something infinitely less agreeable than

world were talking of it. He looked on
the ground. Then he said:
"Dr. Dundas, / shall be delighted to

Give them a fortnight's notice." said
the doctor bruskly. "A fortnight is long
enough"
"A month pleaded Lionel. st would

"a month, then-a month. So you will

II will. Dr.. Dundas."
You will dine with u.s. pursued the
doctor, ..and spend the evening, if you
like. But our evenings are usually dull:
whist for US elders. and silence or a con-
versation with the cat for poor Miss
Wycherly." The good doctor shrugged
his shoulders. "Old friendship with the
colonel in India years, years ago ties me
here" He shook his head, and frowned.
Madam is a popularity, as you will find
"a saint, a .~tyrant, all in one"
"a thorough woman of the world" said
Lionel.
The laugh of the Scotch doctor rang
loudly through the bare February wood.
THE world" he echoed. "Oh, poor
lady! How amusing are the comments of
outsiders. No, young sir the mistress
OF Wycherly is not a woman of the
world"
"At least she is proud!' .
Proud; yes, as Lucifer. One might
think she had fallen from some higher
sphere, and disdained converse with NOR
tails.
'They do not receive much company.
asked Lionel.
Occasionally. There will be a dinner
next month, and the boy heir introduced
to the county. Well, here I must leave
you, for I have a message to the wood
man. It is a bargain, then"

Candidates of six political parties re-
ceived votes in the presidential election
of 1904. Only two Of the parties were
represented in the electoral vote. Eight
parties polled a vote in 1900 large
enough to be recorded; six Of them
failed to choose a single presidential
elector.
In national elections the great major
ity of the voters remain loyal to n or
the other of the old political parties.
Other parties are sometimes strong
enough to carry State elections in the
West and the South, and by holding the
balance of power to decide elections in
the, East.
Presidential electors have cast their
votes for a third party candidate only
twice since the Civil War. The first
time was in 1892, when Mr.. Weaver,
the Peoples party candidate, carried
Colorado, Idaho, Kansas and Nevada,
and won an elector in North Dakota
and in Oregon. Four years later Thomas
E. Watson, who was a candidate for
the Vice Presidency with Mr.. Bryan
on the Peoples party ticket, by means
Of a coalition with the Democrats. d.
vided with the Democratic Vice Pyesi-
Dental candidate the electoral votes Of
ten States. AS Horace Greeley died
between the time of the popular vote
in November, 1872, and the meeting Of
the electors, the Democratic vote Of that
year was distributed among other al
didates.
In the transition period election of
1860 the electoral vote was divided
among one Republican, one Union and
two Democratic candidates but In 1859
Willard Fillmore, as american" and
Wing candidate, carried Maryland, and
received it's electoral votes.
This year the number Of independ-
ent, or extra party, candidates is likely
to be large, but 1t is probable that all
the electoral votes will go either to the
Democratic or to the Republican can
didates as usual.-Youth's Companion.

SilInge-Cure for Jealousy.
There is always jealousy in the Ger

the troops detailed to various villages
and small towns find from the young
women, says the New York Sun.
Things took a queer turn last sum
mer in Forst, a village of Baden, nea
Bruchsal, where the One Hundred and

during the season OF field training. The
good old method OF thrashing soldiers
who made themselves agreeable to tie

The country boys at last determined u

around that any girl who was detected

even printed in the Bruchsal newspa.

girls who smiled on the soldiers should

But the young men altogether under

To Use Furnace waste Heat.

ITO pick 100000 horsepower of the
tops of eight roaring blast furnaces and
use it. in performing a hundred giant
tasks is the purpose of the colossal ap-
paratus now being installed in the won.

writes H. G. Hunting in the March Tech-
nical World Magazine. By a heretofore
unthought of device this power will en-
tirely displace steam in the great mills.
Thirty-three huge gas engines are being
installed, each of 5000 horsepower to
use the gas produced by the iron smelt-
ers and convert it into electric power.
At the top Of each of the blast furnaces
an outlet for the heated gas is provided
leading into a cleansing tube where the
dust is removed by means of a series Of
tanks or washers About 80 per cent
of the product is diverted to the blast
stoves to heat UP in preparation for the

CHApTER XII

Lionel Leigh loved Ella Wycherly. Not
Withstanding the strenuous effort made
BY Miss Worthington to Danish him from
sWycherly, 1t fell out that he was not
forbidden to teach German to tho colonel,s
daughter; and during the three months
which followed the bali he had given his
three weekly lessons.
He would tell her that, though tutor,
and she heiress, he was still man, and she
woman that he had dared to love her
boldly, II without hope. Half In rage,
md half In triumphant pride, he had
vowed that the confession should be made.
She should learn Of Chateau Moreauville,
and the possible title and estates which
had escaped him.
Sometimes it seemed to Lionel that he
hated Ella Wycherly more than he loved
her. Now he was asked for sympathy
and help for another lover: but what a
loverl-an earl's heir, a spoiled world
darling. No; this pampered aristocrat
could not love as he loved. At last he
said
"Mr. Calthorpe, you viii change your
mind. When you are free of Nellie Wat

with other simple remedies was prac-
tically a sure specific for Eczema,
psoriasis, BARRIERS itch, ralt rheum,

the oil Of wintcrgreen alone was found
ineffective. IL required other mild

served merely as an appetizer to the

"a parrot is the meanest Of crea-

WITH parrots generally admit that there
is nothing that can make parrot
ashamed of himself. Now tha! is a
mistake, fer happen to have a parrot
that was made ashamed OF himself
Just the other week, and he is the
NEST ccnceited parrot, too, that was
ever seen outside Of congress. 1t speaks
Spanish and English like profes-
Sional interpreter. Now the troubIs
was the parrot would talk all the time
whon he was not asleep. He was just

the cat got disgusted at an early stage
Of the proceedings and quit the house.
Well. the other day man who
has had considerable experience of
parrots happened to drop in, and when
| complained of the bird he said, Why
don't you get an owl? You get an
owl, and hang him up close to the par
rot's cage, and in about two days
you'll find that your birds dead sick
of Improbable conversation .
We'll, got a small owl and put him
in cage close to the parrots cage.
Tho parrot began by trying to dazzle
the owl with his conversation, but 1t
wouldn't work. The owl sat and
locked at the parrot just as solemn as
a cop who has juss lost his job on the
fo;ce, and after while the, parrot
tried him with Spanish. 1t wasn't OF
any use. Not word would the owl
let on to understand. Then the parrot
tried Dragging, and laid himself out to
make the owl believe that Of all the
parrots in existence he was the ablest.
But he couldn't turn feather OF
the owl. That noble bird sat silent
as the grave and looked at the parrot
as II to say, This is indeed melan'
choly exhibition of imbecility! Well
before night that parrot was SC
ashamed of himself that he closed for
repairs. and from that day to this he
has never spoken an unnecessary
