A Wonderful Offer to Women.

We have received word OF a most remark.
able offer which is TO be made 10 women by
The Uelneatov of New York.
Taking the fact that next year begins .
oew century, The Deiineator offers 10 distri.
butte $l7,500 among 1901 women. The plan
is so ceverly arranged that q woman living in
a small town or village, has just as good
chance TO win one OF these 1901 prizes 80
woman living in cty-because the prizes
are gwen for the number Of subscriptions
secured IN town in proportion IN the popu-
lauon of that Town, instead OF being given
simply to those who send the largest list OF
subscrbers-which Of conrse, are most easily
obtained IN big cities. Another clever feature
Of the plan ia that all the cities and towns OF
the United States and Canada have been ar
ranged in seven classes. The cities Of the
greatest population are grouped in Class |,
and AS these cities are not very many. the
prizes offered are twenty eight; the high
est prize being $500, and the lowest $500
The total amount OF prizes given away in thus
class Is S 900. The remaining smaller towns
and villages fall into six other classes. and as
the number OF towns in class increases. be-
cause, of course there arc more small towns
than large ones the amount of prizes given
away to a class increases, 80 that in Class I.

winners. .at.
Furthermore, to everyone who fails TO win
one OF the 1901 prizes there will be paid an
extra commission on subscriptions, provided
thev equal one out Of every two hundred in.
habiu.nts Of the town from which The con.
tesr.nt sends them.
This is altogether n very liberal offer, and
enc which the famous old Detineator is well
able 70 make good From our point of view
we do not see why such an offer needs TO be
made by the Publishers Of The Delineato, for
we believe it already has nearly half million
subscribers. Its strong hold upon the afec.
tons of American women has come In the
past generation, from its practical advice
about dress details and home matters.

The Real Cause.
Mother of Oracle.

The real causes of Americas sue
cess may be summed up in the
words-a tariff, securing the home
market and enabling foreign count
ries to be used as a dumping ground
for American surplus productions,
leans have the insight to scrap their
machinery when it goes out of date,
and to use every labor-saving con-
trivance. The trade unions do not
limit output and frown on the ma
chine tool. But with us, methods,
machinery and organization, which
are so conservative that they are ten

took Oracle as fast as trolley car
could carry me to the home uptown.
Its owners were rather simple peo-
pie, who didn't bother themselves
much about problems of heredity.
They had an old-fashioned idea that
God could run the universe without
their advice or assistance, and they
were primitive enough to believe
that if they did their duty he would
take care of the results.
With them Oracle found a haven
from sin and wretchedness. She
was little and soon forgot.

When / came back months later

Then she asked me if Oracle had

where and most folks thinks she was
drowned. Bill was awful cut up
about it when he came home, and he
gave Conn the worst she ever had
for not keepin' better track of the

Oracle"
Then knew how it felt to be a
murderer.
l went to the hospital physician
and told him the whole story, begg-
ing him to tell me if grief had any
thing to do with Cornelia's death.
He assured me it had not.
He said it was entirely a matter of

found that Bill was in luck about
| the time of Cornelia's death-it was
coincident with some mysterious
robberies of saloon tills-and he had
given Cornelia fine funeral.
There was a hearse and some car
riages, and Bill wore Grape on his
hat.
/ found that she was buried in a
decent little cemetery somewhat
apart from the turmoil of the crowd
ed districts.
Then did foolish and sentimen-
tai thing.
Some money had been given me to
buy shoes for the Maloney family.
They We're alive and needed the
shoes. Cornelia was dead and would
never need anything again.
But took the money and put a
modest slab above her grave. l told
myself it was "statoo" and l whis-
pered to Cornelia with my cheek
close against the sod that it was a
"statoo" and on it were the words:
Cornelia.

D0N'TS FOR THE DAIRY.

Don't ruin a fine dairy calf by mis-
treatment, but bring it up in the way,
it should grow, and your cow will be a
joy forever. u.
Don't think that pedigree makes the
dairy cow. Some of our best records
were made by animals without record
ed ancestry of any breed.
: Don't be in too big hurry at any
milking to get the last stripping. The
only way to keep COW at her best is
70 get it all at every milking.
Don't think because you only milk
: few COWS that it won't pay to keep
them right. Better not keep cow at
oil if she isn't worth good treatment.
Don't excite the COW in any way.
Frightening her, running her in from.
pasture, worrying her with dogs,
swearing or speaking harshly at her

"BABo0" ELoQUENcE.
Hit and Miss Pleading Of an Indian Law.
yer Before an English
judge.

People in this country frequently
express surprise at the high salaries
paid to members of the judicial bench
in India, says the London Chronicle.
When, however, these gentlemen have
perforce to hear with grave. face
such pleadings as the following, it is
not difficult to understand why the
government offers them a handsome
rate of remuneration. The case in
question was one of assault and bat
terry: my learned friend with more
wind from teapot thinks to brow
beat me from my legs. But this is
mere guerrilla warfare. I stand un-
der the shoes of my client, and I
only seek to place the bone of con-
tention clearly in your honor's eye.
Your honor will be pleased enough
to observe that my client is a poor
widow with one post-mortem son. A
widow of this country, your honor
will be pleased enough to observe,
is not like a widow of your honor's
country-is not able to eat more than
one meal day or to wear dhoties or
to look after "a man. So my poor
client had not such physique or mind
as to assault the lusty combatant.
Yet she has been deprived of some
of her valuable leather-the leather
of her nose.
my learned friend has thrown only
an argument ad hominum upon my
teeth, that my clients witnesses are
all near relatives. But they are not
her near relatives. Their relations
ship is there homeopathic. So the
misty arguments of my learned friend
will not hold water-at least, they
will not hold good water. And I am
sorry to say that this witness is
man of my own feathers, that there
are in my profession black sheep Of
every description. and some of them
do not always speak gospel truth.
Until the: witness therefore explains
how he has come. across my clients
nose leather, he can not be believed.
He cannot be allowed to raise castle.
in the air by beating upon a bush."
We are glad to observe that the de-
fcndant who took a piece of the
widows valuable nose leather was

enough for that. = Il.
He was q soldier. then ~
He was.'' said Ted quietly. '.He
was good one.'' S.
Then he told her the story Of the
friendship his and Arapahoe Bills;
how they had met in San Antonio at
the mastering Of the First Volunteer
cavalry, how they had been bunkies
in Cuba, had stormed the hill to-
gether' and together had fought the
fever in that long, dreary wait after
the red and yellow flag had ceased to
wave and before the transports were
ready. & s%s..
'And If Bill hadn't kept me full
OF quinine and gone to the brook
twice day with the canteens guess
I would have knocked UNDER" said
Ted. ~y--.|..,r'
''Would you?" said she, looking at
him earnestly. ::
'There's not . doubt of it. If it
hadn't been for Bill I'd be asleep
now somewhere in .Cuba-just as he
is here.''
''Won't you tell me about him?"
she asked, in soft voice.
Ted. thus encouraged, made eulogy
of Arapahoe Bill. "At the last, when
he knew the fever had the best of
him, he used to talk about where he
should like to lie after he had
cashed in,' as he said. He had a hor-
ror of being left down there. That's
why he's here. told him I'd fix it.
The lilacs? Oh, he liked them best.
They made him remember big bush
by the kitchen door somewhere"
"But those queer verses?" she
asked.
"Don't you know them? Route
Marchin',' by Kipling. I had the Bar
racks Room Ballads in my haver-
sack. used to read them to Bill. He
thought Danny Deever' was fair, and
he could tolerate Fuzzy -Wuzzy,' but
'Route-Marchin'' was the only one
that seemed to really please him.
Say, Bunkie, that's the real article.

like a bunch o. reg'lars comm along,

frain by heart-that part which goes:

actly like the last;
but the Hindustani bat of the last
line he never could remember more
than a few hours at time. This
troubled him, and just before he died
1T was on a clustering day-he said
he had one thing to ask. He wanted
to know if sometimes, when came
out to see how he was resting, I
wouldn't read the whole thing over
to him, in case he should forget!'
Poor old Bill"
Although Ted knew it not, he had
found, just as Othello found, the
plant hour. Dry-eyed and calmly
brushing the ash from his cigars end
he suddenly became aware that a Sob
blng and somewhat hysterical young
woman had thrown her arms about
his neck.
"Qh, Ted!" That was all she said.
but the words were big with meaning
to him, for, standing there above the
narrow bed where Arapahoe Bill was
sleeping the long sleep, much happi-
ness came to him.
"And you must come and bring IL
lacs every spring, and read to him."
she said at length; "and I will come
with you"
When Ted, with a drum beating in
his heart, as Barrie has it, got back
to his rooms he found a note which
had escaped his attention the night
before. It was her note. And he
laughed as he burned it.

r HERE were surprise, entreaty and
l one or two other emotions plain
1y to be read in her blue eyes and on
her pursed lips.
"But it's my party, you know, Ted,
and had counted on you or, of
course-the other"
"That's just what makes it 30
hard,' said he, looking not into her
eyes, but over her shoulder and far,
ever so far beyond.
1t was only a coaching trip into the
country which she had planned; but
when one is &C, and pleasure-seeking
is the serious business of life, such af-
fairs makes up the sum of things.
"But you know really want you to
go. II don't think you ought to dis
appoint me like this" She looked
very aggrieved. Ted could see that,
even though he kept his eyes directed
into the far distance.
"You know I'd like to go, too," said
he. "But-" He shrugged his shoul-
ders and was silent, his gaze still fixed
beyond her.
''But why will you not go?" she de-
manded, looking up into his face.
Now, do not laugh at her. The child
cries when the pretty soap-bubble
bursts beneath his eager fingers. And
this was bubble of her own blowing.
Besides, some day he might be very
near to her. It was not settled. She
was to have her own time in making
choice between them. So why
should he not come when she called?
"Tell me why?" she persisted.
"It's because l." There he stopped.
"Oh, you wouldn't understand
"Of course, if you don't want to tell
me-" she said, stifay.
Its not that. It's" He hesi-
tated, and his eyes came from beyond
her shoulders back to her. "Good-
hy," he said. Then he went away.
yirst she cried. It was the only
logical thing to do. Somewhat
cheered, she wrote a note to-the
other one. This she tore up as soon
as it had been signed. Then she wrote
another exactly like. the first. This
she kept for some three minutes be-
fore burning in the taper fame. Then
came a friend with much news Of vast
