CHAPTER XXI.
A Bar of Soap.


Late that evening Betty Mercer ana
Dallas were writing verses of condo
lence to be signed by all of us and
put under the door into Jim's room
when Bella came running down the
stairs.
Dial was reading the first verse
when she came. Listen to this,

He broke out over night
With a rash that Is maddening he elias
Then he caught sight of Bella's

"Delirious!" everybody exclaimed.

door carefully when I went down to

babbling on the bed, with sheet

to come up and sit in the room with

But Mr.. HARRISON did not smile He

said quietly. land / wouldn't be sur

After that. of course, none of the
others would confess that he was

! the sound of voices, and after while
there was a rapid slamming of doors
and the sound of some one running
down TO the second floor. Then quiet
again.
In an hour or so they sent for Elan

came down again soon, however. anC

CURIOUS SHOPS OF JAPAN
HOW Flowers. Meat, shoes and Other
Articles Are Sold In tho
hiikado's Land.

The shops and booths of Japan are
of unfailing interest. Here the green
grocer and fruitseller has arranged his
wares till it seems as though one
looked upon a great bouquet. There
the flower shop blazes In brilliance and
the lantern maker squats at his multi
colored task. At the next entrance
we perhaps see a man severing chick
en- meat from the bone, and he per-
forms the operation as skillfully as
the surgeon with his dissecting knife.
Two or three PAGES farther on one
is confronted with typical Japanese
shoe store. The newcomer is at once
startled at the immense quantity of
this simple footwear and the many
places where it is sold. but he soon
finds a solution to his query when he
hears that Japanese man annually
makes away with from eight to ten
pairs.
But curious things are not found In
the shops alone. The green vegetable
peddler carries loads heavy enough
for horse, but still has enough en-
ergy to call his wares as he goes.
One niarvels at those wonderful, big,
snow white radishes he sells; green
onions. carrots, fruits and even lotus
roots dug from the muddy bottoms of
ponds. Fancy yourself eating long
burdock roots which grow in any coun-
try Backyard The Japanese consider
these a toothsome article.-Christian
Herald.

STORM FULLY CURES WOMAN.
Mrs. Mary Wentsell Had Been Hope
less Paralytic Three Years.

During a terrific electrical storm
which swept over the region around
Reading, Pa, last week Mrs. Mary R.
Wentsell, who had been a paralytic
for three years, found herself able
to move her arm. Later she was
able to stand and has since walked
to church. Her strange cure was an
nounced from the pulpit at Sunday
mornings service by the Rev. A. r.
Yost, whose statement answered the
question on the lips of many persons
who could not understand how Mrs.
Wentsell came to be in her long va
cant pew.
Mrs. Wentsell's cure is attributed
by the minister to prayer. Members
OF the congregation, he said, had al
ways remembered the woman's Attic
ton when asking for Divine mercy.
Mrs. Wentsell was in bed during the
storm The lightning played around
her home almost continuously. Find
ing herself able to move she cried
out Her family helped her to her
feet and gradually her muscles
strengthened and she was able to
walk.

Forty wedding guests af the large

ptomaine poisoning, it is said.
Among the yiands served at the
wedding luncheon were several sal

is probable that one of these dishes
contained the poison.
