this way now. 1t wouldn't have been
just a kiss such as boys and girls have
always had in the moonlight. 1t meant
the symbolic Remuneration Of the debt
that Dan owed Cranston-a debt that
in his mind might possibly 90 unpaid,
which no weight Of circumstance could
make him renounce.
His longing for her lips pulled at
the roots Of him. But by the laws of
his being he couldn't claim them until
the debt incurred on the hillside,
months ago, had been paid to take
them now meant to dull the fine edge
of his resolve TO carry the issue
through to the end, to dim the star
that led him, to weaken him, by bend
ing now, for the test to come. He
didn't know why. 1t had its fount In
the deep wells of the spirit. Common
sense can't reveal how the holy man
keeps strong the spirit by denying the
flesh. 1t goes too deep for that. Dan
kept to his conservation.
He did, however, kiss her hands,
and he kissed the tears out of her
eyes. Then he turned into the dark
ness and broke through the ring OF
the wolves.

Charles e. L. Winoate

~ a FIERY, what girl WeS that
in my mothers room just
4 - now2"
ooh, she? Little Dorritf She's
nothing; she's a within Others"
And thus Mrs. Flintwlnch, wife of
the crafty, crablike walking footman
of the household, introduced to Arthur
Clennam the name of the poor little
seamstress of the paralytlc Mrs. Glen
nam.
He had noted her pale, transparent
face quick In expression though not
beautiful In feature, except for its
soft hazel eyes. A delicately bent
head, a tiny form, a shabby dress-it
must needs have been very shabby to
look at all so, being so neat-were Lit
tie Dorrit as she sat at work.
A strange presentiment came into
Arthurs mind that, in some way, this
gentle maiden was connected with
bis history.
For 20 years young Clennam had
lived in China with his father, only to
return now, puzzled over mysterious
watch which that father, In the very
last moments of his life, had given
to his sou, murmuring family and in
distinctly at the time: "YOur mother"
Naturally Arthur had assumed that
It was intended for Mrs. Clennam,
whom he and the world supposed to
be his mother.
Inside the watch casing was an old
silk paper with the initials D N F
worked into II In beads. 1t was a mes
sage-but the young man could not
fathom ii and the old woman would
not enlighten him. Was Little Dorrit,
to whom the stony Mrs. Clennam paid
such strange, unusual kindness, con-
nected sith the mystery?
They grew to see more Of each 9th.
er-the girl and the young man-and
Arthur learned that the generous lit
tie Amy Dorrit was supporting not
only her poor old father, who had
been condemned to a debtors prison
but also her pretty, frivolous sister
Fanny, and her wild, lazy brother, Tip
Under the then existing English laws
they were all allowed to live with
their father in that dreary prison.
Little wonder that Clennam often
spoke kindly to her and that he helped
the family. But love had not yet
come to him-though it had to Little
Dorrit. He heard the thrill in heI
voice, he saw the quickenlng bosom
and yet the remotest suspicion Of the
truth never dawned upon his mind.
It must be added here that Little
Dorrit had innocently won the love
of another man, the sentimental sor
of the prison turnkey, small Of stat
ure, with rather weak legs and very
weak eyes, gentle but great Of soul
poetical, faithful. If one were tC
doubt his devotion he need only read
the inscription for his own tombstone
which the romantic youth had com
posed when Little Dor-it said mo" t.
him. 1t ran thus:

CHAPTER III.

Dan Failing was never more thank
full for his unerrlng sense of direction.
He struck off at forty-flve-degree
angle between their late course and
direct road to the river, and he kept
1t as II by surveyors line. All the
old devices Of the wilderness-the
ridge on ridge that looked just alike
inclines that to the casual eye looked
like downward slopes, streams that
vanished beneath the snow, and the
snow-mist blowing across the face of
the landmarks-could not avail
against him.
A half dozen of the wolves followed
him at first. But perhaps their fierce
eyes marked his long stride and his
powerful body, and decided that their
better chance was with the helpless
man and the girl beside the Pickering
fire. They turned back, one by one.
Dan kept straight on and in two hours

But, at last, the tables turned for
our little heroine. A queer, kind
hearted rent collector, Pancks-a
painting little steam-tug Of man, with
his putting and his pauses-had
learned to value the friendship of the
motherless girl, and so. having acct.
dentally discovered that her father
was the probable heir to an enormous
estate, had run down the clues until
finally the great wealth was turned
over to old Mr.. Dorrit.
Then away from the dreary prison
hurried the entire family.
Yet riches brought slight pleasure
to Little Dorrit. The much-changed
father became ashGmed Of his debtor

sister and the gambling brother, put

BELIEVES IN SAVING PENNIES
not Be Justly Accused of Un-
due WastefuIness.

Russell Sage made a great record.
but there's another rich man who
is hot on his trail.
This man is a New York invest
ment banker who is largely interested
in a southern railroad. Once a year
he makes a trip Of inspection over
the property In a private car. Usual
ly he takes with him two big ~valises,
into which his extra clothing is packed.
Arriving at the end OF the road he
sends his valet to a barber shop. which
he has patrOnized once q year for
years. to arrange for a bath. A por-
ter carries the two valises there and
back. For this he receives a tip Of
five cents. The banker pays Is cents
for his bath. After bathing he returns
TO the private car. He sleeps In It IN
the railroad yard rather than pay the
fancy price the hotel charges.
The financial mans valet never
washes out his employers shaving
cup. The banker does not believe In
wusting soap. - Philadelphia Public

Pedigree Alone Is Not Sufficient to
Make a Satisfactory Animal
Management Counts.

Two men attended q sale Of pure
breds and n Of them bought the top
gilt for more than $500. She was
sold a year later for a little more
than half of that amount. The 9TH
er paid 500 for a gilt for which he
refused $500 a year later. The first
gilt was worth the original price, but
lack Of development made the second
price a fair m The second gilt sold
high enough, in the judgment Of the
sale crowd; proper development dur.
Ing the second year Of her life more
than trebled her value. ANY advan-
tage in pedigree was In favor of the
first gilt. One scored a loss and dis
appointment, the other a profit and
enthusiasm. The difference repre-
scented the difference in feed.
There are many other instances that
might be cited to show that pedigree
alone is not sufficient to make a good
hog. II also takes feed, and the kind
Of feed may make the difference be-
tween profit and loss. One would not
expect to feed hogs at a profit on an
exclusive diet Of fishmeal costing 500
per ton, or of corr at $50, nor in a
dry lot with just enough Of either or
both to maintain life without gain,
nor on pasture alone, which cOnsti-
tutes simply a maintenance ration. 1t
is the combination Of these factors
excepting the dry lOt-which makes
for profit. We do not advocate the use
OF the dry lot for anything. 1t is q
dusty or muddy abOminatiOn, and an
incubator Of disease germs. 1t is even
worse than q pine woods or broOms-
edge pasture" Green fields and live
stock and nicely painted, convenient
buildings have an affinity for each
other.

Portable and eliminate a large per
cent of Illnesses. Such a treatment
costs nothing to try, but a little pcrse-
verance and stick-tO-it-iveness.
We know that there are four things
that the food which we eat Is to 90
for us: To generate heat, to keep the
body warm TO rebuild and repair It's
waste TISSUES, to store up reserve en-
ergy for illness or emergency work,
and to produce energy to enable us
to walk and do all kinds of physical
end mental work. Hard, mental labor
or hard physical labor uses up more
food than the inactive body, but even
that needs food to keep it in working
order.
a calOrie is a measure of heat or
energy which a certain amOunt or
food yields when burned in the body.
Just as so much gas per cubic foot
produces a certain heat or light, so
too Il definite amount Of food gives
off so much heat and energy measured
in calorieS when we burn it in our
bodies. An active adult needs from
three thousand to three thousand
seven hundred calories per day to
cover all the body needs. Just accept
this as we do that ii takes two cup
fuls of many things to make a
pound. Science helps us in finding
the calorie value of various kinds OF
food by giving us the hundred calorie
portions Of common dishes. For ex-
ample n small baked apple without
sugar yields one hundred calorieS,
One-half a medium-sized grape fruit
yields the same. also q large banana.
three prunes with a Tablespoonful OF
the juice; two slices. O~ne-fourth inch

tablespoonful of butter, one cupful or
