0OVE, what a picture" exclaimed
0ll young Fairleigh, his eyes kindling.
- II never thought that Elsie was so
pretty-neverv
Elsie, busy at the table in the kitchen
of the apartment house was quite I'M
aware that she was being observed.
How could she know there was anyone
In that long vacant house next door?
Indeed, it was mere chance which had
brought Robert Fairleigh to that sec
ond-story hall window, from which he
looked across and down at Elsie. The
firm of which he was a member had
been given instructions by the owner
as to the papering and decorating of
this particular house, and Fairleigh,
knowing that he was invited next door
to supper, had put the key of the va
cant house in his pocket and gone out
early in the afternoon that he might
make calculations and estimates before
1t was time for him to keep his engage
ment.
80, she is a harmless little creature"
Miss Isabel Burns had said to him
apropos of her cousin Elsie. IAN or
phan, whom we keep out of charity
She is quite burden in a way, being
80 idle and incapable. When we are
without a maid, as occasionally hap
pens, all the hardship of the kitchen
falls on my shoulders. Elsie is the
drone of this hive"
And straightway Fairleigh, who had
an old-fashioned feeling that the do
mestic woman was the kind he wanted
for a wife, ignored, except in so far as
courtesy went, the existence of the little
cousin, and devoted himself to Isabel,
who, If past her youth, was still an i'm
posing and stately young woman.

ST. vITUS' DANCE
HOW ONE LITTLE SUFFERER WAS
PERMANENTLY CURED.
ents for the Remedy that Saved
the Life of Their Child.

From the Trareler, Arkansas city, Kan.
Rapid as has been the advance of
medical science along many lines, it
is only in recent years that remedy
has been Discovered for one of the
most dreadful of nervous diseases that
affliced children-St Vitus' dance.
This and other nervous disorders
that cause the pale and wan faces and
peevish, irritable dispositions of so
many children can now be scien-
tifically treated by a remedy that
strikes at the root of the disease by
renewing the impoverished blood and
strengthening the nerves.
Words of commentator for this
remedy come from all parts of the
civilized world. This is the interest
ing story told by Mr.. and Mrs Chris
topher Armstrong, of Jefferson, Okla.
Our youngest daughter was for
three years afflicted with st. Vitus,
dance, and we almost despaired of
finding relief in medical treatment.
She was so helpless that she had to be
fed and would fall over at times and
be unable to rise
eve had heard and read a great
deal about DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People, and, as last resort,
determined to try them. The effect
was alomst miraculous. From the
first box there was a noticeable i'm
provement and by the time she had
taken Fix boxes she was almost we'll.
Altogether she took about a dozen
boxes, and by the time she was 13
years of age, was strong and healthy,
weighing la pounds. "

she went on with her work But Fair
leigh noticed with a queer sense of in
dignant pain at his heart that the flush
had gone, leaving her looking white,
and that she sang no more.
1t was with much effusion that Miss
Burns received her caller. She had
been hoping he would come earlier. AL
though, indeed, she could hardly have
given him much of her time had he
done so. They were without a maid,
and she had been compelled to prepare
supper Not that she really disliked
cooking, as so many women averred
they did. She had studied the science,
believing it to be more essential to the
making and the maintenance of a hap
Ply home than knowledge of a language
To be sure. tonight they had asked him
only to their ordinary family supper.
Her parents had always insisted on
dining early in the day. She was sure
he would make allowances.
Certainly. They were good to let him
come informally. And all the time he
was wondering at the transformation
well-brushed hair and properly fitting
gown had effected in the unattractive
person who had instructed Elsie. Elsie
minus her cooking cap, and wearing a
soft little lawn gown, came and went
serving them. Just at first Elsie had
given Fairleigh a distant bow, but al
though she quickly glanced away she
had seen new look in his eyes-a look
nj n f,.ot ION,
the roses blossoming out on her cheeks.
Once, during Elsie's absence from the
room, Isabel made some laughing apol-
ogy for having Elsie wait on table.
But whenever | have cooked the
supper-What? A delicious supper! O,
I'm so glad you like it. l was saying
when have cooked the supper, think
it is only fair Elsie should wait at table.
Have another biscuit, Mr.. Fairleigh, if
only to flatter me. Yes, l am a trifie
proud of my biscuitsr'
The elder people were talking togeth-
er and paid no attention, but Fairleigh,
looking up at that instant, saw the
swinging door was held back, and Ell
sic, another plate of golden-brown bis
cults in her hand, stood there. Her
eyes met those of Fairleigh full. A
flashing look passed between them. She
had heard then! Whether it was the
speech, or Bob Fairleigh's amused and
radiant glance of intelligence that dis
turbed her, Elsie did not know but at
that moment the door swinging shut,
sent the plate dashing from her hand.
Fairleigh sprang to her assistance,
where she stood dumb with embarrass-
ment. And as the young man restored
the recovered biscuits and the shattered
plate, he handed them to her with the
whispered entreaty:
when will you sing for me again,
MY love is like a red, red roser
"AgainY' she said. She was like the
rose she sang of in that instant.
"Again?"
Fortunately, when he called with his
new team the day following Isabel was
out Elsie told him so. But he had
not called for her, he explained. He
had called for Elsie What a drive
that was! How the story of his obser-
walton surprised her. And it was
happy girl whom he persuaded that if
his was not love at first sight, it was
love all right, and would make his life
a melody that's sweetly sung in tune!-

Mrs. c. ]. West, aged "a, wife of c. ]
West, of the Duluth Iron G Metal COM
pany, while in Chicago about six weeks
ago, visited a palmist with a party Of
friends and was startled to be informed
that she had but thirty days to live.
She laughed the matter off and made
light of the prediction, but evidently it
made considerable of an impression up
on her. After visit of two weeks in
Chicago Mrs. West went with her
friends to small town across the In
diana border where party was given
in her honor. One of the ladies with
whom Mrs. West had been playing
cards proposed to tell her fortune
Again the fateful prediction was
made that Mrs. West had but two more
weeks of life. Two days later Mrs
West complained of feeling i'll and re-
turned to her home in Duluth. Eminent
physicians were gathered in consulta-
ton, but despite their best efforts she
died on the last day of the fatal two
weeks. The doctors in attendance upon
Mrs. West say that the fortune telling
undoubtedly eXerted an influence to
produce the woman's death.

The d development
of the copper re.
COPPER.

VI tuo copper Eo'
sources of the United States in recent
years has been phenomenal. Prior to
the end of the first half of the century
just closed, our annual output of copper
did not exceed 1,OO0,OOO pounds. The
worlds production was then only about
10000 tons. In 1S4S the first shipment
of copper was made from the Lake
Superior mines. 1t amounted to but
twelve tons This marked the beginning
of the boom in the copper industry.
The worlds production of copper for
the century was between eight and ten
million tons. The production of the
United States alone for last year was
3lS,875 tons or more than the worlds
production of ten years ago.
The growth in our export copper trade
is also encouraging. Copper exports
increased last year by 1878 per cent over
the preceding year and were equal to
5S 8 per cent of the domestic production.
That the demand is keeping pace with
the increased supply is evident from the
firmness of the market, the price re.
manning at II cents for the entire year
with the exception of occasional varia-
tions of fractional cent. This shows
growing recognition of the importance
and value of copper that is indicative of
great commercial possibilities for the
United States.
