then began to question the man himself
In that language mid seemed t<i

"You forget, major, that 1 do not

'"J rue. lie said. "I forgot."
Sonn-how I got tlie* idea that lie was

Ho said that 1 must hy all

party among whom were several ladles
were exported to visit headquarters
and the marshal wished mo to moot

I consented.
The party wore Kiigll-di with the ex
option of one very pretty woman, n
Bulgarian. We all dined with the mar
nhal. the Bulgarian lady being assignor
to nie as a <linner oonipanion. Dining

SWINDLERS WHO GAVE AWAY BIG
FORTUNES IN CHARITY.
Many UiUncr* of Mob Who Became
On<r?Ktofla Rohbera For the Paryour
of Hrllevlnr Mlaery and Olafresa
With Tbelr III Ciottee flalaa.
Two or three cliarltnblc Institutes iu
Italy owe their foundation to a fatuous
(swindler named ltoselli. whose whole
rim in life seems to have been to bene11
poor children who, like himself, were
cripples. Originally possessed of a
Binnil fortune, he practically beggared
himself with this most worthy object.
But there, of course, he should have
stopped. Instead of doing so, however,
he embarked on a series of gigantic
frauds, by which he became possessed
of many tens of thousands of pounds,
which he devoted to the cause of cripples.
The disinterestedness of the motive
for his crimes Is established by the
fact that he himself lived most frugally
iu quite humble circumstances while
he was dispensing thousands of pounds
In charity, every penny of his 111 gotten
(rains crolmr In this wav. Hundreds of
cripples and other suffering children
learned to bless his name, and It Is estimated
that he gave away between
fW.OOrt and ?00,000 to relieve the sufferings
and brighten the lives of those
"whom God hod not made straight."
During his somewhat brief career
as a man of wealth, lied path, the railway
clerk, who swindled his employers
of nearly a quarter of a million
pounds by means of forged stock certificates,
dispensed a very considerable
sum of money In charity. 1a?:h1lng
a double life and, out of office
hours, posing as a successful financier,
lie was constantly applied to l?y his
acquaintances to assist charities In
which tliey were Interested, and ho
helped others as generously as he liad
helped himself. To beggars he rarely
gave less than a sovereign, and time
upon time he went "slumming" In order
to help oases of distress.
But It cannot, of course, be asserted
that his gigantic frauds wore operated
by liini with the object of being charitable.
He was undoubtedly generous
and the total amount of money lie gave
away In charity would have kept him
in luxury nil his life. Palmer, the
daring burglar, it would seem, embarked
on his wonderfully successful
career of crime solely from perverted
philanthropic motives. He lived humbly
and gave away all he stole, ltedpath
lived in such lordly style that one wonders
that he should have managed to
escape detection for so long as ten
years.
Palmer was without doubt tho most
successful burglar England has ever
known, not only because bis hauls
were generally rich, but {>ccau8e during
a whole decade of systematic'
crime he never once fell Into the hands
of the police. It la estimated that he
''acqulgpd" more tlmn ?100,000 In tho
course of his career, and almost every
penny of this was given away in charIty.
Norwich, wliere he lived, owes
him n debt of gratitude It is not likely
quickly to forget, for his benefactions
In that town alone ran into tens of
thousands of pounds. No local case of
distress ever came under his notice
without receiving help from him. The
old and crippled particularly evoked
his charity, and it is said that he spent
upward of ?50,000 in establishing an
infirmary.
In no small measure was it due to
his charitable propensities that Kiut,
the famous bank clerk who robbed
the Bank of Belgium of nearly n million
of money, drifted on his career of
crime. It was his ambition to be a
great philanthropist, but as n bank
clerk he had not the means, and, hoping
to get rich quickly, he went in for
rash speculations. losing, he robbed
his employers to obtain the money
with which to pay his account aud to
muke another attempt. He found It
comparatively easy to get hold of largo
sums of money in this way, and he
went on stealing not only to pay his
losses, but also to obtain funds with
which to be charitable while he was
waiting for a great stroke of luck to
make him rich und thus repay Ids borrowings.
Luck, however, whs against liim,
and one day ho awoke to the fact that
be had in all robbed the bank of nearly
?1,000,000, which he could never
> hope to repay. Discovery being In,
evitable, he fled, only, however, to be
caught and sentenced to fifteen years'
1 imprisonment.
Milreau, who was said to ha\ been
connected with some of the best families
in France and to have possessed
considerable meana until ruined by
i the Panama canal disaster, was one of
, the best friends the beggurs of Paris
I ever had, and to obtain funds for helping
them ho became a systematic thief.
He used to frequent the fashionable
streets during the day and pick pockEta,
and by night, dressed In ragged
lothes, he dispensed the spoils to the
first beggars he met. For years he
continued the practice without being
suspected, and it was by pure chance
mat he eveutually did fall Into tlic
hands of the police. When hie lodgings
were searched sufficiently empty
purses were found to fill a large pack
ing case, and It was made clear that he
had stolen hundreds of watches aud
scarfplns, whilo he had been pinching
; and contriving to live a respectable
man on a few francs a week saved
[ from the ruin of his fortune.?London

DANGER IN DELAY.
Kidney Diseases Are too
Dangerous for Union
People to NegltfCt.
The great danger of kidney troubles
is that they get a firm hohl before the
suffererer recognizes them. Health is
gradually undermined. Backache,
headache, nervousness, lameness, soreness,
lumbago urinary troubles, dropsy,
diabetes and Briglit's disease follow in
mereiless success. Don't neglect your
kidneys. Cure the kidneys with the
reitainaud 3afe remedy, Doan's Kidney
Pills, which has cured people right
here in Union.
E. L. Kingsmore, tho well-known
farmer, living two miles outsido of
Union, says: ''I have suffered for thirty
five years with my kidneys. I first
had it when a boy, but of late years it
has been worse. My kidneys pained
me so that I thought it would kill me.
Right across the small of tuy back and
through tho hips I had such pains that
I was obliged to get down on the A?or
many a time and as for doing my work
when these attacks came on, that was
simply out of the question. It was all
I could do to draw my breath I could
not tell all the remedies 1 have used,
but nothing did me much go>>d until I
procured Doan's Kidney Pills. Before
getting them have even had my back
i*oned with a hot iron, just as hot as I
could stand it, and more plasters; in
fact, tried everything in hopes of get
ting relief. Poan'8 Kidney Pills are
the only remedy that haB ever given
mo any lasting benefit. My back hag
not ached as it formerly did, atid is
stronger today than it has been fni
twenty-five years. I give all the credit
to the use of Doan's Kidney,.pills."

Down beside the river's bed.
Underneath the ripples flushing
Silvery tins are waving slow
Where tho waters white uro dashing
To the rocky shoals below.

Up on acorns and tho like.
And the hired man Is shocking

trials for nervous or impulsive mei

their tactics must be to resist them 1

who keeps cool is sure to have his op
