 The certainty that his diagnosis was right fairly infuriated the rival suitor. Originally he had approached the girl Tn spirit of sordid speculation, with only the counterfeit pretence of love upon his lips. But as the womanly sweetness and the unattainable nature or the prize became apparent, so did his teeiings change, and he who came to barter with womans heart remained to beg for kindly glance, to yearn Tor word that might give him hope TOT Hews was deeply, passionately smitten with Eunice Trevecca To such pass had it come with him that to win her he would have been willing to forego the golden fruit of all his plottings and schemings.
 Again and again did he try to an proach the forbidden topic of his love. but always with the same quiet avoid. ance of it on her part He had prom. lsed to respect her wishes, but the hoodgates of passion were at length overfiowed. and he resolved to know his fate once and for all.
 To help his cause somewhat he sent Eunice anonymously a marked copy of society paper which author.

itatively announced the engagement of Clara Passavant and Wilfrid Sten- his, with the added intelligence that Easter. This time there was no mis- take-the gossips were right.
 On various occasions throughout the winter Wilfrid had tried to see Eunice-sometimes successfully, but more often failing-in a sincere en- deavor and desire to renew their old footing. But the girl met his ad. vances with such coldness and pal pablo indifference that at length he came to the sorrowful conclusion that she was hopelessly offended with him.
 Then, and then only, did he put the momentous question to the daughter of the house of Passavant, and was at once accepted. She had been ready to yield months ago; in her inmost heart she wondered why the man had hesi- tated so long.
 When Eunice received the paper which Hews so thoughtfully sent she happened to be alone. She could not help seeing the paragraph, encircled as it was with broad blue pencil marks. As she took in the sense of the printed lines her lip curled scornfully. as she said, half-aloud:
 q hope she is satisfied now!"
 Quite on the impulse of the mo- ment she ran to her little desk-one of Wilf's keepsakes and rapidly penned this note:
 Dear Mir. Stennis Some kind friend has just sent me a copy of the Home Journal containing the announcement of your engagement and forthcoming mar riage. As one of your oldest friends I want to be among the first to congratu- late you, and to offer my sncerest wishes for your lasting happiness.

 "Eh, lass" he said, getting up from his chair. going to her side at the other end of the table. and taking her face between his horny hands. "thoust gotten tha dose. but doan't 'ee fret; tha ither 'ooman has na' landed i'm yet, an she will na'" He sealed the words with hearty, compassionate kiss, and went heavily back to his seat, chuckling to himself But Eunice shook her head hopelessly

 'I wish I could think so," sighed Eunice, smiling wanly, but it's no use; he will never come back to us now-it has gone too far!" And so 1t seemed. for with his engagement to Miss Passavant openly announced it looked as if Wifi were indeed fire. vocably lost. Then her pride came to her rescue, and with some attempt at abandon Eunice exclaimed:

Missing the Point.

The complaints from farmers that life in
the rural districts is not as pleasant as
pictured by those who favor the back
to the-land'' movement, miss the point
entirely. There is no room for discussion
over the question raised by those who
contend that farm life has discomforts
that make it uninviting 10 young men and
young women. Certainly the young
people find the city more attractive under
present conditions. Otherwise there
would be no need for the "back-to the
land' movement.
Philosophers and logicians, magazine
writer's and civic workers may speculate
TO their hearts content on theories as to
why the rural communities lose popula-
ton and the cities gain what the country
loses. But the real reason is so obvious
as to make speculation unnecessary and
absurd. The loss to the rural communi-
ties is oCCasloned because the Young men
and women from the farms prefer the city
under any circumstances rather than rural
life under present conditions.

Fighting Typhoid Germs.

The statistics relating to typhoid vacci-
nation, in the army, are both interesting
and encouraging. About one-sixth of the
United States Army was inocculated with
the typhoid vaccine, and the returns show
that only one person in 1900 had the dis
ease and none OF them died, while in the
unvaccinated part of the Army, one out
of $50 had the disease and there were
many deaths.
These figures are certainly very signif-
cant, and indicate that typhoid fever is
going the way Of smallpox, not again to
become real scourge to the country.
There will be, however, some serious
speculation about this, as SO much nocu-
lation and vaccination as the various NAL
aides will require, that men will undergo
considerable change in their general
makeup If a man Incorporates into his
vital processes the various prophylactics
intended to ward off disease, he will be-
come compound of resisting mediums
and occupy SO unnatural an attitude as to
invite other troubles, for there seems to
be plenty Of them waiting to avail them
selves Of every opportunity.-Ohio State

Caused Generals Death.

Although it was on May ?, 1868, that
General 'Stonewall" Jackson received
the wounds from his own soldiers that
caused his death several days later, 1t was
not until this year that John Hays, a
Northern soldier, who was a member of
the Third Division Brigade, Second Army
Corps, learned he was the cause of the
death of the great Southern soldier His
discovery reveals the actual facts of the
circumstances leading to the death of
General Jackson
Hays few days ago visited the field of
the battle of Charlottesville for the first
time since the Civil War. His brigade of
cavalry had been ordered to report to
General Berry while the battle was in
progress, but General Berry could not be
located. Hays was selected to go down
the road, report to General Couch. and
ask where the brigade should 60 When
he found General Couch his reply was:
damn it, Go where the fighting is"
Hays tells the story in these words:
when | returned my brigade had
gone. While searching for them | saw
little squad of horsemen up the road |
thought they were Union men and rode
toward them. 1t was after o'clock in
the evening and | could not see plainly.
| had gone but little way when heavy
volley of musketry was fired so close to
me that the guns seemed to flash in my
face.
MY horse, never under fire before,
wheeled around and started to run down
the hill. As it turned | could see there
was quite commotion in the group of
horseme1 on the road, and the thought
instantly occurred TO me that the volley
had taken effect on those horsemen and
that had escaped because | was on the
lower ground.
Upon reading of.the account of the
shooting of General Jackson several DAYS
later ! suspected that he had received his
wounds from the volley of musketry, but

those scenes recently.

one of whom was a Mr.. TAYLOR, whose
father had been surgeon in the Confed-
crate Army and was on duty at the battle
of Charlottesville. | pointed out as
nearly as possible where had seen the
squad of horsemen on the evening of Nav
2, 1868, and Mr. Taylor said that that was
where General Jackson was MORALLY
wounded.
"A monument near the spot | had
pointed out marks the place where Cen
eral Jackson fell.
81 was riding my horse in fancied
security on that night back in 1868 when
that volley of musketry was fired by
General Jackson's men. and had almost
reached the Confederate lines uncon-
sciously"

visions:
All farmers holding permits from the

CURED to submit new cows introduced
into their herds to the tuberculn test.
All permits applied for after October I
will not be approved until the farmer sub
mits his cattle TO the tubercuin test.
Ali producers holding permits from the
District Health Department must allow
their herds to be tuberculin tested on sus-
picion that any of their cows are sus-
pected of having tuberculosis.
This will modify considerably the
original order of the Health Department,
which decreed that after November 3 nc
milk save that from tuberculin tested
cows could enter the District
