Gold In the North.

Perhaps the most northerly gold
fields in the world are those in Lap.
land, where the River Ivalo seems to
be the center of an a%uriferous region,
where gold dredging operations have
been carried on for some time. Dig
gings to the depth of 300 feet have
been completed with a view of finding
out the real Jul Of the ore. The
gold discovered last year by a COM
pany, founded in the United States,
amounted to only four pounds, valued
at $1,500. This was found along a part
of the Ivalo river, and the largest mug
get weighed about 1923 grains. There
are three companies digging gold there
now, the latest being the Ivalo COM
pany, organized in the United States.
Within the possessions of this COM
pany lies Kultala, which was built in
1871 by the Finnish government for
washing gold.

Pauanini's Violin.

The famous violin of Paganini,
which was preserved in a glass case,
has been found to be rotting, and
1t is certain that the wood will not
last many years longer. This dis
covery has caused agitation as to
the means of preserving the precious
instrument. It has been decided
that to keep it a few years longer
it shall be taken out once a year
and played on for an hour by the
best pupil Of the conservatoire.
Only once since the death of the
greatest violinist who ever lived has
the violin, which is a superb
Stradivarius, been touched, and that
was some years ago, by the Spanish
violinist, Pablo del Sarasate, to
whom the city during a triumphal
tour through Italy wished to offer q
signal honor.

EFFECT OF THE FOOD LAW

Many worthless remedies that have
been advertised for the cure of catarrh

catarrh or the money will be refunded.
Breathe Hyomei three or four times
daily through the neat pocket in

and its healing air will reach the
most remote parts of the nose, throat
and lungs, killing all catarrhal germs
and soothing and healing any irrita.

To Oakley Miss Emory seemed to

he was determined she should like him

She was just the least bit afraid of

proper pride and that he possessed
plenty of self respect, but for all that
he was not very dexterous. 1t amused
her to lead him out and then to draw

When Dan went home that night be
told himself savagely that he would
never go to the Emorys' again. The
experience had been most unsatisfac.
tory. In spite of Constance's evident
disposition toward tolerance where he
was concerned. she exasperated him.
Her unconscious condescension was a
bitter memory Of which he could not
rid himself. Certainly women must be
petty small souled creatures if she
was at all representative of her sex.
Yet in spite of his determination to
avoid Constance, even at the risk of
seeming rude, he found ii REQUIRED
greater strength of will than he pos
sessed to keep away from the Emorys.
He realized in the course of the next
few weeks that new stage In his de-
velopment had been reached. Inspired
by what he felt was a false but beau
tiful confidence in himself he called of
ten, and as time wore ON the frequency
Of these calls steadily increased. All
this while he thought about Miss EN-
ory great deal and was sorry for her
or admired her, according to his mood.
In Constance's attitude toward him
there was certain fickleness that he
resented. Sometimes she was friendly
and companionable, and then again
she seemed TO revive all her lingering
prejudlces and was utterly Indifferent
to him, and her Indifference was the
most complete thing of its kind he had
ever encountered.
Naturally Dan and Ryder met very
frequently, and when they met they
clashed. 1t was not especially pleas
ant, of course, but Ryder was persist
ent and Oakley was dogged. Once he
started In pursuit of an object he never
gave up or owned that he was beaten.
In some form he had accomplished ev-
erything he set out to do, and If the re-
suits had not always been just what he
had anticipated he had at least had the
satisfaction Of bringing circumstances
under his control. He endured the
editors sarcasms and occasionally re-
taliated with vengeance so heavy as
to leave Grif quiverlng with the smart
Of 1t.
Miss Emory found it difficult to
maintain the peace between them, but
she admired Dams mode of warfare;
1t was so conclusive, and he showed
such grim strength in his ability to
hook out for himself.
But Dan felt that he must suffer by
any comparison with the editor. He
had no genius for trlfes, but rather a
