Patrick arose slowly to his feet, and

him even now tugged at my heart.
With the glorious smile of conscious
rectitude playing upon his features, he
said slowly and reTerently:

with the quiet dignity of Il bishop.
There was something in the mans
serene firmness which marked him as
a strong character and commanded my
respect, though it did not endear him to
me. He did his work with the utmost
mysterious degree. had no cronies to
consume his time, drank no strong liq-
uors-in short, was model gardener
yet could not like him. My brother
in-law sought to convince me that it
was Patrick's physical deformities
which offended me. for he was short,
knotty person with a malformed back
which resulted in lower limbs so dis
torted that he ''toed OUT almost at
right angles to the direction in which
he walked, or hobblcd rather. His face
was an insolvable puzzle. Every de-
tail of it, judged by itself, was unpre-
possessing, yet as Il whole it was al
most beatific. 1t seemed fairly to
shout, Here amid all this usliness is
a conscience utterly free from sin!'
And l think it was this seeming incon-
gruity--this apparently impossible yet
obviously present innocence-together
with his serene, almost patronizing. air
Of soul superiority, which resented in
our gardener.
In the fall, when the grapcvines had
been covered for the winter. we let
Patrick go and saw no more of him I'M
til the following st. Patricll's day.
AS we sat waiting for the procession
we saw lone hOrScman whom we
took to be some officer of the day take
a stand beside the roadway half a
block above us. He wore Il great cloak
which covered his body and fell al
most to his Stirrups. On his head was
queer looking cap, shaped somewhat
in the semblance of a bishops inter.
When the procession came along, this
horscman raised his arms as if he were
pronouncing 4 bencdicti0n upon the
marchers and turned his face reverent-
ly upward. The physical task of keep
ing his arms aloft bearing upon them
the weight of the great cloak. must

him to tell anything more concerning
this wonderful snake or how it had
been so happily destroyed. Beyond the
fact that he had killed it for the good
and glory of mankind he was as inn
mOvably silent as the rocks.
One evening in June as l was coming
home DR.. Graham met me at the cor

had greatly disturbed him, though he

AT THE SHOW.

A full house greeted the production
of Arizona at the theatre Saturday
night. This play by Augustus Thom-
as has been pronounced by many crit
les the 'truly American play for
which everybody ha, so long been on
the lookout. 1t certainly deals with
a distinctly American type of life.
The theme of course is universal in
its application. To us in this part of
the country who know something
about the cattle ranch existence,
Arizona was doubly interesting.
The caste of characters was splendid.

W. Cope was fini she'd and artistic
piece of dramatic work The lady
who played Bonita used her eyes a
trifie too much. 1t can be overdone,
you know. Estrella, the beautiful
woman involved in much of the trou-
BILE, realized the demands of the part
admirably. That listlessness of
which some complained was really a
part of her imDersonation. Sergeant
Keller could hardly have been done
better. The rest of the cast w ere un-
iformly good without being unusually
so. John Ferris characterization of
Sam Wung the Chinese cook was a
true bit of acting. He had very little
to do in the play, but that little he
did perfectly.
The company could not use all its
scenery on account of limitations of
the local stage. What they did put
ON was realistic and effective.

A PAYING NATIONAL INVEST
MENT.

When Alaska was purchased by the
United States in 1867 its value was
lightly regarded. The price paid
$1,000, O,000--was thought to be excess
sive, and there was much popular op-
position to the terms. Yet in thirty
six years the government has receiv-
ed back in revenues not only the sum
expended, but 100000 more. Dur
ing the same period Alaska and the
adjoining Canadian Yukon territory
have supplied fish, furs, and mine pro-
ducts amounting in value, at conser-
vative estimate, to 1876, ,000, 900. Goods
worth about s40,00O,00O a year are now
sent back in return, and the amount
of American, English and Canadian
capital invested there is probably not
less than $125,000, ,000.-The Worlds

DOES ADVERTISING PAY

The value of judicious advertising
was never better or more aptly illus
trated than in the experience of Nc
Intosh & Walters, the real estate men,
who recently sold an entire addition
to the city-Oak Place-a week in ad-
vance of the date of sale and whose
methods are given prominence else
where in this paper, in detail. Messrs.
Mcintosh & Walters were imbued with
the very sensible idea that practically
any reasonable expenditure of money
in newspaper advertising was justified
If warranted by results. They did not
bubble as to price or amount of space.
They secured pages and half pages of
preferred space in the local press and
filled them with plain, business-like
well worded announcements. In the
face of the phenomenal sales effected
as direct result of this advertising,
it would be rank folly to contend that
people do not read advertisements or
that advertising does not pay. This
is case in point that refutes any such
