THIS is HOW SHE CAME TO NE.

This is how she came to me
With tremulous throbbing Of her throat,
With lips that shook uncertainty
And breast that luttered like a bird,
With eyes where love was all afioat
And voice the sweetest ever heard,
In all the world were only we,
And this is how she came to me.
This is how she went away
With still hands folded on her breast,
So like a little child might pray,
With silent lips laid close and sweet
And smiling to me through her rest,
White lilies laid about her feet,
The promise of further day,
And this is how she went away.

Chicago has a bug plague, and
headed toward New York. The fellow
that HIS been fostering our western
Cousins is described as a big brown
fellow. an inch long, with a many
jointed back and six legs. What
most disturbs the dweIlers in
the western metropolis, however
is that they do not know what
the bug is. The scientists tell them
it is a true bug, which they well know;
that it is of that division of the ami
NAL kingdom known as anthropoda,
which they might haveguessed; that
it is of the insect class, which every
body suspected; that it is hemimeta-
bOla, which only means "of incOm-
plete metamorphosis," and that it
belongs to the order of hemiptera.
But there are fifty thousand hemip-
terra, and which one it is the Chica-
goans do not know, so they have
dubbed their bug simply "Mr. Hem
iptera."

Don't Buy Old stock

Never buy old stock, especially
horses. even for a song. They are
usue lily worthless. One out OF ten,
perhaps, is worth his feed, but not
more There is NJ sale for him and
YOU must let him die on your hands.
If YOU make him pull through one
cropping season you are none the
better off, as you must buy another
and be out his price and feed. A
young horse, il he does not increase
in value, holds his own and may he
sold ut cost or few dollars advance
and the years work is free. Old COWS
are just as poor property if you are
not prepared to feed them cotton
seed bulls, meal and chops to fatten
and sell to he butcher. But you
must buy them for a song, because it
takes more time aud feed for an old
than young COW to fatten.

AS soon as John Neumis, Of Scran-
ton street. learned that his parents
were worried about his continued alb
sence from home. he boarded the
Black Diamond express at Sayre and
reached this city shortly after the
telegram came announcing his safety.
The boy did not have the necessary
fare to ride on the Black Diamond.
but that fact did not worry him in
the least.
Instead of riding inside the obser~
walton car, the dusky traveller climbed
on top of the car, and stretched him
self out on the roof. During the jour
ncy the flying cindcrs from the loco
motive played tattoo on his head, face
and hands. and he narrowly escaped
falling off the train.
ClnginE for dear life to the roof of
the car the boy rode the entire dis
tance from Sayre to Pittston without
being detected, and calmly slid down
from his unenviable position when the
train reached the Junction. He hur-
ried to his home and received a warm
greeting from his relatives, and is
now looking for the man who started
the story that he was drowned.

DUN's REVIEW OF TRADE.
Producers and Consumers Are Get
ting Together

New York, July 27.-R. G.. Dun &
Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade tomor-
row will say:
Speculative activity in raw mater
ials is not present to discourage new
business Producers and consumers
are getting together in more than one
direction, although midsummer inaC-
tivity is emphasized by disturbed for
eign relations and hesitation always
attending national political cam
paigr.
A stop to the decline in wool brought
many manufacturers into the market
asking terms. Holders who have had
difficulty in storing were the chief
sellers. Cotton improved slightly and
more business occurred in cotton goods.
Similarly in iron the disposition
which has resulted in hesitation in
other industries the tone is better and
in the Pittsburg district the mills have
booked a line of fair orders lin bars
and plates. Structural and bridge ma
terials are better taken. The refusal
of the amalgamated association to al
low a change in the wage scale adopt
ed in May has led to strikes at numer-
Gus bar mills, and the Republic COM
pany is to dismantle some plants TO
secure concentration, but non-union
capacity will prevent serious scarcity.
Further business in bar shows that
agricultural implement makers are
more active. Grey forge has fallen to
$l5 at Pittsburg, and Bessemer steel
billets sold at $19. With the unCer-
talnty of the conference of steel COM
panies at Chicago removed, buyers
may proceed with less anxiety. En-
port orders advanced e!ectrolytic cop
per from 1914 to 16}s cent in large
| lots.
1t was not surprising that wheat de-
clined still further this week for the
price had been held far above the
quotation ruling at this date in 1899
and crop conditions are so generally
| satisfactory as to assure an abundance
| for all home requirements and the
usual amount for export High prices
| have curtailed foreign buying to some
| extent and in the four weeks Atlantic
| exports of wheat. including flour, have
| been only 7,266,436 bushels, against s.
! 430, 49, last year.
| The shipments of corn make a more
satisfactory comparison, in four weeks
amounting to 12,720, 435 bushels, against
| 1l,SSl, AS year ago.
Failures for the week were 23l in
