CHAPTER VII,

Mrs. Tanner almost started when
Beryl came to show herself when she
was dressed for the fete, land yet the
girl only wore the white cashmere
which had been her best attire last
summer. It was very soft and cling
ing, falling from waist to hem in long,
straight folds, the bodice trimmed with
a little white silk. and a broad sash
Of the softest surah knotted loosely
round her waist. Her hat was white,
too, and trimmed with a long white
feather and a quantity Of chiffon. She
looked far more like some rich wan
dering princess than a humble school
assistant.
Shall I do?" asked Beryl, a little
anxiously.
"You had better put a cloak over
your dress for the drive, the lanes
! are so dusty" said Mrs. Tanner. "You
look charming, and I am sure Mrs.
Grey will think So"
That lady drove up then in her
rather shabby pony carriage. The

Rockefeller" raises thousands OF
chickens by incubator at his place near
Tarrytown, which are regularly sold
in the name of the manager of the
place in the New York markets.
Grapes and other dollhouse delicacies
are also disposed of in the same way,
when produced in excess Of the needs
of the family. John D. Rockefeller has
never shown any taste for such rural
pleasures, nor has he any fad or hobby
with which to relieve the strain Of
money-getting. He is rather fond of
good trotters, and pays some attention
to them at his Tarrytown place.
DR.. Seward Webb lumbers pieces OF
land in the North Woods, and A A.
Low, brother of the mayor, makes
maple sugar and elderberry and rasp-
berry wine on his place in the Adiron-
dacks, selling them for fancy prices in
New York. Both men further amuse
themselves by connecting the various
parts of their estates by private rail-
roads.

ODD OCCUPATION,

Professor of Being Buried Alive Testi-
f1es In Courtroom.
One OF the witnesses in a recent law
suit In Cleveland was Edward Kaehn.
The Cleveland Leader says: 1.-THE ex
animation of Kaehn proved to be verv
amusing. On the cross-examination
Prosecutor Keller demanded to know
the business of the witness. The w.t.
ness said that he lived at 325 Lake
street, and was known as Prof. James
smith, and that his speciality was be-
ing buried alive for exhibition DUR
poses. He declared that he never had
really died. but claimed that he could
lie In grave six days and nights. He
averred that he was ready at any time
to be buried for $500 per week, provid-
Ing that there was proper and an un-
m1stakably trustworthy committee to
play the role OF resurrection angels
should they be needed to save his life.
He was rather reluctant about tipping
of his act,' as he expressed it, but
Judge Neff became interested and
wanted to hear all about it. Kaehn
declared that he has been placed in
coffin which had been properly uphol-
stored, and that it has been lowered
into grave feet 4 inches deep. An
air shaft is constructed and the grave
closed.
What is the air shaft for?' asked
the prosecutor >",'
For air. replied Kaehn, and for
sending down the beer, water and
grub
Then you always had to have air,
did your continued the prosecutor,
"'Oh, no. Sometimes was COM
pletely buried for twenty -four hours
In a case Of that kind a bucket of
water was placed in the coffin and sew
eral sponges saturated with water. The
water evaporated, and that furnished
all the oxygen I needed to live on"

The push-button telephone consists
of a complete telephone, including

button. Where electric bells are al

removed and the new instrument sub

A dispatch from Vancouver states
that a contract 10 raise the sunken
steamer Islander, which was sunk last
summer by a collision with an iceberg,
has been let by the agent for Lloyd's to
the Sureties Hope company of Seattle.
The work is to be commenced within
sixty days. The Canadian Pacific Nav
legation company made a search for the
Islander after she sank, but failed to
locate her, owing to the great depth or
the water. When the steamer sank she
had on board $35, 900 in gold, consigned
to the Dominion Express company IN
Vancouver, and many people coming
out each had various amounts, when
brought the total value of the treasure
in the charge Of the purser up to over

Burning Heat,

burning Heat.
Star City, Ark, May 26th.-A very
remarka BILE case has just occurred here.
Mr.. W H. Morals has been suffering
severely for two years with an ailment
that puzzled the doctors and every
body. The trouble seemed to be all in
his head, which had a burning sensa-
ton all the time.
Sometimes this burning pain in the
head would be worse than at other
times, but it never left him.
At last he tried new remedy called
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and was agreeably
surprised to find that the burning grad
ually disappeared.
An attack of La Grippe has laid him
UP for the last few weeks, but Dodd's
Kidney Pills have banished his old
trouble entirely.
His son, George. Used a few of the
Pills which his father did not need, and
they have done him so much good that
he says he would not take ten dollars a
pill for the few he still has left.

ment regarding the domestic affair.
''This is to certify that all reports
concerning the estrangement of my
husband and myself duplicating others
in my leaving Mr.. Warner are false
and misleading. MIR. James d. Wright
nor other persons named in Clayton,
had anything to do with my going

ically deny. The afternoon l left Mr..
Warner walked to Smyrna and pur-
chased a ticket at the station there for
Wilmington and my baggage was
checked on that ticket Not person

my husband, for / had carefully kept
my plans to myself. The true facts of
the case follow: Martin Warmers

tried to be faithful wife to him and
do a mothers part in looking after the
interests of our children, but no
woman could stand the continual abuse
/ was subjected to. 1 was afraid of

times, but upon each occasion returned
upon his promise to treat me better.
I will never live with him again.
This is my final decision. Our trouble
has been caused by Mr.. Warmers in
temperate habits. His treatment of
me has been shameful many times,
but when my husband was drinking
his conduct toward me was always
brutal. / make this statement to cor
rect the wrong impressions that have
