PROSPERITY OF THE WEST.
Kansas Furnishes the Figures In Good
Round Numbers.

The secretary of the Kansas State
board of agriculture figures that the
products of Kansas farms aggregated
$56,000,000 more for 1902 than for
1901, and for three years the increase
in values has been $101, 352,952. These
figures are, sample Of the wonderful
increase in the wealth of the West,
which has completely changed the
character of the country. Everything
goes to show the betterment that has
taken place on Western farms, and, as
natural result, Western cities also.
One bank in Kansas City in it's last
statement showed deposits of over
$29,00O,O00, while all the banks Of
Louisville have only about $36, 900 900.
The nelghboring state of Missouri has
made even greater strides in the &C
emulation of riches than Kansas, and
Nebraska and her neighbors tells a
similar story.
Perhaps nothing shows the changed
conditions all over the West so clearly
as the earnings of the great railroads,
The October statement of the Atchi.
san, Topeka & Santa Fe showed
gross earnings of $5,910,9 $3.50, a gain Of
S520.00S over the same month Of last
year; and for four months gross earn
ings Of S20,506,994. And yet the At
Gibson was a bankrupt road only few
years ago. The Union Pacific Is an.
other case in point. 1t was reorganiz-
ed In 1895. and in 1896 its common
stock sold at 81 per share, but now
sells at par and pays 4 per cent. divl-
dends. Its September earnings broke
all records, just as the Atchison did
for October, and 1t is now earning net
over 10 per cent. on its large capital
cation. Any number of small roads
have had the same experience, coming
out of bankruptcy into prosperity that
is marvellous when compared with
past history. All this began on the
farm and Is keeping up.
The growth of the West Is rapidly
introducing new factors in American
life, and the time has gone by when
they can be sneered at. With the
growth of riches there must follow the
cultivation of the arts and sciences,
and gradually the rawness of the West
will disappear 1t is to be hoped there
will be no corresponding sacrifice Of
Western manhood.-Louisville Courier
Journal

she looked like a woman of 30 years.
Not word of complaint escaped her.
Her work went on She was gentle as
ever. In her room she had portrait
of her lover and some few poor things
he had given to her. She put these out
of sight. They have wonderful powers
of repression and endurance, these lit
tie women. Gone were her dreams, her
visions. In her heart was the memory
of the face and form she had loved, and
all of life ahead of her was gray. She
did not slaclIen in her slavish devotion
to the gray figure in the chair, which
saw nothing of her trouble and would
have been reused to violent anger If it
had known.
There came day when Francois
Regnier asked in due form for her
hand, His suit was instantly granted
by the father and Bebee was called in
to be told of it. She reeled almost to
falling and raised her little hands In
protest and entreaty.
My father! My Father!" she said.
1T cannot be. Do you not remembers"
Monsieur Regnier," the old man re-
piled, loves you. He esteems ME-. He
sees In ME the last male representative
of the De Bonmarche's. He appreciates
the honor and alliance with our family
will bring to him. He will aid us in re-
storing the vanished glory of our house.
| wish it. This union is vitality neces-
sary to ME. 1t shall be-"
She hid her crimson face behind a
bent arm and walked slowly from the
room. 1t was her first and only protest.
When Sabbath bells peal on the air
of early morning in Pointe Cachee
little figure in sober gray steals its way
to church, prayerbook held In the
clasped hands. 1t enters the portal and
soon Is upon its knees In front Of the
altar, its head bowed. The narrow
shoulders may be shaken, but no sound
Of sobbing comes When 1t rises and
turns toward the door 1t shows face
still beautiful, though pale and set.
The old woman who keeps the pews
clean will whisper to the inquirer that
II is Nine Regnier. 1t Is she who was
"Bebee," and she Is as one dead.

AMERICAN oUTcAsT IN JAPAN.
Degenerate American Who Was at
One Time a Great Specialist.

According to DR.. Barr, a well-known
mental specialist in the United States,
there is living in Japan an American
millionaire, who, instead Of living in
luxury and ease. prefers life among the
outcasts OF the far East.
Years ago he was one Of the greatest
specialists in America, and was provid-
ed with vast sums Of money for the
purchase OF such instruments and as
sistance as he needed.
His reputation was very great, and he
amassed a fortune Of over e2,000,000.
Then he took to dissipation. which soon
led to his downfall, and though rich
and handsome, with cultured and aes-
thetic tastes. he wandered away from
the United States and took up a life
Of revolving excuses among the ham
ms" or grave-diggers, and social out
casts Of Japan.
He caused his body to be tattOed over
every inch Of it's surface, and after a
time returned to America. exhibiting
the work Of the Oriental tattOoers to
any one who would care to look at II.
A great Dragon, perfectly shaded in
every detail, adorned his back, while
other designs were scattered over other
parts Of his body.
He was, however, cut by all his old
friends, and turned out Of all the clubs,
and subsequently returned to japan.

pissed "hamins." be wandered about the

EXERCISE FOR WEAK HEARTS.
The Patient Should Bear in Mind That
He is Not in Training for an Alpine
EIuh

1t is not many years ago that the be-
lief prevailed that a sufferer from
heart-disease was in constant peril
whenever he moved, and that the
nearer he approached absolute rest
the better 1t was for his heart. This
is still true In respect to certain forms
of NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. due to actual
disease or degeneration of the heart
muscle; but when the disease is In the
valves, as it is in the aJority of cases,
the modern teaching is that properly
regulated exercise is beneficial. This
Is founded upon the common-seEse
view that the heart is like other mus
Giles in that it can be strengthened by
exercise to meet increased calls upon
it.
When the valves of pump get out
of order 1t requires greater force to
move given quantity of water; If this
force can be applied it will make up
for the defect in the valves. The same
principle holds good in the case of the
diseased heart; the valular defect
must be made good-"compensation
Is the medical term for this process
by increased strength in the heart
muscle.
The heart must be able not only
to meet the ordinary, everyday extra
strain,-this it does automatically, as
it were, by the unaided efforts of ma,
ture,-but 1t must be stronger than
necessary, just as it is in health, to
meet some extra strain caused by i'll
ness, sudden nervous shock or some
absolutely necessary eXertion. 1t is
evident, therefore, that a diseased
heart must to assure the safety of the
patient, be strengthened beyond the
requirement of quiet life.
This is accomplished In various
ways, but none is better for the pUr-
pose than hill-climbing or stair-climb-
ing, the former for pleasant days, the
latter for bad weather. The exercise
should, Of course, be taken under the
