infinite bewilderment, that the birds
had flown. As il had been expressly
agreed that his fair patient should
remain indoors for awhile, so as to
be spared the temptation afforded
by the spectacle of attractive shop
windows, he was greatly annoyed.
But this was nothing in comparison
with his state of mind when an in
spection of his premises revealed the
painful fact that bank notes to the
amount of nearly f1,000 had also
disappeared, and with them jewelry
and divers objects dart worth quite
6 400. He consoled himself with the
reflection that he would in all prob
ability recover his property at the
residence of the young lady's noble
father, and thither he proceeded in
haste, to find, to his anguish, that the
family in question, which he now be-
held for the first time in the flesh,
had been personated by trio of au-
dacious impostors. Then the poor
doctor took his weary way to the Of
! flee OF the police commissary, with

hunting in every direction for the
thieves, but so far they have failed

Annual Loss of Fertility.

The loss of fertilizer from rains can
not be estimated. The water courses
carry millions of tons of plant foods
to the sea. The Nile alone pours more
than 1000 tons into the Mediterranean
every "a hours. The annual loss from
the earth's soil is greater than the en-
tire deposits of guano. even before
they were exhausted. Unless large
portion of the fertilizer is reclaimed
from the sea time may come wher
the worlds average yield of crops will
be exceedingly low.

on the table. The physician, consid-
erably impressed by all this candor
and by this practical method OF trans
acting business, readily consented to
take the young woman for course
Of treatment into his own house, and
the next day saw her installed there
with a maid provided by her family
in special attendance on her. The
girl was to be cured of her thievish
propensities through the medium Of
hypnotism, will stronger than her
own compelling her to return to hon
est ways. All went well for four or
five days, much to the satisfaction of
the good doctor, who had not missed
single article of his property, and
who firmly believed that his course OF
treatment had been crowned with re-
markable success. When, however,

lustration represents the gap while
the water is low. During flood
everything passes over the top. At
glance some might think water gap
made in this way would not turn
stock, but wish to say that if prop
erly made no stock Of any kind will
attempt going through. The bars or
Stats should be sunk in the bed of the
stream several inches and then spiked
securely to the pole which crosses
the stream. The pole must also be
secured at both ends by means OF
posts or stakes. Should any drift ac-
cumulate on the Stats while the water

TRIO OF IMPOSTORS.
How They Robbed and Fooled a
Confiding Doctor.
A Rather Amusing Case In which
HypnOtism md KIeptomania Play
Important Parts--The Plot
Revealed,

The Paris correspondent of Lon
don paper describes as anything but
enviable the feelings of u worthy doc
tor settled in a very fashionable dis
trict of that city wAo, after attempt
ing the cure of n young woman pro-
fessedly afflicted with kleptomania,
has himself fallen a victim to a clever
but utterly unscrupulous trick. About
week ago he was sitting in his con
presently a man of gentlemanly ap-
pearance and lady of mature age,
accompanied by n pretty and fascin-
ating girl, were ushered in. The male
visitor introduced himself as a mar
qnis dwelling at a certain number in
Il well-known avenue, and said that
! the elderly woman was his wife and
| the beautiful damsel their daughter.
A few polite remarks on general
/ topics were exchanged, and then the
processing marquis drew the physi-
clan into corner, and In low and dis
Greet accents unfolded to him the fol-
lowing tale. His daughter. he eN-
/ planned, was d charming girl. She
was lovely, as he could judge for him
self, accomplished, amiable and when
married she would have very re-
spectacle dowry, as her parents were
well endowed with this worlds goods.
Unfortunately there was dark side
to this otherwise bright picture. Al
though lavishly provided with pocket
money and supplied with everything
that she could possibly desire, the
young woman was confirmed klep-
tomaniac. She could not enter shop
without endeavoring to purloin some
article, and even her friends spoons
and forks were not secure from hel
too enterprising fingers
Then, coming to the point, the 50
called marquis asked the doetoi
whether he would be willing to un
dertake the cure of this very dis
tressing case. He would not b,
daunted by any expense, and in proc
OF this assertion he pulled out :

The Pennsylvania Railroad for some

change has already been made ON some
