active and healthful performance
of its functions. 1t averts and cures

stipation, liver trouble and nervousness.

A COMPOSITE Novel.

Twelve of the bright and cultured
women of the Twelfth Night Club of
New York are writing a novel, each
writing chapter. 1t promises to be
an affair most unique and as full of
situations as a want column, as the
writer's are all clever and capable Of
turning out something worthy. The
book, when completed, will undoubt-
edly be very interesting, but not one
half so interesting as the book of ma
ture unfolds before the eyes of the
tourist who takes trip over the ST.
Paul & Duluth railroad. This line,
which is popularity known among its
friends as the Duluth Short Line,
runs through one Of the finest and
most picturesque sections OF the state,
and is the route that appeals to those
to those who wish to travel between
ST. Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth, West
Superior, Taylor's Falls, and other
well known points The Duluth
Short Line is famed for it's equip
ment, it's fast trains, its smooth road
bed, it's easy schedules, it's handsome
terminals, and the fact that it is al
ways progressive. Circulars, etc., pro-

POPULAR PASTEME.

In these early days Of spring, when
the robins are supposed to ''nest
again and the budding of politics
takes on its yerdant tinge of rumored
combinations, it seems a popular fad
to charge everything in the way OF
setting up pins for this or that candi-
date, and in fact for all the offices in
sight, to Gov Nelson.
First, he is making United States
senators with weather eye out all
the time for the main chance to drop
in and knock down the persimmons.
Then he is debating who shall and
who Shall not go on the state ticket,
with the senate always in view, and
in fact there is nothing that the gov
ernor is not into if we are to believe
the festive reporters imaginative con-
| ception of the situation
If it were true that the governor
wOulda like to go to the senate, the
very things charged against him would
certainly prevent the accomplishment
of such feat. To dictate state slate
or be willing participant in selecting
the candidates to go on the ticket
only to be ratified by the conven-
ton would dispIease six Republi-
cans where it would please one,
and herein lies the improbability that
he is interesting himself in any pro-
posed combination. & He will be &C
corded a denomination without OPP
position. The various candidates for
State offices are all friends of the Gov
ernOr, and he is, SO far as is known,
friendly with all such. 70 suppose
therefore, that there is any such gin
tention On the part OF Gov. Nelson as
he is charged with, looks decidedly
inconsistent and thoroughly improb-
able.
This, abOve.all other years, is going
to be bad one for pre-cOnvention
states. The Republicans propose to
nominate their own ticket and do it
through the medium Of the State con-
ventiOn.

EAGLE LAKE TEHS.

MARCH, 6, 1894.
During the early months OF winter
small parties were seen gathering for
prayer in the rooms of our school
house. This work multiplied greatly
and was taken to the church. The
assistance Of Rev. W. Stone, Method
list, was secured, and regular evening
meetings have been continued for
about four weeks. During the first
three, the meeting attracted very
little attention, but during the past
week there has been unbounded sue
cess. SeVenty-One persons have pro-
feSSed conversion, and over fifty uni
ted with the church. Many of these
are old persons and heads of families.
The young men of our quiet little vii
lage are becoming thoroughly aroused,
and there never was before such an
outlook for grand and sweeping re-
suit.
Last night Mr. Stone secured the
assistance of Mr. Wareham, of James
NIllC, anu ollCSOloi oiiS
meetings will be continued.
Much of the success Of these meet
ings has been due to Miss Mamie
Dredge, a thorough christian and
earnest worker; Miss Viola Hill has
also done much to advance the work.
1t now looks to the writer as if the
entire population would be brought
into truer light and higher life.
Various denominations have at
tempted to reach our people in the
past, but hitherto nothing so far
reaching in it's results has come among
us.
