Mrs. Saville was silent; her brows
were knit, her eyes downcasi; yet
Hope dared to take the fine small hand
which lay on the arm Of the chair.
Mrs. Saville did not draw 1t away. The

Hope had sunk on her knees, ana
kissed the hands which held hers.
then her head fell forward. and Hugh
sprang forward to lift her.
"She Is quite overcome" he exclaim-
ed, almost Indignantly. "She is but
ghost Of her former SELF And he

Happiness will be rapid restora,

men to use on burglars and other

CORNER IN SCENT PIECES
Was the Involuntary Work OK
Dime Slot Machine Company.

Was the Involuntary work OK
Dime Slot Machine Company.
The disappearance of the scent
piece has for years been a matter Oh
mild speculation. The New York sun
says persons are aware that a large
proportion of the coins of this denom-
nation which remained in circulation
when the government stopped issuing
them are peaceably slumbering IN
sundry large fat canvas bags in the
vaults of certain electrical manufac-
turing company of Chicago. They are
not for sale just yet.
Each of the coins is an evidence OF
petty larceny.
Years ago the company equipped
many telephone pay stations with dime
slot machines. 1t was supposed that
they could be worked only with dimes.
The Scent pieces were becoming rare
and no thought was taken of them.
Hardly six months passed before one
of the telephone companies discovered
that the collectors were yielding q
harvest of Scent pieces. Then from
all over the country came similar COM
plants.
Each company forwarded the pieces
to the manufacturing company and
more or less politely asked that cor
responding number of dimes or
check for an equivalent amount be
sent back in exchange.
A council was held at the office OF
the manufacturing company. The cost
of correcting the boxes was compared
with fairly trustworthy information
of the number of Scent pieces in cir
culation. 1t was found that balance
was in favor of the cents and it was
decided to accept the pieces as dimes.
Gradually the inpour of Scent pieces
narrowed down to an intermittent
current. The company seemed to have
about all the pieces.
1t is said that If ever the premium
on Scent pieces goes high enough the
coins will be offered to collectors at
prices based upon the original cost to
the company, plus per cent year,
plus cost of storage, plus cost OF guard
ing, plus cost of carrying the fund
upon the books. Long ago the slot
machines that collected them were rel
egated to the scrap heap.

Russia Leads in Wheat

Washington, JAM 18-The United

world and Russia has won that distinc-

ehe remarkable harvest of 1888, 900, 900
bushels, which constitutes the largest
crop ever harvested by any country
ana rs, 900, 900 bushels greater than
,nat OF the United States. Only twice
las the wheat production of Russia
surpassed that of the United States,
the first in 1904, when theIcrop here
was partial failure. About one
ioufth OF the Russian crop is exported.

A Philadelphia who was formerly

One day he was talking with an old

know. IS
What became Of the Hoover fam

"Oh," answered the latter. Tom
Hoover did very well. Got to be an

STATEMENT BY UCHIDA
PLEASES STATE DEPARTMENT

Washington, Jan. 15.-The state de-
partment has not received any direct
official expression from foreign govern
ments interested regarding Secretary
Knox's note suggesting naturalization
of Manchuria railroads, and officials re-
fuse to attach much importance to the
views of some Of the foreign newspa-
pers unfavorable to the proposition.
In some instances the newspapers are
known not to be in the confidence Of
their government, nor to exercise any
potent influence in shaping their poll
cies. This is believed to be true as to
the Japanese press.
It is known at the state department
that Mr.. Knox's naturalization sugges-
tion is receiving most careful consid-
GRAFTON in the chancellories of the pow
ers interested, and because Of the ex-
ceptional importance Of the matter it
is not thought replies reasonably can
be expected for some time.
No Doubt of Wisdom of Plan
The department entertains no doubt
of the wisdom of taking the Manchu-
rian railroads out of Eastern politics,
thus minimizing the danger of war,
and believes no country would profit
by such a course more than Japan
Baron Uchida, the Japanese ambassa-
dor, it is believed expressed the views
of his government in an interview re-
Gently publish I'd, in Tokyo, in the
course of which he is reported to have
said:
"America's stand with reagrd to the
preservation of peace and the integrity
of China has been, and will be eaxctly
Identical with ours. We must under.
stand that Americas policy toward
japan and the Orient as a whole always
has been on the same peaceful route. -
This expression of Baron Uchida,
which has Just become known here, is
highly satisfactory to the officials OF
the state department.

ginning, when the door opened, and
Hope Desmond walked slowly into the
room. She seemed very pale and fra
gile In her simple black dress. No
sooner had she caught sight of Hugh
than her cheeks flushed, her great
brown eyes lit up with look half joy,
half terror, and her lips parted with
slight cry.

of the institution to deal literally
