 ''These friends cannot tell you. This must tell you,' and he picked up a mirror and held it before her. "This is the truest judge of all.

Now, we none of us advise her. Tonight a young man is to have a first presentation of his play. It is part of his life, The direc tor of a theater?

 "And what is all of this as opposed to young girls entire future" asked Mrs. Winthrop angrily.
 ''Nothing," replied Vavin calmly. 'ebut here is a beautiful moment for you-for me.

 ''I'm going to play tonight" said Dora, standing up with tears in her eyes as she started for the door.
 '"This is all rank sophistry," ex- claimed Elliott. "You say let her de- eide, and then you preach at her, while we stand here whipsawed and gag ged."
 "One moment" said Vavin, with q smile, walking over to Dora. "She is now informed-awake. Say your own arguments without me-" And, raising her hand, he kissed it and passed out of the room.

He Loved LIis En.rias.

James MacNeill Whistler looked upon life as upon kind of warfare and was never so happy as when he was quarreling with somebody. He is quoted as having said when asked if he did not have many friends: "Yes, have many friends, and am grate- ful to them, but those whom most I love are my enemies, not in a Biblical sense. Oh, no, but because they keep one always busy, always up to the mark, either fighting them or proving them idiots"

EETN0s0NR critical opinion Of New YorK SSSSss9D citv are generally sDugly asleep in their little cots when the momentous decisions of which they have been delivered are being read by the anxious and nervous authors, who sit up ever until dawn to learn their fate. Kind newspaper publishers more kind probably than they intend ed to be to these nervous folk of the stage-have in recent years adopted a policy of issuing a special edition of their various newspapers for what is known as the midnight sale-a sale that has grown with the all night cafe and the development of the restaurant section. that has kept large number of citizens out of bed if not out of mis- chief. The rhilanthropic results of t-4cse so called early editions have been at least the shortening of the tor. ture of the actor who has had what is so blithely called his Broadway op' portunity."
 Despite the many friends who con- gratulated him and the applause of the u0ACAS, 11OlSOuO hAC" LAdL HIS p1CCG had not succeeded. One or two former associates in the companies that he had been in called loudly for a speech at the end of the second act; but, de spite all this and even Ludlow's ef- fusive praise, he knew that his play had not "got over'-that is. over the footliSnts.
 He had been surprised at Dora s prompt appearance at the rehearsal He had taken an opportunity to thank her formally, and she had replied to him with equal reserve.
 Before the curtain went up on the night performance he went back to her dressing room and spoke more frankly:
 ''Dora, you have been more than kind. I showed myself very weak last night, and you showed yourself a wo- man with great courage. Whatever the outcome of this, shall never for get it."
 They were talking through the half opened door of her dressing room. with but few minutes left for her final preparations, so that her Thank you, MT. Holcomb," left him still in doubt as to. whether. she had under gone any change in feeling.
 He had gone back at the end of the play mainly to thank her for going through the "big scene'' as he had re- hearsed it and hoping against hope to get some expression from her that would quiet his turbulent spirit, but he found her dressing room besieged by the Winthrops, Elliott, Professor Full lerton and the haunting Aunt Cornelia. The little conversation that they had was therefore brief and formal, and, while there was some talk of a supper party after the theater, he was quick to observe that there was no calcula. tion about having him in 1t and little enthusiasm about his part of the even ing's venture. Vavin had left the theater after friendly handshake to catch train for Boston, where he was to deliver one of his tirrepressible lec- tures"
 T will return tomorrow night on the Il o'clock train. Do me the honor to have supper with me. I will talk with you of your play and other things" he had said to H0lcomb.

neatness CannOt be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu- tional remedies Deafness is caused by an in- famed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is 1nflamed you have a rumbIing sound or imperfect hear ing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever {; nine cases out or ten are caused by CataFTh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

We viii get along fairly well in this

have seed flax for sale and in cases
where they cannot afford to sell on

get assistance from the local banks.

Dawson-We are in a position to
take care of all parties wishing to get

taken up the question of seed grain

the only way they seem anxious to

ers here who will need assistance as
they have no funds with which to
purchase seed grain. In my estimation
there will be from fifty to sixty who

Sentinel Butte-This portion of Bill

itself so far as seed being available,
but there Is some need of money for

for sale naturally feel that they should

Darlington.
Carrington-Up to the present time

sons who have complained that thav
were unable to get seed and they are
men who are always unsuccessful in

them seed for this year. They are
short on feed, but considerable of this
