NFrfdoy Wanted.

Roland stopped and looked at the sign,
boy Wanted.
1t hung outside large cutlery estab-
lishment next to a store where there had
been a big fire. He had made up his
mind that he was old enough to look for
work and try to relieve mother. Should
he go ins He hesitated, then with all
the courage he could command, went
inside. He was sent back to room
where men on high stools were writing
IN big books, too busy to notice him,
but tall gentleman did, and questioned
him so fast he could hardly answer
What kind of work do you expect to
doy Don't know? Most boys do.
N ,ver worked out beforeY Suppose
you think it's all play. Well, pointing
to some steps, Ego down there, and the
man at the foot will tell you what to
do
Roland went down and found half q
dozen boys at work, with their sleeves
rolled up, cleaning and polishing knives.
The man at the foot of the steps looked
up and said:
Come to try your hand? Well,
three have just left in disgust Does
not seem to be boys work somehow, but
it's got to be done. You see," he said,
picking up some knives and scissors and
showing spots of rust on them, 'the
water that saved our building the other
night injured some of our finest goods.
If you want to try your hand at clean
ing, I'll show you how we pay by the
dozen"
"'Tisn't fair, said one of the boys.
Some have more rust on than others.
IF you don't like our terms you
needn't work for us, said the foreman,
and the boy, muttering that he wanted
to be errand boy and see something of
life, left, while Roland went to work
with will. AS he finished each piece
he held it up examined it critically
and wondered if mother would think it
well done. When the hour for closing
came, the gentleman who had sent him
down stairs appeared and, looking round
at the boys, said:
"Welll"

There is the boy we want" said the,
foreman, pointing to Roland. HE
will take pride in doing anything you
give him to do. He has been well
trained" Again the tall man spoke
quickly.
That's what we want Boy want
ed doesn't mean any kind of boy.
Mother know you came? No? Well,
take her your first wages and tell her
there's place open to you here. Then
put your arms around her neck and thank
her for teaching you to be thorough.
If more boys were thorough, more dogs
would succeed in life.
Il guess, mother, said Roland, when
he told her about it, sit was because /
tried to do everything as you would
like it. forgot was doing it because
there was a boy wanted"

Every claim made for DIR. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription has cure right

thousands of other cures.
uFavorite Prescription establishes
regularity, dries ofiensiye and weakening

ton and cures female weakness. 1t is
the best preparative for motherhood 4;
.tranquilizing the nerves, encouraging
the appetite and inducing refreshing
sleep. 1t makes the baby's advent prac-
tically painless and gives the mother
strength to give her child.

the story of such as these make appeal
to human sympathy and stir men to
organized effort for their relief.
RELIEF is READY.
More and more with every month of
every year women are learning that a
call for help in their weakness and sick
ness will be promptly answered by DIR.
R. v. Pierce, of Buffalo, n. Y. OF the
average of FIVE thousand letters re-
ceived by DIR. Pierce each week in the
year large number are from weak and
sick women who ask for relief from pain,
rescue from the loneliness and desola-
ton of life which disease has robbed
of all its brightness. Every such letter
is regarded as a cry for help, and the
Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute of
Buffalo, N. ", of which DIR. Pierce is
chief consulting physician and surgeon,
is organized for the rescue of just such
weak and sick women. With his staff
of nearly a score of physicians, each man
a specialist, DIR. Pierce responds to the
appeal of suffering women as promptly
as the crew of life-boat respond to the
appeal of distressed mariners. By his
medicines and advice hundreds of thou
sands of sick women have been made

If the news were flashed across the
continent that on some desolate, inhos-
pitable shore a mother and child were
ship-wrecked, it would not be an hour
before relief expeditions were being
planned and organized. Though the
cost should be millions, though the
voyage should be long and perilous,
though the woman cast-away were the
poorest of her sex, unstinted treasure
would be poured out and life cheerfully
risked to bring her back to home and
happiness.

CRIME In State
Alleged Murderer of Fireman
Bokcha Found.
KILLED BY TWO CAMP COOKS
Body Of Unknown Man Found at
Ithaca on Railroad Track-Murder
suspicioned - Hargraves Murder
Case Goes to Jury.

Menominee, Mich, Oct. S.-Philip
Arnold is the name of the alleged muir
derer of Joseph Bokcha, fireman on
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
road, who was killed in his cab last
week. Arnold shot down Otto Wen
dell at Mays logging camp near Wau-
saukee Saturday morning. His body
was identified at Wausaukee Monday
by his father, a citizen of Kekaunee,
Wis. who took the remains home.
The dead man had been roaming
about the woors terrorizing farmers
with his rifle.
1t was developed at the inquest that
Arnold was shot five times, once by
Wendell, the cook in the camp, and
four times by Charles Olson, another
cook. 1t seems that Olson rushed out
of the camp on hearing the first shot,
and finding Wendell fired at assumed
that some violence had been done him
and fired four shots at the fleeing man,
all of which took effect in his back.
The examination of Wendell, who
was arrested, was held yesterday at
Wausaukee. He was held in $500
bonds for trial in circuit court on a
charge Of murder. The officers have
not yet apprehended Olson.
Ithaca, Mich, Oct. S.-The body Of
an unknown man was found on the
tracks Of the d., M. e. N. railway, just
this side Of Carson City, one arm, a
leg and his head being cut off. Every
thing points to murder, the ground
around showing signs that scuffle
had taken place. The officers suspect
that the assassin, after numbering the
man, placed him on the track to allay
suspicion. The body was taken to
Carson City, where an inquest was
held, the jury finding that the I'M
known came to his death by being run
over by the cars.
Sheriff Parrish and Prosecutor Kir-
by are confident that murder was done
and say arrests will follow soon.
Traverse City, Mich, Oct. SIN his
charge to the jury in the Hargraves
murder trial Tuesday, Judge Mayne
instructed them that the theory of
murder in the first degree must not be
considered. If their verdict is guilty,
it could only be of murder in the Sec
ond degree, manslaughter or a lesser
crime. The closing argument for the
prosecution and the judges charge
were finished by 10: so, when the jury
retired.
At 6 o'clock last evening the jury
asked Judge Mayne for an explanation
Of his instructions on certain points.
The court submitted replies in writ
ing.
The elimination of the first degree
element in tie case frightened Har-
graves greatly.
