; Ashby held up n tense forefinger.
Then thrusting his lips close to Nor
gan's ear he formed, rather than ut
tered. the words: "Stopl Put down de
bookl Take somep'n wot won't rattle
and come!"
The bits of steel were already in Ash
by's great pockets. Hastily he tucked
rich reliquary under his left arm,
shifted the lantern to that hand and
caught with his right jeweled crozier
which he balanced like weapon in his
practiced grip. Then, shading his Ian
tern. he stole through the door. The
taller man followed with three or four
vessels from communion service.
As they retraced their steps along
the now silent passages no sound was
heard. Their own footsteps fell so care
fully on the worn old floor that no echo
of them woke the night. They almost
began to think themselves the dupes
of their own guilty terrors, when again
that haunting expectancy smote them
like the soul OF sound; and again il
grew to the agonizing certainty of an
unmktalkable hiss. and louder than be-
fore. And again it died gradually away
into silence.

'.Uncle Toms Cabin"

Standard books are ever welcome when
they come to US in bindings representing
all the embellishments of the art of
bookmaking. Such book is the art
memorial edition of "UncIe Toms
Cabin" published by The Dominion
Company, Chicago, copy of which has
Just come to our desk. This edition of
Harriet Beecher Stoves immortal work
which has drawn from the heart of hu-
manity deeper sympathy for the lowly
and filled the eye with more tears of
compassion as we'll as mirth than any
other book ever published, and which
has had wider sale than any other book
of the century, excels all former editions
in the beauty of its binding, the richness
and number of its illustrations, the quail
ity of paper and clearness of its print.
AS this edition will be sold by subscrip
ton only and at popular price, and as
the publisher has known reputation for
fair dealing and liberality towards
agents, an agency for it in this commun-
ity will mean good business for the one
fortunate enough to secure it. Any
reader interested should write the COM

Electric Bitters.

Electric Bitters is medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gener-
ally needed, when the languid exhausted
feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid
and sluggish and the need of tonic and
alternative is felt. A prompt use of this
medicine has often averted long and per-
haps fatal bilious fevers. No medicine
will act more surely in counteracting and
freeing the system from the malarial poi
son. Headache, indigestion, constipa-
ton, dizziness yield to Electric Bitters.

a nature.

The unexpected has happened. E.
Benjamin Andrews has withdrawn his
resignation of the presidency of Brown
university. While his action will be a
keen disappointment to many, the move
is in effect justifable. His resignation
was called forth by the structures laid
upon him by the board of trustees in ref
erence to his rights of utterance. The
combination of indignant protests from
ocean to ocean compelled the trustees
to reconsider the matter. Another CON-
munication was sent to Andrews which
was virtually back down from their
previous position and which after due
consideration caused Andrews to with
draw his resignation. This ends one of
the most disgracetul Incidents in the
educational history of the country.

seriously injured in the dry dock of Hall
fax by not being properly propped. The
Canadian officials are said to regret the
affair because American critics will
blame them for the blundcr. The real
blame seems to lay with the American
government for not providing sufficient
facilities for docking its naval vessels at
