succeeded in gaining an entrance
The girl, however, was locked in room
which the inmates of the house refused to

that no one occupied such a warm place
in ner affections as he. But the next
evening perhaps his rival, Jack, woull be
seen walking aero the alfalfa pasture
whispering sweet nothings to the fair
companion at his side.
When Jack saw Oliver with the girl his
brow clouded and desire to punch
divers head took possession of him.
When Oliver was favored the other young

than in other places. Those who take it
soon become convinced OF It's rare and
unequaled merit and they are enthusi-

OF this place writes:
AFTER having the measles my father
was left with Inflammation of the bowels,
and the Prescriptions given him did not
do him any good. We read about Hood's
Sarsaparila, and he began taking it and
it cured him, and he has had no bowel

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20-Probablv for
the first time in half a century the Navy
Department opened proposals for building
full-risged sailing ship without steam
power. This craft is wanted for the in
struction OF the cadets at Annapolis in

the old fashion. According to the depart
ment's plans she is to be of IT'S tons dis
placement and her measurements are !:
Length 175 feet. beam q, draft 17.6.
She will spread 10000 square feet OF
canvas and her huil VIII be of yellow pine
shea.hing over steel frames all coppered
The dep plrtment submitted an estimate of
$3.50, 600 for this ship. but Congress cut
the figure just in half, so it was no matter
OF surprise that when the bids were opened
to-day none of the bidders offered to build
the ship complete within the small limit
set by Congress, but submitted plans that
would require large amount of supple
mental work TO complete the vessel after
it is turned over to the Government.
