CHAPTER XVIII.

The firm of Cresswell & Langdon,
attorneys and counselors at law, had
moved to the capital. The title Of colo
mel, SO long and so gracefully worn by
the senior member. had given way to
that Of judge and had perched, eagles
and all, upon the shoulders of his mar
tial Junior In a great commonwealth
of the far northwest men of brain,
Drawn and energy were not long lack
ing work, and as the years rolled on
and Langdon gained confidence with
constant practice in the courts there
came time when he could have wish
ed for greater opportunity for study.
"Giye up your tin soldering" growled
the judge. "Here you are going on 40
and wasting three or four evenings q
week fooling round with lot of boys
playing with swords and guns" And
still Langdon smiled the same quiet,
quizzical smile, passed his long, slim
fingers back through the thinning crop
of dark hair, all silvered now, as was
the trooper mustache, and looked up at
his portly senior and said, I'm just
beginning to enjoy it." Regulars ga
lore were stationed along the valley of
the North American Amazon. Infan-
try at Vancouver, Spokane and Cnur
d'Alene, cavalry at Boise and Walla
Walla, gunners at the big forts along
the coast, and the old regiment had
come again to the Pacific, and Mel
vile, with silver leaves instead of gold
h;S TO fyla ~ nd
ing at the stone fortress in the bay,
and Nathan, rejoicing in the proximity
of San Francisco, and May and Wood
row, in their first lieutenancies, all had
heard OF Langdon's steady progress,
and some had even seen him at the
summer camps of the state soldiery
and watched his hard, patient, skillful
work with the crude but ambitious bat
talions. There was no question who
should succeed to the colonelcy of the
scattered regiment of guardsmen when
one administration stepped down and
out and a political pet of the depart
ing governor was induced to resign
For four years he had been but the
figurehead, while Langdon was pilot,
captain and engineer of the craft, ever
coaching, drilling and encouraging, and
so, finding it useless to coax his part
ner out of his fad for military service,
Cresswell turned to, as he had a dozen
times before, to work for his advance
ment He had stumped the state in the
! interests of the new governor and de-
manded as partial payment that the
| regiments plea should be honored and
Langdon promoted colonel. "Lots Of
work and no pay" was his summing
up as he handed the commission to his
fayorite. "But suppose you'd rather

How to Prevent Group.

It will be good news to the mothers
of small children to learn that Group
can be prevented. The first sign of
Group is hears eness. A day or two be-
fore the attack the child becomes
hoarse. This is soon followed by a Pc
culiar rough cough. Give Chamber.
lain's Cough Remedy freely as soon as
the child becomes hoarse.or even after
the rough cough appears, and it will
dispel all symptoms of Group. In this
way all danger and anxiety may be
avoided. This remedy is used by
many thousands of mothers and has
never been known to fail. 1t is, in
fact the only remedy that can, always
be depended upon and that is pleasant
and safe to take. For sale by all

A WORTHLESS FISH.

The introduction Of the carp as a
food fish into the streams and lakes Of
the country was one of the most unfor-
tunate blunders ever made almost as
great a one as the Introduction of the
English sparrow. The carp is almost
worthless for food purposes and is used
as food only by a few of the foreign
ers. 1t is mud hog, a destroyer of the
spawn of other valuable fish and keeps
the water where it is found SO rolled
and unhealthful that other desirable
food fishes cannot live. Systematic eff
forts are now being made to get rid of
this pest. A late market quotation on
carp was only a cent pound where
black bass was quoted at Is cents.

A GOOD APPLE.

In the year 1893 the Northern Iowa
Horticultural society by resolution con-
demned the Northwestern Greening APP
pie as unfit and unworthy of recogni-
ton in the north Iowa and southern
Minnesota territory. A few men, how
ever, persisted in planting this tree,
and today it shows up as one of the
most promising varieties Of winter APP
pies for that territory. Its keeping
qualities are undisputed, we having.
held these apples under ordinary cellar
conditions until May. This year in size
and perfection Of fruit they eclipse
any apples we have seen, whether
raised in Missouri. Michigan or New
York. We regard 1t as fully as hardy
as the Wealthy, though not of as high
quality.

of his grade In the regiment, Nathan
was not even trusted with the COM
mand of a battalion, and when not ac-
tually Frustrated by seasickness his
waking hours aboard ship 'twixt the
| Farallones and Honolulu were given
over to the writing of urgent letters to
friends and kindred and certain state
officials, calling on them to see to 1t
that he was appointed to the colonelcy
of one Of the volunteer regiments being
raised on the Pacific COAT, for that
could be done by gove,aor whether
the war department liked it or not and
might insure his being ordered back to
San Francisco. The list of casualties

him out of all conceit with the idea of
heading company in an attack on

done, leaving to his lieutenant the duty
of preparing the battery for the voyage

GIN ROME, DO AS ROMANS DO"
We have not much patience with the
old farmer who, moving to town to
spend his declining years, makes a spe-
cialty of growing at the taxes imposed
upon him. Municipal government is Of
very necessity more costly than that
of tile township. If the town schools
are better than those of the country,
they cost more money TO maintain. If
the town has lighted streets and fire
protection, they cannot be had for moth
ing. In town there are two demands
upon mans time and pocketbook on
public account where there is one in
the country. So our friends from the
country who move into our towns and
cities will best enjoy life themselves
and they in the greatest degree will be
valued and appreciated by town people
If they will avoid fault finding at the
necessary money cost Of the privileges
and attractions which draw them
there and instead lend responsive
and liberal aid to all legitimate things
conducive to the best interests Of the
town. If they must grumble, forty
acre tract in the country is the place on
which to do it.
