TO CUT TIE PENSION FUND.
Mr.. Towill wanted to reduce the
pension appropriation from $500, 600
$50 900. He spoke clOqucntly Of the
valor OF the Confederate soldiers, and
fcclingly Of their stringent crcum-
stances. Rut the pension appropria-
tlon fails to remedy their SullcrinyS
and there is need OF economy.
Mr.. Thomas believed that if the
pension rolls arc properly revised,
$50, 600 would go rs far us 5000, 900

FOR THE ECONOMICAL WOMAN.
Which Does She Prefer,-2 Pound
Package of Malt Breakfast Food or
- 2.Ounce Of Others?

| Weigh the loosely packed, flaky con-
tents of one of the large packages of
any of the "ready-to-eat" cereals on
the market. and you will be surprised
| to see that the weight is only twelve
or fourteen ounces. Compare it with
! the full weight two-pound package of
Malt breakfast Food, and it is easy to
see where you get the most food for
| your money.
| Another important point to keep in
mind is that Malt Breakfast Food is to
be cooked in your own home. When it
is brought on the table a steaminghot
dish of delicate flavor and unequaled
nutrition, that two-pound package has
become twelve pounds of real food.
Malt Breakfast Food is the original
malt wheat cereal. 1t is the result of
years OF successful experience. 1t is
not fad: 1t is honest food, the favorite
breakfast dish with those who enjoy
6ood food and wish to be thoroughly
nourished 1T is not simply brain food,
but food for both brain and body.
The leading hotels, such as the Wal
dorf-Astoria, the Touraine, the Audi
torium always have it on their break
fast menu, and it is the favorite cereal
in the homes of those who always want
the best, no matter what the cost Yet
your own experience will prove it the
most economical.
The beautiful pictures now packed
with the food are doing much to intro
duce Malt Breakfast Food. In addition
to a small photograph in each package,
large carbon photographs of the finest
quality, duplicates of those costing two
or three dollars at the art stores, are
given in return for coupons taken from
The packages. This is an unusual OPP
portunity to adorn the home without
expense.
Your grocer will tell you that Malt
Breakfast Food gives the most salts

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features OF. the Days Dealings in All
the Leading Stocks.

(. New York, April 3-There was another
neaVy selling movement in the stock mar
ket, TINS morning. which apparently over
reached the market judging from the
scramble by the shorts to cover durin z
the last hour when the supply of stocks
mad become scarce. This led to a lively
rally and Il general recovery of prices to
above last nights level The rally was not
wen held, however, owing to the evidence
or renewed realizing and the satisfaction
OF the more urgent demand from the
shorts. AS a result the closing was easy
and below the top level on the rally. The
apDreciable relaxation of the tension in the
money market and a confidence that the
factors at work would bring still further
relief, next week, were the dominant in
tiuences in the rally. The morning selling
was primarily due to the bad influence
of Il violent break in Southern Pacific to
53I, which aroused fears for the position
OF the pool The apparently endless
stream of liquidation in Pennsylvania was
also turned into the market afresh, car
ry1ng the price to Il new low Level on the
movement at 49,. The movement in South
rern Pacific became very feVeriSh in the

THE LOST HEN.
An Attempt to Make an Augusta Gar
den and it's Sequel

It is reported in polite circles that
there is quite likely to be a rupture in
the diplomatic relations between two
households that live and have their be-
ing not far from Chestnut street, over
the mysterious disappearance of one
of a fine flock of hens. The story does
not come from a member of either
household, but from an outsider who
was let into the secret, and who gave
it away in hopes that by so doing the
rightful owner of the hen might be able
to recover her property without being
Obliged to resort to extreme measures
1t seems that the son and heir of one
household is of an agricultural turn of
mind, and has been devoting his ener-
gies of late toEthe cultivation of gar
den. A neighbours hens, also, have be-
come quite as deeply interested in the
matter as the young man himself, so
much so, in fact, that he has planted
his early peas over three or four times
on that account. Naturally the young
man was annoyed by the veto which
the hens put on his efforts at pea Gull
ture, and he requested the owners to
shut up the poultry. 1t is not known
whether or not his request was COM
piled with, but if 1T was, the hens got
out, and have been getting out at stat
ed periods ever since.
Seeing that more drastic measures
must be employed to rid himself of his
feathered companions, the young man
issued manifesto to the effect that if
those hens were not kept out of his gar
den, there might be something happen
to them, and he went to bed that night
thinking that the implied threat might
bring about the desired result. But
therein was he disappointed, for when
he went out to work in the garden the
next morning, over came the hens and
gathered round him in expectancy, hop
ing that he might plant a few more
peas for thcir delectation.
It was then that the temperature I'M
der the young mans collar increased
to such an extent that he cast forbear-
ancc to the winds, and Selling the fat
est hen in the bunch. he chucked her
under his arm, and retired to the cellar,
to think over the best means of dispos-.
ing of her.
! 1t is said that at first the opinion
within him was almost unanimous for
the passage Of the death sentence, but
his conscience was opposed to it, and
finally the sentence was committed to
imprisonment in the cellar for an in-
definite period. And thinking perhaps
that the hen might lay few eggs, and
thereby help pay her board. the young
man got some straw and made her q
nest.
Meanwhile the owner of the hen is
wondering at her fate. All the dogs in
the neighhorhood are under suspicion
and it may be that the finger of sus-
picior has a tendency to point in the
young mans direction. 1t is thought
10y some that a clarvoyant may be en-
Dloycd to solve the mystery, but be
that as it may, when the truth does
come out. as il eventually will, there is
likely to come Il breach between those
two households which years cannot
close.

The Miracle.

1.-THE sun he sadly said, "can shine no
more"
AS from her grave he slowly turned
away
The people saw the hopeless look he wore
And in their hearts they pitied him that
day.
A week, a month, a year rolled past, and
10!
One morning when the slopes were
moist with dew
A maid whose dimpled cheeks were all
aglow
Stood smiling where the purple blossoms
blew.
The wanton zephyrs dallied with her hair,
Her poise was beautiful, her face SUD-
lime,
But he went on and left her standing
there
And didn't even look a second time.
