THEIR OWN MIXTURES.
Smokers Who Have Tobacco Compound
,I
Go be Continued.)

Smokers Who Have Tobacco Compound
ed to Suit Their Tastes.
The young and inexperienced are
ever ready to smile incredulously at
the seasoned smoker who offers his
tobacco pouch with the remark. Try
some OF my own mixture" In some
cases my own mixture" may really
be only the smokers own" in the
sense that he has paid for a few
ounces of it, but in spite of the copy
righted and much-advertised special
mixtures in these latter days, it seems
from what one Of the most popular
downtown tobacconists says, that the
habit of buying ones own exclusive
mixture" is not so extinct as might
be supposed, says the New York Trib
une. Here is a list of the special
mixtures we make" says this authori-
ty, taking from a corner a large card.
you see, there are about fifty of them
on this card. Each mixture is noted
down, all the ingredients and the pro-
portions in which they are to be used,
and over each one is the name of the
customer who first ordered it. The
way Of it is that a smoker makes his
experiments on different combinations
of tobacco until he hits upon some
thing which just suits him. Some
times he buys the ingredients and
mixes them himself, but people have
so much to do nowadays that more
often they tell us what they want and
we do the mixing. 1t takes weeks
sometimes for d customer to get to
just the thing he is aiming at, and,
of course, it is all guesswork in the
meantime. But you might be surprised
to know how long a man will so on
using the same mixture, once he has
found out what suits him. This first
name on the list does not belong to
the mixture we have been making the
longest; it comes first because the
list is alphabetically arranged, but
that recipe has been standing here for
ten years to my knowledge. 1t was
first ordered by an Englishman; his
name still goes with it and he is still
using it, but scores of other people
| also use it who have never heard OF
| him. So, you see, it is possible for a
man to be using another mans par
ticular mixture and go on using it for
years, thinking it his own exclusive
mixture all the time. The way some
of these mixtures gain popularity
shows that it isn't quite exactly true
that there are as many different tastes
! as tongues, for sometimes what eX-
actly suits one man seems exactly to
suit a hundred others. When we find
mixture becoming widely popular
we sometimes make it up in quantities,
but only rarely. And that, 1 suppose,
is how new mixtures get put on the
market"

Thirtoon at Dinner.

Here is nice, creepy story told by
the son of Sir John Millais, says the
New York Commercial Advertiser.
There was a dinner party at the Mil
lais house, and when all were seated
a lady tremuously observed that there
were thirteen at table. The painter
asked his son to dine in another room,
and he did so. When dinner was over,
no one seemed anxious to be the first
to rise, so Matthew Arnold, who was
one of the guests, suggested that he
and two stalwart undergraduates
should get up simultaneously. The
three men did so. Within year each
of them was dead-Arnold by heart
disease, one Of the lads by suicide, the
other by drowning. But why did not
fate seize upon Mr. Millais, who left
the table first, and by all the rules of
superstition should have paid the for
felt with his life? Perhaps he was
spared because of his amiability in
leaving the table to please the worthy
goose who called attention to the risk
they were all running.

He said the boy insisted upon being
one Of the crew of the Black Cat
"But it is certain that Torrevo lied,
for no one but Horizons nephew could
have written that letter."
'"rrue. Stay! The first time the boy
came to Black Cat Bay, Torrevo beat
him. This time he dia no 1t may

ut was the same boy. Torrevo is
no doubt playing a deep game. think

Black Cat happened to be near when
! threw the boy overheard, and picked
him up. He tolc Torrevo who he was
and Torrevo agreed to help him. OF
course, knowing our power, Torrevo
would not dare do anything while that
power existed. 1t was agreed between
them to have the cub remain with Tor
revo till an opportunity arose to warn
Horton what was going on. This would
place Torrevo in the light of being true
to Horton and the government, and il
we failed, he would not be punished
He would be rewarded for his aid.
This is clear enough to me. 1t was a
put UP job"
But how could it be? Torrevo did

why, since it became known-or
supposed, as this indicates-that Rob
Cleverdale was lost overheard and
drowned, old Horton has been so
broken in spirits that he can scarcely
attend to business. He had to have
someone near him whom he could
trust-and that someone was myself.
More and more have l worked into his
confidence. OF late he has not been
feeling we'll, and l have attended to
all his correspondence. In the last
mail yesterday this letter came. 1

OF course l said nothing to Horton
about it, but came directly here to
find that cub and finish him. Bat now,
with the same stupidity that has
marked your course in the matter from
the first, you have let him escape"
Perhaps no harm has been done.
You got the letter and no one else has
seen it,"
But il he sent one to Horton, why
not to the president or anyone else?"
asked Starne.
Il don't think so. He wrote that to
his uncle to bring him to the rescue.
No, l think we are still safe. l was
blind, that l admit. But Torrevo
swore he was his nephew. Torrevo,
then, must be a traitor"

CHAPTER XII.

When his task was finished Rob
was very nervous. He did not know
how these letters were going to reach
the post. There was no station near.
Elvin came riding in-he had been
to Buenos Ayres-about supper time,
and came in where Rob was, still
wearing his high boots and carrying
his whip. Rob shuddered as he thought
of what that whip would do if Elvin
discovered the letter to his uncle.
"Finished?" asked the Englishman,
looking at the neat rows OF letters Rob
had arranged.
Yes, sir"
Elvin took up some of the last ones,
and looked them over He nodded,
and went to his own room. He had
not touched the letters among which
was hidden the one to David Horton.
Now, if it only gets into the post
safely" said Rob to himself. But
how is it going to be done?"
No more was said about the letters
that night, and Rob did not dare put
his plan to escape into execution. He

safely that he resolved to remain an
other day and watch events. And he
knew that if he escaped before the let
ters were mailed Elvin would suspect
something and examine them all. SO
he slept that night again in the little
room of the office.
The next morning at breakfast Ell
win called man who was working in
the stables. He was q short, ugly fell
low, almost black.
"Govino," said Elvin, you see those
letters in there on the desk?"
ME see plenty" he said. Many
letters"
Saddle a horse and ride to Dolores.
Go TO the postofTlce and see Negora.
Negora is with us, and will send the
letters without allowing the fact to
become known. Do you understand"
Govino went out and saddled a
horse, and then came in and got the
letters. Rob breathed freely when he
saw the man ride off, for even if he
did read the names on the envelopes,
it was not likely that he would know
that Horton was not to receive one.
And perhaps he could not read any
thing.
Elvin remained all that day around

CHAPTER XIII.

For once in his life, Richard Elvin
was staggered.
He's gone!" yelled Lemuel Starne.
The elder man made no answer.
Hes gone!" shouted Starne again.
Don't you see what a fool you've
been?"
Richard Elvin was at all times quick
to resent a taunt.
Fool" he echoed. "Why have
been a fool? The boy may be outside"
"Yes-a good way outside" replied
Starne, in disgust.
well, what do you mean, anyhow?
You come here like a believing bull,
rush around to stab people, and howl
at me for being fool. What have you
learned?'
With a sneer of bitterness too deep
for words Starne drew folded letter
from his pocket.
Read that" he said.
It was Rob's letter to his uncle. With
trembling fingers Elvin held it, and
read it through. He returned it to
Starne without a word.
why don't you speak?" demanded
the son. How do you feel, now that
your foolishness has upset the whole
scheme?"
But has it?" asked Elvin. Il GER

the place, and Rob found no oppor-
tunity to get away. He feared every
moment that Lemuel Starne would re-
turn and recognize him. And now,
when there was such hope of rescue,
he did not want Starne to know who
he was-and to be killed when every
thing was going along so well. He
was glad when night came and he re-
tired to his room. 1t was a warm
night, and while his door was open
and the lights still burning, and while
Richard Elvin sat just outside smok-
ing, he opened his window. Elvin
heard it, but suspected nothing.
Then Rob put out his light, shut his
door and pretended to go to bed.
That night about twelve o'clock the
furious hoof-beats of a rapidly ridden
horse sounded near the house. Some
one leaped from him and Numbered at
the door A moment later Lemuel
Starne, with white face and painting
bosom, stood before the astonished
Richard Elvin.

known a great many remedies for

these affections are the same and
that they are properly called ca
