A gay and festive youth who is en-
ployed as n clerk In the Pennsylvania
railroad Office had occasion to go down
to Wilmington one evening last week.
and while there he met girl who i'm
pressed him as being worthy of cultl-
vation. says the Philadelphia Record.
He asked II he might call. and was as
sured that he would be welcome. Il
live In Newcastle" she said But
where in Newcastle?" he insisted.
"oh. anybody can direct you" she re-
piled. I'VE live In great big stone
bouse-the largest house in the town"
He was forced to be satisfied with
that. On Sunday he took run down
to Newcastle, and when he inquired
where the young woman lived the big
jail was pointed out to him. That's
where she lives" said one of the town
boys. Her fathers one OF the jail
ers." The young man took the next
train back.

Sure Cure for Meudicancy Discovered b.
Charity Agent
One of the agents OF Chicago's great
est charitable organization has found
specific remedy for the starvation
ard tho suffering OF the poor in winter
The directing heads of the organiza-
ton have such keen sense of the
humorous that they have forwarded
the report of their agent. in which his
remedy was set forth. to the people
who had requested that a certain case
be Investigated. Some North Side wo-
men became interested in the case of
a man who, in the face OF Ill health
and with the handicap OF large and
growing family OF children, was strug-
Cling to make livelihood. The wo-
men put their hands to their purses
and aided In that way. but that was
not what the man wanted. He wanted
work indoors SO that he could keep his
health and not be laid up every week
or two as the result of exposure. He
was a peddler. and by toiling from
the rising to the setting of the sun he
managed to earn n few cents profit
There was never on any day OF the
year enough of a margin to give the
family three satisfying meail- The
children's clothes were ragged and
there was scant covering at night, not
withstanding the constant toiling OF
the father. The Interested women ap-
pealed to the charitable orgsnizations
to try to secure inside work for the
worthy man that would pay enough TO
give adequate food and shelter TO his
family. An agent was dispatched to
look up the case. His report was turn
ed in and was sent last week to the
charitable North Side women. II con-
tanned this comment and this recipe
for the removal of the poverty ills OF
the peddler. Il have seen Mr. O'Hooli-
han. He is honest, hard working and
worthy. As way out of his troubles
l would suggest that he save enough
in summer TO carry his family through
the winter. Tribune.

An Idaho soldier has had Ave inches
added 10 his height by law. 1t is the
first case of the kind In tho history OF
congress. says the Washington Post.
It seems that w. w. Pefiey went into
the war with Spain us private In the
LIST Idaho Infantry. According to the
records Of the war department. his
height at the time OF his enlistment
was feet 5ss inches. when. as an
actual fact. his height was feet 1855
inches. The missing Ave inches made
lot of trouble for Pefley. His cap
tain wrote a letter to the major. the
major to the colonel. and the colonel
wrote to Senator Shoup. while the sur
geon prepared a solemn affidavit. SEN
ator Shoup framed bill and intro
duced 1t: the committee on pensions
considered 1t, and reported 1t favora-
bly,, and the senate passed It. SO now,
SO far as the senate is concerned. Mr..
Pefey has his five inches added unto
him by due process OF law.

leaving her in Strengthened circum.
stances, and that she had come East
in the hope of obtaining employment
as a teacher or governess. He decid-
ed, however, that her illness was ag-
gravated by some serious mental
trouble, OF the nature of which he
was ignorant.
1t is possible that Mrs. Felton's TO
covery was less rapid and less COM
plete than 1t should have been, all
things considered; at all events. Philip
continued to call on her long after one
would have supposed there was any
need of his professional services. Per-
haps It was because the doctor was but
man after all. and therefore could
not be blind to the fact that his mys-
terious patient was a handsome young
woman with peculiar charm of man
ner; yet greater beauties than Mrs.
ever quickening his pulse. Perhaps
1t was the appealing sadness in her
large dark eyes that attracted him;
perhaps 1t was the unwavering reserve
and dignity of her manners and the
fact that there was not trace of CO.
quetry about her, for the doctor had
horror of coquetry. and until recently
had believed it to be a dominant femi-
nine trait.
The upshot of the matter was that
DR.. Philip Penrose, without having any
certain knowledge of Mrs. Felton's
past life, asked her to be his wife. and
was firmly refused. Pressed for rea-
son, she answered that she did not love
him. To which he calmly replied that
as she was the only woman he ever
would or could love, he intended to
win her affection. and was willing to
wait years, II need be. to attain that
result. Philips determined attitude
forced a more explicit reply from Mrs.
FELTON,. and she finally admitted that
there was an insurmountable obstacle
to their union in that her husband was
not dead but living!
Quivering like a deer under the blow.
Philip began involuntarily piecing to-
gether in his mind certain ideas. the
chief of which was that FELTON, had
been the maiden name of Johns wife.
and on a sudden the awful truth fash
ed upon him. John Carleton-he is
your husband?" he said huskily. For
answer she burst into uncomfortable
weeping. When little calmer she
told her story; of how John had begun
to entertain an unreasonable Jealousy
of her; of how they had quarreled, and
that he had said words to her that her
pride could not brook, and Of how. in
moment of madness. she had gone
away. determined never to live with
him again: of her subsequent repent
ance of her rash act, and of how pride
and shame had kept her from return
ing to him.
Whatever may have been the state
of Philip Penrose's mind that night

The DOCTORS LOYALTY.

Philip Penrose and John Carleton
had been chums since boyhood. Ever
since that memorable day at an early
stage of their school life. when John
Carleton had fought and vanquished
the bully of the class for his cowardly
assault on the new boy" Phil Pen
rose, the two had been the stanchest
Of friends, albeit they were quite un-
like in temperament and disposition.
Philip was quiet, studious. reserved
and somewhat delicate, while John was
big, athletic. impulsive, and, although
naturally bright, impatient of study.
Each found In the other some quality
to admire and emulate. Both youths
fitted for Harvard, and were loyal
chums throughout their university
course. That finished. however. their
paths in life separated. Philip studied
medicine and became a successful
practitioner In his native New Eng
land town. John adopted a business
career, connecting himself with a Chi
cago firm of which his uncle was
member. But their friendship did not
end with their separation. They cor
responded regularly, keeping each
other in touch with their affairs. John
fell in love with the dearest girl in
the world" and married her, but Phil
ip. who for some reason had always
disliked and avoided women, remained
a bachelor-the despair alike OF
maneuvering mammas and scheming
spinsters.
About two years after Johns mar
riage Philip was stunned at receiving
letter from his friend, apprising him
of the fact that his wife had left him
for no other reason than that they had
ouarreled. and that John. in moment
Of temper. had said something for
which he was afterwards sorry. The
shock to Philip was all the greater for
the reason that. up to that moment, he
had believed Johns marriage to be as
ideally happy as any marriage could
possibly be. and the news had the ef-
feet of deepening his constitutional
dislike and distrust for women.
1t was about six months after learn
ing of Johns marital misfortunes that
DR.. Philip Penrose called one day to
attend patient on neighboring
street. 1t proved to be young widow
named Mrs. FELTON,, residing with her
mother. and evidently a newcomer to
the neighborhood. He saw that she
was seriously i'll, and showed marked
symptoms of pneumonia. and also that
she was laboring under strong nervous
excitement. 1t was needless to say
that DR.. Penrose treated her to the best
of his professional skill. and with such
success that by the next day there was
a marked Improvement In her condi-
ton. He found his new patient and
her mother to be extremely reticent
about their affairs. yet during his at
tendance on the former he learned that
she formerly lived In Western city;
that Der husband had died recently.

The Deering Harvester Company of
Chicago has applied to the division
OF forestry for working plan for It's
$4,000 acre-tract OF hardwood timber
in southeastern Missouri. This marks
what is probably the first attempt OF
an American manufacturing establish
ment to employ modern forest meth
DDS in raising hardwood timber for its
own use. The timber owned by the
company consists chiefly Of oak, ash
and hickory, woods especially adapted
to the manufacture of agricultural i'm
plements. The owners intend to re-
move all the less valuable species. such
as cottonwood, gum, honey locust and
cypress, SO as to give the others all
possible advantage for growth. A plan
will be made by which the merchant
able timber may be removed without
injury to the producing power Of the
forest. The division will send experts
to the tract to make the observations
necessary for such plan.
