When Mrs Million goes lo ri !<• she t r av -els forth in state,

Her horses, ful l of lire and pride, go pranc ing f rom the gate ;

Hut all the beauties of the day she vlewu with languid ere.

Her flesh In weakness waste away, her voice is but a sigh. For Mrs Million is in an advanced

singe of ciitnrrli. and all the luxuries that weal th can buy fail to give her cuinfort . She envies her rosy waiting-maid, and would give all her riches for lliut young woman's pure breath and blooming health. Now if some t rue and disinterested friend would advise Mrs Million of the wonderful meri ts of Dr Sage's Catarrh Remedy, she would learn that her case is not past help, |500 reward is olfered bv the mamifact-tirers for a case of ca ta i rh in the head which they cannot cure .

were captured by Ihe police and are held for trial, charged w ith conspiracy.

Since then the ixihce have boon busy a n d have now gut HIKUU thir ty under arrest, including the man who bought

The National TrUmne makes the fol-

lowing causl ic commen t s on GOT, Win-ans' veto of t h e |80,000 appropriation

for the U. A . R. National encampment at Detroit in Augus t :

••The appropria l ion was, contrary to his assertion, for a great public purpose. There can be no grea ter public purjiose than fostering a patriotic spiri t in the people, and no th ing can do more in this direction t h a n properly honor ing the survivoraof the men who sacridioti thcmielves to save the nation. Nor can it lie true, as he asserts, tha t any pro|>o-sition to m a k e such an appropriat ion. If Mibmitled t o the people, would be de feated by a vote of 20 to one. Every (•tale which has beep honoro'! by hold mg a nat ional encampment within its borders has gladly made a similar ap-propnat ion, and th is has been univer-sally approved.

The people of Michigan are certainly no less patriotic than those of her sister na tes , where the great encampment has already lieen held. They were certainly not dur ing t h e war, when one in every eight of the ent i re population of the state went t o the f ron t , and no better men ever shouldered a musket than I hose who came f rom Michigan. They left their dead on the front line of every battle fought for t h e Union.

'•The talk about taxation is cheap demagogy. The population of Mich-igan, according to the last census, was 3,089,792. An appropriation of f-30,000 meant a contr ibut inn per capi ta of 1} cents. For a n average family ol Ave it would Is* 74 cents . Can the governor of Michigan make the country believe that liis enl ightened, progressive and patriotic people would object to sucii an insignificant appropriation ?

" T h e g o v e r n o r s political Uistoiy shows the an imus of the velo. It was certainly to be expected that a man with such a history would veto any bill for the benefit of men who were fighting at the f ront while be was skulking in the Rooky mounta ins to avoid the draf t . "

The street car s t r ike in Grand l iapids

shows to the ih ink iog people a grave danger tha t is threatening our count ry . By re ler ing directly to Ihe Grand Rapids strike we br ing It closer home, but by reference lo the daily j aperc you can

see thai this is a ma t t e r of nat ional im-uortance and the country a t large is having the same experience and s a m e

trouble. Tuesday morning's papers tell ol 1,0'JO men on a s t r ike in Chicago, and ail over the coun t ry the same story is lold, and in a few short days, if they do uot gaiu their ends the men who go out , pea- able, l aw abiding citizens, become rioteis and s tep a t no deed, be i t ever so

un jus t , lo enforce their demands . And it is these ac ts of violence tha t present so serious a pbaze . Do these things not ;)oinl s t iongly towards anarchy? Can we alford to tolerate such a s ta te of a f -fairs? Are they not in direct contradict-ion to the f u n d a m e n t a l principles of ou r g'.ireriihient as enuncia ted in t h e declar-ation of independence, among w h i c h are " l i fe , liberty and the pursui t of hap-piness.?" Do they n o t b y t h e i r a r l m n t r y proceeding! deprive others of their n a t -

ural r ighu? T h a t they have a perfect right to q u i t work and p e n u a d e their comrades to qui t if they In any way feel agrieved no one would gainsay, bu t t h a t they have a r ight lo tell you tha t you must not t a k e t h e j o b tha t they have voluntarily given up, or tha t they have any claim on their fo rmer employers o r a re juktified, in a n y manner , in the ac ts of violence and vandalism we do d e n y ,

and when they stoop to them they for-feit the sym| i a thy and respect of all law abiding cit izens. The str ikers in nearly all cases h a v e grievances ahd sore ones, and t h e proper way of ad ju s t i ng them i» a c o n u n d r u m that has been bother ing Ihe brains of ourdeej iest th inkers for a long t ime a n d its solution seems l o b e as

far away as when it was first t hough t about . Nat ional ism is ga in ing h u of

THEODORE HOCLUEB,

Marshal.

March had neon Mrs. Wuyt In oburoh t h a t forenoon, and boon struck anew wi th her dolloato lovoliness. Could she, with tha t Madonna faco, b o a s tern task-tulstress? With thn rlso of dlffloultlos, his desire to paint the picture Inoroasod. T h a t this unfor tunate chi ld, with the artlst-<oul shining piteous through her big eyes, should BOO the fair oreatlon grow under his hand had becomo a mat-ter of moment. As poor Ilester 'a effort to express aoquleseenco or dissent died In a hysterical gurgle, and a shamed at-t e m p t lo hide her hut faco with her hands , the tondor-hearted fellow arose to tako leave.

" I won't urge my pe t ldon unti l you have bad t ime to th ink I tover. Hut I don ' t withdraw It. May 1 br ing my sis ter over to see you both? She Is fond of pictures, too, and dabbles In water-colors on her own account. Ex-cuse mo—and Thor—for our uninten-t ional ly unceremonious Introduction to your notice, and thank you for a del ight-fu l half-hour, flood a f te rnoonl"

H e t t y looked a f t e r him, as his elastic s t r ide measured oil the orcbard-sloptr— a contradiction of s t rango mortlflcatlon and s t rango del ight warring within hor. I t was as If a young sun-god had paused In t h e entrance of a gruesome cave, and talked familiarly with the prlsor.cis ehalnod to the walls. With all her res-o lu te p'.irr'OlD io oppose the Intimacy which she foresaw niust ar ise from the proposed scheme of picture-making, she could not ignore t h e s t ra in ing of her sp i r i t upon hor bonds.

"Chi" walled Hester, lowering hor bands . " I d idn ' t mean to bo so foollsbl I will bo bravo and sensible, but you know, Hetty, I have never had any t h ing l ike t h i s offered to me before. I t Is l i ke dying with th i r s t with water be-fore one's eyes, to g ive It up. And when ho said: 'Illoasom-tlmo Is short , ' i t rushed over mo tha t I never had any —I can never have any. I am just a wUhenyl, useless, ugly bud t h a t will n e v e r bo a flower."

An agony of sobs followed. "My precious onel" Het ty 's tears

flowed with hers. "Do 1 ever forgot your sorrows? Are you l is tening, dear? If possible you shall have th is ono poor l i t t l e pleasure. You mus t t rus t your mother 's love, and mine, to deny you no th ing wo can r.afely give. If v e m u s t refuse It Is n n l j bear ing a l i t t l e more

T h e going-out of t h e May day was calm as with remembered happiness, b u t the chill that l u rk s In t h e Impoi^ feetly-tempered a i r of t h e new-born season, await ing the dopar turo of the sun. was so pronounced by seven o'cjock t h a t D e f y called upon Homer to build a Are In tho altt lng-room, whore she and Hes te r were s i t t ing. T h o chi ldren wore sent to bed a t e igh t o'clock. Mrs. W a y t was lying down In hor chamber with one of her f r equen t headaches, ra l ly ing her forces aga ins t her husband's r e tu rn from the long walk ho found necessary " to work off tho cumula t ive electricity unexpended by tho day's services."

" I belong to tho per ipatet ic school of philosophy," ho said to a parishioner whom he met two miles from home.

" H e was forging ahead l ike a t ra ined prl ie-f lghtor," reported tho admir ing pewholder to a fr iend. " N o t h i n g of the sent imenta l weakling about him!"

March a n d ' May Gilchris t , pausing npon tho parsonago porch, a t sound of a voice s inging softly and clearly within, saw, p m a naif-drawn sash cur ta in , Het ty rocking back and forth In tho fire-l ight , with Hester In her arms. T h o cripple 's head was thrown back sl ightly, br inging Into relief the smaH, fine-featured face and lustroua eyea. Her weal th of hair waved and gl i t tered with t h e mclion of tho chair l ike spun geld. I t might have been a young mother crooning to her baby In a sort of chant , t h e words of which were dis t inct ly audible to hmtlier and sister , the near-es t window being lowered a few Inches f rom tho top. Hester loved heat and l i g h t as well as a sa lamander , but could no t breathe freely In a closed room. To-n i g h t was ono of he r "bad Umes," and no th ing but Hetty 's s ing ing could win he r a moderate degree of ease.

"Blow wind.."' .ang Hetty. "And waft through all the rooms

Mardi moved forward hastUy to r ing t h o belL B e fe l t l i ke an eavesdropping spy upon the unconscious gir ls . With-ou t any knowledge of tho Isolation and mutual dependence of tho two, the visit-ors perceived pathos In t h e scene—In t h e c l inging helplessness of one and tha brooding tendoroeas expressed In t h e close c lasp and bent bead of t h e other.

T h e t i ng ing ceased Ins tant ly a t t b e sound of the gong. " B y George! wha t an alarinl* muttered March, dltcomllted by the clang succeeding h is touch. " A n d I gave It such a genteel pulll"

His a t t i tude was apologetic s t i l l , when Mr. Wayt 's wife 's s i s te r opened the door.

" I seem fated to bo heralded nolsllyP' b e aaid, regretful ly . " I had as l i t t le Idea of the tone of your door-bell as you h a d of tbe power of Thor ' s lung*. Miss Ail ing, let me Introduce my slsterl She gave me no peace unt i l I brought he r to see you."

May extended her hand with unmis-takab le IntcntloD of good fellowship.

" I scolded him for s tea l ing a march npon me this af ternoon while 1. l ike a du t i fu l Christian, was In church," she said. Her smile was her brother's, her b l i the , refined tones hor own. " l iu t I mean to Improve my advantages tho more dil igently on t h a t account-"

Tho genial persiflage had bridged over t h e always-awkwaid t rans i t from front-door to drawing-room when the host is t h o conductor. I t was t h e more embar-rass ing In th is case because tlie two meager ly furnished parlors weiy un-Ughted except as s g l immer from t h e bal l -gas added to tho sense of space a n d emptiness .

"Allow mo!" March wok from Het ty 's flagora the inatch she had l ighted, and reached up to tho chandel ier . The whi te i l lumination flashed upon a pleas-i n g study of an up-lookisg mas ly face, iriUj honest, hazel eyes, drooping mus-tache and teeth t h a t gleamed In the

smile s t t end lng tho quest ion: " I hope your fright?"

" T h a n k youl 1 th ink not . She is r a t h e r nervous than timid, and not ysually afraid of dogs."

" I hope wo can see her to-night?" May took up tbe word "My brother says she Is such a da in ty , br ight l i t t l e c rea tu re tha t I am ImpaUont W ma«* h e r . "

Bet ty ' s eyea glowed with g ra t i toda and surprise. No o the r visitor bad eve r m i n e d t b e afflicted daughte r of t h e >onaa U this tone. T b e t l t q k i S 9 t

d ia l praise kept back no Implicat ion o. p i ty ing patronage. Mr. Wayt ' s wife 's Sister bad knocked about t h e world of ohurohos and par ishes lung enongh to know tha t the per fec t brooding which Ignores deformity wi thout over looking t b e deformed Is the rares t of social g i f t s . In any o the r clscumstancea, tho would have refused s teadfas t ly to sub-jec t Ooater to tbe scrut iny of a s t ranger . As It was, t h e hosltated visibly.

"She It seldom able to reoolve com-pany In the evening. But I will see bow she Is fooling to-night."

She had remarkab le solf-possosslon. as March hod noted olready. She got herself out of tho room without mum-b l e or h a l t She walked well, and with a single eye to her des t ina t ion with no diffident conjec ture t as to how tho moved or looked. March had keen por-cept iont and crit ical notions upon auch points.

"What an Interest ing-looking g i r t , " observed May, in an undortono.

And March, as caut iously—"I hope she will let as see the l i t t le one! She Is t h e Jolllost gr ig you can conoelvo of . " Both tried not to look about them while wait ing for t h e lioelcus' re turn. The place WM forlornly clean, and t h e new carpets gavo for th tho ungoodly smel l of oily wool noth ing but t imo and use can dissipate. P la in t ive efforta to abol-ish t t lffness wore ev ident In chairs grouped In conversational a t t i t udes near tho summer-fronted flrc-place, and a ta-b le pulled well away from the wall, with books and photographs lying about on i t . March could fancy l lo t ty doing those things, then s tanding dlsbeartonod. In tho waste of Moquotto, under the con-sciousness tha t thoro was not one-fifth enough fu rn i tu re for tho vast rooms. A t this point, bo spoke again, subduod-ly:

" W h a t possessed the church to build these desolate ba rns and call them fam-ily parlors?"

May was a par ish worker, and looked he r surprise.

"A j^rsonage must have plenty of parlor room for church soc iab les"

"Then those who use them ought to furnish them. Or. tayl It wouldn' t be amiss to koop them up aa show-placet a re a b r o a d - b y charging a t h l l l i ng ad-mission foe."

Hetty 's roturn saved him from de-served rebuke.

"My niece will bo very happy to see you," tho reported, ra ther formally, her eyas darkl ing Inlo vague trouble or doobt as she said I t On the way across t h e hall t h e added hurr iedly to May: " W e never ovorpersuade her to meet strangers- In this case there was no need."

May's gloved hand sought hers with a swift . Involuntary gesture. I t waa the merest touch tha t emphasized the low '•Thank youl" bu t both s truck s t ra ight homo to Hotty'a heart* T h f March tact waa Inimitable .

Heater lay upon a lounge, propped into a s i t t ing posture with pl l lowa Her hair and draplngs were cunningly dla-posod. A casual eye would not have penetrated tho secret of the withered l imbs and curved spine. A rod spot l ike a rose-leaf rested upon each cheek; hor eyea shone and hqr s i l en t smile re-vealed small, perfect tee th l ike a two-year-old baby ' s She was so winsomp tha t May stooped impulsively to klsa hor as sho would a pret ty child

"I came to tell you how angry wo al l are—my father , motbor and I—with my brother and h is dog for scaring you to-day!" she said, seat ing hursolf on an ot-toman by tbe lounge, and retaining hold of tho woo hand until It ceased to twitch and burn In hers " I did think Thor knew bottert Ills tail commit ted innumerable apologies to mn when I told him I hoped to see you th is even-ing."

March and Hetty, cha t t ing together near the crackl ing wood lire, caughU presently, sentonces relat ive to colors snd pencils and portfolloa, and slaelc •mod their ta lk to listen. May had elicited tho confession tha t Hosier's brush was a solace and tbe only pastime she bad "exoopt reading and Het ty 's music."

" U u t It's on ly t rying with me," ssld •ho tuneless voice. " I have bad no teacher except Het ty ."

"My dear Hester l" cried t h e person named, '^fie candid, and say 'worse than nonaP "

Be t t e r colored vividly a t tb}a s* |-dence tha t he r oonfidinoos to her now friend wereaharod by others , hu t rallied gal lant ly to aupport her aaaertlon-

"She doesn ' t th ink t b e baa any ta len t for drawing, but t h e took lessons tor three months t h a t she migh t teaob me bow to shade and manage perspective, and use water-colors. She and I amuse ourselves with car icatures and al l tha t , and 1 make drawings—very poor ones— to Il lustrate poemt sod stor'.oa, while sho reads to me, and I do a l i t t le—yon can ' t Imagine Ass* l i t t l e and bow badlyl —la color.

I can s o t sit up long enough to under take any th ing more impor tant if I bad tbe akllL And 1 shouldn ' t da re venture to oopy any t h ing really beautiful—such as apple-blossoms," with a short-lived sml |e at March t b a t | e f t a p la i t between he r eyes.

In tercept ing Hetty'# apprehenslyp f iance , he smiled Iq re turn , bu t fqrbore to Introduce tho potltlon loft with tboiR tha t af ternoon May had been s t r ingent on this point.

"Don ' t a l lude to It th is o v e n l n g r s b o enjoined upon him. " N o t h i n g is In worse taste than to use a first call M a lever for selfish ends. I ' l l run |n to-morrow morning, itnd try iny powers qf persuasion. Meantime, ge t yoijroanvM and palette ready."

Bet ty 's sp i r i t s rose when she per-eelved t b s t tho exci t ing topic was avoid-ed. T h e four were Iq the swlqg Qf merry c o n v o ^ when the clock itraelf nine, and, as If be had walled for tbe slgnsl, Mr. Wayt walked In. March, who ta t by Hetty, aaw ber stiffen a j l over, and he r eyrs sink to the (?oof. Hester began to cough Irrepresalbly—» bard, dry back, to qu ie t which Het ty went to get a glass of water. T h e pallor of the pastor 's face had a bi l ious tinge; h is eyet were sunken, b i t whole sp-pearanee haggard and wild Yet h is greet ing to t b e guests was effusive, h is flow of language unabated.

After it package is paid for In advance, or at tho point of shipment , we m a r k It 'paid" on the side of the ad-dress- When the billing clerk ge ls t h a t package , t h e chances are jus t cvon t h a t ho Is presented with the side which is not marked paid, anil he bills 'collect. ' Never address both s ide ' -of the pack* age. If by tiny means your p a e k a f c ge ts open, the bill accompanying it will tell tho uxpresMtiuu where it goes."

• " N o , alree," excla imed my f r iend " B u c k , " who Is a t r ave l ing sa lesman for a l a rge Broadway Impor t ing honse, says a w r i t e r In t h e New York Herald, ••yon don ' t o f ten catch us d r n m m e r s asleep. We ' re wide-awake to t h e t r icks of moat all t rades, I can tell yon.

"Tl ie lost time a sha rpe r tried to down me was a t Cleveland, 0 . , a few w e e k s ago. l ie t r ied t o work the •s t r ipper ' racket on mo. I was seated In my room early one evening, when a l i t t le te r r ie r dog ran \n ' hrough tho open door and began Tnlf l lng about . P re t ty soon n well-dressed young fel-low appeared a t the door, and, apolo-gizing fo r tho intrusion, asked If I had aeon a s t ray dog a n y w h e r e around.

•* 'Ah! there yon ato," said be, eapy-Ing the canine, ' a lways r u n n i n g away f rom me inlo o ther people 's rooms, ' he explained. As migh t be expected, one word led to another , alid very soon we were engaged in a genera l conversation. T h e t a l k dr i f ted to ca rds and then the a t r a n g e r produced a pack . He had Just l ea rned a new tr ick which he would show me.

Now take a card and look a t it, ' said he. I did us directed, selecting the ace of clubs. 'Now p a t it back, ' h s

.id, handing :ae the puck. He then reques ted me to shuffle t h e cards well, wh ich 1 d id He then took the pack.

" 'The re is your card , ' he said a t onoe, producing the ace of clnbs. 'Very good,' said I, 'bu t ! don ' t t h ink yon could do It uguin. ' 1 then called h is a t ten t ion to a pielnre in tho room while I hurr iedly examined t h e pack. •No,' said I, ' I don't th ink you could do It aga in ; not for t w e n t y dollars . '

" I ' l l sec you. ' nald he. producing the money. 'All right,' aaid 1, and the be t w a s made. I then selected a card—the aoe of spades. He handed me t h e pack, r eques t ing me t o replace the card and ahufl je them us much ua I pleased.

"Now, I can handle tlie pasteboards mysel f ; while 1 was shuffling I Just fixed the cards on t h e sMnrpcr so t h a t he c o u l d n t tell one card f rom another. 'There , ' said I, hand ing him the p 'ok , 'where ' s my card?'

" H e look the pack wi th a smile of confidence and liegan t o run h is fingeri over the edges. Then he began to look a trifi'.' nervous. 'Come,' said L 'pro-duce t ' 1 card or I t a k e you r money. '

" W t i l , sir, a f t e r he had fuiflbled over tho pack for a few minutes I Just pock-eted his twen ty dollars . 'Now, here , ' 1 said to him, •you've been t ry ing to play •strippers 'on me., haven ' t you?"

" H e never said a word fo r about t w o minutes. He t hen rose to leave t h e room. 'Say, ' said ho as he was abou t to leave, •you're a New York d r u m m e r for another twen ty . ' •I'm not m a k i n g any more beta, ' said I . '1 knew It, ' he remarked as he l e f t the room.

" 'Strippers?' Why, t ha t ' s a pack of oards made sl ightly na r rower on one end than the other. An almost imper-cept ib le difference, y e t enough to be distinguished by the touch. When yon select a curd the sha rpe r hands you the pack so tha t you replace 11 upside down, t h e broad end iiinong t h e narrow ones —sec? He can t hen ' snake ' It out with ' out any trouble. I t 's a neat trick and ha rd t o detect un less you have been In-i t iated.

"Of course 1 knew w h a t be was o p t o when he handed me t h e puck. I put the card In as he wanted it, and then while 1 waa shuffl ing I qu ie t ly turned It a round so tha t t h e e n d s were all alike.

"Did It cast me a n y t h i n g to learn t h a t t r i ck? Well—but I 'm not giving my-self away. I got t w e n t y dol lars out of i t back, a t any r a t e . "
