THE SONG RECORD

I crowded about a most modern sing ing machine. He elbowed through 1 them.
 '.That-that record!" he demanded
 Let me see that last record!" | Sure!' and the rancher reached back in the cabinet for it. Wasn't 1 that great? 1 heard her sing in Den yer Monday night and I tried to get several of her records, but this is the i only one. It seems she has refused to sing any: other song for the com prima donna should pick an old love song like that..' Glad she did!' chorused the. cow l boys.
 1 that way comented Sandy AIph. Dick grabbed the record and on it i read ' 'F'orgotten,' Soprano Solo by Mile. Eloise Remey." He almost kissed that record.
 MT. Niles he turned to the ranch CT, ,"herding is pretty slack right now. Can't you spare me for few days?" He waited impatiently for the reply; the midnight flyer. Will you ride in with me and bring back my horse:"
 Dick must be going to corral that Forgotten grill"
 Don't blame him,"
 But Dick heard none of the ehaffinS. His ears were ringing with the song. All the ga1foping way to the train, then on and on to Denver, he heard it. There he found that the prima donna, to whom America. had sudden ly bowed the knee. had gone on to San Francisco. The next train took Dick.
 He reached there too late to see her before the performance. but he sat through 1t entranced while Eloise poured out her soul in wonderful song But through every intermission, Dick song Forgotten!
 Had she forgotten him? Would she forgive him?
 When the two faced each other, neither had to ask such questions. Eyes told in a flash what tongues might long have stumbled over
 You have been such a long time coming," she said.
 Yes. It was my foolish pride-and then I thought you had forgotten me until I heard that song."
 What song
 the story of the song and of his journey to her.
 That song melted the last bit of false pride. I think And, somehow. 1 felt that, you did remember me and love me"
 T sang it for you" she said simply "Of course I love to sing, but it was for you chiefly that I went into public opera. I thought sometime you might hear and if you loved me, you might come back to me, Then, when the phonegraph company wanted me to S1ng TOT lu0kA TGluSCU, ana then l thought that if I sang Forgotten as I used to sing 1t to you. you might hear it and at least remember the old days" And then she added happily, I'm so glad I did.'
 The eyes that looked so deep into hers were misty and the voice was husky that said, Dear, dear girl. And all this time I have been miser- able and thought you did not care. We will never misunderstood each other again."-St. Louis Globe Demo- crat.

It had been a very foolish quarrel = lovers quarrels usually are-but Dick would not admit it so far as his part was concerned. Of course, Eloise had been foolish in thinking he would tol- crate any such treatment She was f1eartless and did not care, and he had been well within his rights in leaving as he had.
 But whether he had been right or foolish, he was very lonely now. Cattle ranching, has it's charms, but they are not sufficient to soothe the heart that longs for a certain girl even if the head related to the heart does not admit the longing.
 Today his mind had drifted back to her more than ever before. Perhaps this was because it was his birthday Five years ago today he had spent hours with her, talking over their plans, listening to her sing-how she could singl Had there ever been such another voice as hers? He had never heard one and he had listened to many famous singers. Perhaps it was because she had been singing to him.
 That evening she had sung on and on as if 1oath to stop; and he had listened entranced, wishing he might so listen forever. Had they had to come? Then she had sung For gotten-' That had been their favorite, but this time it had seemed too sad.
 There, there,'' Dick exclaimed as
  T must quit thinking of those days. They are better forgotten, Frorgottenn How that song does stay with one!'
 He pulled himself together with jerk and pushed his horse into a gall lop that banished all unhappy thoughts for the time.
 That evening the lonely thoughts came trooping back near the ranch. such another as that night had been. A great loneliness filled him and he vainly tried not to think of Eloise- of Eloise and her singing.
 Yes, she could sing, he admitted, grudgingly, but she was cold and cruel. She did not care-so why should 2? I ought to have more pride, and I have." he snapped, as though that settled it.
 She has forgotten me long ago." he added, bitterly.
 Then. through the stiffness. came from the house few chords that struck him like a bio He knew them so we'll Then came a voice;
 "Eloisei" he cried, leaping to hls feet.
 Forgotten you? Well, if forgetting be longing with all your heart"
 The words were ringing clear in such voice as has seldom been heard on land or sea
 Dick sank to the ground. His less refused to bear him. That song was for him-sung as she had sung it for him five years agoi But the voice not even in his dreaming had the memory of the voice been like this. There was now a fitness of womanly tone. a wonderful heart-throbbing in it's pulsing. until it seemed as If a trembling heart. instead of the breath had given it vibration.
 Dicks heart. also. was pulsing wild ly as the song died away and life flooded back into him. He sprang up and raced to the house. What or whom he expected to find there lie scarcely knew What he did find was the ranch family and most of the boys

CRAFTY KING NICHOLAS.

From recent developments it is i'm possible to tell what Montenegro will Do next. From snapping his fingers at the powers and defying Austria, King Nicholas has proved himself to be master Of the situation, but the latest coup which indicates him in league with Essad Bey and which brought about the surrender of Scu- tari only to be followed by the latter declaring himself king of Albania, showed him to be a crafty monarch to whom due credit well sym pathy must be given. The powers have found that their influence in the Bal kan trouble has been small. Monte negro is not in a position to give very serious resistance to any of the larger countries but it is not unlikely that the entire trouble will be adjusted through diplomacy.
 The Black Noun taineers have dem onstrated that they are entitled to rec ognition in the distribution of the land of Turkey. King Nicholas has won the honor Of capturing Scutari which gives him something with which to back his argument for d slice of ad- ditional territory, To release it for a compensation carries no dishonor and this should be easily arranged. if attempted on fair terms, without bloodshed. With the little monarchy. Servia has also put up a plucky fight and if justice exists in the influential powers they cannot be denied recogni- tion in the settlement of the trouble which should end the Balkan war; and 1t is the powers and not Austria which should bring about the adjustment.

EVERY DAY REFLECTIONS
Self Sacrifice.


 There are a few things more dts agreeable than virtue carried to ex- cess.
 Sef-sacrifice is certainly noble. The greatest souls have shone with it. But when a little soul splashes It about continually it is wearying.
 l know woman who makes herself a nuisance by her unceasfng and off cious self -effacement.
 She is good If such a thing be possible, she is too good.
 When you come to see her and sit down in one chair she insists that you sit in another.
 She cannot drink a glass of water without insisting that somebody else drink first.
 She fusses to get the lowest seat at a feast.
 To be last and least she makes more din and confusion than a selfish boy creates to be first and foremost
 She expostulates and stews in order

AMERICAN MANUFACTURES.

1 American manufactures are now 1 finding markets in every country and | colony of the world. More than one hundred countries colonies and de- pendencies are included in the list of world communities to which the pro- ducts of the United States are dis tributed, and manufactures go to prac ticaliy all of them. Take as an ex-
 ample the automobile. a comparatively
 recent factorNn commerce. The num-
 Der of countries and colonies to which
 automobiles were exported from the United States last year is over seven
 ty. American blows are turning the
 soil in no less than eighty different countries and they amounted to over seven million dollars in value, while mowers and reapers amounting to seventeen million went to the same countries. Preparations for table food include nearly ninety countries of des- tination while American candles sup ply light to scores of countries.
 American railway cars go abroad to the value of about eight million while the wheelbarrow push cart and hand truck find an extensive demand abroad Ceiuloid and manufactures thereof to the amount of two million go to fifty different countries while American cotton cloths went last year to about seventy countries and col onies It is apparent therefore that much importance must be attached to the manufactures of this country in our export trade and that in every line there is a demand for American goods in other countries which is showing a steady increase each year and which is testimonial to the worth and superiority of American product.

cHINA,s BIG LOAN.

Regardless of the action of this country concerning participation in the loan of s125.000. GOO to China the five powers have evidenced a willing ness to assume the task of furnishing the money and securing such protec tion as was demanded, and China seems to be satisfied with that method of obtaining the much needed money.
 Concerning the probability of the five power loan, which appears to have been consummated, The New York Commercial points out that the cur ious fact is that an American syn dicate had proposed to take the re- sponsibility of the whole loan of $125. 900, ,000. This group, pending the halt in the earlier negotiations which Pres ident Wilson had checked, approached him with an appeal for the same sort of guarantee of government backing from this country which he had re- fused in the other case. This would appear to indicate that the new par ties suspected the objection to the in ternational project to have been it's cooperative character, and that the president would authorize a sole as sumption, which he had condemned on the partnership basis. President Wilson could not have been much fiat tered by this ingenious surmise-"
 China, if the loan has been placed with the five powers apparently had as much confidence in the arrangement when the six powers were concerned as she did in the expression of inter est or friendliness by this country in withdrawing therefrom. The effort to place the loan by American interests could hardly have expected this gov ernment's sanction after it had been withdrawn from the previous plan of participation.
