Screen your doors and win
dows and keep out the house,
fly, the most dangerous OF

Yellow Magazines.

President Roosevelt s ''muck
rake" barb seems to have lodged
good and deepin the sides of
some of the saffron tinted maya
zines. Several have given evil
dence in@various ways of being
pricked pretty deep, but, if re-
ports are true, McClures, one of
the chief offenders, has been the
hardest hit of all.
Word from the east announces
the breaking up of the old pub
fishing firm of Mcclure, Phillips
& Co., as direct result Of the
presidents criticism. Mcclure
believes the magazine should be
less sensational, while Phillips
would continue the present
policy. The result is the retire.
ment Of the latter from the bust
ness.
The trouble with the yellow
magazines is that, like the yellow
newspapers, they have carried
the thing to an extreme. Honest
exposure of graft is alright and
the public applauds it, but the
magazines have not been content
with this; the field was too linn
tied. They have gone out into
the highways and byways and
raked up scandals wherever they
could find the slightest tip on
which to work. Like eager re-
porters anxious to get ''story,"
the magazine writer's have not
always been conscientious in
sticking to the facts, if the facts
in any way tended to spoil the
sensation.
Very naturally, such tactics as
these lave brought about a
wholesome reaction.

it until the moment Of exposure. Such

ed my eye with the agreeable green of
the national currency. Many bank
bills, tightly folded, were wrapped in
the single sheet Of paper which l have
mentioned. The total sum was 1869.
l will not attempt to describe the
perplexity into which I was thrown by
this mysterious communication.
After cudgeling my brains for some
hours | reached the very annoying
conclusion that this money must have
been sent to lie by a Mrs. Colvin,
whom l had come to know when l
lived at my grandfathers house in
Montclair.
After the sudden death of her hus-
band l assisted her in settling the es-
tate and in SO doing spent some Of
my own money, which fact l studiOus-
ly concealed. l was a sutton for the
hand of Mrs. Colvins daughter at that
time and had faint hope, which was
speedily quenched, though not my love
alas.
I would rather that almost anything
else had happened than that Mrs. Col
vim should have discovered her debt to
me. TO have put her under this obi
CATION was an offense against good
taste, and she was one who would see
the matter in it's proper light. Perhaps
for this reason she had paid the money
secretly, desiring to, avoid the dishon-
esty of pretending to forgive HE.
Unfortunately she had considerably
overpaid me, Yet the money must have
come from her, for there was no other
explanation. 1t remained, then, for me
to go to Mrs. COlvin, whom l had not
seen in more than a year, and render
her a true account returning the bal
ance now due her
With this purpose l went to Mont
clair in the afternoon of the following
day. It was mid-June, and the beau
tiful town was at it's best, with all the
rose gardens blooming and the scented
air thrilling with gayety, as if there
we're some public merrymaking. 1t is
needless to say that my own mood was
not festal. l dreaded the coming in
terview. and my heart ached at the
