GooD-BY.

Good-by dear eyes; a little while
You lit the darkness Of my days;
Now life is naught, and nothing
stays;
Good-by, dear eyes ard tender smile
And loving ways.
Good-by, dear hands; and now I press
For the last time your wilderness
slim,
And IL my eyes with tears are dim,
You will not love them, dear, the less
For tears in them.
Good-by, dear lips, where death has
set
His kiss colder one than thine;
But, in your dwelling place divine,
Shall you, dear love. one hour forget
This kiss Of mine?

New Gloves and Parasols.

White parasols are shown in great
draped, others of plain white faille,
with white sticks of enamelled wood.
Striped parasols in black and white
are admired by women of quiet taste.
Chine silk parasols, in all-over designs
of blurred roses on white or delicately
tinted grounds, are commended for
wearing with dark crepon gowns, and
there are others with merely chine
border around white, pink or lilac
parasol.
Light-colored gloves of glace kid will
remain in favor throughout the sprnig
and summer. With afternoon toilets
most delicate pearl tints are worn
with stitching of black or self color
as one fancies. These are in the Eng
lish style with close wrists fastened
by four buttons. White gloves are
worn in the evening on all occasions,
from the theater to the most elaborate
entertainment. For morning wear are
heavier kid gloves of yellowish tan in
preference to the red or cedar browns
worn during the winter. Undressed
kid or Suede gloves are still preferred
by many, especially for summer, be-
cause they are cooler than those Of
the thicker dressed kid. These come
in mousquetaire styles of great length
to meet elbow sleeves, and are of very
light tan and pearl gray shades. White
mousquetaire gloves will be worn with
summer gowns in day and evening
alike. All gloves are now worn easy
fitting, tight gloves being considered
distinctly bad style.-Harper's Bazaar.

the precise spot have forgotten.
"Under the shed-in hole beneath
the third log Of wood"
"The third-bene,th the third piece
of wood! You are certain you are not
mistsken?' Emmeline eagerly asked.
"And the bank-notes are there, too!'
mumbled Nicksey, more than half
asleep "Half of them I shall take;
J the other half between you and your
friend what's-his-name? That's fair,
because l did the work, you know"
Emmeline hastily lighted a second
candle. and with it she quilted the
room, and commenced to descend the
stairs.
The letters which Nicksey had stolen
from Mrs. CheStertOn We're relied on
by her pursuers to furnish evidence
which would enable them to accuse
her before the world; and those let
terS would. TOO, perhaps, reveal who
had been the two male assassins Of
One Tree Square.
In a word those letters We're Emme-
lines only hope Of justice for her poor
fathers memory.
She trembled. now. with eager and
glad anticipation. and not with fear.
In her excitement now even Barring
ton was forgotten: his most strange
and unaccounted-for absence, had ceas-
ed to be a terror to her.
Having descended. Emmeline with
some difficulty forced back the rusty
bolts Of the door which opened into
the back yard.
This yard which had eveidently been
intended for. and had no doubt. at
some time or other, been formed into
garden. was enclosed by low walls,
which We're now half in ruins. and
with here and there gaps in Them of
which Mr.. Ncksey had more than
once awaited himself when his house
had been beset, and a necessity had
arisen for his escape, if he had no
wish to run the risk of being hanged.
This back yard was the width only
of the house. but it's length was some
what considerable. as Emmeline dis
covered since she had to proceed to it's
very end before reaching the shed
from which she now confidently ex-
pected to obtain treasure which she
would hug to her heart more doatingly
than ever miser embraced his money

A portion only of the framework
shed remained. ard small patches only
Of it's matched roof We're left here
and there; the most extensive piece Of
covering being above the corner in
which lay. almost in & row, about q
dozen small logs Of wood.

most sheltered spot. and. full Of hope,
hurriedly commenced her search.

CHAPTER XIII,
A Fatal Recognition.

Nicksey dozed Off again in his chair
beside the fire, tlattering himself that
he was Il very noble and upright in
dividl al
He had promised to share equally
with harrington and the "young 'un.;'
and to give them a third each when
he had the whole of the plumber in
his possession. was far nearer APP
proach to honest dealing than he had
ever before attained.
Scarcely. however, had he fallen to
sleep when ne was suddenly awake
again, and glaring around the room.
Emmeline had not returned. IS
A mortal fear came over Nicksey
that the young 'un'' had bolted with
all the swag!
And vowing the destruction Of EN-
incline if again he got her within his
reach, and, nearly sobered by his fears,
he made his way to the room at the
back of the house, which was on a
level with that which he inhabited.
and which looked out upon the yard
to which Emmeline had gone in search
of the money and the letters.
Looking from the window, his mind
was somewhat relieved when he dis
tinguished the glimmer of a candle in
the shed. and was made more comfor-
table when, in answer to his half
whispered:
'Halloa, young 'un!'

A Trolley ExDress.

1t is now war to the death between
the steam and the electric railroads.
The bid of the latter for popularity
will be favorably Influenced by the in
PRODUCTION of new feature in their
service, trolley express. Arrange
ments are now being made on many
ilnes to run through cars to points at
which there is the greatest traffic, and
TO save the passenger the inconyeni-
ence of changing cars whereby it ia
possible to do SO. Where the steam
lines and the electric lines parallel
each other, the effect of this express

them Will be more apparent, and 1t ID

Every day Jack Dallas inquired at

Dorothy could hardly wait for his

saying something merry to old Per-

in his haste to reach her, upset ev-

"Wish me luck. Dorothy" he cried.
"To-day have entered the firm of DIAL

"Jack. do say something" She was
becoming hysterical.
"My dearest, the question is can you
care for me? God knows how I love

Two arms steal around his neck.
A kiss, quick, but sure, he feels upon
his forehead, and the sweetest voice
in the world says:
"Jack, it was love versus ambition,
and love won."

A Few Hints to Girls on the Treat
ment of the Hair.

A girls hair is one Of her points of
beauty, and it should never be neg
lected. Regular steady brushing of
the hair with a clean brush fifty
strokes before going to bed at night,
twenty-five in the morning when
dressing, will keep the hair thick,
smooth, soft and lovely. Once month
at least the tips Of the hair should be
clipped off, just the merest tip-ends at
the edges, and once a month the head
should be carefully washed with tepid
water and soap, thoroughly rubbed
and we'll dried. If mamma has time
to take this sort of care of her daugh-
ter's hair, she will be repaid by see
ing rich and flowing tresses or sisters
may easily do it for one another. Do
not cut your hair in bangs. 1t is very
much prettier simply parted and
combed back plainly, then braided in
one or two long tails and tied with q
ribbon. Avoid essences, oils and pig
ments; the hair needs only cleanliness
and much brushing. Keep your hair
brush clean by frequently dipping it
into bath Of hot water and ammonia
and drying it in the sun. Everything
used in treating the hair must be
scrupulously neat.
1t is nice for a girl to have dainty
toilet articles if she can. Silver, china
and ivory are beautiful on ones dress
ing table, but if one has not these she
can still keep everything that belongs
to her in perfect order if she will only
take pains, and order is itself beauty.

Royal Baking Powder is the purest
and highest in strength of any of the
baking powders, and hence makes
more, finer and better food. These
are the official facts as set forth by
the U. s. Government and the various
State Chemists reports. OF course
great efforts will be made by those
interested in the sale of the cheaper
made, alum powders, to continue their
sale where consumers have made up
their minds to have the Royal and call
for it at their grocers. The Royal
Powder is so much superior to all the
other preparations for quick raising.
that it will amply repay housekeepers
to use the necessary persistency to
procure it in spite of all objections.
