she added such stings as only wom-
an can invent. He, being fool, could
not hate her. AS soon as the reality
proved itself he began to worship an
ideal Of her which was enshrined in
his heart. People pitied him some
what, but he did not care for either
their sympathy or their jibes.
Suddenly the town was startled-the
stranger and the woman had eloped!
Not that there was any apparent ne
cessity for an elopement, for the peo-
pie thought 1t very desirable match.
But society thought it lovely, and so
romantic, for there was an uncle of
the stranger, SO rumor said, whose
wrath the stranger could not brave
just yet, on penalty of losing million
or SO dollars. For awhile society
talked, and then, firing of it, busted
itself with newer themes-the affairs
of other people. And the fool plodded
along, silently, uncomplainingly, only
there was q tired look in his eyes. and
the lines on his face were deeper, and
he seemed worn and old.
Gradually the truth camo out. Tho
wealthy stranger was simply a soap
drummer who had been laid Off" by
his house for a few months, and who
thought 1t would be a fine joke 10

Lao Industry In Assam u Curious
A report of the assistant director of
agriculture in Assam deals in detail
with the lac industry there. Lac oc-
Ours in its natural state in the various
parts of the forests OF Assam, as we'll
as of Burma, but chiefly in parts Of
the Khasi and Caro- hills, and the ex-
port in recent years has averaged 49,
0Go maunds, or something over 500
tons, but in some of the forests, ow-
ing to the ravages of the Kolaazar
epidemic and depopulation, the pro-
duction Is declining The production
in Manipur is not sufficient for the
local needs. and quantities of the lac
are sent there from the Kubo valley
of Assam. The lac is all sent away
from Assam in the crude form, or
stick lac; shell and button lac are
made, to some extent, but lac dye is
not now prepared anywhere in AS
sam, and lacquer wares are only pro-
duced in two places, 50 that tn4s ence
considerable industry would seem to
be dying out. The black laquer Of
Manipur is really not lac prepara-
ticn at all, but only th- juice OF a
tree sent from the Kubo valley. In
Assam the lac is usually collected
twice year, first in May and June,
and then IL October AID November.
The first is mainly used for seed par
poses, while the second forms the ex-
port. A few days after the collec ON
pieces Of stick lac containing live in
sects are tied on to the branches OF
the trees on which the next crop is
to be grown. The usual plan is to
place the lac in small bamboo baskets
and tie these on the twigs OF the
trees. The insects soon crawl out. and
spread over the young branches, on
which they promptly begin to feed,
and secrete the resin. This Is allowed
to go on for about six months, when
the lac is collected; but IL the secre-
ton has been defective or insufficient
the insects remain undisturbed for an
other six months.-Lordon Times.

Great Service.
Meadville, Pa, Nov. 12.-(SpeciaD-
The Loyalty Of the Members OF the
Brotherhood OF Locomotive Engineers
is prOverbial. A circumstance occur
red in this city some days ago, which
emphasizes this feeling.
Frank j. Zeler. Is Chief Of the
Brotherhood OF Locomotive Engineers
No. 143. He is extremely popular
among his fellow railway men, and
one of the best known Engineers run
ming out of Meadville. When the an
nouncement was made a short time
ago that Frank was pretty sick. 1t
caused a great deal of regret among
the boys. Soon he was missed from
his engine, having had to ''lay Off
on account of his back. A brother OF
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi-
neers, who had been i'll with similar
symptoms, some time before, and who
had been pulled through, called to see
Mr.. Zeller, and in a brotherly way,
took with him box Of Dodd's Kidney
Pills, the Remedy which had cured
him. He advised Mr.. Zeller to try
them, with the result that after seven
boxes had been used, he was entirely
well, and able to work
In an interview Mr.. lei or states:
Il had suffered for four years with
this affection, being often hept awake
at night with pains, and at times un-
able to work. / tried several Of the
advertised remedies, and found that
they did me no earthly good. Finally
a member of our Order, who had been
cured Of Kidney Disease by Dodds
Kidney Pills brought me box, and
asked me to try them. l had little
faith in them, but as a drowning man
grasps at straw to help him. so |
took the Pills. l used seven boxes,
and am today as well and strong a
man as there is in Pennsylvania"
Naturally, Mr.. Zeller feels very
grateful, and his complete recovery
has delighted his many friends. and
none more than the good Brother, who
feels that he was instrumental in saw
ing the life of the Chief.
Dodd's Kidney Pills never fail to
cure Kidney Trouble.

MANY ANNIVERSARIES.
September Has Been Big with Fate for
the People of Malta.

the People of Malta.
The month Of September is full OF
anniversaries Of great interest to the
people of Malta. On Sept. 8, 1865, tho
great siege of Malta was raised, when,
the Turks being completely repulsed,
Europe was saved from the common
ehemy. The third or fourth Sunday
of the month Is always made fete
In honor OF Roger of Normandy, who
liberated the islanders from the Sar-
carens in 1000. History and the exig =
encies Of an isolated position have &C.
customed Malta to invasion. CT all
the enemies that have overrun the is-
land time after time one horde only
was dismissed once never to return.
1t was just ten years ago on the 4th
of this month that the garrison sur
rendered to the British after the IA
nous blockade that lasted two years.
Like Ireland, Malta has no vipers, ana
like the green isle, the flower of th1
world, as the Maltese call their home,
owes It's immunity to its patron saint.
Malta is the island of st. Paul. The
inhabitants delight in pointing out tn!
spot where the saint landed, the grot.
to where he was imprisoned and tbs
exact place where, shaking the viper
from his hand into the fire he tool
no hurt. He then cursed all venom

did not expect more of paradise than
that.
She would have liked to marry a
prince, or millionaire, or something
OF the sort, but, as fate of that kind
was manifestly improbable, she accept
ed the fool, with mental reservations.
w omen generally have mental reser-
vations about matters of the sort. She
was pretty, and in society, and who
knows what may turn up? So, their
engagement was not definite. Besides,
he approved of long engagements.
People ought to know one another
thoroughly before marrying" he had
said. And all the time he went on
loving her, blindly.
The time came when he was to
drain the cup of bitterness to the
There came into her life man from
one of the great cities. Everybody
said he was immensely wealthy, and
upon the strength of this, society re-
ceived him with open arms. However,
nobody knew definitely, every person
had heard it from someone else. He
talked a good deal about his yacht,
and his horses and his summer home
in the Adirondacks. He was hand-
some, and unmarried, and seemed to
greatly fancy her. She was ecstatic
over his attention-he was the incar-
nation of the mental reservation she
made when she accepted the fool, and
she resolved that IL feminine ingenu-
ity could drag him to the altar, he
should tread with her the aisle which
leads thereto.
When the stranger was we'll headed
in that direction, and was being lead
docilly, he administered the coup
de grace to the fool. He was thrown
aside with about as much regret as an
old hat is consigned to the ash barrel.
His unfaltering devotion, his knightly
reverence, his steadfast love all went
for naught, and with that touch Of
fendishness which makes people de-
light in hurting those who love them,

Buffalo, n. Y, July 25.-Fire last
night destroyed the eastern elevator,
which is situated on the island oppo-
site the foot of Washington street. The
elevator and its contents were valued
at $3.50, 600, and are a total loss. The
Waterman reports that half an hour
before the flames were discovered ev-
erything was in good order and there
was no sign of fire. There was no
explosion preceding the fire.
The elevator was owned by the
American Linseed Oil company, which
came into possession of the building
only a few weeks ago. Their oil works
are situated within 100 feet of the
burned elevator, when it was seen that
there was no chance TO save the ele-

Streams of water were played contin-
