At Panama, Colombia, by chamberIain's

DR.. Chas. H. Utter, prominont
physician, of Panama, Colombia, in a
recent letter states: Last March ] had
as a patient a young lady sixteen years
of age, who had very bad attack OF
dysentery. Everything / prescribed
for her proved Intellectual and she was
growing worse every hour. Her parents
were sure she would die. She had be-
come so weak that she could not turn
over in bed. What to de at this crlti-

His Grentest Mistake.

"The mistake of my life" said the
reminiscent man, was when | was
selling patent medicines in Russia.
One day | attended a review of crack
regiment, and suddenly every man in
the ranks began sneezing for all he
was worth. In a trice had my sam
pie case open and was trying to sell
the commissary a carload of my anti
grip pellets when he rudely informed
me that the troops were only hailing
with delight the arrival of General
Akachoochebedoosk Judge.

the maid when her mistress isn't look
ing"
Burton saw no application to himself |
in particular and took the shot at his |
sex as a piece of badinage. He retort-
ed laughingly, You wouldn't have him |
kiss her in the presence of her mis-
tressY
Miss Kingsley had been in the house |
just one month when Burton went |
through the operation of personal
stocktaking. You're not a Ouida
Adonis, jim" he told himself. 'but you
seem to be a decent, fairly good looking
sort of chap, according to everyday
standards; you are good tempered, rea-
sonably dOmesticated and willing to
become more so, of a tolerable dispO-
sitiOn and financially in a position to
marry a modest maid"
When a man holds this kind of COM
muniOn with himself, it goes without
saying that he is in love, and Jim was
frank to himself, at least on that ques-
tion.
Although no definite time had been
fixed upon for Miss Kingsley's depar-
ture, Burton felt instinctively that her
stay was coming to an end. There
was a premOnitiOn of farewell in the
air, and, although his acquaintance
was only six weeks old, he determined
to take the desperate step. Now, a
proposal is a delicate and. difficult mat
ter, and Jim felt that of all the known
and approved methods only one suited
his temperamental and physical make
up. The romantic was out of the ques-
ton, the fiippant too extreme on the
other side, the abrupt too unwise, the
roundabout beyond his compass.
Therefore he planned what he believed
to be a style of his own.
She was playing the piano. He was
leaning negligently at the side.
Il suppose you are looking forward
to the opening of the grand opera sea-
sOn?' he inquired, with deliberate in
tention to discover the date of her de-
parture.
"No; that is one of my disappoint-
ments. | leave on Monday"
Jim was silent for awhile. 1t was
part of his plan.
Il shall be very sorry. 1t is a pity
you will not remain in New York alto
gether"
'Thank you. You are very kind"
This, with frank smile into his eyes,
disconnected Jim somewhat. He had
expected a reply with a why" in it.
He tried it again.

"But l can't"
"YOu can"
"HOwY'

"Is this a propOsal?"
Jim nodded.
''Well, | am very much flattered in

in righteous indignation at the impu

NO! Mollie, mean. hear she was

"NIy niece Mary was always well

wrong thing almost every time" said
one old gentleman to another, 'and
she's got a boy that's going to be her
very counterpart"
The old gentleman's eyes twinkled,
and his plain. good natured face was
puckered with enjoyment as he drew
from his pocketbook a small sheet of
note paper.

all kinds of pranks when it's wound

Inadequate supplies of fuel caused further
banking of furnaces, but the effect OF a
decreased output Of domestic pig iron, has
been partially neutralized by larger arrivals
from abroad. Practically no price can be
named for immediate delivery of home iron

sions for distant contracts owing to the
abnormal coke situation. fortunately there

further delay on the railroads, which are
unable to handle freight promptly. Orders
come forward freely for the heavier lines,
numerous contracts being offered for steel
rails for next years delivery and the plans
for buildings and bridges keep a lot of
business in sight in beams. hannels and
angles. Plates for ship yards are also
sought freely, prices tending upward on
tank steel. Higher freight rates have
checked imports of finished steel.
Footwear shops are actively engaged,
many producers having added TO their long
list of orders and while practically all the
New England manufacturers are assured
full time up to the end of the year, they
are also taking orders for deliveries in
March. Prices are easily maintained.
Leather Is slightly weaker, owing to the
sharp fall in hides. which has been ac-

weakened dry hides. In cotton goods the
