A GREAT INVENTION.

Inventor Edisen's announcement that
his new storage battery IS now perfected
TO the point of solving the problem of
portable electric motor power will be
received with the profoundest interest
by the civilized world. Heretofore, Mr..
Edison has not been prone TO make dec
laratlonS of achievement that We're not
subsequently born out by the facts. He
has hadit of sustaining his word in
such cases. If he has followed his Gus
tomary course in the present instances
the rest Of his perfected motor may
wei be awaited with confident anticipa-
ton A revolution in steam railway
methods would seem 10 be one Of the
most certain Of these results, since it
stands to reason that. if the new device
is successfully applied TO automobiles
and street railways. the next step must
inevitably be its introduction on the
great railway system.

HUSBAND CANNOT OPEN WIFE S
LETTERS.

Judge Lowell of Boston has handed
down decision in the United States
Circuit Court that is likely to endear
him 10 the Confederated Women's
Clubs of America.
He has decided that NJ. ID. Giroux
had no right TO open letters addressed
to his wife, and for that otfense has i'm
posed fine of $50.
This may have been in strict accord
ance with the law. but the great COM
mon law of jealousy declares that Mr..
Giroux had the right to verify or dispel
the gnawing suspicion that his wife was
in love with another man. nat the
woman complained TO the postal au-
thoritles and her husband was arrested.
Under the law it would seem that the
sealed envelope. when once stamped by
the authority OF the United States, Is
more sacred than the marriage tie.

SaXony possesses one of the best
regulated systems of forestry in the
world. The forests of SaXony serve
not only the purpose of giving the state
a substantial annual revenue, but they
add a thousandfold to the scenery of
the country, thus attracting many tour
lists into those parts every summer.
The most important feature of the for
ests, however, is the fact that they
keep forever alive the fountains of wa
ter which spring from the highlands
of the Erzgebirge and Saxon Switzer-
land. The forests furnish the mate
rial and the water the motive power to
hundreds of pulp, paper and saw mills,
which, in turn, give employment to
thousands of men, women and chill
dren.

young colored girl from Virginia went
out to give her orders for dinner one
day and was astounded to see the ne
gro sitting on the floor with her hair,
or wool, standing out around her head
in black and shiny nimbus. Not
hearing the approach of the mistress,
the servant went on with her occupa-
ton, which was pulling first one curly
lock and then another in way that
suggested that she had either lost a
fortune or got religion" The madam
stared moment and then exclaimed:
"For goodness sake, Betty, what are
you doing"
The maid hurriedly scrambled to her
feet and answered:
"Oh, nothin, maam. PZe got a sore

seated next to Mr.. Gladstone, says a
writer in Chambers Journal.
1t was a time of great storm and
stress in the political world. Mr.. Glad

feat at the general election two years
later. When he heard that l had been

wrong, real or imaginary, for one good

Without a word Philip rose steadily
to his feet and balanced his way along

''Where are you goingY' she cried
tremulously.

at doesn't matter now," he answer
ed easily.
She knew he did not mean it and that
purposely he let his foot slip while he
clutched at the rafter but she was too
proud and angry to speak. Silently she
watched him make his way along the
beam that topped the side wall, and so
to the rear of the church. Here storm
door, built inside, made platform ten
feet from the beams. He carefully
swung himself down, then dropped
from the platform to the floor. Next
she saw him come up the aisle to the
chancel.
Her heart beat fast. What would he
do? She would never pay the price he
demanded for her deliverance. She did
hate to be bullied. She had never
thought Philip could be such bully.
Yes, that was the very word.
In the dusk she could see him work
ing over the ladder. Finally he raised il
to the wall and placed it securely with.
in her reach.
"You can come down now," he said
curtly as he turned his back, 'but if
you will wait minute or two will be
outside the building, and you will be
safe from annoyance"
He walked toward the rear of the
church. A quick gasp followed him
through the gathering shadows; then
as he neared the door he heard the rus
tie of feminine skirts, and voice called
entreatingly:
"Phil, dear Phil, wait just a mo-
ment."
He turned. A whirlwind of golden
hair, warm, tremulous lips and coaXing
arms threw itself into his embrace.
"Phi, dear l thought you were going
to force me to be good and make up.
If you had, I'd hated you, but
"And now?
What followed only the paschal
lamb, smiling benevolently from his
post above the altar, could tell. And
he smiled in just the same set way two
months later when Philip and Mildred
walked down the aisle, with Mildred's
white gloved finger marking the page;

it among lot of people who care moth

Why pay a high price for liquor

Apple Trees For Beauty and Fruit

Apple Trees For Beauty and Fruit.
Apple trees are so beautiful, even
when bare of bloom and fruit, that
they should be grown in pleasure gar
dens, like lilacs and laburnums. Ten
nyson speaks of orchard lawns. and
there is no reason except bad taste
why they should not have a real exist
ence. The gloom of the fir tree, mag
nificent no doubt in its own northern
forest, is mere incongruous dreariness
when 1t is dotted about a suburban
lawn. Nothing will thrive under it,
and often it will not thrive itself, but
the apple, with all the associated beau.
ty of the countryside, gives us fruit
and blossom and grateful shade. In
the grass under it will grow daffodils.
columbines, irises and many other
plants, or it may be trained as a hedge
to divide one part Of the garden from
another and with all these uses may
still produce great crops of fruit. 1t
would be a pleasant task for the sub
urban gardener with his half acre of
ground to grow three or four choice
apple trees with the care that others
give to roses.-London Speaker.
