The Big Sale.

Yesterday at the Bargain Store,
Grangeville witnessed one of the
greatest dry goods sales in it's his
tory. The store was closed Mon
day and Tuesday to give time for
arranging goods and prices, and
when it was reopened yesterday
the regular force of clerks together
with one half dozen special help
ers, were kept continually busy
throughout the whole day waiting
on the enormous crowds that
thronged about the doors. The
Bargain store management wishes
to apologize to those who came
and had to wait, sometimes leav-
ing without being waited upon. 1t
is intended that from now on the
force of clerks will be increased 80
every one can be waited upon with
out delay. This sale is to last for
ten days, ending Aug II, during
which time you can get the highest
grade Of goods at greatly reduced
prices. The success with which
this sale has begun is due to the
big advertising, both in the Free
Press, with q page ad last week,
and thousands Of posters distribut-
ed over the town and county.

the Process of Manufacture.
Would you like to know how to man.
ufacture diamonds-real diamonds? The
process Is somewhat difficult, requiring
time, patience and some outlay of mon.
ey, but then consider the possible re.
suits! The diamond, we know, Is sim.
ply carbon In transparent crystalline
form. 1t comes of humble parentage
and Is brother to the lump Of coal.
Unlike easily crystallizable bodies,
carbon ID lnsoluble in all ordinary solv.
ents, but molten metals will combine
with 1t. Let the diamond maker choose
iron for a solvent for charcoal, melting
1t In an electric furnace, allowing It to
take up as much carbon as it can-in
other words, saturate Itself with car.
bon. The crucible containing the white
hot metal should then be plunged into a
bath Of molten lead. The result will be
that globules of iron will rise to the
surface Of the lead and are quickly
cooled on the outer surface. Inside the
hard crust the iron remains for some
time in molten condition. and as iron
expands In solidifying the contents Of
these little globules receive a pressure
unattainable by any other means
When the lead becomes solidified some
bullets Of iron will be found bound up
in the mass. Dissolve with some pow.
erful acid first the lead and then the
iron, and a residue Of carbonaceous
matter will be found to contain tiny
crystals--real diamonds. Any chemist
with a we'll equipped laboratory can
make diamonds in this way. but the
largest Of them will not be more than q
fftleth Of an inch In diameter.

CHAPTER I,

The great bell of Beaulieu vas ring
ing. Far away through the forest
might be heard It's musical clangor
and swell. Peat cutters on Breakdown
and fishers upon the Exc heard the
distant throbbing and falling upon the
sultry summer air. 1t was a common
sound in those parts--as common As
the chatter of the jays and tie boom
ing of the bttern. Yet the fishers and
the peasants raised tier heads and
looked questions ut each other, for the
Angelus had already gone and yespers
was still far off. Why should the
great bell Of Beaulieu toll when the
shadows were neither ,ort nor long?
All round the Abbey t e monks
were trooping in. Under the long,
green-paved avenues of gnarled oaks
and of lichened beeches the white
robed brothers gathered to the sound.
1t had been no sudden call. A swift
messenger had the night sefore sped
round to the outlying dependencies of
the Abbey, and had left the summons
for every monk to be back in the
cloisters by the third hour after noon

been issued within the memory Of old
Lay-Brother Athanasius, who had
cleaned the knocker since the year
after the Battle of Bannackburn.
Meanwhile, in the broad an lofty
chamber set apart, for occasions of
import, the Abbot himself was pacing
impatiently backward and forward,
with his long, white, nervous hands
clasped in front Of hiL4. His thin,
thoughtworn features and sunken,
haggard cheeks bespoke one who had
indeed beaten down that inner foe
whom every man must face, but had
none the less suffered sorely in the
contest. In crushing hi passions he
had well-nigh crushed himself. Yet,
frail as was his person, there cleaned
out ever and anon from under his
dropping brows flash of fierce energy
which recalled to mems minds that he
came of fighting stock, and that even
now his twin brother, Sir Bartholomew
Berghersh, was one Of the most ia
nous of those stern warriors who had
planted the Cross of st. George before
the gates of Paris. With lips COM
pressed and clouded brow, he strobe
up and down the oaken floor, the very
impersonation of asceticism, while
the great bell still Numbered and
changed above his head. At last the
uproar died away in three last meas
ured throbs, and ere their echo had
ceased the Abbot struck a small gong
which summoned lay-brother to his
presence.
"Where is the master Of the nov
ices?"
'He liz without, most holy father"
"Send him hither."
The sandalled feet clattered over the
wooden floor, and the iron-bound
door creaked upon its hinges. In a
few moments 1t opened again to adj
NIT a short, square monk with a
heavy, composed face and author
itative manner.
"You have sent for me. holy

BLESSED WITH CHILDREN.


Mrs. Nellie Grant Sartoris had three
children, two daughters and a son.
The son, who bears his fathers name,
Algernon, was for time an officer in
the United States army and saw some
! service in the Philippines, but his
health compelled the abandonment Of
military career. During the past
few years he has travelled extensively,
and some months ago was married to
a very beautiful young woman in
Paris. The eldest daughter, Vivian,
was married year or two since, but
the younger daughter, Rosemary, the
beauty of the family, is still unmarried.
Some months since much discussion
was precipitated when it was rumored
that she was engaged to the son of
one of the Confederate generals who
fought against General Grant in the
campaigns of the Civil War.
Mrs. Nellie Grant Sartoris is q
woman who has always been held in
high esteem by large circle of fem
mime friends. From her school days
she has seemed to inspire the regard
of members of her own sex, and some
idea of her popularity may be formed
from the fact that on the occasion of
her wedding she was attended by
eighteen bridesmaids, all gowned alike.
Mrs. Sartoris is several years younger
than her famous brother, Gen. Fred
D. Grant, of the United States Army,
but her birthday was three years ear
lier than that of Jesse Grant, the
youngest member Of this famous fam
lily.
