spread out the sheet. 81 cannot tell
you how kind and thoughtful Jim
Warwick continues to be. I couldn't
sleep last night, and he sat up with
me. He quite made me forget the
pain. And to think Of such a fine,
husky fellow bothering over a wretch

good enough for you, sis-and / can't
make it any stronger than that"
Her voice was clear and steady as
she read this, and her cheeks did not
flush.
Warwick started, but glib of tongue
as he usually was, he could think of
nothing to say.
The girl quickly refolded the letter.

this seems to be the first chance I

times at social gatherings, but you
have seemed to avoid me. Perhaps this

you gave me no chance to speak to
you about Arthur" Warwick tried to
say something, but she stopped him
again. Il had a letter from Arthur
yesterday that prompted me- to come
here" She lifted the letter from her
lap and held it lovingly. Then she laid
it down again.
"Where is Arthur" the young man
softly asked.
'In the Hawaiian Islands with a
trusty man. 1t seems to be the only
climate that will keep him alive. He
is on one of the smaller islands, high
up above the sea level. He can never
leave there"
Warwick nodded in profound sym
pathy.

"Waitv' she said, until have quite

LET me leave this subject for mo-

How to Be Happy.

Many of us miss the joys that
might be ours by keeping our eyes fix
ed on those of other people. No one
can enjoy his own opportunities for
happiness while he is envious Of an
others. We lose great deal of the
joy Of living by not cheerfully ac-
cepting the small pleasures that come
to us every day, instead Of longing
and wishing for what belongs to
others. We do not take any pleasure
in our own modest horse and car
rage, because we long for the automo-
bile or victoria that some one else
owns. The edge is taken off the en-
joyment of our own little home be-
cause we are watching the palatial
residence of our neighbor. We can
get no satisfaction out Of a trolley
ride into the country Or sail On a
river steamer, because some one else
can enjoy the luxury of his own car
rage or yacht Life his it's full meas
ure of happiness for every one of us,
if we would only make UP our minds
to make the most of every opportunity
that comes our way, instead of long
ing for the things that come our neigh
boris way.-Success.

A SONG.

A song rolled out Of heart day.
And it drifted distant bay.
1t carried message Of hope and cheer,
And its charm breathed in lstnlng ear;
For it soohed the brows that lined with care
And 1t stayed the white in the midnight hair;
1t whispered the calm of heart
And it stiled the ache in the troubled breast
psalm to defy all hopeless fears,
A song that will live for thousand years.

A Satisfactory Kitchen Table.

The kitchen table shares with the
range, or cook stove, the honor Of be-
ing the most important part Of the kit
chen's furnishing. If the table is in
convenient, the work of cooking Is
made needlessly harder. The design
shown herewith illustrates table that
represents not a little experience and
consideration of what goes to make the
most convenient table. It has a large
top, which keeps dishes and pans from
getting into ineXtricable confusion, and
it has a large number Of drawers,
which are always convenient, and also
closet room. Two slides pull out, on
which pans may be set when one is
sitting at work at the table; while in
the long space under the center Of the
table is a chance to hang multitude
Of kettles and other kitchen utensils.
These are protected from dust by a

The Thrifty Housewife.

1t is hOmely saying, that "a wo-
man can throw out with a spoon fas-
ter than man can throw in with a
Shovel" yet the truth of the old saw
has never been disputed. Given an
intelligent, Industrious s'bread-winner,'
as it is fashionable to call the person
who earns the funds which support
the home, and the thrift or want Of
thrift marking the career Of the family
will depend almost entirely upon the
habits Of the housewife in relation
to little matters. One Of the religious
papers recently presented this char
acterization of "the thrifty housewife"
and the portrait is so terse and true
that it might we'll be made a rule of
conduct in all homes where true pros
perity Is sought: "She takes note OF
the kitchen fire and closes up all the
hampers when she Is not using it, and
makes one fire do all the work it will
at once. She saves her nice 'drippings'
and makes them serve in cooking in
stead Of butter She saves all the
odds and ends of bread and meat left
over from meals and works them up
into appetizing and nutritious dishes
instead of throwing them away. Her
clothing she keeps clean by the use
of aprons; she has suits of clothes suit
able for dirty work. She turns her
sheets when they grow thin the mid
die. Her worn tablecloths are cut up
into napkins for everyday use. She
keeps rugs spread over places in the
carpet that are subjected to the hard
est wear. She carefully dries her tin
ware so it will not rust out. She keeps
her old brooms for rough use, and so
prolongs the term Of service OF her
best broom. She uses UP her worn
garments in making quilts and COM
forts or in rugs and rag carpets, and
SO in thousand ways she saves what

nobody any good.-The Housewife.

LIFE OF PRINCE SAVED
BY PLEA OF INSANITY
Sentence of Death for Slayer of
South African Declared Null
by German Military Court.
POLITICS IN THE CASE

BERLIN, March 4-The military court
of the First Guards Division. which yester-
day began inquiry into the sanity of Lieu
tenant Prince Prosper Won Arenberg, who
is serving term of Imprisonment for the
murder of a native. suspected of being a
British spy, while commander of a station
in German Southwest Africa, to-day de-
cided that the prince was mentally irrespon-
sible when he committed the murder. and
therefore declared his sentence of death
and subsequent Communication to fifteen
years Imprisonment to be null.
The court listened all day long TO the
reading of the testimony on which the
prince was convicted, dealing exclusively
with the killing of the native. willie
Cain, who was arrested on the princes sus-
picion that Cain meant to assasSinate him.
The testimony showed that the prince shot
Cain with revolver as the latter lay bound
and caused a soldier to run a bayonet
through Gains heart. the prince himself
taking the ramrod and twisting it round in
the bullet wound which was in the head.
One motive for the crime mentioned in the
testimony of private soldiers formerly under
the princes command was his infatuation
for comedy Damara woman, Yokbeth,
Gains wife, who had rejected his atten-
tions. The prince after the murder asked
Yokbeth to enter his household and she
replied: And see the murderer of my hus-
band every day? No"
The prince sat all through the long sit
ting of the court, alphabetically listening to
the reading of the testimony. 1t is under
stood that the princes family will place
him in a private asylum.
The case excites the deepest interest in
Germany and a Socialist who heard the
decision Of the court, said: THAT means
10 900 more votes for u.s.

TALKS OF THE CRIME

Tense in the trial of Lord Darlington, for
the alleged murder of James McCann the
defendant himself took the stand late to-
day and continued to give testimony at to-
nights session of court. Lord" Barring
ton was apparently unwilling to divulge
much information concerning his past, and
it was only by rigid questioning that he
made known the following: He testified
that his real name is Frederick Augustus
harrington Seymour; that he had never
posed as an English nobleman; that he was
born in India and had spent a number of
years in that country, and that he was a
war correspondent during the South Afri-
can war. He denied emphatically that he
was Burton, a noted English crook, or had
gone under the alias of "Burgoyne." He
said his mothers name was harrington,
but refused TO explain how his last name
was Seymour"
him TO go 10 BOnfilS with him on the night
of June IL to meet some friends. AT Bontils.
when they left the and started down
the path somebody whistled and Mccain
whiStled in response. Suddenly they were
set upon by assailants and both were
knocked down. Darlington fought with
the assailants in the dark and was knocked
senseless and laid in that condition until
dawn. He could not find Mccain and pro-
ceeded to walk to st. Louis, where he went
to McCanns home and told Mrs. Mccain
of the assault.
1t is expected the defense will conclude to-
morrow forenoon and the case will go to
the jury before evening.
