The conductor stood over the heap, at a manifest advantage. "You lumber jacks had enough, or do you want to catch it plenty?" The men, drunk though they were, realized their helplessness. They sig nified they had had enough. Jimmy thereupon released them and stood up, brushing down his tousled hair with his stubby fingers. "Now, is it ticket or bounce?" inquir ed the conductor. After some difficulty and grumbling Uhe two paid their fare and that of the third, who was still dazed. $The interested spectators of the little drama included two men near the water cooler who were perfectly sober. One of them was perhaps past the best of life, but still straight and vigorous. His lean face was leather brown in .vntrast to a long mustache and heavy eyebrows bleached nearly white, his eyes were a clear, steady blue and his frame was slender, but wiry. He wore the regulation mackinaw blanket coat, a peaked cap with an extraordinary high crown and buckskin moccasins over long stockings. The other was younger, not more than twenty-six perhaps, with the clean cut, regular features we have come to He was seized by the collar. consider typically American. Eye brows that curved far down along the temples and eyelashes of a darkness in contrast to the prevailing note of his complexion combined to lend him a rather brooding, soft and melancholy air which a very cursory second ex amination showed to be fictitious. His X'\'eyes, like the woodman's, were steady, but inquiring. His jaw was square and settled, his mouth straight. Unlike the other inmates of the car he wore an ordinary business suit, somewhat worn, but of good cut and a style that showed even over the soft flannel shirt. The trousers were, however, bound inside the usual socks and rubbers. The two seat mates had occupied their time each in his own fashion. The elder stared straight before him and spat with a certain periodicity into the center of the aisle. The younger .stretched back lazily in an attitdue of *ase. Sometimes he smoked a pipe. Thrice he read over a letter. It was from his sister and announced her ar rival at the little rural village in which he had made arrangements for her to stay. "It is interesting now," she Vwrote, "though the resources do not ^xook as though they would wear well. I am learning under Mrs. Renwick to sweep and dust and bake and stew and do a multitude of other things which I always vaguely supposed came ready made. I like it, but after I have learn ed it all I do not believe the practice will appeal to me much. However, 1 can stand it well enough for a year or two or three, for I am young, and then you will have made your everlasting fortune, of course." "She's a trump," said Thorpe to him self, "and she shall have her everlast ing fortune if there's such a thing in the country." He jingled the $3.60 in his pocket and smiled. That was the extent of his ev erlasting fortune at present. The letter had been answered from Detroit. "I am glad you are settled," he wrote. "At least I know you have enough to eat and a roof over you. I hope sin cerely that you will do your best to fit yourself to your new conditions. I know it is hard, but with my lack of experience and my ignorance as to where to take hold it may be a good many years before we can do any better." When Helen Thorpe read this she ..jied. Things had gone wrong that morning, and an encouraging word would have helped her. The somber tone of her brother's communication threw her into a fit of the blues from k^ which for the first time she saw her ,v~ surroundings in a depressing and dis tasteful light. And yet he had writ ten as he did with the kindest possible motives. i Thorpe had the misfortune to be one of those individuals who, though care less of what people in general may think of them, are in a corresponding degree sensitive to the opinion of the few they love. This feeling was fur ther exaggerated by a constitutional shrinking from any outward manifes tation of the emotions. Perhaps for this reason he was never entirely sin cere with those he loved. After the disgrace of his father Har 17 Thorpe had done a great deal of thinking and planning which he kept hMm^MkiM^^MmB^^Jl *"& carefully to himself. He considered in turn the different occupations- to which he could turn his hand and neg atived them one by one. Few business firms would care to employ the son of as shrewd an embezzler as Henry Thorpe. Finally he came to a decision. communicated this decision to his1' sister. It would have commended it self more logically to her had she been able to follow step by step the consid eration that had led her brother to it. As the event turned, she was forced to accept it blindly. She knew that her brother intended going west, but as to his hopes and plans she was in igno rance. A little sympathy, a little mu tual understanding, would have meant a great deal to her, for a girl whose mother she but dimly remembers turns naturally to her next of kin. Helen Thorpe had always admired her broth er, but had never before needed him. She had looked upon him as strong, self contained, a little moody. At the beginning of the row in the smoking car Thorpe laid a^ide his let ter and watched with kefen apprecia tion the direct practicality of the train men's method. When the bearded man fell before the conductor's blow, he turned to the individual at his side. "He knows how to hit, doesn't he?" he observed. "That fellow was knock ed well off his feet." "He does," agreed the other dryly. They fell into a desultory conversa tion of fits and starts. Woodsmen of the genuine sort are never talkative, and Thorpe, as has been explained, was constitutionally reticent. In the course of their disjointed remarks Thorpe explained that he was looking for work in the woods and intended first of all to try the Morrison & Daly camps at Beeson lake. "Know anything about logging?" in quired the stranger. "Nothing," Thorpe confessed. "Ain't much show for anything but lumber jacks. What did you think of doing?" "I don't know," said Thorpe doubt fully. "I have driven horses a good deal. I thought I might drive team." The woodsman turned slowly and looked Thorpe over with a quizzical eye. Then he faced to the front again and spat. "Quite like," he replied, still more dryly. The boy's remark had amused him, and he had showed it, as much as he ever showed anything. Excepting al ways the river men, the driver of a team commands the highest wages among out of door workers. It is easier to drive a fire engine than a logging team. But in spite of the naivete of the re mark the woodsman had seen some thing in Thorpe he liked. Such men be come rather expert in the reading of character. revised his first inten tion to let the conversation drop. "I think M. & D. is rather full up just now," he remarked. "I'm walkin' boss over there. The roads is about all made, and roadmaking is what a .greenhorn tackles first They's more chance earlier in the year. But if the old fellow"he strongly accent ed the first word"hain't nothin' for you, just ask for Tim Shearer, an' I'll try to put you on the trail for some jobber's camp." The three who had come into colli sion with Jimmy and Bud were getting noisier. They had produced a stone jug and had collected the remainder of the passengers, with the exception of Shearer and Thorpe, and now were passing the jug rapidly from hand to hand. Soon they became musical, strik ing up one of the wierd, long drawn out chants so popular with the shanty boy. Thorpe shrewdly guessed his companion to be a man of some weight and did not hesitate to ascribe his im munity from annoyance to the other's presence. "It's a bad thing," said the walking boss. "I used to be at it myself, and I know." "Bees'n Lake!" cried Jimmy fiercely through the aperture of the door. "You'll find the boardin' house just across over the track," said the woods man, holding out his hand. "So long. See you again if you don't find a job with the old fellow. My name's Shearer." "Mine is Thorpe," replied the other. "Thank you." Thorpe followed and found himself on the frozen platform of a little dark railway station. Directly across the track from the railway station a sin gle building was pricked from the dark by a solitary lamp in a lower story room. The four who had descended before Thorpe made over toward this light, stumbling and laughing uncer tainly, so he knew it was probably the boarding house and prepared to follow them. The five were met at the steps by the proprietor of the boarding house. This man was short and stout, with a hare lip and cleft palate, which at once gave him the well known slurring speech of persons so afflicted and imparted also to the timbre of his voice a pecul iarly hollow, resonant, trumpetlike note. stumped about energetically on a wooden leg of home manufacture. It was a cumbersome instrument, heavy, with deep pine socket for the stump and a projecting brace which passed under a leather belt around the man's waist. This instrument he used with the dexterity of a third hand. As Thorpe watched him he drove in a pro jecting nail, kicked two "turkeys" in side the open door and stuck the armed end of his peg leg through the top and bottom of the whisky jug that one of the new arrivals had set down near the door. The whisky promptly ran out. At this the cripple flirted the im paled jug from the wooden leg far out over the rail of the veranda into the snow. A growl went up. "What 'n thunder's that for?" snarl ed one of the owners of the whisky threateningly. &*r- "4- ^d^^k^^^sJt^^'^^'^^M^^^^^^^ "Don't aii'*w no whisky here," snuff ed the harelip. The men were very angry. They ad vanced toward the cripple, who re treated with astonishing agility to the lighted room. There be)ent the wood en leg behind him, slipped the end of the brace from beneath the leather belt, seized the other peg end in his right hand and so became possessed of a murderous bludgeon. This he brand ished, hopping at the same time back and forth in such perfect poise and yet With so ludicrous an effect of popping corn that the men were surprised into laughing. "Bully for you, pegleg!" they cried. "Rules an' regerlations, boys," replied the latter, without, however, a shade of compromising in his tones. "Had supper?" [TO E CONTINUED.] An Open Letter. From the Chapin, S. News: Ear ly in the spring my wife and I were taken with diarrhoea and so severe were the pains that we called a physi cian who prescribed for us, but his medicines failed to give any relief. A friend who had a bottle of Chamber lain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy on hand gave each of us a dose and we at once felt the effects. I procured a bottle and before using the entire contents we were entirely cured. It is a wonderful remedy and should be found in every household. H. C. Bailey, editor.

General Barlow of the Union army fell wounded and, it was thought, dy ing during the first day of the battle of Gettysburg and within the Confederate lines. General Gordon, cantering by, saw him and recognized him. Dis mounting, he approached the prostrate man and inquired what he could do for him. "I am dying," said Barlow. "Just reach into my coat pocket, draw out the letter you find there and read it to me. It is from my wife." Gordon read the letter. "Now, general," said Barlow, "please destroy that letter. I want you to noti fy hershe is in the town over yonder what has happened to me." "I will," replied Gordon. He sent for Mrs. Barlow, giving her safe conduct through the southern lines, and then rode away, certain that Barlow's death was a question of only a few hours at most. But Barlow did not die. His wife came promptly and had him removed to the town of Gettysburg, where she nursed him so faithfully that he recov ered. Many years passed until one night both generals were guests at a dinner in Washington. Some one brought them together and formally introduced them. Time had altered the personal appearance of both. "Are you any relation to the General Barlow who was killed at Gettys- burg?" asked Gordon. "Yes a very near relation," an swered Barlow, with a laugh. "I am the very man who was killed. But I have been informed that a man named Gordon lost his life in battle later on. saved my life at Gettysburg. Are you any kin to that man?" "I am he," was the reply. Both heroes laughed as they gave each other a heartier handshake. Pittsburg Dispatch. IF YOU ARE WELL BRED- Tou will try to make others happy. You will not be shy or self conscious.

Finger rings, earrings, bracelets, brooches and other articles of personal adornment originated not from the aes thetic sense of our remote ancestors, but from their belief in magic. Even civilized men today sometimes enter tain a superstitious regard for small stones and pebbles of peculiar shape or color and carry them about as charms. The Greeks and Asiatics used stones, beads and crystals primarily as amu lets and cut devices on them to en hance their magical power. The use of such stones as seals was secondary and may at first have been for sacred purposes only. When a primitive peo ple first find gold they value It only for its supposed magic and wear nug gets of it strung with beads. Rheumatic Paint Relieved.
