CUT OUT FOR A DIPLOMAT.
Quick Wit Extricated Young Man
from Difficult Situation.

Most people take things lightly al
the seashore, so that probably &C
counted for the fact that a certain
young man found himself engaged to
two charming girls at one and the
same time while enjoying his vacation
during the past summer.
One day he was seated, half doing
on the deserted piazza OF the hotel
where all three of the interested par.
ties were stopping when suddenly two
little hands were clasped tightly over
his eyes. and a sweet voice whispered
Guess who?"
Was 1t Clara or Nan? Should ne
say one of the names and chance It?
These thoughts were flashing through
his brain, when an inspiration struck
him.
cts the dearest, sweetest, prettiest
little girl in all the world" he said.
"Oh, you dear old Jack boy" she
whispered, satisfied and delighted, and
the hands dropped from his eyes to
his shoulders.

welded husband for time and etern-
ity-"
Thus far he had followed the form
ula Of his church, but now he depart
ed from it with something like def
ance coming up in his voice.
with a covenant and promise on
your part that you will cleave TO her
and to none other, SO help you God,
taking never another wife in spite Of
promise or threat of any priesthood
whatsoever, cleaving unto her and her
alone with singleness of hearth"
When they had made their re-
sponses, and while the drum was
beating upon his heart, he pronounced
them man and wife, sealing upon
them the blessing of the holy resur-
rection, with power to come forth in
the morning clothed with glory and
Immortality"
When he had spoken the final
words of the ceremony, he seemed
to lose himself from weakness,
reaching out his hands for support.
They helped him down on to the sad
die blanket that Follett had brought,
and the latter now went for more
wood.
When he came back they were again
reciting the psalm that had seemed
to quiet the sufferer.
"'Yea, though l walk through the
valley of the shadow of death, l will
fear no evil; for Thou art with me;
Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort
me-"
Follett spread the other saddle
blanket over him. He lay on his side,
his face to the fire, one moment say
ing over the words of the psalm, but
the next listening in abject terror to
something the others could not hear.
II wonder you don't hear their
screams" he said, in one of these mo-
ments; but their blood is not upon
you" Then, after a little:
See, it is growing light over there.
Now they will soon be here. They
will know where l had to come, and
they will have a spade" He seemed
to be fainting In his last weakness.
Another hour they sat silently be-
side him. Slowly the dark over the
eastern hill lightened 70 a gray. Then

the gray paled until flush OF pink
was there. and they could see about
them in the chill of the morning.
Then came a silence that startled
them all. The drum had stopped and
the night-long vibrations ceased from
their ears.
They looked toward the little man
with relief, for the drumming had
tortured him. But his breathing was
shallow and irregular now, and from
time TO time they could hear a rattle
in his throat. His eyes, when he
opened them, were looking far off.
He was turning restlessly and mutter-
ing again. She took his hands and
found them cold and moist.
His fever must have broken" she
said, hopfully. The little man opened
his eyes to look up at her, and spoke
though absently, and not as If he saw
her:
They will have a spade with them
when they come, never fear. And the
spot must not be forgotten-300 yards
north of the dwarf cedar, then straight
over the ridge and halfway down, to
the other cedar below the sandstone
and uncofTined, with the book here
in this pocket where | have 1T. Thou
preparest a table before me in the
presence Of mine enemies: Thou
anointest my head with oil; my cup
runneth over. Surely goodness and
mercy shall follow me all the days of
my life: and | will dwell in the house
of the Lord forever
He started up in terror of something
that seemed to be behind him, but fell
back, and a moment later was ramb-
ling off through some sermon OF the
bygone year.
Slowly, then, the little smile faded
the wistful light of it dying for the
last time. The tired head fell sudden
ly back and the wan lips closed over
lifeless eyes.
From the look Of rest on the still
face it was as if, in his years of serv-
ice and sacrifice, the little man had
learned how to forgive his own sin in
the flash of those last heart-beats

She looked at FOllett questiOningly
but gave him her hand silently when
he arose from the ground where he
had been sitting.
He'd like it. and it's what we want
all simple" he said.
In the light Of the fire they stood
with hands joined, and the little man,
too, got to his feet, helping himself
up by the cairn against which he had
been leaning.
Then, with the unceasing beats OF
the funeral drum in their ears, he
made them man and wife.

VISITING Cards,

Visiting cards owe their origin to
the Chinese, who from the earliest
times observed the greatest ceremony
in the matter of paying calls. The
cards which they used for this pur-
pose were large and colored a bright
red. When a Chinaman desires to
marry, his parents communicate the
fact to a professional match maker,
who at once runs over in her mind
the eligible young women of her &C
quaintance, and selects the one she
thinks will make the most fitting
bride. She then makes a call on the
young woman's parents, armed with
the prospective bridegroom's card, on
which are written his ancestral his.
tory, name, and the date of his birth.
If the suit is acceptable, the brides
card is sent in return; and If the
prophecies for the wedding are good,
the particulars of the engagement
are written on two large red cards and
sent to the friends Of zach family.

Then he sprang quickly up AM put his

Follett spread a saddle blanket

comfort as he could.

SUCCESSFUL TONIC TREATMENT

Hundreds Of Other Casesp6f
Gnnar,an AiIn,apte

Common Ailments
Loss of appetite, coated tongue, bad
taste in the mouth, heavy dull headache
and dull, sluggish feeling these are
the symptoms OF stomach trouble. They
indicate that the stomach is on strike;
that it is no longer furnishing to the
blood the full quota of nourishment that
the body demands, hence every organ
suffers.
There are two methods of treatment,
the old one by which the stomach Is
humored by the use of predigested foods
and artificial ferments, and the new one
by which the stomach is toned up to do
the work which nature intended of it.
A recent cure by the tonic treatment is
that OF Mrs. Mary Stackpole, of 81
Liberty street, Lowell, Mass. She says.
II suffered constantly for ye3Ns, from
stomach trouble and terrible backaches
and was confined to my bed the greater
part of three years. L was under the
care of our family physician most OF the
time, but did not seem to get better.
Il was completely rundown and was
not able to do my work about the house.
My blood was impure and my complex

three to four days. could get but little
rest at night, as my sleep was broken
and fitful. AS a result 1 lost several
pounds III weight and became very ner-
vous.
Il was in wretched condition when
I heard about DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
I started to take the pills at once and
began TO gain in weight and health. I
was encouraged by this to keep on until
was cured. My friends and neighbors
often remark what q changed woman
am and owe it all to DR.. Williams
Pink Pills"
These wonderful pills are useful in
wide range of diseases such as an9mia,
rheumatism, sciatica, neuralgia, nervous
headaches, and even locomotor ataxia
and partial paralysis.
The great value of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills lies in the fact that they actually
make new blood and this carries health
and strength to every portion OF the
body. The stomach is toned up, the
nerves are strengthened, every organ is
stimulated to do its work.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills ara sold by
all druggists, or sent, postpaid, on receipt
of price, 80 cents per box, six boxes for
$3.50, by the DR.. Williams Medicine
Company, Schenectady, N. Y.

The destruction of San Francisco is
another feature, needless to state,

great auditorium in which it will be
housed has been one of the first along
the War Path to reach completion. It
is said to be by far the most elaborate
reproduction of the disaster which has
been attempted. The scenic effects,
prepared by well known scene paint
ers, give very vivid picture. which in
return is made realistic by the pres
ence of several hundred persons on
the stage and the falling of blocks Of
sheet iron houses and buildings at
