Duty.

Every good deed will find recogni.

Let us do our duty, and, if the reward

aged. The essence of duty is richer
than any reward, and it is vastly bet

Sensitiveness of Fish.

Most fishes are very sensitive to ex-

organs for this sense. The seat OF
greatest sensitiveness is about the
snout, but this sensitiveness in fish
does not appear TO go to the limit by
causing it to feel pain from a wound.

TwENTY-FIFTH ANNIVERSARY AT CON.
So the winter quickly passed, and
spring melted into summer, and then
a growing plan developed In Faiths
mind. She had not been able to crowd
It out Of her "heart thoughts" as she
called any ideas that kept making her
think of other people. Even her rapid
" developing artistic power could not
prevent the silent, increasing, power
full pressure of an idea that she had
also a mission to perform for the good
of people in a certain peculiar way.

right" she kept saying to herself all
summer, and when fall was ushered In
and she could see the frosty mornings
on the prairie and call up in memory
the sound of the prairie chickens out
in the ycornfelds and see the great
stretch of sky that was never possible
in the smoky city, with Its ugly piles
of buildings that shut out sun and air,
then Faith grew really lonesome and
homesick. and one day she resolutely
told Miss Varney that she must go
home for little visit.
81 don't blame you. my dear. Go out
home and breathe some fresh prairie
air and photograph some Kansas ideas
and come back with them, and we will

"but l do know about the prairie air.
And I'm going to get some"
So Faith ran out to the Fultons', said
goodby to them and Francis Raleigh
at the same time and started for home
that day.
She had written home, telling Of her
coming, and when she reached Conrad

how he knew that Faith was coming

was there at that time and that NAL

His church was planning in quiet
way for such an anniversary, and 1t
pleased him much to think that Faith
was to be at home in time and also that
Stanley could be with them.
That was a wonderful homecom-
ing for Faith. The experiences she
had were rehearsed in the family cir
Gle, and there never had been so much
hearty, pure laughter in the parsonage
since 1t was built. In the frosty even
ings they sat around the one open fire
in the parlor, and even Malcom shut

early, talking over matters with Faith
and entering into all her new plans
with the enthusiasm Of boy. Doro-

as she looked at her children and saw
them growing up into sturdy, useful
lives, and in her heart she thanked
the Great Father continually for such
treasures, worth more to her and her
husband than all the gold and silver
in the world.
"I want the boys to go to Phillips
academy next fall" Faith said, with
an air of one possessed Of untold
riches. That's where father gradu-
ated, and it will be fine thing for
them to follow him there"
"Splendid" exclaimed Malcom. "I've
always dreamed it would be So"
"'Art is long," continued Faith,

THE CORN MARKET.
GEORGE II. PHILLIPS AND PRICES
IN CHICAGO.
(By Telegraph 10 Vlrginian. Prot.A

(By Telegraph to Virginian- Pilot.)
Chicago, Nov. 26-Corn, for Novem-
Der delivery. sold to-day on the board
OF trade at 80 cents per bushel-the
highest price since 1894. when. owing
TO protracted drought. the market adj
vanced close to the sitx cent mark.
Since that time the course cereal has
Soid almost down to 20 cents per
bushel.
That there are vast quantities of
corn In the country is we'll known, but
George III. Phillips, a member Of the
Chlcaso board, taking advantage CT the
laS-end of protracted bull deal on the
local exchange, which had resulted in
the depletion of the contract stocks of
corn in Chicago, gradually picked up
all oHeringS, and to-day apparently
showed that he has effected the most
perfect corner" in the recent history
OF the board. Practically no contract
corn is coming to market.
Phillips did little to advance the
market to-day-it advanced on the eff
forts of shorts to cover. When fifty
cents was bid Phillips sold 1000
bushels or SO and checked the advance.
The market opened 1 cents higher
than Saturday. at 46 cents; rose to so
and closed at 40. net gain of cents.
PHILLIPS PRAISED.
Whenever the clamorous shorts"
howled up the price in the face Of I'M
responsive takers, he pushed to the
front of the line and let out more corn.
Some of the dealers thought the juve-
nile-looking Spectator was in straits
and was running TO wind up his string.
They jumped on the market and tried
to sell corn at 47Hc. Phillips turned
instantly from seller to buyer-from
bear to bull-and snapped up every
man who was Offering to shade the
price that he was making. The decline
stopped at once. Phillips showed TO
the corn pit that he was it's master;
that he could regulate it at will. Tie
fellows who tried to get some of the
corn kings money in the deluson that
he was weakening are now wondering
where they will get off on Friday.
Phillips conduct to-day won him
great praise.
Few men have been able to keep n
cool head under like circumstances.
He parted with SOC, 900 bushels, about
one-tcnth of his holdings He bought
100000 when the bears tried to drag
him off his pedestal. He made $50, OO0
Apparently he is going to keep the set
Ting price about so cents. If the shorts
are meditatinE coup on the last day
they may wake up to find that Phil
lips has cloed out his line. He claims
now that he cannot be squeezed what
ever may happen. AS long as he keeps
on sellin gmore than he buys and holds
the market down to 80 cents he Is
seemingly too nimble to be crowded off
the market with his corner Other
spectators have been broken by buy
ing at big price in order to hold up
the market and playing their funds on
margins
