Not one" replied Henry, but III
look over the rack again and see If

"AIl right" said the New Yorker
while his friend gave the slips his anX'
ious attention. Light broke over his
face in u moment. and he came back.
a man ny on the parlor floor gave
I'D his room about Ri hour ago. but he
didn't expect to leave it quite so soon.
I'll send up and see if l can't hurry
him little"
The porter's bell was rung, II whis-
pered colioquy took place between Hen
Nv and that blue shirted functionary,
and in fifteen minutes the man from
New York was rejoicing In one of 1.-The
best rooms in the house"
But the clerk omitted to inform him
that the previous occupant had given

when he had given up his Ufe.

That the leading medical writers and
teachers of all tho several schools of
practice endorse and recommend, In tho
strongest terms possible, each and every
ingredient entering into the composition
of DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
for the cure of weak stomach, dyspepsia,
catarrh of stomach, oliver complaint"
torpid liver, or biliOuSneSS. chronic bowel
affections, and all catarrhal diseases OF
whatever region, name or nature. 1t is
also specific remedy for all such chronic
or long standing cases OF catarrhal atfcc-
tionS and their reSultantS, as bronchial,
throat and lung diseases Except conSump-
tom accompaniedwith severe coughs. 1t
il not so good for acute colds and coughs,
but for lingering, or chronic cases it is
especially eflicaciouS In producing per-
feet cures. 1t contains Black Cherry bark,
Golden Seal root. Bloodroot, Stone root:
Mandrake root and Queens root-all of
which are highly praised as remedies for
all the above mentioned affections by such
eminent medical writer's and teachers as
Pref. Bartholow, OF jefferson Med. Gel
lego; Prof. Hare. of the Univ. OF Pa;
Prof. Finley Ellingwood, NJ. D., of Bea-
nett Mod. College, Chicago; Pref. John

natl Prof. Edwin NJ. Hale. NJ. d., Of
nahnemann Med. College, Chicago, and
scores of others equally eminent In their
several schools OF practice.
The Golden Medical Discovery is the
only medicine put up for sale through
druggists for like purposes, that has any
such professional worth
more than any number OF ordinary testi-
m0nials. Open publicity of It's formula
on the bottle wrapper is the best possible
guaranty OF its merits. A glance At this
published formula will show that Golden
Medical Discovery contains no poison
ous or harmful agents and no alcohol
chemically pure, triple refined glycerine
being used instead. Glycnrinc Is entirely
upobiectionable and besides is a most
useful ingredient in the cure of all stom-
ach as well as bronchial. throat and lung
affections There is the highest medical
authority for its use in all such eases.
The discovery is concentrated glyc-
eric extract OF native, medicinal roots

persons with checks to bp caShcd, and

a forged check for $500 in his hand.

paid without question. The merchants
would have sworn that tho signature

M. glanced at, and the teller swiftly
counted out the money. He was about
to pass it through the window, and
Mr.. Phillips WAS feeling Il sort Of con-
tempt for lis easy ways when he palls-
ed, laid down the bills and took mn
other look Mt the check on file. There
were ten seconds of puzzled hesitation,
and then he said:
There is bit of irrcgularity here.
This check Is dated for tomorrow.
See!'
The astute Mr. Phillips saw For
year he had been slowly and carefully
preparing for this day. For year he
had been telling himself that there
could be no failure. He had written
out the check with the utmost care and
had scanned 1t over and over again, and
yet he had dated it day ahead and
made most egregrlous blundcr. The
thing came upon him with sledge ham,
mer force and in spite of his assurance
he exhibited some confusion This

incident.

and started out. But the detective
would not have it that way, and five
minutes later lie had penetrated the
disguise Of his friend. Perhaps their
friendship might have stood the strain
or an explanation been possible, but the
teller would not have it so. An at

him, snd ho proposed TO see it through.
The result came two months later,
when the careful and deliberate and

astute Mr.. Phillips was sentenced to

BASKET BALL

L y
iugst the Academy GymnasiuS
resulted in a victory for the
Academy Seniors over the Court
House team, aud for the Elsc.
tricisns; formerly known as the
City team over the Academy
Juniors.
The first game was played be-
tween the Academy Seniors aud
the Court House team and both
teams worked hard from start to
finish but the Seniors proved to
be too many for their adversaries
aud as a result the Seniors still
retain their scalps, and none OF
them went home on crutches.
The Court House boys say
they could have won out easy il
could have only made the bask-
cts, and they console themselves
by realizing that they have one
more chance, when they will
make it a point to make more
baskets instead of so much work,
as that seems to be the secret Of
the game,
The contest between the Elec.
trieians and the Academy Juniors
was a pretty one, the Juniors led
the way and II looked like
victory was theirs, but the last
two minutes Of the time allotted.
the Electricians had a streak of
good lack and scored four points
which won for them the laurcls
so earnestly sought for.
The Juniors were Confdeut
they had downed their foes, and
it was hard to convince them to
the contrary, but when the
official scorer and time keeper
said "thus and so, they made
up their minds they would let it
pass fer this time but would
meet their enemies with more
determination that ever when
three weeks roll around, aud will
not give up until they have
"downed" the whole cheese,
and il looks as II they may make
good their threats. IT.
Much interest Is taken in the
games by the public, which Is
gratifying and encouraging to
the players who have tried and
will continue to try and make
the games interesting for all who
attend.
At different stages Of the game
the spectators became soenthus-
ed that it was hard to dis.
tinguish the players from the
lockers on, aud II It had not
been for the prsmptness of the
faithful referee who was always
at his post, sounding his cry
"foul" 1t Is feared some Of them
would have been seen descending
from the basket,
Tonight the game will be
between the Electricians VS.,
Court House and Sessions VS..
Juniors, Can you guess who
will win the cup?

tilted ground. This slight difference
might or might not have been due to
the use of the fertilizer, but even ad-
mitting that the gain of IL pounds is
due to the use of the 100 pounds OF
nitrate of soda used, it is not enough
gain to justify the use of the fertilizer.
The experimenters conclude that the
use of nitrate of soda on asparagus
beds during the cutting period cannot
be recommended. On lined soil at the
Rhode Island station nitrate of soda
has proved nearly twice as valuable
a fertilizer for this crop as sulphate
of ammonia.
At the New Jersey experiment sta
tions fertilizer experiments with as
paragus have been under way for sew
en- years. The asparagus field is sit
uated on a gravelly clay loan. The

ment station, has recently made an
experiment to determine the value or
salt in asparagus culture. One-half
of a bed containing one-seventh OF an
acre was fertilized with salt at the
rate of 1000 pounds per acre. The
asparagus field was in its second year
at the time the experiment was start
ed. AS far as could be seen there was
no appreciable effect of the salt upon
the growth of the asparagus nor In
preventing the growth of weeds. The
following spring that portion OF the
field which had received salt the pre-
ceding summer was again salted, and
this time at the rate of 2 pounds per
square yard. The salt was applied In
two equal portions at intervals OF
20 days. With each variety OF aspar.
agus larger stalks and an increased

stored in the roots the preceding sea-
son. G. P. Close, of the Delaware ex-
pertinent station, reports the results
of an experiment in which the value
of spring applications of nitrate of
soda were studied. In the experiment
a half-acre of asparagus was fertilized
with 100 pounds of nitrate of soda,
which was applied in four equal por-
tions at intervals of about 10 days.
The first application was made about
10 days or 2 weeks before the cut
ting season began. Another half-acre
was left unfertilized for comparison.
The yield of stalks from the fertilized
plot was 460 pounds and from the
unfertilized plot 44S pounds, a differ
ence of II pounds in favor of the fer
