JeyyeIry in an Old Tin Can.

A small boy went to the Walnut
street police station last night. In Las
right hand he carried an old rusty
tomato can, says the Kansas City Star.
Lieut.. Joseph Heydon was busy and
did not notice the boy, whose head
scarcely reached the top of the desk.
Say, mister" he said, Il guess l OF
something l think you want"
Heydon looked at the boy and the
can and smiled. He likes children.
Il guess if you don't want it l don't
either he replied But let's see it."
The boy walked around behind the
desk. Heydon took the can and turned
it bottom upward. Four gold watches,
a locket, a cross, a necklace and one
silver cuff link rolled out on the desk.
"Son, l beg your pardon. l do
want this" the lieutenant said.
Where did you get it?"
WAS digging for fishing worms down
at 10Th and MCGEE streets" the boy
replied. Had a dandy place picked
out to dig. Right 'longside of some old
ties near the northwest corner Of 10Th
and MCGEE streets. Just got started to
dig when l struck the old can. looked
into it and found that stuff. 1t was
about half past I when 1 found it. I
took it home ard waited till my step
father came home. He told me to bring
it up here"

nov. the doubts OF an untried soul, and
the loneliness of an outcast. The scene
in the upper hallway was upreared IN her
brain. She had been borne throughout
the day, unerringly by the processes OF
mind toward the expression OF her own
will: but the fruition was so sudden and
horrible as forever to be beyond the
shadow and circumstance OF extenuation.
If Constable were well and in Saint
Pierre, why did he not come to her. IN
stead Of sending this man? Even though
Breen were all a man could be, had Con-
stable the right to send him to her, after
the allegations of the pressi Could there
be any truth in the suggestions OF her
mother? Might there not exist in the Con-
stable character a war of the base and
noble?
These big tangible terrors possessed
her. She could not go back-the bridges
were burned. The man at her side did
not speak, save to answer her questions.
Ahead were possibilities and fancies, be-
side which the rumbling menaces Of the
mountain were clean fears. She halted
Her body swayed a little, and the man
put out his hand to steady her. A cry
escaped her lips.
Il cannot go on!' she exclaimed brok-
enly. II have done a terrible wrong N
coming. Everything is different. Leave
me. II shall go back toward Fort de
France!"

Uses of Olive Oil.

Not every one realizes the medicinal
properties of olive oil. It is quite true
that the machinery of the body needs
oiling occasionally, like any mechanical
machine which is constantly in use,
and olive oil, taken internally, will be
exceedingly beneficial. A tablespoonful
will aid the digestion and ease liver
trouble. This oil should be served
frequently as a dressing and is not only
pleasant on vegetables, but serves as
an appetizer as well. Taken internally,
either with salads or alone, it is bene-
fetal for catarrh, either of the stomach
or throat, 1t is known to be a great
help in cases of rundown nervous sys-
tenn and loss of weight. 1t should be
rubbed well into the skin, the entire
body being massaged with the oil, par
ticularly the spine. After massaging
with olive oil use a Turkish towel, rub
bling well over the body. AS a pre-
ventive of colds mix it with Guinine
and rub on the chest and back. 1t can
also be applied mixed with camphor
to cure soreness of the throat

Rfp CarrfaRe HorsPs.

AS foreign conditions have their eff
feet on the horse industry in this coun-
try, the views Of a writer in London
paper are of some interest here. This
correspondent claims that the wealthy
jobmasters Of London are unable to
let or hire anything but big carriage
horses, and in the absence Of home
breds they by them In America or on
the continent Of Europe. The number
they now require could be expressed
In thousands aid the checks they send
would amount TO something more like
millions He thinks breeders need have
no doubt about future markets for any
stylish, full sized carriage horses they
NAV be enabled to put upon the Lon
don market. In advocating the produc-
ton of such full sized carriage horses
as now appear in the parks and fash
ionable streets Of London he does not
disparage the fashionable hackney
which adorns the elegant victoria, but
wants the larger type to be bred in
equal numbers.

To Dust a Room.

To properly dust room it must be
thoroughly done, and that means care
fully done. A feather brush or a
turkey wing is excellent for brushing
the backs of pictures and one of the
best wall busters is a clean cotton
mop. The furniture is busted before
the chairboard and floor. One of the
best busters is a cotton cloth wruDg
out of turpentine and dried. 1t ac-
cumulates all dust, does not scatter it
and brightens the furniture. Wooden
cloths are best for the chairboard and
floor. When using polish, old stocking
legs are good for applying the polish
or polishing the wood. The cheap cot
ton ones contain little lint, are soft and
serve for this purpose. Windows may
be busted with a clean feather brush.
though cheesecloth is good for polish
ing them; also soft tissue paper or
crumpled newspapers. If heavy fur
niture cannot be removed from a room,
protect the pieces with sheets. A soft
whisk broom answers splendidly for
cleaning upholstered pieces

To clean a white Milan or a split
straw, scrub with a tooth brush or
nail brush dipped in a weak solution
of oxalic acid and water, then with
clear water, not wetting more than
necessary. Then scatter precipitate Of
sulphur and lay in the sun. Brush
off with a clean brush when dry and
your hat will be clean and white. A
black Milan, or hemp braid, or horse
hair, clean with nap side of velvet
dipped in alcohol and rubbed thor
oughly with the tips of the fingers.
Black chip, give a coat of bottle shoe
backing Colored hats, clean with
gasoline and a piece of velvet Faded
hats can be tinted with dye made of oil
paints and gasoline. The only remedy
for chip hats that are sunburned or
faded is to give them coat of polish
or take them to professional. White,
coIored and black lace, or net hats can
be cleaned by dipping the entire hat,
devoid of trimming, in clean gasoline
and drying outside.

The Happy Woman.

The really happy woman does exist,
though we are apt to overlook her quiet
presence in the noisy circle of the dis
contented and unsatisfed. Somehow
her voice is seldom heard.
1t seems unnecessary for her TO
sound her own joy bells, though her
less-favored sisters do not hesitate to
send forth the town crier with the news
of their domestic discords, or to pub
lish in hourly editions the history of
undeserved sorrows and misfortunes
The really happy woman is not al
ways smart" Her frOcks are not al
ways described as creations in the
society columns. She does not confuse
the terms Happiness" and pleasure"
for she realizes the wide difference be-
tween them.
She knows that happiness is gun
shy" and is elusive game, which sell
dom falls to the bag of the hunter, but
rather comes shyly and quietly and I'M
sought as one sits in a garden with
book or work, in the nursery with the
babies, or in any spot remote from the
crowd

CHAPTER MI.

In the dim upper hallway, Lara read
in the face of her mother, hard and white
as ivory, that the clash of wills had come.
A slender arm barred the door through
which the daughter had to pass.
Lara, what do you mean to do?"
Il mean to hear what this man has to
say"
"At midnight-listen to an outlaw"
Yes; let me pass. :"
The elder woman did not move her
arm. Slowly, softly, she said: 81 say
that you shall not Order Uncle Joey to
send the thief away, or you and ARE
estranged.''
Lara faltered before the revolving pos
sibilities of the moment. Mother" she
implored, don't poison the years l am
a grown woman-I see my way clearly"
She leaned against the arm that cross
face close to hers in the feeble light
burned away her self-control. The rigid
ity of the bar suffocated-as if it had
pressed against her throat. Every fiber
of her young body sprang tense to burst
the inSufferable bond. Not tissue re-
Taxed, although the bar was forced. Her
mothers fingers scraped like wood across
the casing The sickening sound made an
impershable record in the girls brain.
Mortified at the thing she had done. Lara
would have fallen at her mothers feet,
praying forgiveness, had there reached
her now a murmur of pain or relenting.
But the face was not changed. The SOW
ereign will would not have broken had
she hewn her way into the room with a
sword. Low-spoken, freezing utterances
found the brain of the girl. promptings of
the dread imperfect faculty:
Go, grown woman, who sees her way
clearly Go with the thief to your lover
who dares not come to you! Go out
to the hunted ship, then-with the thief
and his dull tool -
Lara seized her hat and shawl and dart
ed past the pitiless voice, shutting her
ears with her hands. Down the stairway
she sped. her one thought to fee. There
was truce below; the awfulness of defeat
behind. The men had heard
| nothing. Breen stood by the door, his
face whtened with dust. The planter
waited near the foot of the stairs-an-
other obstacle.
IO 10 luulueE QuiChiS SIC ACtu,
you
Where are you going, Lara" the old
man gasped.
TO the ship with the other refugees y
Not with this man, child"
He is Mr.. Constable'S friend"
But I'll so with you, dear! III hsVe
| a carriage brought--''
| In the name of pity, Uncle joey
don't leave mother alone longer-uT
there she said desperately. Il am 60
ing out to the ship. Your nephew has
asked me to be-his wife. This man will
| take me to him. Go to mother -
The planter turned last look at Breer
and obeyed, his face a field of conflict
| Lara threw the shawl about her shout
| ders and hurried to the door, which Breer
