No wagons came along, though once
an automobile shot past at speed
that rendered his cry unavailing.
The passing Of the car only served
to make the loneliness the more pro

"Is Nancy with your" demanded an
anxious voice from the car, and Bobby
knew that Nancy's sister was there
too.
She gave little cry when Howard
brought the girl to her and covered
the tear stained face with kisses.
Howard made up bed In the tonneau
for the children and ran on to where
the road permitted turn toward
home. Bobby was not sleepy now,
and he stood leaning over the back of
the front seat watching the car eat
up the road.

plaintively, until Nancy got tired.

curiously.

want to do something, but don't have

Bobby regarded his brother suspl-

Howard was up to when he used the
big words. but the proffer of a half

he stretched out his hand.

An Air with Zeal Air.

During one Of the political tours Of
Mr.. Cleveland, in which he was accom-
panied by Secretary olney, he arrived
during severe storm at town In
which he was to speak. As he en-
tered the carriage with his friends and
was driven from the station the rain
changed to hall, and immense stones
battered and ratified against the We
hicle. A brass band, rather demoraliz-
ed by the storm. stuck bravely to its
post and played.
THAT 10 the most realistic music I
have ever heard" remarked the presi-
dent.
What are they playingT asked the
secretary Of state

The Care Of House Plants.

The cause of sickly, yellow house
plants may usually be attributed to
either a hot, vitiated atmosphere, i'm.
proper watering, improper handling of
the drafts so that coal gas escapes into
the rooms, or leaky gas pipes. When
the plants begin to look badly don't
start in doping them with patent fer.
tilizer or freak remedies such as
castor oil and iron filings, but deter.
mine the cause of trouble and rec.
tify it.
The palms and rubber plants will
have glossy leaves all winter If the
dust is wiped off them each dav with
a damp rag or sponge. In localities
where soft coal is used little soau
may be added to the water.-Country

SUFFERED TWENTY-FIVE YEARS
With Eczema-Her Limb Peeled and
Foot Was Raw-Thoueht Amputa-
ton Was Necessary-BeIieves
Life Saved by Cuticura.

Il have been treated by doctors for
twenty-five years for bad case of
eczema on my leg. They did their best,
but failed to cure it. My doctor had
advised me to have my leg cut off At
this time my leg was peeled from the
knee my foot was like a piece of raw
flesh. and | had to walk on crutches.
| bought a set of Cuticura Remedies
After the first two treatments the
swelling went down, and in two
months my leg was cured and the new
skin came on. The doctor was sur
ptised and said that he would use
Cuticura for his own patients. Ihave
now been cured over seven years, and
but for the Cuticura Remedies
might have lost my life. Mrs. J. B.

NO WONDER HE WAS SCARED.
Costume Suggested Would Have Made
Youth Look Like Circus Freak.

Not long ago a large clothing house
in New York received letter from
the remote southwest to this effect:
What is the proper dress for a
groom in the afternoon"
The clerk who opened the mail re-
erred the inquiry to the livery depart
ment, and the head OF that department
dictated a brief reply:
Bottle green coat fawncolored
trousers. with top boots, silk hat and
cockade. We can make you prices"
In about a week came a plaintiye
note:
Il always knew 1t was expensive to
get married. but cant you suggest
something a little less elaborate?"

DEFENSE OF THE BACHELOR.
Baltimore Man Points Out 4 Few
Facts Generally Overlooked.

As a matter of fact. It IS obvious
that more crimes are committed by
married men than by single men. for
the simple reason THAT many offenses
exceedingly popular among the former
are entirely impossible to the latter.
One such crime is wife murder. How
could a single man murder his wife?
There are 1.5 wife murderers in the
United States every year. and all are
committed by married men. Again.
consider the crime of demonicide, or
mother-in- law killing. Its practice is
confined entirely to married men. AND
forget not the lesser felonies and mis-
demeanors How could a single man
elope with his wife's sister? How
could he desert his children? How
could he commit bigamy? How could
he flirt with his wife's maid? How
could he be accused OF non-support!
What incentive is there for him to
cheat the gas meter. swindle the In
stalment man or rob his brotherin-
law at poker? Being prosperous. well
fed. and happy-as all bachelors are
why should he steal. forge. embezzle.
burgle or fight?-Baltimore Sun.

COMING WEST.
Shoe Industry Gradually Leaving
Eastern Coast.

Massachusetts and Connecticut are
generally thought of as the big shoe
manufacturing states, but. as the great
west has become more dcnsely popu-
lated these states are slowly losing
prestige.
Wisconsin. for instance, has the
largest manufacturer of full vamp
shoes in the world-The +. Mayer
Boot & Shoe Co. of Milwaukee. The
market for this company's product is
the great west from the Mississippi
to the Pacific. Undoubtedly it is Mil
waukoe's nearness to this great west
market which is responsible for the
great growth OF this concern which
has been in proportion to the growth
of the west. In the last % years they
have outgrown six factories. Includ.
Ing the new Seattle factory ne-rly
completed and the Milwaukee factory
annex built this last year the total
capacity OF the Mayer Boot & Shoe
Company exceeds 5000 pairs per day
which already has been Inadequate TO

Sensible to the Last.

An old Scotch woman used to be
attended by a doctor to whom she in
variably gave a guinea when he went
to see her. lie had told the friends
with whom she lived that her death
would probably be sudden, and one
day he was hurriedly sent for. as she
appeared to have become unconscious.
On his arrival he saw at once that she
was dead. and taking hold of her
right hand. which was closed but not
rigid. he calmly extracted from it the
fee which she had provided for him,
and as he did so, he murmured:
