held in check with the greatest difficulty.
That there could be another view of
this matter, and that that view could be
held and maintained with passionate in
tensity by persons for whom be had re-
spect, even admiration, was something he
did not dream of until he saw the placid
and gentle Bronson defy and finally
knock down the bullying Morgan.
Then he awoke to realization of the
fact that the size of the world in which
a homeless apprentice in large city
dwelt was, after all, quite small, and
beyond its narrow confnes-outside the
slender limits of boarding house, saloon,
and street corners, with their population
of brawlers-was a much wider and
much more important world, with in
habitants whose ideas and language
were as different as those of another
country.
He pondered over this as he walked
back to his case and resumed work, and,
though he tried to concentrate his mind
on his copy, it ran through and colored
the weft and woof Of his thoughts all
day.

severe case of eczema. [ obtained no relief
from medicines and became very anxious

druggist if he had a medicine that would do
me good. He examined my neck and said if
anything would cure me it was Holds Sarsa-
parila. He advised me to purchase three
bottles, and | did so, and began taking the
medicine. In short time there was de-
cided improvement. and | continued the use

the principal changes, and the ones
which our business people were most
anxious to obtain. The afternoon train
from the county seat now arrives at 432,
instead of ,. o'clock, and the last train
from the upper end is due at 6.57, in

Freeand Water Company will. begin
this week to enlarge the capacity of the
big reservoir at Birvanton. An addi-
tional water depth will be given by in
creasing the height of the walls two
feet. Bricklayers, masons and car
penters will be put to work on the i'm
provement at once, tomorrow probably.
The reservoir will, when this work is

over its present capacity. 1t is SOX6O
feet and will have an average depth of
So feet.
The company does not expect any
scarcity of water during the coming
summer, as the supply is good and
enough can be stored in the reservoir to
fill present needs for days at Il time,
but they intend to keep ahead of the
growth of the town, as in the past, and
thereby prevent water famine. The
steadily increasing population will not
be permitted to reach the limit of the
supply, as the constant improvements
made by the company testify.
