"Yf HAVE DONE It UNTO ME-"



90 HE sur was slipping behind the
fringe of trees across the field
when Zeb Fulton reached the
end of the rows. With an effort he
Strengthened himself. The hoe fell to
the ground. He unwound q red hand
kerchief from about his neck, wiped
over his face, and, turning, let his eyes
wander over the patch of cotton. Some
thing like a groan escaped him. 1t
looked a hopeless task; excepting for a
few dozen rows that he had hoed, cot
tor could scarcely be seen in the rank
weeds.
Zeb Fulton had moved into the Glib
town neighborhocd, in the early winter,
from the Clear Greek country. There
he had owned a small farm; but, his
wife falling sick, he had mortgaged it
that he might pay doctors bills. A
crop failure forced him to turn over
the farm to his creditors. With an in
valid wife and four helpless children
it had been difficult for him to rent a
farm. Landowners wanted men that
had a ''good force of hands" The
cabin and little hillside patch was the
best he could do. Under favoring cir.
cumstances it did not promise much.

hopeless.
He walked slowly toward the cabin

the bedside, the baby on his knee.
How have you been resting, Mol
lie?" he asked, a shade of anxiety il
his voice.
There was a movement in tn
quilts; a thin hand was stretched ou
to him. Fulton took 1t tenderly be

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE9

You are going to do great things, you
say
But what have you done?
You are going to win in a splendid way,
AS others have won;
You have plans that when they are put
in force
Will make you sublime;
You have mapped out a glorious upward
course
But why don't you climb?
You're not quite ready to start, you say;
If you hope to win
The time to be starting is now-to-day-
Don't daily, begin!
No man has ever been ready as yet,
Nor ever will be;
hopes are set
But try it and see.
You are going to do great things, you say,
You have splendid plans;
Your dreams are of heights hat are far
away;
They're a hopeful mans
But the world, when it judges the case
for you,
At the end. my son,
Will think not of what you were going
TO do,
But of what you've done.

it presented the appearance of having
undergone a general r%enovating. There
was snowy linen on the bed, and it was
wheeled to where his wife, dressed in
a clean wrapper, could look through
the sunshine across the valley. A faint
color had crept into her cheeks and
brightness into her eyes. The chill
dren, with clean dresses and faces,
looked tidier than for many a day. The
baby sat on a quilt on the loor playing
with a new rag doll.
Some of the women were in the
kitchen getting dinner that they had
brought, and behind the shed he could
hear the sound of scrup-boards as 9TH
ers busily washed the soiled clothes
that had accumulated in the house for
weeks.
Fulton glanced about him obviously,
not knowing just how to adjust himself
to the situation.
'Now, lest sit down by yore wife an
rest to-day" said one of the women
stepping in from the kitchen. We're

The door closed and Fulton was left
alone with his wife. The baby still
cooed owe the rag doll. He sat in ST.
lence, holding his wife's hand, his eyes
rested on the men in the field and the
baby on the floor.
The next Sunday morning, Fulton,
the baby on his knee, sat on the door
step looking across the valley to where
the housetops and spire of the village
church had glistened in the sun. He
had been gazing some time through the

He took the children into the she'd
room and closed the door. A fire kin
died and supper placed on the stove,
he took down the milk pail and went
down to some matched stalls to milk
and feed the cow, the children follow
ing at his heels.
DR.. Gaines and the village preacher,
Fora PERTH, were engaged in CONVEX
sation when Fulton reached the doc
tors office that night. So it happened
that the Rev. PERTH learned of Fulton's
sick wife. The next morning he drove
out. 1t was late in the day when he
reached the cabin, and Fulton had al
ready gone to the field.
The minister didn't remain long. At
ter speaking a few words to the sick
woman and the children, he prayed
and took his departure. He saw at a
glance that other things than prayers
and words of sympathy were needed.
He spent the morning visiting neigh.
boring farms. When he returned home,
late that evening, tired with the days
work, he felt hat it had not been in
vain.
At noon, when Fulton was told OF
the preachers visit, he said nothing
but a queer expression came on his
face. Whether of approval or resent
ment it was hard to tell.
The next morning he was clearing
away the breakfast dishes and trying
to quiet a fretful child when he
CHANGED to glance out of the door. He
was almost startled. A dozen men were
hoeing industriously in the cottoI
patch. He stood for some minutes re
, garding them, dazed. He was not 6
J hard man, and, touched by the unex
( pected show of kindness, a tear cam
into his eye; rolled down his cheek
r splashed on the plate he was drying
In a moment he was ashamed of TIT

d; room. "The neighbors are hoeing il

There was a little smothered cry o
joy.

o Fulton picked up his hoe and walke'
d toward the men. They saw him az
preaching. One of them stepped out t
meet him.
"We've treated you shabby, Mr.. Flu

THE SHANNON COMPANY.

 Shannon stock, to which attention Sss called in my letter two or three soeSs ago, has recently been stronger The ac diticn 10 the company's concen- srating plant is expected to be com pleted within six weeks, and from @hen on its production should show an increase Of fully 60 per cent. At first si was the arrangements plan to run she second furnace Cnly a part of the dime, after starting the addition to its concentrator, but a custom smelling contract has been closed with the Standard Consolidated. and it now seens quite probable that the smelter Siil be operated to its full capacity during the greater portion of the pres Snt year
 The Clifton district, where the Shan Don's properties are located. has had steady growth since operations be gan there. its ores are low grade. 1ut are very extensive anc so consti- &utea that their copper contents can tse extracted at a cist of about 1-2 gents per pound The Shannon cora- Dany owns a very large area in the t9est part of ;he camp. and develop snent work to date shows it 10 be very valuable. Its claims were bought sev- Srai years ago. and were they in their original condition new they could not Se purchased for less than several times the price paid by the Shannon company.

We wonder if the new equipment will receive a new equip meat for use therein? For instance, the car Nc IS. now in operation un- der charge of a conductor too, serves one glass cf water and one napkin for two persons. Then they have beau tiful line of East-Liverpool run of the kiln" cups, handsomely decorated with large sized cracks and chips out of the rims, which ornament these beau tifuIly while the saucers graduate from Haviland Cafe Noirs to pudding dishes.

 Phoenix. Jan. 29.-Colonel NJ. H. McCord in the discharge Of his official duties Ss United States E2arshal for Rrizona, has encountered a dilemma, and at present can see nc way out Of it.
 Some time ago one Quong Wing, a Chinese. was arrested at Kingman for being unlawfully in the country, and on trial was ordered deportel. Colo nel McCoTd usually collects several Chinese before making a trip to San Francisco, so Quons was held in the Kingman jail for a while While there he became violently insane. Colonel McCord communicated this fact tc the federal officials, and they ordered him 70 deport the Chinese just the same.
 Preparations were made to send him out with the Corea, which sails for China February 2, but the steamship officials have refused to accept him for transportation, on account of his insane condition. But the officials Of the government insist that he shall be deported and look to Colonel Mc- Co-d 10 perform this duty. As con sequence. the marshal finds himself with a Chinaman on hands. whom he can neither hold nor turn loose.

The cost Of mining operations in ev- cry branch of the business should be ascertained by the manager, and this can only be accomplished by the em- ployment Of efficient men to supervise esch branch of the work. together with z comprehensive, ccmmonsense sys- lem of bookkeeping. It is only by insugurating and maintaining such a system that the best results may be accomplished.
