sometimes few hours early, the lat

ent instance, when the owner was
aboard. Nelson drove him from the
wharf to the bank, where he conferred
briefly in an undertone with Eugene
Madrillon, after which Eugene sent a
note containing three words to Tap
bingham Marsh. Marsh tore up the
note and sauntered over to the club,
where he found General Trumble and
jefferson Bareaud.
"He has come" said Tappingham,
pleased to find the pair the only occu-
pants of the place "IIe saw Madril-
Ion, and there's session tonight"

stout general, rising to his feet "I'll

1t was Tom who averted his eyes, not
Crailey.
"Then you'd best hurry" he said hest
tatingly; 81 mustn't keep YOU" and
went downstairs to his office with flush
ed cheeks, a hanging head and an ex-
preston which would have led a stran-
ger to believe that he had Just beer
caught in lie
He went to the Main street window
and seated himself upon the ledge the
only one In the room not too dusty for
occupation, for here, at this hour, Tom
had taken his place every morning
since Elizabeth Carewe had come from
the convent. The window was a coign
Of vantage, commanding the corner of
Carewe and Main streets. Some dis
lance west of the corner the Catholic
church cast its long shadow across
Main street, and in order to enter the
church a person who lived upon Ca
rewe street must pass the corner or
else make half mile detOur and ap-
proach from the other direction, which
the person never did. Tom had thought
1t out the first night that the image of
Miss Betty had kept him awake, and
that was the first night Miss Carewe
spent in Rouen. The St. Mary's girl
would be sure to go to mass every day,
which was why the window ledge was
busted the next morning.
The glass doors of the little corner
drug store caught the early sun of the
hot May morning and became like

Glorious work Of the Modern Reaper
Fit Subject For Art.
Poetry and art have these many
years pictured the labors Of men and
women In the harvest field. From
Ruth, the cleaner, to Millet's Reaper
we have read the long, melancholy sto-
ry OF the toilers gathering with crude,
wastefui, inhuman hand tools the crops
of the world that the nations might
have bread. Rightly understood, these
two women. living 20 far apart. are pa
thetic monuments to the astounding
stupidity that could permit such things
when. as we now see, by taking thought
a machine can release humanity from
such senseless labor. With singular
perversity artists have. delighted to
paint picturesof foolish toll. Even now
the critics tell us that neither the now
er, the reaper, the thrashing machine
nor the sulky plow is fit subject for a
picture.
Never was there a greater blunder.

haryests, won for the feeding Of the
world with so little labor that the vast

Early Days.
In the early settlement OF New Eng
land taverDs were found TO be neces-
sity, and hence were established by
law. They were usually under the sane
ton and surveillance OF the town OH
cials, says Mr.. Hudson In The History
Of Concord, Mass and these officials
had 10 grant, limit or revoke an inn
holders license. either as yictualIcr
or seller Of liquors.
The keeper Of the ordinary might lie
deacon, military officer, civil Off
cIai or deputy 10 the general court.
His house was convenient place for
c0nyocatlons, important or unlInpor-
tant. and there might be held In II q
parish meeting, military election, q
council Of clcrgymcn or an assessors
talk.
30 important was the ordinary that
ita affairs, such as the establishment Of
prices, the limitation OF patronage and
tie quality and quantity Of goods to
be sold, were regulated by colonial law.
In order TO discourage the use Of
strong drink at these places 1t was en-
acted about 1864 by the colonial court
that not over penny quart should
be charged for all purchased out Of
mealtImes. II was also ordered that
not more than penny drink should
be charged for any beverage. This was
done to make the business OF dramsell-
Ing improbable AT another time II
was enacted by law that every Inn
keeper should sell good beer. "lest
traveller for want Of II might purchase
Wine"
A law was passed at an early date
by which person appointed for the
purpose could join drinking company
at q tavern and countermund any or
der made by any member OF II for
drink In case be believed the member
was drinking too much, and he could
also direct how much liquor could be
drunk.
AT one time no tavern keeper was al
lowed TO permit guests to remain at
his house "tippllng In an Idle way"
In 1864 penalty was enacted for rude
singing at inns. and the court also
undertook at one time to determine
how much a man might drink without
being considered drunk.

Sneezlng Is the best brain clearer

attack Of faintness or falntlng with a
violent sneeze. Our ancestors took
snuff from a belief in the efficacy Of
sneezing, But tobacco SO taken Is in

a feather or straw win act as well as
taking snuff. Try 1t when you feel
