LOVE'S INTUITION. A Girl Who Was Able to Read Beneath the Surface. By MARY WOOD. Above tbe shrill whir of the crickets rose the hum of feminine voices. Un der the green apple boughs the ham mock convention was In full swing. Miss Maybrick called It a hornets' nest and preferred the doubtful coolness of the piazza. Rut. then, she was a col lege professor, too superior to appre ciate the joys of the younger set. Jane Carew. however, sometimes agreed with her. This afternoon she hid her face behind a book, while girl ish fancies carried her far above the swaying leaves up into the perfect blue of the July sky. How lovely na ture was this summer, how full life of new delights! Miss Maybrick's name brought her back to earth again?Miss Maybrick. the one cloud iu her sky. "Oh. yes. she approves of him," saucy Madge was saying. "She can put up with bis sunburned face, roughened hands and the general boorlsbness of a fanner. But I suppose at her age any man is acceptable. To tell the truth, I have almost reached that con dition myself iu this man forsakeu spot." And she shook her head In mock despair. "Jane agrees with her," some one added a little maliciously. "She never seems to mind sharing his attentions with her." A book went down with a crash and angry spots of scarlet glowed iu Jane's cheeks as she said defiantly: "John Staunton Is not a l?'?or. Me Is a gen tleman. Just because he scorns to talk the twaddle that men usually thiuk good enough for us -iris you vote him a Imer. Tie often makes me ashamed of liie Hille I know, and the books he lends me have opened up a new world, a world bfgtrer and better thaa all til** Hilling and shams and heartaches (bat go to make up so ciety. No wonder he likes to talk to Miss Maybrh k. She's worth the whole lot of us when it comes to knowingl the things that are worth while!" The girl stopped short with a gasp as she realized the horrified hush which had falleu on the circle. "Oh. what have I saldV" she cried and buried her face In her cushions. Rut Madge's gay voice was teuder as she stroked the brown head. "You've read us a lecture, Janie. dear," she said gently, "but I fancy we needed it a bit It's horrid to talk about one of your friends the way we talk about Staunton. and we ought to ask your pardon. As for Miss Maybrick. she's a stuck up old thing, and you're ever so much nicer than she in spite of all she knows. Just wait till Cousin Alex comes next week and see the new world that he opens to you. He is really literary and writes things for other people to read." Jane's fave was still bidden. She was battling to overcome her tears and even harder to drive out of her heart the unreasonable jealousy of the older woman that somehow had crept luto it. The time had been wheu she would have scorned her as a rival, but love had made her humble. Youth and beauty seemed of small weight to cast into the scales against years of scho lastic training and study. Cousin Alex came. He was a slim, dapper youug man. with an important mauner rather at variance with h:< size. But be had a way of retailing old jokes that made iheiu seem new and a stock of compliments suited to every age and was therefore greaily In favor among the guests at the sleepy old farmhouse. As befitting his pretensions as a journalist he rallied ou unceasingly about books and litera ture. He knew this man and that book, and, above all. be was one whose name should some day stand foremost hi the world of letters. The date was not yet set. but lie spoke of "his novel" mysteriously, even reverently, and his feminine audience was accordingly Im pressed. More or less unwillingly Jane was complelled to listen to many of these predictions, for "Cousin Alex" at once developed a fondues* for her society Perhaps certain glances that Staunton cast in his direction added /.est to the chase. Perba] s it was tin- elusive fashion In which the girl received hia advances. Certain it is that a week's time hod earned bin: the very fitting name of ?"Jane's Glindow." Yet to Jane herself each day seemed to bring more unhappiness. Staunton came as often as ever, but at sight o? Alex by her side lie left tb-? laughing uroup to chat with Miss Maybrick in Intimate aloofness. And as ttie girl saw the door to the beautiful new world closing because the hand of him who held it open was withdrawn the pain and weariness of her eld frivo lous life seemed lilmosi past bearing. Her eyes were more wistful than she knew one evening as she saw a tali, muscular figure swing up the wail; with the easy, confident stride of tin* man who was master of his fate. Staunton's face softened ::s he met :;i"in. and. though Cousin Alex flam biln was on hand, as usual, he sftlled himself <>;i Hie t?? t? step with the air of a man who bad come t<> stay. Tbe| brown eyes were downcast now. but a j ?shy blush of pleasure :-.:!'. flushed Uerj cheeks. There was always a visible air of constraint between tie two men. but Hamblin rose manfully to the occa sion. Here was a most longed for op portunity to prove to Miss Jane that' Staunton was but a boor of .t farmer.' lifter all. and no match for a man of the world like himself. If the older mm detected his half v-iled tone of patronage, he only Everyone would be benefited by taking Foley's Orine Laxative for stomach and liver trouble and habit ual constipation.

Lowman Drug Co.; A. C. Dukes. The two persons to whom a wo man's voice can be sweetest are a small baby she loves and a large wo man she hates. smiled quizzically. Indeed, his position I soon grew more unteuable than that I of his adversary. As the conversation ! ranged from books to men and back i 1 to books again Jane saw. with a thrill of pride, that Stauuton more than held his own. What is more, he held his temper, a precaution neglected by the 1 other. j At last the talk fell upon one of the recent .novels, a book of unusual strength and breadth of view. Jane Itad read it several times, for it had seemed to point her to the new life she longed to live. Staunton was silent, as though in unspoken condemnation. Thereupon Hainbiin became an enthu siastic defender and openly scoffed at his lack of appreciation. A shadow crossed the moonlit porch, j but the three did not see Miss May j brick till her voice broke in on the controversy. "You would not expect Mr. Stauntou to criticise his own book, would you?" she said calmly. Then, as her ear caught Jane's low exclamation of won der, she added in a tone of surprise: "Had you not guessed that he was an author. Miss Cnrew? I heard that yon defended him very eloquently one aft ernoon hi the orchard and said a good word for me too. For that I want to thank you." Staunton's face was turned toward the blushing girl, and in full moonlight Miss Maybrlek could read his secret. If it sounded the deathknell to some hope in her owu heart, gratitude to her companion made her lead the bewil dered Alex for a walk down the lane and a gradual restoration of Iiis self confidence. "And I have to thank you, too, Jane." Staunton said tenderly. But he took leu- down to the orchard and told her in his own way. "How did you guess that I was not the farmer I pretended to beV" willi a hint of wonder under his gladness. Jane raised a face radiant with the realization that the new world was opened forever. "Just because you are you." she said joyously. "Love is not always blind." A Story That Varies. There is a story more nr less dlf fused of a young bride on her wedding day playing the game of hide and seek and concealing herself in one of those ancient carved chests of large size. After she had got in the lid closed, and she found herself unable to raise it again, for it fastened with a spring, and she was shut in. Search was made for her in every quarter but the right one. and great perplexity and dismay were caused by her disappear ance. It was not till years after, when chance led to the opening of tbe chest, that the body of th? young bride was discovered and the mystery of her dis appearance solved. The story Is found in so many places that it may be questioned whether it is true of any one of them. Hogers tells it of a palace in Modena. The chest in which tbe poor bride was found Is shown at Brnmshill.in Hamp shire, the residence of Sir John Tope. Another similar chest with precisely the same story attached to it was long shown at Marwell Old Hall, between Winchester and Bishop's Waltham. The folk tale of Catskiu or Pean d'Ane represents the girl flying with her bridal dresses from a marriage that is repugnant to her. and as this tale is found all over Europe it may have metamorphosed itself into that of the bride who got into a chest and died there.?Coruhlll Magazine. Detecting a Thief. Some of the stories in the "Folklore of the Holy Land" seem to be at least founded on fai t. And. indeed, when we come down to quite recent times we find undoubtedly genuine stories that might have been told of the days of the ealipbs. Here Is one of Ibrahim Pasha: A goldsmith of Jaffa complained that his house had been robbed and remarked that the Egyptian occupa tion had not brought security. The pasha promised redress. The next day he came to the man's shop and in the presence of a great crowd ordered the executioner to give the door a hundred lashes. Then he stooped as if to listen. "The door tells nonsense." he cried; "an other hundred!" He Stooped again. "The same tale; the door persists that the thief is somewhere in this crowd of honest people and that be has some of the dust and cobwebs from the shop on his tarboosh." He had his eye on the crowd and saw a man hastily raise his hand to brush his fez. The man was arrested and confessed his guilt. A Chromatic Love Affair.

The Way the Trouble Between the Neighbors Was Settled. By PAUL CAREW. Widow Ja sou was the relict of Farmer Jason, and slie carried on the JV.rin after his death wiln even more wisdom than he had shown himself possessed of. She was still ou the brighter side of forty, fair to look up on and was at peace with till her neighbors until the on? to the east of her sold out and a stranger moved in. He was u mau of middle age named Cbisholm. and. being a widower, bis sister managed the house for him. If the Widow .Jason was one of those who wondered what sort of mau he was. she was the Brst to Had it out. Among her live stock that year were a dozen hogs, aud it was the fault of her hired man that there were holes in the fence through which they made their way Into the petnto field of the new neighbor. She had just fin ished her breakfast one morning when Cbisholm was announced. He had the courtesy to lift his hat and give his name, but be also had the bluntness to add: "Madam, your infernal hogs have rooted up half uu acre of potatoes for me. and if you can't manage to keep "em home I'll shoot every one of "em!"' She looked at him and saw that he was above the ordinary and felt that had she been introduced in the conven tional way she would have been pleas ed to make his acquaintance. But his rude greeting angered her. and. being a woman with a mind of her own, she at once replied: "I can pay for all the potatoes on your farm, and if you come here to threaten me you'll find a woman who doesn't scare!" "Well, you keep your hogs at home." "And you keep yourself in the same place." That was the first tilt. The fences were mended and the hogs wore in de spair when a high wind blew a gate opeu. and the drove spent the night in the same potato field. Next morning I Cbisholm drove ten of them home and j said to Widow Jason: "Madam, there are dead hogs be | longing to you in my fieid. Will you have them removed or shall I bury tbem?" "You killed them, did you?" she asked. "I did. I told you I would, aud I did." "Then I'll have the law on you." "Go ahead." She went to law. aud there was a suit, and she was Ingloriously beaten. Womanlike, she felt pretty bitter over It, but at the same time she had to give Mr. Cbisholm credit for lack of any bitterness. lie stated his ease in the mildest manner and even spoke highly of her as a neighbor. When she returnefl home after the lawsuit she said to her hired man: "Josh. If that man Cbisholm comes on my land again I want you to throw him off." "Yes'm, I'll do it," replied the sturdy Josh. It wasn't a fortnight before Cbis holm came. Me was on his way to the house when Josh headed him off aud ordered him back. He refused to go. and Josh laid hold of him to do the throwing act. but found himself a licked man in about three minutes. While he sat on the ground with a handful of grass to his bleeding nose the victor passed on to the woman, who had wituessed the fracas from the front steps. Lilting his hat. he said: ?'Madam, those hogs of yours have been nt it again?this time In my corn field?and I've had to kill another." "Have you dared to kill another of my hogs?"- she demanded as her cheeks ?amed and her eyes flashed. "1 have. Shall 1 bury him?" "Sir, you are a scoundrel!" "And you are a charming widow!" She drove to town at; once to see her lawyer. There was S10 in the case for him win or lose, and he advised her to sue. She sued and got beaten | again. The defendant referred to her j in the highest terms, but he also) proved that her fences were out of re pair. The lawyer saw $10 more in it, win or lose, and advised Josh to prose cute for assault and battery. Josh brought his swollen nose and black eye into court and was beaten by sev eral lengths. He had provoked the encounter, and, if he had got the worst of it, the law couldn't help him. It was a month liefere anything fur ther happened. The fences around the hog lot were thoroughly repaired, and for four weeks the porkers had to make the best of their sad lot Then Josh left the bars down one night, and as the widow was getting breakfast she heard the cr.T k of a rifle. Half an hour laier Mr. Cbisholm appeared to say: "Good morning, Mrs. Jason. Those wretched hogs of yours rooted up my gurdeu last night, and this morning 1 killed another of them. If you want another lawsuit I'll drive you to town in ray own buggy." "And you?you've skol another?" she gasped. "I have." "Then I'd like to -hoot you! You nre the incanest man in the state of Ohio!" ' Yes'm." he replied, with a bow. as he turned away. Widow Jason drove to town to con sult her lawyer again. There was $10 In it for him. win or lose, but this ti.r.e Mr. Cbisholm was arrested for mali cious persecution.

Silence is indeed golden to those who are paid to keep quiet. and exhibited no animus whatever, but he also proved that he was the one persecuted. The widow's Logs would not let him alone. .She was beaten again, and this time a stout pen was I built, and the hogs were shut up. The farmers had of course taken sides. Some contended that C'hisholm had ex i hibited a mean and unncighborly spirit and others that the widow had been derelict iu not mending her fences, and there were much talk and discussion. It occurred now and then that the two principals met on the highway or at the crossroads meeting house, but while Chisbolm lifted his hat and bowed as if there was nothing on his i ru'nd the widow, except for her blaz ! im. eyes, seemed carved of stone. I That pen held the hogs for a long j six weeks, but hogpens have their I weak points, and patience and porse I verance will seek them out. The hot sun warped a board and made an open ing, and the Industrious swine enlarged it until one night they all passed out and headed straight for the nest farm. They fetched up among the cabbages, pumpkins, squashes, melons and car rots, and during the long hours of darkness they ran riot. They were missed from the pen early next morn ing, aud the widow sat down on the ! doorstep aud cried. She cried because she was vexed, and she cried because she was a woman. Kvcry minute she expected to hear the crack of Chis holro'a rifle, and she fully realized that any further appeal to the law would be wasted. She was vexed at the hogs, at Josh and at C'hisholm. Her tears were still falling when the new neighbor stood before her and bowed and said: "Mrs. Jason, those blamed hogs of yours damaged me a hundred dollars' worth last night." "And bow many more have yet. killed?" she asked. "None. I've just driven 'em home.' "But why?why"? "Because I see how It is. 1 must either kill off your whole drove or build a pen myself. I shall come over tonight to talk to you about It." He appeared an hour alter supper, and It was II o'clock before he went home. Even then the "talk" was not finished. As a matter of fact it re quired a great many evenings and was only concluded one winter's ni :ht when she laid her head on bis shoulder and said: "If you are really sure that you love me. then the farm, the hogs and I are yours." Lectured by Carlyle. There are some amusing memories at Kyleaklu, In Skye, of a visit once made there by Carlyle, traveling in the train of Lady Ashburtun. The Ky leakinses felt a lively curiosity con cerning the distinguished author, and whenever he appeared in public he was surrounded by a crowd of admir ing men, women and children who had heard sensational reports concerning his "cleverness as a scholar." Carlyle seemed to like this hero worship until these admirers clustered round him while he was In the midst of his sea bath one day. Then be assailed them in language much more emphatic than elegant, which soon made them take to their heels and scamper off with ail speed out of his sight. Lady Ashbur ton had prayers with her daughter and servants morning and evening, but the sage was never present. During these periods, Neil Maclnncs, the innkeeper, used to relate, "he would lead me to the coffee room and there, laying bold of me by the coat buttonhole, he would lecture lo me for half an hour on end ou all sorts of subjects, and he would be so intent on it that he wouldn't allow uie to put In a word. Fancy." said Neil, "that 1 should be lectured to iu such a way by Tommy Carlyle!"?London Standard. Ant Hills and Flies. A recent traveler in central Africa describes an interesting use of the sol! of ant hills. It appears that it makes excellent bricks, of which houses are built. Tbe natives tread it with water Into a dougblike substance, which is shaped In rough wooden molds. It Is then dried in the" sun and afterward baked in native kilns. The same sub stance is found to make excellent ten nis courts. It Is mixed with water into a thick paste, spread on the ground and smoothed over with the hands. The same traveler tells us how the natives iu the neighborhood of Lake Nyassa esteem a species of fly as an excellent article of diet. It is known as the "kungu" and appears to be peculiar to the lake. At certain sea sons of the year these dies appear In enormous numbers and are sometimes blown in myriads over the land. If this happens near a village I he natives come out eagerly to gather .hem up. They make them into what they con sider a delicious confection .?London Standard. Standing on His Rights.

Dried eggs! Now, what do jou think of that? Not fried eggs, but dried eggs. That's the proposition that the Unit ed States navy has recently been wrestling with. it's a big question when it comes to furnishing a fleet with eggs, es pecially fresh eggs. So Uncle Sam has been experimenting in order to solve the egg proposition in some satisfactory way. So much space do the ordinary eggs lake up in the limited apart ments set aside for provisions on a man-of-war, that it was found neces sary to hit upon some plan to econ omize space. Hence, the rise of the dried egg, which has recently been tested in the Atlantic fleet with very satisfactory results. Just think of having an egg done up in a neat paper in powder form, in such way that you might store five or six specimens of hen fruit in the same space that one of the ordinary kind would require. Take out your little paper, and water and "Presto"?there's your egg! Isn't that easy, though'.' All the -pace that would have been taken up with the bulky eggs is filled with more perishable pro ducts in the way of provisions. One can easily imagine how much this means as regards the toothsomeness of the man-'o-war's fare. That the dried egg has its use has already been proved by the commissiary de partment of the navy. The main objection to the dried egg is the heavy cost of the prepara tion. To successfully reduce the liquid egg to a powdered form re quires much skill and elaborate pro cesses, nmking Hie preparation of the powdered eggs an expensive under taking. Even when it has been re duced to powdered form, the egg re tains one of its egg-like ways, which is its tendency to spoil. Tiiis makes necessary fresh supplies and adds to the expense of preparation. But Uncle Sam baa accomplished something in the way of handling this all importanl article of food by his ree. nt experiments, and it seems likely iii.it further experimentation will give better results.
