Ethel seized his arm imploringly

half stiAed with the smoke. This

But Cecil broke from her fiercely,
with wild light in his big blue
eyes, and shouting aloud, lathe treas
ure, the TREASURED" leaped with awful
energy into the very center of the
seething fiery abyss. Ethel fell,
fainting with terror and choked by
the flames, on to the burning floor of
the third story. The firemen, watch
ing from below, declared next day
that that crazy mailman must have
have died stifed before he touched
the heap of white hot ruins in the

insensible or dead with asphyxia full
ten minutes before the flames swept
past the spot where her lifeless body
was lying immovable.

A Jubilee Gift for the Queen.

There are various stories anent the
raising of money by Americans for a
Jubilee gift for the Queen of England,
but all of them sound apocryphal. One
recent tale of this sort discusses pro
position said to be under consideration
at Newport to build a summer home
there for the British ambassador. The
proposal in it's present nebulous state
seems to combine some Jubilee COM
memoration with a praiseworthy inten-
ton of increasing the value of real es-
tate. The active promoters are said to
be Englishmen who live in America,
but cooperation is looked for from
Americans whose daughters have mar
ried in England. 1t has been suggested
that it the scheme should go through
and the house be built, the Prince of
Wales might run over in his yacht and
go ashore to visit the embassy.
But the plan, if there ever was any
dream Of such plan, won't be carried
out. If number of British subjects
living In this country were disposed to
make such gift to the British govern.
ment they might doit. no doubt. without
improperly; but they are pretty hard
headed people, and not at all hysterical
in their loyalty. and if they did make a
Jubilee present they would probably
put it aboard British steamer and send
it over to the Queen.
tits possible that there are American
born geese enough in America to buy a
Newport house for the British embassy,
but it is certain that they would not
have the hardihood to group themselves
on a subscription list where they could
be counted. And finally, the British
ambassador is not in the least likely to
lend himself to the promotion of real
estate speculation.-Harper's Weekly.

Hygiene of the Complexion.

Exercise in the open air is one of the
things necessary to all those who would
have fine compilations, but this alone is
not sufficient. Air is good, but we can
not live on air alone. II the diet and
digestion are bad the complexion will
suffer, no matter how much fresh air is
taken. In modern times dermatologiste,
have found it necessary to prescribe a
suitable diet for their patients with dis
ease of the skin. One of the articles ex-
perience has found useful for the COM
plexion is fruit. The juices of fruit and
it's laxative nature help to keep the sys-
tenn clean internally and prevent the &C.
cumulation of WORKOUT matter which,
lodging" in the skin, gives it an I'M
wholesome appearance.
Some fruits are highly nourishing,
while others are appetizing, and nearly
all are purifying. Grapes and apples are
among the most nutritious of fruits;
grapes especially are easily digested and
usually agree with even the most deli
cate stomach.
Raw or baked apples with cream are
excellent to most persons with normal
stomachs. Ripe peaches in their season
are good and easy of digestion. Oranges,
lines and lemons are rich in acids and of
value in improving the complexion.
In eating fruit do not swallow it un-
masticated, nor the large seeds or the
skins. Generally it is better to take
fruit in the morning. Juicy fruit often
agrees best when taken two or three
hours after breakfast as drink. Some
times if eaten with potatoes or vegeta-
bles it produces fatulence because it
has to lie in the stomach till these ar
ticles are igested.-JournaI of Hy-
Oiene.

STOCK,

When fed intelligently milk is one Of
the most important elements of well
balanced ration for all young stock. 1t
makes excellent calves and colts when

Europe sold US her best breeds Of
sheep and cattle at fancy prices, and now
clamors for protection against our cheap
beef. We offer it the best which sells
in it's markets-and that is just what we
raise it for.
We can not have implicit confidence
in the efficiency of good breeding ami
mails, especially Of bucks, for we must
not disregard their ancestry. Heredit-
airy defects may show up.
Scientific authority now acknowledges
what practical farmers said long ago
that corn cobs have a feeding value
when ground with corn. The farmers
were right. but could not tell why.
A strand of barbed wire on top the

ruly cattle and horses better than an ad.
ditioual board or rail, even if it does not
make much show.

How "a Mixed College is Worked.

The Rev. H. r. Haweis writes in his
Travel and Talk: SAT Cornell Univer-
sity. founded by private benefaetion,
young men and girls receive joint edu-
cation. There are no restrictions on
their terms of association; they can walk
and talk and sing together, and sit where
they like in hall or class-only the sword
of Damocles is over them all, and they
know it; breath of suspicion. sign Of
real irregularity, and off the they are
packed without explanation and without
delay, and there is no appeal. At the
University there is perfect feedom of
thought. There are no religious tests;
no one need go to church. But as all
forms are tolerated, it would be rather
difficult for any one member to be in
active opposition to all, nor would it be
much matter if he were-except to him
self. The effect of this laxity and ap-
parent official indifference to orthodoxy
is Just the reverse of what might have
been anticipated. No doubt there is re-
ligious indifference-that is everywhere
but there is little religious bitterness.
for as every sect has it's turn in the Uni
versitY pulpit, no one has a right to
complain"

1t pays to raise ones own calves if we

Kindness is an important item of the
stock in trade on the dairy farm. as it is
everywhere else.
A dairy animal, if breeding, should be
kept in good condition. and be provided
with sufficient nutrition for the develop.
ment of her offspring. IL giving milk,
the supply of food should contemplate
the process of The secretion of milk.
1t is most foolish and absurd prac-
tice to stint an animal in food or water.
There is no time from the birth of COW
until she is disposed of that starvation
will pay.
Owners of fancy stock who are worth
a mint of money" usually do things
about right. 1t is in the herds of ordin-
airy bred cattle where injury is more apt
to be shown from course of semi-star-
walton. Think about it.

CHAPTER VIII.

In the County Pauper Lunatic
Asylum for Devon there was one
quiet impassive patient, who was al
ways pointed out to horror-loving
visitors, because he had once been
gentleman, and had strange ro-
nance hanging to him still, even in
that dreary refuge of the destitute
insane. The lady whom he had loved
and robbed-all for her own good
had followed him down from London
to Devonshire; and she and her aunt
kept small school, after some strug-
Cling fashion in the town close by,
where many kind hearted squires of
the neighborhood sent their little
girls, while they wers still very little,
for the sake of charity, and for pity
of the sad, sad story. One day a
week there was whole holiday
Wednesday it was-for that was Wis
iting day at the County Asylum; and
then Ethel Sutherland, dressed in
deep mourning, walked round with
her aunt to the gloomy gateway at
ten o'clock, and sat as long as she
was allowed with the faded image of
Cecil Milford, holding his listless
hand clasped hard in her pale white
fingers, and looking with sad, eager
anxious eyes for any CLEAN of pass
ing recognition in his. Alas, the
CLEAN never came (perhaps it was
better SOY, Cecil Milford looked al
ways straight before him at the blank
whitewashed walls, and saw nothing,
heard nothing, thought of nothing.
from weeks end to weeks end.
Ethel had forgiven him all; what
will not loving woman forgive9 Nay,
more, had found excuses and pallia-
tions for him which quite CLOSED
over his crime and his folly. He
must have been losing his reason
long before he ever went to Jamaica,
