"Some.ffiy she's thinkln' o" marryin' that man beoa'so her sick daddy wants her to, an* I'd ! never be aatlsfled ef I let a woman j marry a thing like that, bellevln' he j was honorable an' braye like her dnddy , an' like somebody else I know. No; I would thank anybody to tell a daughter o* mine sech a thing, an' IJTelt liko It was my duty." George bit his lip and stifled an exclamation of irritation, but he met the old man's loot presently with n Btendy tare. "What did she sny, Trultt?" he asked Anally. "Sny? I hardly know," said Trultt. "Her face got the purtlest color I ever seed, nn' while I was talkln' she kept say In', 'Go on, go on, Mr. Trultt, go on!" an' right In the middle o' some things she'd Jest laugh out nn' klver 'er mouth with thnt white hand o' her'n, but she kept sny In', 'Go on, go on!' an' looked like Rhc Jest couldn't wait fer me to git through. An' when I finally got to whnr I lifted Mm by one o' his side trnps out o' his chnlr she Jest hollered: i 'No, you didn't rnllly, Mr. Trultt. Did | yon do that to the governoro' Georgia?' ! I told 'er I certainly did, nn' she i laughed like she'd bust. She followed J 1 me olenn to the front gnte. You mny i 1 think she's n purty woman, but I'll bet | she never looked as purty to you as she 1 did then. The wind was devllln' her < hair, an* her cheeks looked like ripe peaches. Seemed like she'd sorter tuck i a llkln' to me, fer once or twice she i fnrcrnt nn' ruit hpr hnrwl r?n inr nrin i Then nhe said, 'Mr. Trultt,believe I < kin trust you with a secret, an' I want to tell you some'n'.' "I told 'er I was a graveyard itself when It eoiu? to keepln' secrets fer 1 women folks, but she sorter hung lire, i Her face got serious, an' she wouldn't look me In the eye like she had been a-doln'. I told 'er not to be afeard o' me, an' she started In ag'in, but > topped. 'No,' says she, 'I believe 1 won't tell you after all. Men are the i i cry dickens to tell tales.' Then I re- i minded 'er that 1 was a old Confederate soldier an' that women an' tlie'r private matters was sacred to men that i had fit for the south an' Its honor, an' that aorter fetched 'er. 'Well,' says she, 'you do look like n man a woman could trust, an' of you'll give me your word that this won't go no furder I'll tell you.' " 'I'll do It,' says I. "'Will you swear It?' anys she. " 'Not only that,' says I. 'but I'll cross tny heart.' " 'Well,' says she, 'that's all a worn- ' nn coukl ax, nit' I'm sorry I have to be so particular, but I'd rather Ale than have a single soul know what I'm goln' to tell you. I want to tell you to aliow how much I appreciate what you did on that Atlanta trip.' Then alie swallowed once or twice, an', lookln' me In the eye an' p'lntln' across the yard, she snid: 'Mr. Trultt, I was aettln' In that summer house t'other night an' heard Governor Telfare InKult George Buckley, an' I'm gladglad?glad?you done what you done. , As Governor Telfare was risltin' my house an' as father's health is so bad I couldn't do more, but I tried my best that night to show preference to Mr. i Buckley, but he misunderstood mo an' ; went off mad.' " j "She nakl that?" George exclaimed, ; his face aglow, his eyes flashing. "And did she say anything else?" "Yes, "khe did, George, an' 1 got awfully sorry for 'or. She told me her pa had set his heart on her inarryin' Telfare, an' that she was afeard, since her father had heart disease, to run contrary to his wishes. She said she was afeard the dianpp'Uitmcnt ud actually kill *lm. 1 didn't* know what to say.

Without another word Truitt'turned and left the office. George snt?n moment as if dazed by a sudden realization that had come to him frbni the old soldier's recital. He was recalling Lydla's appearance and manner as ?he came Into the parlor that evening with the flower in her hnnd. "God bless her!" he s.rld reverently. "She was right, then, trying to show her contempt for Tel fa re's conduct, and I was brute enough to misjudge h * ^ > CHAPTER XXV. * THINK the Lord had n hand I I m? next <}oor to r I Mrs. Dugan," said Mr? II111* -* -y*t to George that efenlng after acppar. "When mjr sparlt# sink ** a ! Tjt \ - Qim' <+, '/ '&im { *? SPe ? i, \ way Vlown to zero I go out In the yard an' give 'er a chance to come over an* talk. No; I never go over tbar. All I got to do Is to let 'er see me, an' she's on me like a duck on a June bug. She'll talk yore head off. but she'll help you out of a tight whenever you give 'er the wink. Me an' her together worked Horteusc as fine as split silk t'other day. You know, Jim ICenuer's Jest about crazy to pay his attentions, an' she holds off an' won't let Mm set In. I made up my mind six months ago that I'd make ft match out o' that material, but beyond glttin' Jim to toiler me all over creation an' her to fairly lop up all I had to say about Mm that was as nigh as I come to doin' business. It puzzled me right sharp, fer I knowed the gal had marry on her mind, an' I knowed Jim Kenner was jest the thing fer 'er. Finally I dropped on to the difficulty. You know, a steady gal like Hortense Snowden sometimes lias a rcghlar horror of n goody goody feller, nn' I-seed she thought he'd jest escaped beln' "a, preacher by a hair's breadth an' met goln' with gals because he was afeard of 'em. I let Mrs. Dugan In on my racket, an' I 'lowed she'd have a fit, she was so tickled. She got her sewln' an' come over, an' we tuck chRlrs nigh Hortense, an' Mrs. Dugan begun. You'd 'a' thought she was on the courthouse stand swearin' In a murder case, 8be was so serious. She led u|y to It ns gradual as a man drivln' a school o* fish upstream lr\to a net. I think she give cver'body in Darley a slap or a dab in passln*. Finally she said It was the men that I laid low an' that ever'bodv thought 1 was so steady that was the regular devils on the sly. 'Now, tliar's that long, slim shanked Kenner,' said she, flnppln' out the sheet she was hemmin'. 'Folks thinks he's so Innocent; but, la me, he's the terriblest flirt in Bevon states. He buys cotton all over the country nn' lias a gal in every town he hits.' " 'You are off thar,' said I. 'I know better'n that, lie's one man that don't care fer women.' "'Tell thnt to the maroons," Mrs. Dugan sneered. Then she reeled off a tale she said Bob Hanks' wife told 'er about n hof Tim Tt nrtnnr nn' n u*IiaIa naeclo o' fellers bad made, that thoy was goln' to kiss a certain gal whether or no. She said the gal was kinder saft, anyway, an' they all pot a whack at her. but that when Jlni Kenner got through with 'er she had the backache an* said he was the wust she'd ever seed. I wns a-watchin' Hortense out o' the corner o' my eye. She got fust white an' then red. but she kept 'er ears open. I don't know all Mrs. Dugan didn't Bay, but the best thing was when she said uo ordinary woman could make any impression on a man o' that stamp. I seed Hortense sorter bite 'er lip an' Btraighten up like she was makin' a resolution. And after Mrs. Dugan had gone home she set around like slie wns out o' J'lnt all at once. You know a woman will kinder count on a man's regard, an' feeu on it. an' Jest drift without lookln' ahead. Ef she's shore o' his admiration she'd a heap o* times ruther have 'ini at arm's length than to be cookln' an* scrubbin' for Mm ur hli brats. That's whar Hortense was at. She's k no wed a few married men an' had noticed how plumb crazy they was about the'r wives after the honeymoon was over. Rut nothin' ain't smooth in this world, an' why should married life be nil exception? An' then Hortense hates to be called a old maid. Well, [ to cut my tale off. Hortense jest come out flat that evenln' an' said, When you see Mr. Kenner you may tell *lm he kin come.' An* while you was out home last Thursday night they had the parlor to tlie'rselves. Me an' Mr. Hlllyer set on the front veranda. Jim Kenner hain't no slouch. lie kept 'cr lnughln' all evenln' at his tales, an' when she come out after he'd gone she said he was the most agreeable man she'd ever met. Not a word's been said about niarrj-in' betwixt 'em, but I'll talk to 'er about 'er things Inside of a week, now see ef I don't. Seems like lots o* Dnrley folks Is under the weather here lately. Thnr's Lawyer Trnbue. They say he's awfully sick. George Buckley, I may look light hearted, hut I've got a sight to trouble me. I worry about Mr. Hillycr mighty nigh constant" "I suppose you do," answered Buckley, meeting her glance sympathetic ally. "I worry about him beca'se he hain't open with nie," she went on. "You know thnr's one matter that we never mention betwixt us, an' I jest have to guess at how he feels In his different moods. Now, I'm bothered over the Way he's nctln' about Trabuc's sickness. Why should he git excited over that? But he is. When we fust heard It he didn't seein to pay no more at tennon to it man ir tue report hud been about any other citizen, but nil at once, while ho was rend in' the Advocate at the lamp, he put the paper down Qjiick ou' got up an* went outBide. 1 went to tho door an* heard 'iui axin' Jake how Trabue was, an* when Jake told Mm he wasn't no better he come back In the house pale an' nervous, an' last night he hardly slept at all. Do you know of any important dealings he's had with Trubue, George?" "No, I do not, Mrs. Hllljrer," George replied. "I can't understand it." "I sorter thought at fust that it was beca'se him an' Trabue is about the same age, an' it sorter mndo Mm reflect on the end we all have to come to. You know, George, Mr. Hlllyer's great trouble lias made Mm more afeard to die than most men?men o' that sort seem to dread the end, like they think some special punishment Is in store fer 'em. As fer as I'm concerned, I don't bellevo Mr. Illllycr Ml be pnnlshed at all. He's suffered ten times too much already." Later that 'evening Hlltyer took George into hl? confidence as they were smoking on the lawn together. "George, I'm In a sight o' trouble," I . he said. "And it's the old thing. You temeifc6er I told you Trabue was payin' Mrs. Hambriglit a pension through me?" "Yes, I remember that," George said. "Well, Trabue Is mighty low, and if he was to die, George, an explanation woiild have to be made. She'd have to j bo told that her allowance wasn't coming from the government, an' maybe she'd upbraid me an' Impoverish' 'erself to pay all of i^ back. Oh, George, I'm awfully miserable! I went to talk to Trabue ip private, but the doctor won't let- a .soul see 'lin. George," ho said, undpr his breath, "if Mrs. Ilambrlght was to throw up my crime to me at this lato day?bowed as she is with age and as nigh as she is to God?I'd never git over It, I tell you?never!" And throwing his half smoked cigar away, Hlllyer strodo off in the darkness. A little later, as George stood near the gate, Jim Ivenner came up dressed In his best suit, a flower In his buttonhole. "I reckon you think I'm a purty thing goln' to sec gals at my time o' life," he said, with a sheepish laugh as ho opened the gate. "I was wondering if I ought not to tell Ilortense something about your dark past," George laughed. "I wish yoxi would blacken my record a little," returned Kenner. "The truth is, Mrs. Hlllyer says Ilortense doesn't j exactly take to the goody goody, preachy sort o' cbnp, an' to hear mo onmit itt/mi * /I tKlnb T ???ci ?? " ? ? ! I rallly am. Oh, I've been a few gaits I In my time, but 1 hain't bad! It's a 1 ' God's fact, though, that a heap o' wornyjti "Jfot n word's been said about marryln' betwixt 'cm." en ud rather have doubts about a man an to know positive that lie's a a:.gel In pants. Ilortense Is that away, an* what I'm workin' on her right now might be called the 'hold-in* plan." j. nt; uuiu-ia iiiuii; ueorge ecnoea wonderingly. "Yes, the 'hold-in'," answered Kenner. "You see, ef I was to tell her right out that my past record was as black as a stuck of black cats she'd not believe it, but when she comes right at me an' accuses me o' all manner o' devilment 1 simply hold la or change the subject. A man cayn't never make a woman believe he's bad by tellln' her he is, any more'n ho kin make 'er believe he's good by the same process. The 'hold-in' racket tills the bill exactly. A woman is secli a mystery herself that she likes what she don't understand. Thar, I see llortense on the veranda! George, she's a daisy, ef I do say it. She's Jest the woman I've always wanted. I Joke a lots, but that's the truth, my hoy." Ito be continued.] The Whole Hoc. Whence comes the expression "to go Ihe whole hog," which occupies so prominent a position in fiscal politics? asks the Liverpool Post. In one authoritative work on such matters it is stated that the phrase probably arose from the Arabian story versified in Cowper's "Love of the World Reproved." Mohammed allowed his followers to eat pork, except one portion of the animal, which he did not specify, and consequently strict Mohammedans wero debarred from eating any. Others, however, "thought it hard from the 'whole hog* to l>e debarred," and so "with sophistry their sauce they sweeten, till quite from tail to snout 'tis eaten." In an American book on political squibs, published in 1844, the author says, "To go the whole hog Is an American-English phrase for radical reform and is much used hero by the Democratic par ty to distinguish tliein from the Federalists, who don't profess such sweeping notions nnd consequently go only a part of the Interesting quadruped in question."

After having been submerged more than twelve hours off Newport, In which time the officers and crew ate their meals, cooked on an electric stove more than twenty feet beneath the water, the submarine torpedo boat Fulton came to the surface shortly before noon tlio other day, says the New York World. The officers and men, to the liumber of nine, experienced rio inconvenience while beneath the water in the torpedo boat They were divided into watches of two hours each and spent their time when not on duty In Dlavinir cards and sleeping. Being tumble to smoke worried some of the officers and men worse than anything else. The board of Inspection of the navy department which was In charge of the tests to which the Fulton was subjected would not permit nny matches or Are to be taken aboard the boat. Several boxes of cigars were taken nboanl before the entrance hatch was finally closed, nnd the men were permitted to have "dry smokes"?that Is, to chew cigars. The naval officers In charge of the test say that It was one of the most severe and at the same time the most satisfactory that a submarine boat has ever undergone. Fresh air was forced Into the compartment occupied by the crew once every four hours, In conformity with the Instructions of the Inspection board. At no time did the crew feel any 111 effects from lack of air or too much air. It was not until after 8 o'clock at night that the preparations for the "habitation test," which provided the boat should rcinnln submerged continuously for twelve hours, were begun. At 10:30 o'clock the boot began to submerge nnd Just thirteen minutes later was entirely out of sight. Members of the crew sny their stay under water was most pleasant, and that they slept as comfortably as they would In their own beds. Tliey could plainly hear the noise made by passing steamboats and all were up early the next morning. The chef prepared a breakfast of ham nnd eggs, with hot coffee, biscuits and a cereal on the electric stove, nnd from what he say's the confinement In the submerged l>oat did not affect the nppetWb of anybody. Preparations for raising the submerged boat were begun at 11 o'clock In the morning by the crew nboanl, and live minutes later the Pulton ??? awash.

SONS, Sudsnian, Richmond, Va. 1 ?U. , N 1 y JAPANESE LOVE OF BATHS. BT?rrk?4r In the Laud of the Chrysanthemum Like* to Bo Clean,. Froth time lmmemorial the bathtub has been an honorable institution In Japan, says Modern Society. Instead of a cold dip in the morning the Japs take their baths hot in the afternoon ut about 5 o'clock, and, beginning at, 100 degrees, the tendency is to raise the temperature as one becomes accli'mated, so to speak. One traveler tells of the Kawaruyu bathers, who stay in the tub for several weeks at a time with stones in their laps to keep their bodies from floating while they are asleep. * The usual thing is to have the tub on the lawn with a charcoal fire beneath it, so that one can get into the water at 80. degrees and sit in it until it reaches 100 degrees. J^t this point tt "gfifflli," which is to any a newchum, "ir greenhorn or a tenderfoot,. usually has to get out, for it beoojnes literally too hot for him. But nlfter a year of two of practice he cap manage 115 or 120 degrees. The Japs themselves can enjoy a bath even at 128 degrees. A traveler tells an mquslng tale of how he visited a Japanese friend on an at home day and accepted the offer of a bath on the lawn. He got in when the water was tepid und enjoyed it immensely up to ninety something. Just as he was thinking of getting out his friend's wife and daughter put in an appearance and begrin to wash rice at a well near by. Now, the regulation bathing dress of Japan is like a foot less stocKing without a leg or a bunghole without ft bftrrel round It, nnd our traveler hadn't It with him at the time. He endured another five degrees, and then, with death by boiling stnrlnjL hhn In the face, ho was forced out with an Involuntary yell that attracted much attention. The fact Is that In Japan everybody bathes In purls naturallbus. It Is their way, and it Is not till a European has lived among them for years that he or she realizes that after all there is nothing very terrible about It. Arboreal Home* For ConnnmptlTci. Professor O. D. Stelnberger of Springfield, O., who for years has been fighting consumption by living In a treetop, believing that air fifty feet from the ground is purer than on the level, lias taken to constructing other similar abodes for Invalids. He Is now superintending the building of one for George Quick, who Is in poor health and seventy-two years old. This house Is to be sixty feet from the ground, In the branches of a lofty oak. An elevator is being provided to transport the aged invalid to nnd from his house, In which lie will remain during the days, and in good weather, during the summer, he will sleep in It at night. Professor Stelnberger lias built several houses, but this is to be the highest yet constructed. More men* would be wealthy 1f their wives' plans to save money materialized. OVER-TAXED. Hundreds Of Union Readers Know What It Means. The kidneys are overtaxed; have too much to do. They tell about it in many aches and pains, backache, sideache, headache. Early symptoms of kidney ills. Urinary troubles; diabetes, Ilright's disease follow. A Union citizen tells here a certain cure. Robert Sanders, mill-hand, residing at 1(5 Church Street, says: "My son used Doan's Kidney Pills for kidney and bladder trouble from which he has suffered almost all his life. He cannot stand any work which causes a strain on has back, and the secretions from the kidneys are strong and dark, and there is too frequent action, especially at night. I am convinced that the pains and other symptons arise from weakness of the kidneys and bladder and although we have given him a dozen kidney remedies the results were so slight we thought he would be afflicted for life. Seeing Doan's Kidney Pills advertised, I went to Holmes Pharmacy and got a box. Before he bad used half of it the trouble was relieved. The use of two boxes brought such satisfactory results that we are as delighted as he is. He has had no return of the backache and the other symptoms of weak kidneys do not trouble him."
