.MiKs ARM. was m d de the subject of considerable exaggeration. It was the afternoon of the Thursday before Easter. The church was open and some ladies of the congregation were arranging floral decorations. Mrs. Harwood had desired to have a deco rator from the city and had offered to pay the charges, but MT. Winslow had insisted upon home talent. &
 Now, the simple fact is that Count Kassimir was taking one of his rides. and, desiring to see Mrs. Harwood. whom he believed to be at the church. he went there to find her. It was re- ported. however, that he went to call MT. Winslow to account for having made statements derogatory to his character.
 It was one of the counts delights to stop running horse in the shortest possible space. He would dash up to & place as if with no intention of halt ing and then halt. He came whirling into the semicircular roadway that led from the street to the church door with an astonishing chatter of hoofs and with results very surprising to himself. At that moment one of the Kelvin boys, superintended by Annie, was wheeling a barrow laden with potted plants along a narrow strip of boards that had been laid upon the mud. The rushing steed came up unseen behind , the boy, who lodged for his life, up setting the barrow, from which a great mass of pots and flowers rolled under the horses feet
 1 The animal shied like a zigZag flash of lightning, and Count Kassimir kept straight on through the air. landing on all fours without serious damage. He was up in an instant, but the horse had vanished around a corner of the church. In this direction, however, there was no exit, and the animal was not quite scared enough to dash him. self against stone wall. He stopped. ] and Kassimir caught him and began to beat him unmercifully.
 At this there was an outcry, and MT
 Winslow, with others, came running from the church. The clergyman un- derstood the situation at glance. He ! laid an iron hand on Kassimir's arm. 1 '"The horse is somewhat excited" said he. Tt is better that I shoulL

luSter or n1S t1Cle and his fame or as an attraction at their house. Thus only can be ex- plained the determination of Mrs. Harwood that Count Kassimir should sing in St. PauPs at Easter.
 The count had been gaining flesh faster than he liked and had taken to horseback exercise for its reduction. Mounted upon a splendid thorough bred from the Harwood stables, he would tklr through the streets of Bay side without the smallest regard for those who might be in his way.

w nat Has Been Twice Proved.
 In gratitude for complete relief from aches and pains of bad backs-from dis dressing kidney ills-thousands have publicly recommended Doan's Kidney Pills. Residents of this vicinity who so testified years ago, now say their cures were permanent. This testimony doubly proves the worth of Doan's Kidney Pills to Canaan kidney sufferers.
 Mrs. Paul Chapin, 236 N. Elm St., Torrington, Conn.,, says: My kidneys were very weak and every cold l con- tracted settled in them.

Swat the Fly First.

''If a fly forces It's way into the
house and the house catches on fire
at the same time, swat the ny first. !"
This Is the order In a sanatorium in
which the defense against flies are
as we'll considered as the defense
against burglars. There Is no doubt
that flies can carry the germs OF ty-
phoid and other diseases and plant
them where the soil Is favorable. We
may be immune to typhoid and con-
sumption, but II we could see the feet
Of the fly through the microscope and
guess where he gathered the filth
that he often carries when he aIights
on the dining room table we would
give him no quarter. In general the
unseen things are the most import
ant ad they are the things that we
are liable TO overlook, but we should
discriminate against the house fly.

HUMAN yULrUREs.

The greatest enemy of mankind is
man himself. The truth OF this as
sertion is abundantly proved by the
daily press. as from time to time it is
called upon to chronicle the latest in
stance Of mans degrading traffic in
creatures of his own image. Just now
the morbid interest of the public is
|centered In Lexington, where a man
and woman are held behind the bars
charged with criminally abducting, or
inducing to leave home and go with
them. two little girls. aged 10 and IA
years. respectively. It is charged that
they induced the children to go with
them to Charlotte, promising them "a
good time. fine clothes to wear and
no work to do"
The trial Is to take place next Mon
day and some twenty-five witnesses
will be called upon to tell what they
know. Like all trials OF this nature
1t may be depended upon to attract
large crowds. which will throng TO
hear the NhNe sorry business threshed
out in detail. Without indnlging in
any hasty ex parte judgments, those
who have reviewed the facts in the
case as published in the state press
can hardly escape the belief that il is
another instance Of criminal abduc-
ton, and that the chief actors in the

requires expert instruction which is
not to be had at ordinary medical

INGRATiTUDE.

"A man whose life has not been
honorable nor creditable" is the re-
ported characterization of John d.
Rockefeller by William u. Dodd, prof
essor of history in the University of
Chicago, in speech at Louisa, Va,
Monday. We are constitutionally OPP
posed to regard John ID. as pecul-
iarly ideal in his methods of doing
business, and have a good deal of
sympathy with the Independent COM
panies which have been forced to this
wall by Standard Oil methods At
the same time we cannot help feel
ing that there is note of heartless
ingratitude in Professor Dodd's words
which comes with poor grace from
the representative of an institution
which has grown great solely through
the generosity of the aged philan-
thropist.
Some may read in Professor
Dodd's arraignment laudable indie
pendence and fearlessness but We
cannot escape the conviction that il
was lamentably deficient in feeling
John d. Rockefeller is fast approach
ing his eternal reward and has done
a great deal in his later years to re-
deem his earlier failings. The Uni
versity of Chicago or the men whose
daily bread comes from its Golfers
have little license to pass Judgment on
the hand that has lifted it up.
