CHAPTER xXII.-CContinued.)


While the family were making arrange
ments to move from Glenwood to Chico
pee, Henry for the first time in his life
began to see how little use he was to
himself or any one else Nothing was eX-
peeted Of him, consequently nothing was
asked of him, he began to wonder how he
himself was henceforth to exist. His
father would be in California, and he had
too much pride to lounge around the old
homestead which had come to them
through George Moreland's generosity.
Suddenly it occurred to him that he,
too, would go with his father-he would
help him repair their fortunes-he would
be a man, and when he returned home,
hope painted joyful meeting with his
mother and Jenny, who should be proud
to acknowledge him as a son and broth
or. Mr.. Lincoln warmly seconded his
resolution, which possibly would have
never been carried out had not Henry
heard of Miss Herndon's engagement
with rich old bachelor, whom he had
often heard her ridicule. Cursing the
fickleness of the fair lady, and half-wish-
ing that he had not broken with ella,
whose fortune, though not what he had
expected, was considerable, he bade adieu
to his native sky, and two weeks after
the family removed to Chicopee, he sail
ed with his father for the land of gold.
But alas The tempter was there be-
fore him, and in an unguarded moment
he fell. The newly made grave, the mar
row coffin, the pale, dead sister and the
solemn vow were all forgotten and de-
bauch of three weeks was followed by
violent fever, which in a few days cut
short his mortal career He died alone,
with none but his father to witness his
wild rawlings, In which he talked of his
distant home of Jenny and Rose, Mary
Howard and Ella, the last of whom he
seemed now to love with madness
amounting almost to frenzy. Tearing out
handfuls of his rich brown hair, he thrust
it into his fathers hand, bidding him to
carry it to Ella and tell her that the heart
she had so earnestly coveted was hers in
death. And the father, far more wretch
ed now than when his frst-born daugh-
ter died, promised everything, and when
his only son was dead, he laid him down
to sleep beneath the blue sky of Califor-
MIA, where not one of the many bitter
tears shed for him in his far-off home
could fall upon his lonely grave.

in the coming day, as she kept her tire
less watch over her loved and lost.
Willie was my cousin-your cousin"
said Mary, resting her hand upon the bit
of board which stood at the head Of the
little graves. George understood her
wishes, and when they left the place a
handsome marble slab marked the spot
where the father and his Infant sou were
buried.

JUDICIOUS ADVERTISING.
II Is the Best Method for Building Up and
Holding Trade,

Advertising Is without doubt the most
powerful force that can be employed
In the acquisition of trade. 1t is the bat
tering ram that pushes through the solid
wall of competition and launches goods
in the place once occupied by the old
competitor, whose mistaken notion that
long years of business and the re-
putation of the firm" were a sufficient
s~afegard against the onslaught of newer
but more progressive enterprises.
Judicious advertising has forced I'M
known goods into the hands of unwilling
dealers and created a demand with the
consumer that no trade combination,
price-cutting or anything else could inn
pair. A business built upon this basis
is strong, highly satisfactory and indie
pendent.
A Straightforward story. naturally told.

readers of . newspaper and attract new
customers; but ad win mot do, nor a
number of ads. and unless adver-
Using is done regularly and persistently
the cumulative effect Is lost n the
possibilities of results minimized.
No man should refrain from advertis.
ing because some one else I'm the same
line of business is a more prominent ad-
vertiser, or because of the fact that
larger ads may overshadow his modest
effort. There are very few people to be
found who do not believe in advertising.
They all recognize and acknowledge it's
value In a general way. but do not as q
rule apply It to their own business.
Advertising requires the same intelli-
gent thought and consideration that an
evenly balanced business man gives to
every detail of his own business, yet COM
paratively few business men treat the
subject of advertising with the considera-
ton due to so important and necessary
a selling factor in this age Of progress
and competition.

Sulphufic Acid Bath.

On Friday last the boys at the DeLamar
mill went through what for a time, was
a most serious inconvenience. In the nat
ural curse of vents II became neces-
sary to clean out and change the position
of a large tank. In which sulphuric acid
had been kept almost ever since the mill
was built. The refuse was about three
feet deep and it was necessary to 60
into this powerful substance and shovel It
out. A lot of lime was thrown into the
tank, without thinking of the serious
consequences likely to follow this action,
and a powerful gas was generated that
nearly sufrocated the men. In addition
the substance burned their shoes and such
clothing as 1t came in contact with, nor
even sparing the fesh-De Lamar Lode.

1.-THE people of Kansas" he began,
ARE proud Of the brave, daring, and
gallant Fred Funston, Applause on the
Republican side). He has been criticised
here for an act which for daring OF
conception and execution ranks with
the greatest feats Of arms-he captured
the new George Washington-Aguinal-
do.
III another had accomplished what
Gen. Funston did" he said, "the Demo
Gratis would have made him their can

Soldiers who knew more Of war and
the rules of war than all the politicians
In this country combined" And his

tention that the laws of neutrality were
being violated by this government In
