A Willing Transgresxor.

Six stories by A. G.. Plympton pub
lished in a volume under the above title.
The title story is novelette, of exceptional
merits in its dizziness of handling a difficult
dramatic situation. The transgressor is a
girl whose passionate love for a man who
became engaged to her only from selfish
motives leads her to set fire to the house
of her cousin, a girl with whom he was
formerly in love She did this when blinded
crime. She finally marries the man she
loved but an estrangement follows, and
the rival whose house she had burned final

and the other stories which make up the
volume possess merit. Cloth, SIPS. Rob-

In this book the author, whose name is
not given describes how, after his sons
death. he fell asleep one evening and how
he passed through the world of dreamland
and saw there most wonderful visions.
Many, long since dead passed before him,
and he saw how the virtuous among them
We're rewarded, and how the wicked were
punished. With much pathos he describes
the mercy shown to those who though
stained with many sins, had yet in them
to the last some spark of divine righteous
ness, and strongly he impresses on us the
truth that in the after life men are ever
rewarded and punished according 10 their
conduct in this world. We have all been
told this before. but few writer's have con-
Neyed the lesson with more force and skill
than does the anonymous author of The

ANOTHER VIEWPOINT.

Look at the case of Mrs Lease from an
other standpoint. Who is this Jane Marsh
who demands full payment from the long
tongued spokesman of Populism? Was she
a poor widow who invested all her savings
in the Lease mortgage? Was she some
hard-worked schoolmarm supporting aged
parents? Mrs. Lease says she is dead, and
in the settlement of the estate the claim
is being pushed. There is no denial of the
fact that Jane Marsh invested 81, 100 in a
mortgage and note executed by Mrs. Lease.
Where is the justice that says that she
must accept 5000 in full payment for the
81 400 due. Mary Ellen presents a beautiful
picture clad in elder down reclining on a
Turkish diVan, hoWlInS for the rights or
the down-trodden common people and at
the same time attempting to rob the estate
of some poor woman in the East.
Take another view. The writer has seen
residences (not far from the business CEN
ter of Wichita) which must have cost 200
twelve feet high. Amy reasonable person
knows that if Aary's property was to-day
worth what she says it Is it would have
brought more than 5000. She would have
plus cash. She thought she was paying a
81, 400 debt with 5000 property, and never
once cared whether she was beating a plu-
tocrat or a pauper. This leads to the re-
mark that some of the worst calamity
howlers have loaned money at from TO .
per cent. per month. They became such
money lenders were wicked and practiced
chicanery upon the same basis.
Eastern people do not realize that in
boom days men would contract for a loan
large enough to more than pay for lot
and build house. Then by appraising that
prospective property at a prospective treb-
led value, a mortgage upon il could be used
to secure the payment Of the money
which purchased and constructed ii. When
houses could be built in this enterprising
manner, towns would have q miraculous
growth. but tenants would only pay rent
until they could get into houses of their
own Houses became more numerous than

Jupiter Pluvius is, to all outward
appearance not in favor of prolong-
ing the yachting season, for he tried
with his might and main yesterday
to put out of the question the con-
test at White Bear for the Island cup
and the other class pennant races
The doughty sailors were not to be
routed thus easily, so, after the boats
and the land about the pavilion had
been thoroughly drenched, they hoist
ed sail and raced again.
The wind was variable and from the
south, blowing fresh and strong and
then dying away to less than five OF
six miles an hour.
There were eleven boats entered
three in each class, except the big
sloops and two of them Aurelia, the
Dean cat, won her race, and the sec
ond and last leg on the cup. Akela
put it all over Tarpon again, beating
her by nearly seven minutes corrected

Mechanical experts are conservative,
and the cycle papers cling faithfully to
the old models, but no amount of argu-
ment overcomes the vague sentiment
that something is about to happen. 1t
is understood that every prominent
manufacturer is experimenting with
some sort of chainless device, and the
holders of the best patents are con-
sidering a mutual protective associa-
ton, which is already referred to as
the chainless trust. It is not unlikely
that next year will be somewhat ex-
detrimental, the chainless wheels SELL
ing at a high price, and their use be-
ing largely confined to riders who af
feet social standing rather than su-
perior skill. Such defects as the chain

overcome and grand boom be made

can get his accident insurance accord

iums differing according to the hazard

Does Advertising Pays

It is generally admitted that the
modern merchant must advertise. IT
one were to ask the average reader or
the G l o b e to name the principal re-
tail establishments of st. Paul, who
doubts but that he would Immediately
call off the names of our large adVer-
tisers and yet perhaps we ought not
to use the word large, but frequent
no. constant" is better still. Probably
the greatest virtue resident In the
policy of advertising lies in the fact
that the steady, regular advertiser is
in continuous touch with the public
that the public is as eager to receive
his advertising news as he to impart
it. This explains why it is a matter
of only a few hours. and sometimes
only a few minutes after the appear
ance of a meritorious advertisement by
q regular advertiser, before he gets his
response in the way of eager and ap-
preciative purchasers.
The chance, occasional advertiser is
constantly at disadvantage in thar
he but just gets a grip on the public
when his heart fails him, or he gets
scared at his advertising bill and he
stops his ad. The result is that he
has to be constaatly building anew. It's
like putting in new foundation every
month"; whereas the regular, persistent
advertiser uses the same foundation
constantly. ne delHOllSilSS lllo PupSI-
structure every day, perhaps, but the
foundation is there constantly, and
needs no rebuilding.
The New England Furniture Sc Car
pet Company is recognized as per-.
Sistent, continuous advertiser Mr..
Harris, president of the company, who
writes all it's advertisements, says that
the papers were hardly on the streets
announcing it's discontinuance of
business sale before customers were in
the store seeking the bargains adver-
tised; and, although the sale has been
running some three weeks, the inter-
est has been sustained, through two
causes One, because the New England
has in the most frank and colloquial
fashion explained the progress and
prospects of the sale in each days
edition of the G o b e since the sale
commenced; while the public, the alert
housekeepers of st. Paul. have been
in a most receptive mood, and have
been as eager to follow the develop
ments of the sale as the New England
has been frank in announcing them.
The lease of the beautiful building
which the New England has occupied
for the last five years is for sale, and
it would certainly seem as if some
bright, alert business man would be
wise enough to purchase it. 1t is
certainly one of the best opportunities
for an enterprising merchant that we
know Of The management of the New
England is exceedingly anxious to close
the store by Sept. Is, and hopes to dis
pose of it's lease before that date; but,
whether it does or not, Sept. Is will
probably see the end of the New Eng
lands direct connection with the
housekeepers of st. Paul.

Many persons literally soak the bearings
