says There was more popular spot on the grounds than the Waiting Room Its conveniences were much appreciated and if Directors of other Fairs heard how warmly the ladies approve it this addition would

when only thirty days remained VW French and business made a pretext to be the last out f and the candle The young merchant went to his board- and to his had to do was watt The wind rose and the rain bad no pity If her capital or interest heavily and was not forthcoming on the day and thought that none of date Invoked the aid of the would be on the street and accepted no excuses She had Between midnight and oclock flames would start When thealarrni- Thrift and industry have been the guiding stars of Miss Jellys life During a sojourn in the Adirondack with an invalid niece she made ill- of her time and has only twenty four hours to regret hours during which she lost in deep into which she bad ventured to search a desired medical plant Her absence much alarmed her niece and when a searchparty at- last returned with Miss Jelly whom they had found hungry but safe the niece fell on the aunts neck O Aunt Phoebe she sobbed you frightened to death out those dreadful woods all night Frightened Miss Jelly with fine scorn I I reckoned there wouldnt bo any critters but what I could get away from if it cam- to that for I can climb with the and Id chosen my tree But it did make me mad to think of the chance I had to study out that knitting pat tern Miss Browns cousin sent her and there I without a knittingneedle or a mite yarn Bad Knee Cured by ZamBuk A FOOTBALLERS ways been woman of stingy disposi tion sure to avenge what she deemed a and when she came to know the- general opinion of the villagers she ground her teeth together and made op mind to get even The village of Fergus boasted of only three general stores That was more than was needed to supply the wants of the people There would not have been a fourth bad not one of the mer chants had a business transaction with the widow Allen and been obliged to go to law over It- She was beaten In the suit and to get even she planned to start another store Not being an educated woman afraid to try- the Idea by herself she lent a sum of money to young George French who had several years been a clerk In the store of the merchant she wished to ruin He was bourn hard and fast The widow wanted revenge but she didnt propose to lose any money over It She was near fifty years old and the new merchant not yet twentysix but she let it be known that when a marriage took place between them the firm name of George French Co might be shortened to George French There was a rush of customers to the new store To keep expenses down and make an Innovation young French employed a girl bookkeeper and an other girl as clerk As the widow Insisted on big board ing with no that they could talk business and he le under her watch she did not become Jealous for a tUue- day came however an nounced that ho must get rid of both girls and replace with men He refused to her En this point ing out the saving and other good rea sons One of the reasons that he did not give was that- lie admired the fatherless girl Jennie Warder the bookkeeper who was supporting a wid owed mother by her efforts and to whom he hud been attracted from the first day His admiration must have been patent to in a hundred ways and yet he hud spoken no word TUe new store was an experiment If It was a success he might avow himself If a failure he would have no right to ask her to share his lot The widow Allen concealed her cha grin and did not press her point The young merchant Was hustling and mak ing things gloomy for her victim At the proper time he would offer an alter native months of liberal advertising low prices and attention to business on the part of the new storekeeper As an example the value in cases of abrasions and injuries to muscles and tendons as weU as to the skin the recent experience of Mr Leslie Harriet St Winnipeg may be mentioned He says playing football I received a kick on the knee I had had previous trouble brought bankruptcy two of other with that knee and expected that bat they brought no such

counted about a dozen members of the congregation who not speak to each other tffcen they meet on street or The thought occurred to us why they know oth er there when they dont know each other here he says it Is a safe sign of corn ing rain London Sporting arid Dram atic News A Care for a certain amount of the Invest ed at the end of the first twelve months and figure as he would he could not sec bis way clear to do bo The widow was waiting for him to speak and then she laughed and hinted at matrimony When hints were turned aside said quietly At the end of the year you must pay me as agreed If not the law will put me In possession and yon will be out of employment But you not pressed for money You can give me time he protested I have worked like a slave to mute the success put In a thou sand of my own money You would not drive me Into bankruptcy If we are not married on the day your notes ure due I demand my money If you go Into bankruptcy shall buy In the stock nod put one else In your place Her declaration lost her her boarder but when he walked out of the house he knew he was rulued In He could not pay her half of what he owed her and a call at the lawyers brought him no comfort Hue had apokeu of marriage but he turned away at thought Hue had said she would ruin him and she was a woman to her word There Is way out for the merchant who finds bankruptcy In few take who excuse themselves to their own consciences The merchant went over the ground time and time again but ha always came back to one thing store was burned out be fore Jhe year was up the Insurance money would pay widow Allen and leave htm something to start anew Men recoil from this Idea firat but If the situation Is pressing a large proportion grasp the end Young French looked ground his store and saw the fa vorab trituration of things All he need do was to leave a lighted candle the litter un der the stairway when home at By midnight or ah hour later Itching j ln building would rtt In flame Pies no possibility Of being money OINTMENT MM vKhtttMaAiiM fails to cum In to days W was given people could only turn out and look on with folded arms French went to bed at the usual hour He left nothing to chance He lay there j hour after hour thinking scheming and planning- It was close upon midnight when his other self came to the rescue The two personalities debated and ar gued and fought The one self con tended and the other protested After a quarter of an hour the mer chant arose and hurriedly began to dress He was pale faced and trem bling and frightened He felt himself a criminal and branded before the world Bankruptcy might come he might be forced to moat employ ment the widow might triumph and he might lose the one he had learned to love but he would save the store The wind was blowing a gale and the rain coming In sheets when ho stepped from the door and ran through the mud and storm to the store Not even a dog was In As be ran he prayed that he might not be too shaking bauds he inserted the key In the door and pushed It open There was no smell smoke Striking a mutch he made his way to the closet The candle had blown out hours ago It had not burned half an Inch With- a new fear at his heart the man turned away and lighted a lamp and leaned on the counter to think heard the rustle of garments and light footsteps and Miss Warder came out of the darkness stood before him and said Mr French blew the candle out a long long time ago You yon found and blew It out he gasped Yes and I hove been waiting for you to come I going to burn the store for the insurance he said after a long silence Yes To pay the notes due that woman I to thirty days and save myself from bankruptcy I know But I do it I thought I could I meant to but I came here to j blow out the candle and save the store I am a ruined man but I am not a criminal except In Intent I knew would come said the girl with tears voice It Is hard to face- ruin but It Is harder to face conscience Yesterday a came to see mother He told her she was one of the heirs to a large He brought papers for her to sign and within a mouth she will have Well queried French as he wiped his brow and looked around the store Ithoughtthonght You want to give me notice and leave your place at the end of the week You will go of course but I hope you will remember I came back to save the store I Wanted the Insurance money but my conscience wouldnt be a criminal I thought that If you wanted to take in a partner But where can I find one If you wanted to take in a partner and pay up notes and bo clear of that woman mother would give mo money and He saw her to her homo through tho storm and and he did not realize that wind blew or rain fell or that he had to pick his steps Ho realized only thut he held her baud and that he had been saved from his other self His sign reads French but there la a slleut partner with and behind him aid dally adding to bis happiness nachel I saw Rachel It was one of tho most overpowering
