An excellent woman. whose married
sons and daughters have a way Of fit
ting off every summer to seashore or
mountains, leaving their offspring IN
her loving care, was delicately ap-
preached by one of them as to her
plans for the coming season.
II suppose you will open the cottage
as usual, won't you, mother? The chill
dren so enjoy being with you!"'

Uniform Envelopes Fo7 Germany.

The German Postoffice Department is
agitating the question of uniformity in the
size, color and shape of envelopes, and
will, it is said, introduce bill in the
Reichstag which will forbid the sending OF
letters through the mails inclosed in any
other envelope than that prescribed by the
Government. The bill has been provoked ae
by the obstacles which the recent HOOD OF
an endless variety of envelopes has put in
the way Of rapid delivery; This multiple

Germany for long time.

CHAPTER Nv.
TIE BARoS IS SATISFIED.


With another quick movement the
American withdraws his sword anC
steps back a pace to avoid any pun
ishment, but the baron is in no con
dition to deal such. He sinks back.
and only that the Frenct captain
springs forward. and catches the
baron in his arms he must fall in o
heap.
There is no sign Of fainting, only
exhaustion. He stands there, sustained
in part by his second, looking at the
first man In all the world who has
proved his master, and the CLEAN OF
those eyes can be termed nothing less
than diabolical.
Mynheer Joe leans on his sword and
coolly surveys his antagonist. Their
he calls for a match and applies it te
the cigar which he has held between
his teeth all this while. 1t is evident
that he has no fear Of the future.
The tableau remains unbroken fol
perhaps full minute.
"Timew says Mr.. Grimes clearly.
Mynheer Joe, still smoking calmly
elevates his sword. The plucky baror
makes a move to follow suit, when his
second, the French captain, throws
himself between.
Mon Dieu! You would not finish
this affair with murder, comrades? 1t
was agreed that a disabling wound
would end it. See, my principal has
no longer any arm. What served him
so we'll is now almost as useless as a
dead member. You will call it quits,
or I shall offer myself his substitute"
he cries with commendable enthusi.
asm and pluck, since he knows he is
no match for the Yankee.
"On one condition." returns Mr..
Grimes, who also produces and lights
a cigar, while the irrepressible San.
dy is scribbling away for dear life in
shorthand at the rate Of q thousand
words minute, more or less.
"Name it, monsieur"
'The baron provoked this duel by
IN insulting allusion to the American
flag. 1t has had trial by arms, and
the decision rests against him. Let
him frankly apologize, not to my
friend only but to Americans every
where, and I am sure Mynheer Joe
will be satisfied as well as myself"
The proposition is reasonable.
"Parbleu! I see no reason why it
should not be done in common justice,
since it has been decreed that my
principal was in the wrong. 1t was a
grand sight though; superb spectacle
that will haunt me always. What
say you, monsieur le baron-do you
withdraw your allusion to the flag
under which this gentleman serves"
The Russian smiles.
II am compelled to, since declared
that it covered only towards, for he
has proven very plainly that made
mistake. Mynheer Joe knows my
allusion was made only to provoke
him to a meeting, so that I need re-
tract my words no further than this"
"You have had the meeting; are you
satisfied, baron?" asks Joe himself.
For the present, yes;" returns the
other, between his teeth, "but this
does not end it, my American friend.
No man has ever yet run across my
path and lived: Your time will Gomez
"No man up to now has ever worst
ed you in a duel, Russia, but you met
your match here. Take care it is not
your life that is snuffed out like
candle. We Americans shoot to kill
when we engage with wolves or tig-
crs," says Mr.. Grimes.

The Oldest Mail Carrier.

Probably the oldest mail carrier in the
United States is Mr.. Samuel Gibbons, of
Hogdenville, Ky. He is seventy.,six years
old, and for sixty. three years, with hardly
an intermission, he has been in the EN-
ploy of the Government as mail carrier.
His career in this capacity was begun IN
1886, when he was eleven years old, dur
ing the "Old Hickory" Jackson AdminiS'

Lining Laces.

A new touch Of elegance refers to
the empiecements Of lace which trim
our sleeves and bodice. Instead Of
allowing the material Of the bodice to
show through the meshes Of the lace
the pieces are lined with either silk
or linen Of the same shade as the
lace-beige, cream, ecru or string COL
or, as the case may be. This looks
rather cooler than If the color Of the
dress, presumably darker, showed
through the interstices. It is con.
sidered rather more distingue than If
the lace were used over a "transpar.
ent."

Philadelphia. He called on the prin-
cipal Washington newspapers and re-
ceived a cordial welcome. Many physi-
clans of note called on the great Ger
man inventor to see the new improve
ments in his wonderful invention the
original Koch Inhalanion, which is a
patent, and no can use it but the Koch
Lung Cure, at the above addresses. 1t
is the only apparatus that can throw
those heavy healing oils and Koch tu-
berculine into vapors so they can be
breathed directly into the lungs in a
vaporized state SO the reatment gets
right to the seat of the disease. No
other process viii vaporize this heavy
mixture so it can be breathed to heal
up diseased lung tissue.
He is known throughout the whole
world as the inventor of the Koch In
halanion, a cure for consumption, asth-
ma. catarrh, and bronchitis. The treat
ment is given at s27 e Street northwest,
Washington. which is one of Dr. Koch's
principal offices for the German-Amer-
lean Company for this country. In his
lecture he frankly affirms that many
patients treating for consumption are
really only suffering from catarrhal
bronchitis, a cold on the chest that goes
down on the lungs and becomes chronic
only from neglect, hacking cough, a
slight shortness of breath. splitting of
mucus, associated with that languid,
tired feeling.
Do not fill the stomach full of med
icines. which do more harm than good.
All of the latest improvements have of
late been applied to this new Koch ap-
paratus. Patients are invited to call
and investigate.

MILWAUKEE,. wis

MILWAUKEE, Wis, June 1.-The Sen
ators got together this afternoon and took
the final game of the series from the
Brewers. but it required the utmost
strength on the part of the Washington
pitcher to do the business. The Senators
not only won. but they gave the Brewers
a dose of goose eggs, dishing up nine Of
them in a row.
1t was like putting salve on a wound
for Jimmy Manning. as he had not for
gotten the two defeats on Decoration
Day. Both teams played splendid bah
and it was battle of pitchers to decide
the issue. The game required only one
hour and twenty minutes, which shows
that there was no dallying around by the
players, although Manager Duffy had oc
casion to kick on several decisions on the
part of Haskell. Gear and Garvin had
their little battle by themselves. both do
ing exceptionally good work The Brew
ers got two hits off Gear, while the Sen
ators gathered six from Garvin's curves.
Garvin was not so steady as Gear max
ing two wild pitches, which were re-
sponsible for two of the runs scored.
Gear was as steady as a clock, and did
not pass a man TO first base, while Car
vim sent two. The work of Billy Cling
man was feature, as was that of Gil
bert, for the Brewers at short. The cold
east wind that has made the Brewers feel
like icebergs of late was at work again
today. Rain threatened to fall up to the
time of the game, and this had great
deal to do with keeping the crowd down.
The Brewers did not reach third base
during the game, not a man getting be-
yond Joe Quinn. In the fifth inning, Ey-
erett flew out, Clarke hit pop up back of
third base, Conroy and Hallman going
after it. but failing to get under the ball.
Ciingman fouled out and Coughlin made
three-bagger, scoring Clarke In the sew

Clingman hit safe and went TO third on a
wild pitch, but was caught by Burke when
he slid over the base. but Haskell had
goggles on and could not see.
