Ilis duty lay clear before him, and that duty lie would follow. But lie alone realized the cost, lie had so counted on the promised talk with Dallas Wain weight the preceding evening. On the hopes of that interview he had staked ills all. In it he was to have received the half pledged reward for ids months of toil and achievement. Yet in view of his present relations toward Wainwright he could not, of course, visit the financier's home. The doors of the house that contained the woman he loved had been barred to him. And Dallas—what must she have thought of Ids failure to call? [to be continued.] It Will Bite Long After It Has B«en Decapitated. Eels are peculiar even among fishes. A strange and mysterious race, the difficulty of killing them is not the least of their peculiarities. Very many of us have been annoyed by' the ordi nary eel that has seized our worm and j then tangled up our line in its slimy i coils. You may cut off the head of au eel—in the manner recommended by the S. P. 0. A.—aud leave its body full of squirms and wriggles, for the eel is a hateful and uncanny creature. 1 have been told that the true method is 1 first to cut off the eel’s tail and that after this the severance of the head brings all life and movement to an eud. As to tills 1 cannot say, for I only heard this recently and have not since hud to deal with a sinuous eel. A correspondent has cited au instance of a conger left apparently dead for twenty-four hours on the beach, which then bit three lingers from the hand of a small boy who came to handle it I can well believe this. 1 shall not easily forget the eerie shock which I had on a certain occasion in Wales. I had caught a large eel ou a night line set for pike. We had severed his bead and left him for some hours on the hank, leaving a good hook in his’ gullet. In the evening he was presented to a small boy. who bore him off In triumph as a supper dish. Half an hour later the boy’s mother appeared, with some concern and indignation, to relate that the head had bitten the boy severely when lie tried to remove the excellent hook And this was no conger! The ! occurrence seemed to me like the hor ror in one of Kipling's most weird sto ries of uncanny horror. Whether these posthumous wounds by eels betoken the remnants of life in their severed portions or a mere mechanical dicker of the nervous system only the biolo- I gist could say. And perhaps he would be only making a guess.—St. James’ Gazette. LOST THE CASE.

And so he did. A Simple Test to Which the Defendant Objected. An English solicitor was defending a fruit broker iu an action brought iu a London "court for the recovery of $100, the price paid for a consignment of figs which tin* plaintiff declared to lie unfit for human food The defense alleged that, although moderately dis colored by salt water, as the plaintiff knew when he bought them, the iigs were perfectly wholesome. Tlie tigs were iu court. The plaintiff, a coster, who conducted liis own case, was skillfully cross ex amined. Tlie trial was obviously going against him, and once or twice lie re torted so hotly that the judge threat ened to commit him for contempt. At length the coster grew desperate and. turning to the opposing counsel, hoarse and perspiring, lie said: "Look here guv nor, you sav them The Payment For Stuart’s Portrait of George Washington. The Columbian Historical society re cently has come into possession of the papers relating to the negotiations be tween one of the Carroll family and the government of the Ufiited States for the payment of the money due for tlie famous portrait of Washington by Gilbert Stuart This was tlie portrait which iu the war of 1812 was rescued from the burning White House by tlie intrepid Dolly Madison. Stuart paint- ed this portrait in Philadelphia in 1793, when in the height of his glory He but recently had returned fr^m London, where he had counted among liis subjects King George IV.. tlie Prince of Wales, Mrs. Siddons and many other celebrities, and he had the temerity to ask congress for $800 for liis painting of the first patriot. Tlie solous were aghast at such a price, promptly refused to pay it and intimated that any one so unpatriotic might as well go back and paint kings, for he was not suited to paint patriots But Daniel Carroll of Duddington threw himself In the breach, urged the claim of the artist and put before the congress what a figure they would cut before the eyes of the world if they failed to meet an obligation incurred Carroll offered to pay the money him self if the government gave him prom ise of remuneration. After, much quib bling a promissory note was given at 8 per cent, and it was twenty years be fore the Carroll heirs received the whole of the $S00 which Stuart re ceived for the finest portrait ever painted of the Father of His Country During the hasty cutting of the picture from its frame when tlie victorious British were marching on the capital the signature of Stuart was destroyed The picture lay in obscurity for a doz en years, and there was some doubt thrown on its authenticity'when it was reining in the White House. It now adorns the blue room with Martha Washington by the same artist, and the two form tlie sole decoration of the throne room, as tlie dainty blue room is dubbed by those who like court phrases. For over seventy-five years it hung in the east room.—New York Press. The Servant Girl In Germany. In most German households there Is no such thing as the strict division of lalior insisted on here. Your cook will he delighted to make a blouse for you. aud your nurse will turn out ?n the dining room, while your chambermaid will take tlie child for an airing if you order it so. They are more human in their relation to their employers. The English servant fixes a gulf lietween herself and the most democratic mis tress. The German brings her intimate joys and sorrows to a good lierrsebaft and expects their sympathy. When a girl has bad luck and en gages with a bad herrsehaft she is worse off than in England because she is more in the power of her employers aud of the police than she would he here.

NATURE AND A WOMAN’S WORK THE CREATIVE POWER. ’Science,” Said Lord Kelvin, “Affirms the Existence cf a God.” 1 cannot at ail accept the view of those who assert tiiat ether is atomic, since all my owij investigations have clearly demonstrated to me that its structure is totally Monatomic. In fact, it has no structure in the accepted meaning of tlie term. Neither can 1 accept tlie view of those who assert that science neither aiiirms nor denies the existence of a Creator. On the con trary. science most positively asserts tin' existence of a creative power. We - Restaurant Stories. “I don’t care for the vulgar type of restaurant story,” said a New Y’ork lio- j tol keeper. "I refer to that type where i the guest shouts angrily to the waiter: “‘Ugh, this steak is not fresh! What a horrible smell! Here, waiter, judge for yourself!’ “But, shaking his head, the waiter points to the next table and answers grimly: “’Beg pardon, sir, you’re quite wrong. It’s the other gentleman's fish.’ “Or the story of the man who com plained about his planked shad, wind ing up: " ‘I hope you don’t think me unrea sonable, waiter?’ “‘No, no, sir,’ the waiter answered. ‘You’re the sixth person what lias com plained about that portion of shad.’ “On a somewhat higher plane are the meat stories. Thus a strange «guest says: “ ‘Surely this isn't a barber shop as well as a restaurant? I see u lot of razors lying about’ “ *Oh, uo, sir!’ says the waiter. ‘Those are for the steak customers. Did you say steak, sir?’ ” cannot escape from thi conclusion _ Tjwere Was a Difference. When Dr Caudal!

No answer. “Come, come!" said the future archbishop. “Was there any difference, for in stance. between King Solomon and my self?” A tiny band went up and a tiny voice replied.

Mrs. L., a young and inexperienced Sunday school teacher, was at times sorely perplexed how to answer the questions put to her by some of her unusually bright pupils. One day just after she had finished telling the chil dren the story that Adam was the first man God created quiet reigned in the class room for several minutes. Sud denly up jumped little Uosie and in a piping voice said, "Oh. teacher, you for got to tell us whether God created Adam right away a man or a baby!” Embarrassed Mrs. L. looked up to the ceiling and then to the children for an Inspiration. Happily she quickly spied Betty’s little hand raised above the others eager to answer the question. “Teacher. I am surprised my sister Uosie should ask such a foolish ques tion. Why, God must have created Adam right away a big man, because if God had created him a baby he would have had to have a mother to take care of him.” LYDIA E. PINKHA1 Nature and a woman’s work com bined have produced the grandest remedy for woman’s ills that the world has ever known. In the good old-fashioned days of our grandmothers they relied upon the roots and herbs of the field to cure disease and mitigate suffering. The Indians on our Western Plains to -day can produce roots and herbs for every ailment, and cure diseases that battle the most skilled physicians who have spent years in the study of drugs. From the roots and herbs of the field Lydia E. Pinkham more than thirty years ago gave to the women of the world a remedy for their pe culiar ill's, more potent and effica cious than any combination of drugs. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound is now recognized as the standard remedy for woman’s ills. Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 515 N.C. St., Louisiana, Mo., writes: “ Complete restoration to health means so much to me that for the sake of other suffering women I am willing to make my troubles public. “ For twelve years I had been suffer ing witli the worst forms of female ills. During that time I had eleven different physicians without help. No tongue can tell what I suffered, and at times I could hardly walk. About two years ago I wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice. I followed it, and.can truly say that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com pound aud Mrs. linkham's advice re stored health aud strength. It is worth mountains of gold to suffering women.” What Lydia E. I'inkham’s Vege table CYm.pound did for Mrs. Muff, it will do lor other suffering women.
