Most every editor advises its
readers to trade with their home
merchants. Do they take their
advice? A recent writer in the
Press Journal says on this sub
jet; There are merchants in
L)lisara who send off for all
family supplies which they do
not keep in stock Wnen goods
in their line are not bought by
home folks they cry aloud, but
they send off for their sugar.
coffee, soap, starch etc, The
furniture man complains to the
merchants that people will send
off to buy furniture while that
merchant is looking for his dill
of furniture from Chicago; the
merchant had noticed m e
boxes shipped to the furniture

contain dry goods, AS long as
merchants trade with far away

Thomas Holmes, of Washing

economic problem in the culture
of stray arries in the city As
a general this plant requires
considerable ground to grow in,
but as this is lacking in the city
he has taken a large sized bar

the sides of the barre holes
have been bored and to each
hole plant has been placed,
In this way several dozen plants
can be grown which when bear
ing, furnish fruit sufficient to
supply a medium sized family.

earlier than thos grown in regu

City correspondent "hauds the
bunc" to a leading Benton citi-
zen:
Mr.. Claude James, our
genial cashier of the new bank,
is building a fine new house. He
says he is going to rent t h e
house to some one and board
with them We are in no doubt
whatever about his boarding in
the house, but are almost tempt
ed to doubt his statement as to
the house being rented to some
one. On the quiet we could bet
that Mr.. Jones intends the
house for Mrs. James. as a GER
tain young lady has been in
speeding the building very often
recently. We hope Mr., James
won't keep his neighborS in the
dark as to his wedding as did
the last young (?) couple"

A TREACHEROUS TROUBLE.

The headaches and dizzy feelings that trouble so many persons. are often but symptoms of kidney com plaint.
 Kidney diseases are very treacher- ous. They come on silently. gain ground rapidly. and cause thousands of deaths that could have been pre- vented by treatment in the beginning.
 Nature gives early warnings of every disease. if you would but note and heed them. Backache. twinges of pain when stooping or lifting. head aches. faint spells and urinary dis orders are among the first warnings of kidney trouble.
 If these signals are unheeded. there comes a steady, dull. heavy aching in the back and loins. a noticeable weakness and loss of flesh. rheumatic attacks. weakening of the sight. ir- regular heart action. langour. attacks of gravel, irregular passages of the kidney secretions. sediment. painful. scaIding sensation. dropsical bloat. ing. etc.
 But there Is no need to sufer long. poan's Kidney Pills cure all kidney troubles. This remedy has made repntation for quick relief and lasting cures. It is a simple compound of pure roots and herbs that have a d. rect action on the kidneys- It vas

solitary bush may be found growing elsewhere - in some other continent across the ocean. The ways of nature are past comprehension, and no man can say who sows the seed that crops up in strange places. The wind blow eth where it listeth, and none can tell what germs it bears. It seems hardly credible that the plateau, no bigger than a cricket field, far away in the waste land of central Africa, can be the only spot on this planet where the magic leaf grows in sufficient profu- sion to supply suffering humanity with an alleviating drug, unrivaled "a strength giving herb unapproached in power. But as yet no other simiacine has been found, and the plateau is lost.
 And the end of it was two men who had gone to look for it two years be- fore - young and hearty - returning from the search successful beyond their highest hopes, with shadow in their eyes and gray upon their heads.
 They sat for nearly two hours in that room in the quiet house in Rus sell square, where the cabs do not pass, and their conversation was of money. They sat until they had closed the simiacine account, never to be re- opened. They discussed the question of announcement and after due consid- eration concluded that the gain was rightly theirs, seeing that the risk had all been theirs. Slaves and slave OWL CT had both taken their cause to higher court, where the defendant has no worry and the plaintiff is at rest They were beyond the reach of money beyond the glitter of gold-far from the cry of anguish. A fortune was set aside for Marie Durnovo, to be held in trust for the children of the man who had found the simiacine plateau; another was apportioned to Joseph.
 "Seventy-seven thousand one hun dred and four pounds for you," said Jack Meredith at length, laying aside his pen; "seventy-seven thousand one hundred and four pounds for me And" he added. after a little pause, 'it was not worth It."
 Guy Oscard smoked his pipe and shook his head. ~
 Now" said Jack Meredith, "I must go. must be out of London to- morrow morning. I shall go abroad America or somewhere"
 He rose as he spoke, and Oscard made no attempt to restrain him.
 They went out into the passage to- gether. oscard opened the door and followed his companion to the step.
 T suppose" said Meredith, we shall meet some time, somewhere?"
 Yes"
 They shook hands. " '' '''
 Jack Meredith went down the steps, almost reluctantly. At the foot of the short flight he turned and looked up at the strong, peaceful form of his friend.
 What will you do?" he said.
 ''I shall go back to my big game" replied Guy Oscard. T am best at that. But I shall not go to Africa"

 "Et moi?' she snapped impatiently.
 "Ah"- with a gesture learned in some foreign court-"I can only ask your forgiveness. I can only remind you that she is not your daughter-if she were she would be different wo- man-while he is my son." Lady Cantourne nodded as if to in- dicate that he>need explain no more.

 But Mlllicent was never engaged to Guy 0scard."

Jack did the same in every respect. Unfortunately there was only one fond heart waiting for the couple of them at home.

 The smile left his worn old face. He moved uneasIly and walked to the fireplace, where he stood with his un- steady hands moving Idly. almost nerv- ously. among the ornaments on the mantelpiece He committed the rare discourtesy of almost turning his back upon lady.

CHAPTER XXIy.

VI RATHER expect - Lady Can tourne." said Sir John to his servants when he returned
 A home, "any time between now and 10 o'clock"
 The butler, having a vivid recollec- tion of an occasion when Lady Can tourne was shown into a drawing room where there were no flowers. made his preparations accordingly. The flowers were set out with that masculine ignorance of such matters which brings smile-not wholly of mirth-to a woman's face. The little used drawing room was brought un- der the notice of the housekeeper for that weman's touch which makes q drawing room what it Is. It was al- ways ready, this room, though Sir John never sat in it. But for Lady Cantourne it was always more than ready.
 Sir John went to the library and sat rather wearily down in the stiff backed chair before the fire. He began by taking Up the evening newspaper, but failed to find his eyeglasses, which had twisted up in some agg-avating man. ner with his necktie. So he laid aside the journal and gave way to the weak ness of looking into the fire. once or twice his head dropped for ward rather suddenly So that his clean shaTen chin touched his tie pin, and this without a feeling of sleepiness warranting the relaxation of the spinal column. He sat up suddenly on each occasion and threw back his shoulders.
 Almost seems" he muttered once. "as if I were getting to be an old man" After that he remembered nothing until the butler, coming in with the lamp. said that Lady CantOurne was in the drawing room. The man busted himself with the curtains. carefully avoiding A glance in his masters di- rection.

 He has not been here this after noon?
