thoroughly convinced that had STUN

manifestation Of occult power, but Miss
Vaughn was in state Of great nerv-
Gus tension, and 1t would have been
cruel to press unwelcome questions.
So we talked little while about the
school, and she was soon at her best
happy, hopeful and earnest. Her mind
was as bright and quick as d birds

CHAPTER III.

THE MESSAGE FROM JAPAN.
RN the week following my visit to
81 New Haven had the pleasure Of
4 meeting Donald Donaldson. In
the meantime had made a care
full investigation of his character and
ability. The result was surprising.
Rarely have / heard man 30 highly
praised, yet this appreciation seemed
to have done him no good. The most
influentfiLnikMber of the firm that en-.
ployed him told me that Donaldson
was wonder In business way, and
yet. so far as could learn, nothing
had been done for his advancement in
two years except that few dollars
had been added to his weekly wage
which was still disgracefully small.
At the age of twepty-four he had be-
come familiar with the dull pang OF
encouragement Heknew that he was
serviceable in his place, and he had no
fear of the loss of 1t; indeed he feared
much more the prospect of retaining II
to the end of his days. He lacked ag-
gressive selfishness and the rude, ,obvi-
Gus signs of self esteem.

Bailey, Republican, for governor ma
jorlty of II. This year Dale, democrat,
carried the township by 70 votes. Two
years ago Spearville gave a Republican
majority of Ii on the county treasurer

judge, surveyor, and reglsler-of- deeds.

candidates but gave good big majority
for the rest Of the Republican ticket.
Dodge township showed a Republican
gain of several votes. Wheatland cast
few more votes this year than 1t did in
1902 but does not show the Democratic
gain claimed early in the campaign,
Ford township has Republican gain
OH governor and other state officers, CON-
gresham, and most Of the county ticket,
Bloom has gained II votes in the pre-
cinct. On governor the party vote was
exactly the same proportion this year as
two yeare ago. Wllburn township cast
the same number Of Republican votes
for governor as two years ago, and on
the county ticket with one exception
gave a larger Republican vote. Concord

elnor, and most Of the county ticket.

message of good cheer and helpfulness,
will be welcomed in every home. The
fashion pages are unusually attractive,
illustrating and describing the very latest
modes in a way to make their construc-

pleasure instead of task, and the literary
and pictorial features are of rare excel
lence. A selection Of Love Songs from
the Wagner Operas, rendered into En-.
glish by Richard de Gallienne and beau-
tifully illustrated in colors by j. G. Ley
endecker, occupies a prominent place,
and a chapter In the Composers Series,
relating the romance of Wagner and

the lyrics, A very clever paper entitled

scribes the unique phases Of Washington

tributor, who Is said to write from the
inner circles Of society. There are short
stories from the pens of F. Hopkinson

that young Dickson was bunting on Mr..

this. The first rumor heard was to the
