Il cannot see her yet. I, Pau

the strongly depressed pain and wrath of
weeks in his hOarse voice, and white
haggard face. DO you think a mans
love is a mere toy to be played with and
thrown aside? l have given you mine;
YOU can take or leave it; but you must
make up your mind once for all which
you mean to do, and when. next l see you

And without asking for any reply, he
left her.
She watched him stride away between

Erned his head to look back at her; his
tall figure disappeared round the angle
of the house. and she knew that he had
spoken in deadly earnest.
She must make up her mind now,

would leave her forever Well let him
so! He expected too much of her. The
others had been far more reasonable,
and she had Tilted them all.

1t is said that the reason why dried
fruits, especially California dried
fruits, fail to give the satisfaction that
they should to the economical house
wife is because they are not soaked in
water long enough before cooking to
restore the water extracted from them
by the drying process As it requires
considera BILE time to dry fruits proper
", it cannot be expected that four or
five hours will be sufficient for cooking
them as we'll as for the preliminary
process of soaking. The rules for
cooking such fruits sent out by the
San Jose board of trade say that the
fruits must be soaked in as much cold
water as they will absorb for twenty
four or thirty-six hours. A pound of
fruit is then swelled to three or four
times that quantity, and Is to be SIM
mered in the water in which il was
soaked until tender. 1t should be kept
closely covered while cooking, and also
after removing from the fire until cold.
The sugar should be added few min
utes before the fruit is taken from the
fire, and allowed to boil up once
Though certain quantity of sugar is
given for each fruit, il should. we
think, depend on the taste of the fam
lily where it is cooked, as some persons
like tart and others very sweet fruit

ExiLED ON A LONELY ISLE.
Peter Green Is Monarch of All He Surveys
on Tristan d'Acunha.

Peter Green Is Monarch of All He Surveys
on Tristan d'Acunha.
A correspondent states: One of her
majesty's men-of-war recently paid tle
annual visit to Tristan d'Acunha, a
small volcanic island in the south At
lantic, to bring home letters from the
little community of ninety persons
who live in that isolated spot. These
have just reached England, and it APP
pears from the communications that
Peter Green, the venerab bic chief Of the
island, is still alive, and has again
been instrumental in saving the lives
of shipwrecked crews. The old mans
record of life saving on this lonely
islet is probably unique. The govern
ment of King Humbert has sent Mr..
Green handsome silver medal and
diploma, together with a sum of forty
pounds to divide among his people, in
recognition of the gallantry displayed
by them in rescuing the crew of an
Italian vessel which was wrecked on
the rocky shore of Tristan. The pres
ident of the United States had previ-
ously sent the sturdy old hero a chro-
appreciation of similar noble action
in the case of an American vessel
Green, by reason of his protracted resi-
dence at Tristan. has become quite att
tached to the island and now expresses
his intention of ending his days there.
1t is some sixty years since he saw any
of his relatives. He has latterly be
come vested with the duty of solemn
izing marriages, and on one memorable
day "spliced" no fewer than five
couples-two of them natives of Iris
tan. two of them belonging to Italy,
and one couple from England. The
aged chieftain records with satisfac.
tion visit to Tristan d'Acunha from
the governor of st. Helena, who was
on his way to that island. and states
that the latter was successful in put
ting to rights" his clock, which had
stopped for a long time. At the urgent

There is one medicine which every
family should be provided with. We
refer to Chamberlain's Pain Balm.
When it is kept at hand the severe pain
of burn or scald may be promptly re-
lieved and the sore healed in much less
time than when medicine has TO be
sent for. A sprain may be promptly
treated before Inflammation sets in,
which insures cure in about one-third
the time otherwise required. Cuts and
bruises should receive immediate at
tention before the parts become swol-
len, and when Chamberlain's Pain Balm
is applied it will heal them without mat
ter being formed, and without leaving
a scar. A sore throat may be cured in
one night. A piece Of flannel dampened
with this liniment and bound on over
the seat Of pain, will cure lame back
or pain in the side or chest in twenty
four hours. 1t is the most valuable
however, for rheumatism. Persons af-
ficted with this disease will be de-
lighted with the prompt relief from
pain which ii affords, and it can be de-
pended upon to effect a complete cure.

College Women Do Not Crave Public Life.

College Women Do Not Crave Public Life.
If it be asked why college women
marry less than others, it may very
safely be answered, to begin with, that
it is not because they crave a more ex-
citing and public life; for the majority
of them are school-teachers. In the
register Of the association, address
after address is at some school; nearly
sixty-five per cent of the California
branch are teachers The association
includes but thirty -four physicians,
and a half-dozen lawyers, preachers
and journalists A few members are
librarians, or employees of some scien-
tific staff; very few are in independ.
emit business. The women that write
striking books, that lead in public
movements, that address great audi
ences. that explore and venture, are
rarely among them The conspicuous
exceptions--notably Lucy Stone and
Frances Willard-were among the
earliest graduates; the present type of
college woman is conservative, retir-
ing, and more apt to disappoint expec-
tation by differing too little than too
much from other respectable, conven-
tional folk-exactly as college men do.
1t is probable that in the very general
employment of college women as
teachers in girls schools lies one eff
fective cause of celibacy. There is no
station in life (save that of a NUM- SO
inimical to marriage as that of resi-
dent teacher in a girls school Mill,
