Madeleine had come into the re-

Jacques had passed her on the road,
leading her tiny bit Of a sister, that
eventful morning when they were
all caught in the doWn-pour, that
painted rainbow on the western

though everyone cot duclling, for

things that they did not all know,
and was willing to show them and
to teach them. For one thing, she
knew the art of making flowers,
and certain kinds of lace that they
had never seen. She had learned
many things in the convent. She
was kind to the young girls, and
ready and would shew them how to
make pretty cap or bonnet, or
lovely apron. They would come
about her like bees about a hive,
and the little shop was sort Of

what YOU are talking about, my
reader 1t is an anomaly to see a
man intoxicated in southern France.
1t is the vices, the adulteration OF

that cts the world all wrong. 1t is
a sad, sad truth that cities endangey
humanity every day. Many so to

God in going
1t began to be talked over again
by Jacques which was the better
route to Paris? He wished to keep
outside the towns a. much as pos
sible, and to learn what he could Of
the country; and lhcn as q happy
thought it came to him, why could
they not go in their own little cart?
1t was covered and light, and the
horse was a strong, sturdy roadster
They could put in small trunk,
l'dCk hamper 10 last 4 week, take
a convenience for making coffe, and
buy anything needed on the way.
They could be independent and
happy. They would stop at a good
inn at night, and see that the horse
was fed and groomed, starting off
early in the morning. The Cure
could tell them of the first rest and
many other points, and also give to
them few letters in case thew
could make use of them on the way.
SO they already felt quite at home,
as to the journey. Medicines

dainty, brown-eyed maiden. And
she was a sensible, unaffected girl,
as well-bred French are, no jewelry,
no finery, no airs. And now, moth
ing would do but Madeleine. The
whole world held but one woman
for him, ever1nore. Would anyone
be that foolish to argue with a
lover?
The choicest flowers of the gar
den were watched and guarded to
send to Madeleine. The young
linnet just starting into song, must
have a golden cage and go to Mad
eleine. The sweetest berries, the
juciest fruit, must go. There must
be a new stamp for the butter, and
Jeanette must make a perfect pat
to send. A handsome jug Of French
pottery, and in it the thicllest cream
oh, was there ever such a crazy
lover? Yes, they are all the same,
all the same. And for a home-com-
ing there would have to be a new
room built on. and an arbor with
vines and roses, and beautiful paper
on the walls, and carpet of flowers,
and chest OF drawers and prettiest
china, and an Enolish tea table, and
a sewing-chair, he would buv them
all and after two years they would
go to Parir and have a real wedding
journey. And how was all this to
little denure Madeleine? Would
she leave her home, her parents,
and bic brothers and tiny Elise?
She was sure she had never seen
any eyes ANYTHING like Tacqucsl!
And before the vintage was gath
cred in that wear. the GOOD priest
had given them his blessing; and
Henri had sent to them a set of
perfect horseshoes There was
n1erriment and rejoicing through
out the countryside when Mad
eleine came home to share Jacques
fortune for good or i'll, for richer or
poorer
Jacques had taken in a good man
and good journeyman, to be his
constant help; so that with the lad
who was handy and clever, and
Jeanette, his mother, Il widow who
could manage the little dairy and
help Madeleine, the little household
went bravely on. All who came

have Madeleine wait upon them, for

DIScOUNTING DEFEAT.
Englishmen Say the Last CUP Defen-
der Was Manned by a
Dutch Crew.

It is curious that Englishmen are
questioning the international character
of the American yacht race for the first
time; for in the true sense of the word.
it never has been a struggle between
Englishmen and Americans, but be-
tween Englishmen and Englishmen.
and Englishmen and Americans, says
the King.
"The America, which carried off the
famous cup, was designed by an Eng
Iishman,- who. with his brother, navi-
gated her across the Atlantic.
Later on it was Scot who owned the
defender.
Last time the American yacht was
commanded by Scotch skipper and
manned by a Dutch crew.
If the English depended on American
skill in this way we should hear OF it,
but apparently John Bull is reused at
last. He objects to the employment Of
British sails in the Reliance, which is
supplied by Ratsey, of Isle of Wight
fame.
Yachtsmen this side of the water nat
urally maintain that sails are a most
important feature of a yacht. and If
they are British in the American boat,
the contest ceases to be International.

Mayor Seaman has received nothing
but praise for his action in having
the sidewalks cleared Of all obstruc-
tions. It was great benefit to every
one, people and merchants alike, and
the Mayor deserves the praise he re-
ceiyed. We would now respectfully
call His Honor's attention to the low
awnings which cover half the side
walks on our principal thoroughfares.
Everyone has something to say about
them. Not even the real short people
escape and more than one woman has
been seen TO look real cross and pro-
ceed to arrange her hair and straight
en- her hat after coming in contact
with one of these distractions. 1t is
a familiar sight to see men of ordinary
size go ducking and lodging along
the street as if trying to sneak out of
sight of someonea
OF course the merchants do not
mean to cause such annoyance to those
who pass their stores but they cannot
help but notice what effect thS low
awnings have. They have to protect
the, goods from Che hot sun and they
are right in doing so, but it would be
a great public relief If they would
have the awnings higher.

Of about 10000 postage stamps. is ON

Is of four panels. The handsome frame
with ledge on top shelf, is of ouartered
oak, the dark, English weathered vari-

panels, which are completed entirely
of cancelled postage stamps of eyerv de-

a tenth Of cent. Not only is every ma

in postage stamps lend themselves ad.

a capable staff of Chinese servants. An
executive committee of three purchase
all the supplies, and its authority is r-l-
questioned. The club Is run on a fam
lily plan and each family has table of
It's own. There is a table d'hote for the
unmarried members. After four years
OF trial the women declare that the club
means a saving of about 80 per cent. in

AUSTRIA's STATE SECRETS.
They Are Placed for Security I'm Iron
Rooms of House Built Ex-

The Austrian imperial archives have
been lately conveyed from the Hofburg
to the great house built for them adj
joining the foreign Office. They will
later on be opened for public inspec-
tion, from the most ancient documents
down to those of 1910, says the London
Telegraph. The rooms containing the
secret archives are of ironwork, each
story being completely separated from
the next one, SO that neither fire nor
water can penetrate. Hose supplying
abundance Of water is fixed in every di-
rection, the windows can neither be
melted by fire nor destroyed by blows
and the ornamental ironwork before
each window can be unlocked in case
Of emergency.

naparte invaded Austria and estab-
iished himself at Schonbrunn with
what terrible haste the secret archives
were carried OF to Buda-Pesth to the

EDITORIAL COMMENT.

The latest idea promulgated by the
hard working scientist is that mos
quitoes can be killed by music. The
free concerts in this city will begin
Monday night and the experiment will
be watched with interest. Everybody
will look for the effect of the music
on the mosquitoes in River View Park
and in Lafayette Park next Monday.
Bandmasters Anon and Wagner will
conduct.
Will the mosquitoes be paralyzed
when ''Mr. Dooley" has his inning,
or will they continue to do business
at the old stand Jersey City Journal.
If the mosquito pest ls worse this
year than it has ever previously been
known, so much the more reason for
following up every possible plan chat
promises to exterminate them. What
has Deen done hitherto is the merest
bit Of experiment here or there. The
battle must be waged along the whole
line. Newark Evening News.
The suggestion has been made that
a commemorative statue of James A.
Bradley shall be erected on the shore
front at Asbury Park. If ever man
deserved statue, it is Mr.. Bradley.
He has done much for Asbury Park,
which he founded, and which would
be expected to take the initiative in
such movement; but there are many
people in the country who would be
glad to contribute toward statue to
the man who has given to them such
delightful vacation spot, and who
has for more than quarter of CEN
tury contributed to their enjoyment =
