A Wronu Attitude.

Hundreds of working girls to-day,
who are toiling TO support aging par
ents. Or to aid younger children, are
incomparably superior to many of the
a]ristocrats of earth, because they are
developing character-which is the
only thing in this life that counts in
the great scheme.
But the working girl and man who
are filled with envy and hatred toward
the rich are not to be admired or re.
spected merely because they labor.
If you work only because you must.
and hate your work. and hate every
man who has wealth and leisure, do
not imagine your labor makes you
worthier than his wealth in the eyes
of the Creator, for it does not.
Whether you are poor or rich is of
small consideration in the long run,
but what you are in character and
principle is OF eternal importance.

an Oriole flashed across the flower

driveway. There were only two this
morning; evidently Norah was not
going.
The Cavenaugh girls had created al
most a scandal and a revolution when
they first appeared at Glenwood. Peo-
pie had read and talked about women
riding like men, they had even seer
pictures of them, but to find them
close at hand vas something of a
shock. Yet, when they saw with what
a the Cavenaugh girls took the
hedges, bitches and fences, how their
mounts lever suffered from saddle
gals, and, above all, how the two al.
ways kept even pace with the best
men riders, opinion veered; and sew
eral ladies changed their habits.
Norah, who saw he droll side of
things, once said that the accepted
riding habit for women reminded her
of a kimono for a harp.
Darlington stole gently down to the
horses. He had great affection for the
| sleek thoroughbreds. Their ears went

whinnied softly. he rubbed their

before Darlington would have sworn
that he was guilty; now he knew not
what to believe. He grew b%ewildered.
There had certainly been a burglar,
but who was he?

The young lawyer concluded to
grope no longer. Somebody else would
have to lead him out of this labyrin-
thine maze. All at once there came
to him a sense of infinite relief. Prov

SYNOPSIS.

Darlington loved Kate Cavenaugh,
daughter of Multi millionaire Henry Cav
enaugh. The latter liked Darlington, but
refused him as Il son-in-law. Young Car
rington, a lawyer, held evidence of GRIM
inai financial operations, of which Cave
nauch was guilty. 1t was C~arrington's
duty to prosecute the rich man, but he
decided to lay the whole matter before
Kate. He did SO the next day. The young
woman decided that to drop the case
would be cowardly even though the ac-
cused was her father. C~avenaugh offered
Darlington a position at | 1000 a year.
He refused it. He hid his violence in the
C~avcnaugh safe, after being introduced
to The uilliona!re'S father.

him for sugar loaves. Had it not been
for the night and the attendant mys-
teries, his happiness would have been
complete. People waste many pre-
cious moments in useless retrospect
ton; so Darlington resolutely forced
the subject from his mind. One thing
was certain, the C~avenaughs knew who
the burglar was; and there was some
thing strange in the idea of IN empty
safe in a millionaire's home. Pshaw!
He took out the expected sugar loaves
and extended them on both palms.
The pair Tipped his hand and crunched
the sweets with evident relish.

Cit for 20 miles, straight away or

C~arrington's pulse rose. Kate was
approaching them. She was pale but
serene. She smiled a good morning,
which took in the gentleman and the
groom.

"Not a moment; 1 only just got

She mounted without assistance
and adjusted her skirts. The filly be.
gan to waltz, impatient to be off.
"To the beach," Darlington asked,
swinging into his saddle.
She nodded and they started of
toward the highway at a smart trot.
Once there, the animals broke into
an easy canter, which they maintained
down to a walk.

hand toward the sea line.

scent Of clover.
"Ill race you to the beach," she
cried. suddenly.
Done: III give you to the sixth

nothing at all in the world but this
beautiful girl, the horses, and the
white road that wound in and out to

A Wonderful Flyer .

The most remarkable claim ever made
of the possibilities of human aviation is
embodied in the announcement recently
by Wallace e. Tillinghast, prominent
citizen and vice-presi lent of a Worcester
(Mass.) manufacturing concern, who
claims to have secretly invented, built and
tested an @roplane capable OF carrying
three passengers, and in which he says he
has flown from Worcester to New York
thence to Boston and then back, dis
tance OF 800 miles. A speed of 120 miles
an hour was maintained at various times,
it is asserted.
The test was on Sept. 8 at night, accord
ing to Mr.. Tillinghast, who says he Cir
cled the statue OF liberty at an elevation
trip by coast guard on the Long Island
coast when flying low, the fact being re-
corded in the newspapers at the time.
He says the machine is a monoplane,
weighing l $50 pounds, with a spread OF
seventy-two feet and equipped with 100
horse power gasolene engine Of special
construction.
On his trip to New York Mr.. Tilling-
hast said he carried two mechanics, who
made repairs to motor cylinder while
the @roplane scaled in the air.
MIR. Tillinghast states that he will bring
the machine to Worcester in Februar.
and that soon after he will demonstrat,
his achievement and later compete in tn,
national aviation contest.

Hunting Season Victims.

Fourteen persons met their deaths by
firearms during the big game season which
closed in Maine for this year at midnight
last Wednesday. Five were mistaken for
deer by hunters, two were killed by the
accidental discharge of their own weap-
ons, three were sccidently shot by their
companions, one was shot by boys, and
two were shot by brothers with guns they
did not know were loaded.
In 1908, during the big game season,
thirteen persons met their death by acci-
dent-twelve by the use Of firearms and
one by drowning. Two were shot by
brothers, two BY companions, five shot
themselves by the accidental discharge Of
their weapons, two were shot by being
mistaken for deer and one man was shot
BY hunter while the latter was aiming at
. deer.
The big game season for 1907 disclosed
the fact that for the first time in twelve
years not person was killed in mistake
fora deer, and further than that, not one
person was wounded in this way. There
were three fatal accidents during the
hunting season in 1907.

Flour from uawdust il another step In
the movement for the conservation OF for
ct resources. The United States consul
1t Christiania, Norway, has sent to this
roverpment suggestion along this line
that may be Of value to American lumber
man who are wrestling with the problem
of sawdust waste.
The nour in question Il not the kind
that goes into the making OF light, fluffy
biscuits, and the other kind which ars
not light, or fialxy pastry, but it is an in
rredient OF dynamite, inoleum, xyolite,
which for the information OF the man on
the street il kind OF artificial flooring,
and other things. 1t 10 not put forward
e new discovery, for it has been in use
for several years in Europe, and to small
extent in this country.
The wood -four is ground in . cheap
mill, very similar to those which grind
corn and rye. Pine and spruce sawdust is
used in Europe, ana after. passing through
the stones and the boIting chest, it is
sacked or baled for shipment. 1t is then
worth twelve to thirteen dollars ton.
The flour has number Of uses, one Of
which is in the making Of dynamite. 1t
il the absorbent for the nitroglycerine,
which is the explosive ingredient. Wood
-four dynamite is inferior to that made
with infusorial earth as the absor bent !;
but it serves many purposes, and is
- n,,t der 70 sa ~ ho
smallest prospective uses for the product.
Linoleum makers mix it with inseed oil
and give body to their floor coverings. 1t
is not considered quite equal to ground
cork for this purpose, as it is less elastic;
but it is cheaper and meets requirements
for medium grades.
The -four ILLS an important place in
the manufacture OF xyolite, kind OF
artificial flooring, resembling wood In
weight, and stone in other respects. 1t is
used for kitchen floors, and in halls, cor
ridors, cafes, restaurants, and public
rooms. 1t is impervious to water, and is
practically fire-proof. 1t is floor material
in some Of the German war vessels. 1t is
so used because it is not liable to take fire
or splinter il struck by shells.
Many additional uses for wood -four
will probably be found. The amount OF
sawdust to be had in this country is
practically unlimited, and millmen will
welcome any plan that will lessen the
waste AT the sswdust dump. Norway ex-
ports thousands of tons OF this sawdust
flour yearly, and the United States takes
some Of it. Germany is q large manu-
facturer also, and has been for years.
England is an extensive buyer, and much
goes to France.

The Life-Savers.

The annual report of the superintendent
OF the life-saving service, Mr.. Kimball,
shows that during the last fiscal year there
were 1876 marine disasters, involving the
lives Of $500 persons which called the life
saving service into activity. Seventy-two
vessels were totally lost, although only
thirty people lost their lives in conse-
quence.
The total value of the property involved
in these disasters was S16, 1O6, ,0s0, the value
OF property lost being $2,295.3SO. OF the
1875 vessels meeting disaster, the life
saving service rendered aid to ,319, valued
with their cargoes at sl3,316,s15.
