'Now that 1t is all over, | don't mind
telling you that is the girl that had
chosen for youto marry"
She looked up Mt him over the great
bunch of pink roses that she held in
her arms and from under the soft chif-
f0n of her white hat, and he looked
down at her out of deep set eyes un-
der shaggy brows. Then his glance
followed hers down the long distance
Of the room. resting on the girl who
stood there beneath Il bower of palms,
The cloudy masses of her white veil

and bushes as she received congratu-

strange sweetness of 1t all.

great pauses of incredulity between
Wilton's words, and the slow smile
that came into his eyes was not one of
vanity, rather of great pleasure in an
unexpected compliment.

Provisions from Trees.

There is a tree which grows in Sumatra, Algeria and China which is known as the vegetable tallow tree. From it's fruit large quanti- ties of oil and tallow are extract ed, and the fruit is gathered in November or December, when all the leaves have fallen. Excellent candles are made from the berries of a tree which grows in some parts of South Africa and the Azores. At Sierra Leone is found the cream fruit tree, the fruit of which is very agreeable in taste. In Ceylon there is the breadfruit tree, from which a food is made in the same way that we make bread. ssaid to be equally good and nu- tritious. In South America we find the milk tree.-Philadelphis Ledger.

JAPAN'S RAPID PROGRESS,
Has Converted HefDelf Into . Power. full Nation in the Last Quarter
 of Century.

When visited Yeddo and the ports of Japan in the winter oi l860-61 the country was ruled upon the most exclusive Japanese methods, wrote Lord Wolseley in the Cosmopolitan in 1895. The people were held in subjection by a hereditary nobility who ruled them with a rod of iron. They were then far behind China in all matters connected with sea pow CT, for in order to prevent any communication with foreign places all Japanese junks were, in accordance with the law, con structed with low, open sterns, so that they dared not venture be. yond a few miles from shore.
 No one can be blind to the enor. nous strides in progress Japan has made, the immense reforms she has effected and the powerful nation she has converted herself into during the last quarter of a century. The result is the crea. tion of power in the eastern seas that must in future be always taken into consideration by west. ern statesmen.

MAIDS EVASlVE ANSWER.
Her Employer Was Busy and Could Not Receive Callers-What
 She Told Them

Strange as it may seem, says the Philadelphia Telegraph, there is a public man in this city who is blessed or cursed with a tender conscience that worries him in small matters as we'll as in great. Among the things that he cannot justify to himself is the bidding a servant to say that he is not at home when in reality he is inside his house. At the same time he is not able to receive many visitors who call upon him, and his only resource was to give instructions that polite excuses should be given. Upon one occa sion such instructions were given to maid, an Irish girl gifted with the readiness and good wit of her nation.
 "Then I'm to be saying, sir, that you're not at homer the maid in. quired.
 "No, Mary, no" was the reply; "that would not be true. If any one should ask for me, you must just put him off-give him some evasive answer, you know"
 "I'll do it, sir, never fear," was the maids reply. Mary was al good as her word.
 That afternoon a person of i'm portance made his appearance, and was duly sent away. Tho faithful maid reported the cir cumstance to her employer.
 "What did you do, Mary?" in quired the latter, with some trep idation.
 "Oh, just put him of, sir as you told me. I gave him an evasive answer"
 "Yes, but what did you say to him?"
 "Oh, sure he axed me if the boss was at home, and l said to him Was his grandmother a mon key?"

Turkish Beds.

A recent writer on Turkey says: "Bedsteads are not used by the Turks. Each room contains a large cupboard, built into the wall, in which the bedding is piled during the day, and at night the slaves come in when summoned to make up the beds on the floor. Other bedroom requisites, fin the shape of washstands, dressing tables and wardrobes, are dis. pensed with as superfuous. For everyday ablution there is a small washing room with hole in the floor for the water to escape through, and if the hanun would wash her hands and face only, q slave brings the ewer and basin and pours the water over her hands. For special ablutions she will go either to her own private hammam or to the public baths. She does her hair,' or has it done for her, seated cross-legged in her corner of the divan; and the old walnut wood chests and coffersjn her treasure-room suffice to store her gauges and brocades, her silks and embroideries."

FEAR OF GERMAN INVASION
Not Warranted by Number of Kaiser's Subjects at Present Residing in
 South America.

German migration to South America, and especially to some of the southern states of Brazil, is periodically a cause of com. ment and concern to some who think they see therein a sinister scheme of imperial conquest. For two or three strong reasons, says the New York Tribune, such fears seem to us to be not we'll founded. One such reason is that the number of Germans in Brazil is not, after all, ominOus- ly large. The total population of Brazil, according to the census of 1890, was IA, 4,333,915. No later census returns are available, but careful estimates now place the total at more than 17,O00,000, of which number less than 3,O00,000 are Indians and negroes, leaving certainly more than 14,OOO,OOo whites. Of these, in 1901, only 2,7O0,O00 were immigrants, and of the latter number only 300,00O were Germans.
 The latest and highest esti. mate of the number of Germans in Brazil is only 450,000, or lit tie over three per cent. of the whole. Really, we cannot regard that as dangerous percentage. Nor does it represent the largest foreign element, by any means. Portuguese immigrants into Bra gil are twice as numerous, and Italians three times as numer- ous, as the Germans. Nor yet are these Germans so massed i'll certain states as to form ma- jority of their population, as some have imagined. Germans are most numerous in Rio Grande do Sul, where there are 100000 of them, but the whole popula tion of the state is 900, 1000, so that the Germans are less than One-fourth. In Santa Catha. rina the Germans are 100, ,O00 in total of 3OO,O00, or one-third, the largest proportion in any state. In Parana they are 47,0O0 in 2SO,OO0, and in Sac Paulo 30,- 900 in 1,43O,OO0.
 It is pointed out as ominous that these Germans continue to use their own language, to pub fish newspapers in German and to demand the official use of that language in courts and schools. We'll, the same may be said of Germans in New York, and in Milwaukee, and in many other parts of the United States.
 The conquest which Germany hopes for in Brazil is not polit- ical, but commercial. The profit she looks for in this migration of her subjects is to be found in in' creased commerce. In that Ger. many reckons shrewdly. Every shipload of Germans landed in Brazil creates a demand for many shiploads of German man. ufactured goods. Every so-called German colony in Brazil means market for German trade. Upon this feature of the case too much stress cannot easily be laid.

MT B. l.. Hawkins, l23 West 27th
 St., New York City, Says:

"T have used Paracamph in severe case \ of Rheumatism, and will say that got immediate, relief. I have tried almost every preparation that is now before the public, and find that Paracamphis is with out question the best remedy for Rheu- matism. wish you success and heartily recommed Paracamph 7"
 MT Hawkins is only one out of many thousands that have been cured by the wonderful penetrating remedy Paracamph This new remedy is a scientific prepara- ton which when applied, opens the pores of the skin, allowing the soothing, cool ing oils to penetrate to seat of the ailment, removing the soreness and congestion, drawing out the fever and inflammation by inducing sweating. It sweats out the pain and aches, and this is Natures plan.
 Don't ruin your stomach with strong internal medicines for Rheumatism, Neu- ralgia, Sore Joints, etc. We guarantee Paracamph to relieve and cure youi used as directed. If it fails your druggist will refund your money. If your druggist don't handle Paracamph ask him to get for you.
 If he won't do this send direct to us. But don t take any substitute because there isnothing just as good. Paracamph is sold only in 25 cent, 50 cent, and $1 .oo bottles.
 The 50 cent size contains three times as much as the 25 cent size; the $1.o bottles eight times as much as the 25 cent size.

MOVING WEST.

The migration of the people today
from the older sections to the new
ones is no such momentous undertake
ing as it was fifty years ago. Today a
car is ordered and loaded with the
stock and belongings Of the mover, and
in few hours he is landed within a
days journey at least of his new home.
In the old times this moving to the I'M
settled west meant the procuring of OK
teams and several wagons, which had
to be covered, the loading of these
wagons with the furniture and food
supplies, the farm tools and the chick
ems, one wagon better fixed up than
the rest for the family home for a six
weeks pilgrimage. The stock was all
driven and soon learned to follow the
caravan. About twelve miles a day
We're made and sometimes not that for
in the unbridged and unwOrked condi-
ton of the roads it often happened
that all the oxen, six or eight yoke,
would have to be hitched to one wag-
ON to pull it through the almost bot
tomless sloughs. Under such circum-
stances not more than q mile or so
could be Travelled in day. There was
the camping out every night, the kill
ing of some wild game for meat
prairie chickens, plover, wild ducks,
and often nice string Of fish from
some nearby lake, to the young folks
at least thoroughly enjoyable expert
ence. At last the frontier was reached,
where fine land could be had for the
taking, and then came the building Of
a rough house, the breaking up of the
prairie sod and all the discomforts as
well as the pleasures of pioneer life.
Fifty miles from a market, ten miles
from store and physician, no
school, no church, but such health and
appetites, such good neighbors, really
so very few wants compared with the

The milk goats find their best devel-
opment in Switzerland and the island
of Malta, where they are made to serve
every purpose of the dairy cow. A
large importation of these goats is to
be made by the department of agricul-
ture with a view to introducing these
valuable animals into this country. Pos
sibly If goats were substituted for cows
1t might become the fad for our nice

The study of seeds and pulp in
vegetable life is an interesting one. In
all other fruits the seed is an objection,
and much effort has been and is being
made to originate seedless types, which
fact has been accomplished with the
orange, grape and in some degree with
plums and apples. With nuts the eff
fort has been to reduce the pulp for
nation or shell, and as a result we have
the paper shelled almonds and walnuts.

Most of the rape seed is grown in
Holland and England. The seed can
not be produced in the northern half of
the United States, as the plant like a
cabbage. does not produce seed until
the second year of its life. and the cold
winters destroy the roots. In Holland
and England the roots live over and
so produce seed. The producing of
COLA, or rape seed. is one of the best
paying industries on the farms of The
Netherlands reclaimed from the North
sea.

the steak is even and tender slip in a

minutes for each side, turning fire.

few drops of lemon juice over it and,
if you like it, few drops of worces-
