A Vnlimbla Hint to Kvory Fnthor mid .Mother. Thcro nro two kinds of babies In tho world; tho kind who havo too little nour ishment nnd tho kind who huvo too much.

A liufTnlo mother a short time ago who despaired of the life of her babe was so delighted with the results from giving the child thesu tablets that she went be fore the notary public of Krlo Co., N. Y., and made tho following nflldavlt: Gentlemen: Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets wero recommended to mo for my two months old baby, which was sick nnd puny nnd the doctors said was suffering from Indigestion. I took tho child to the hospital, but there found no relief. A friend mentioned the Stuart Tablets and I procured u box from my druggist nnd used only tho large sweet lozenges In tho box and was delighted to find they wero Just tho thing for my baby. I feel Justlllcd In saying that Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets saved my child's life. Mrs. W. T. Dethlopf. Subscribed nnd sworn to before me this 12th day of April, 1M7.

A Prairie Drama, iNaturo has arranged the stage on which this llttlo human drama with tho heart throb hi It, Is to be played. Nnture Is particular nbout having things right when the full responsibility of scene shifting, curtain-rnlslug and general-man-using Is laid on her shoulders. It Is a one-act pluy and tho stage uppolntmont Is perfect. Tho sun Is fnr enough west to bring out tho misty blue hills of tho back ground, nnd to lend to Held and home stead a silence and brooding; an innocent whlto cloud comes bashfully creeping up, to bo chased and caught by tho laggurd beams, and sent on warm and blushing with the heat of their caress; tho strag gling path, made by the cattle going often to quench their thirst In the mlmlo lako below the bill, by some skillful arrange ment takes on tho nppcaranco or a high way that might lead to some tar-off happy hunting ground; there Is tho sounds of Insects buzzing, tho distant song of a bird, tho forlorn call of n strayed-away chicken. There aro but two actors, and these two have been a long time preparing. One Is tho niece of Judge IlertoUe, who, with his aristocratic Freiich-Cnnadlait wife, Is In tho front room of tho farm house to the left; the other Is Ruth Platte, the settler's daughter. Ruth, who opened her eyes on spreading prarles nnd wide stretches of blue sky, who can turn a furrow as straight as u bird's course, who can ride und row and shoot;Huth with tho rose bloom on her freckled face, and tho care less grace of a handsome boy In every movement,. She comes on, a pall of milk In her right hand, a sun-bonnet tied under her chin, "So you are his cousin Hcrmolnc," sho says, In answer to the other's opening re marks. "Well, this beats the Dutch! Come In on the boat to-day, 1 suppose?" Sho puts down the pall. If any one less perfect than natire were attending to nc cent and expression, It might be said that Ruth evinced a leek of trepidation, show ed too little surprise. "I've heard him speak of you heaps of times. We ought to shake, but I've been doing rough work" with an Indulgent glunce at her brown, suppio lingers. " ou say you came to see me?" "Yes. Will yon understand me If I talk to you, I wonder? Wo nro strangers to each other, but women speak one common langungo when they discuss certain things." She Is cultured and fair. Scorn Is on her fnce, but the anger In her dark eyes Is more than half envy of the youth and beauty of this lowly sister of tho plains. "i want to talk to you of Hon aid." "Strangers! Now look here, has Ron never told you about me?" "Of course he has. How else would I learn of your friendship for each other7" They look at each other, a faint blush touches Hermclno's face. "Why we're engaged to be married him and me. Didn't he tell you?" "Listen, Ruth," and the gloved hand of ono grasped the bare hand of the other. "You mustn't expect Ronald to act a fool's part In to weighty a matter as choosing a wife." Ruth takes off tho sun-bonnet and hangs It on her nrm, nnd unfastens tho brooch holding her dress together at the throat. "So hot!" she says. Then at the other stamps her foot Impatiently. "You think he'd be nctln' the fool's part If he married me, eh? I told him I wasn't half good enough for him, but laws! nothing could make him seo It that way. I tried to make him quit, 'pon my word I did, but he was just bent on going on loving mo as hard as ho could." Sho dors not blush; a certain soft dig nity comes on her. Ruth Is no more ashamed nor afrold of love than sho Is of any other of nature's good and perlet gifts. "You drove over?" "Yes; my undo and aunt wished to see his ranch, and I wished to see you. It !s a pleasure trip. We start back to-morrow or the next day. I want" She pauses, end Ruth comes to her res cue. "You want " "I want you to set Ronald free." It is very still. The sun slips out of sight, the crimson cloud Is reinforced by others. Humiliation 13 new to the woman of tho world; it awakens a fury of cruelty In her, a desire to hurt thli swtet-faced, childish thing with something brighter than laughter or, her parted lips. Tho life nnd happiness radiating from her Is too subtle and too strong. "Give up Ronald," cries Hermolne, and puts out her hnnds grasplngly. Send him away nyke him forget vou! -Make him!" It has ueen tame playing all this while. Naturo now begins to wake up her actors and hurry on the denoument. "There ain't a bit of use," says Ruth earnestly. "He's been away now for six months, and it hasn't changed things a particle. I recon we ain't of the forget ting kind." "And do you Imagine that he thinks of you as you do of him? That with many beautiful women about him, he carries always your memory? Oh, but we women are all fools fools fools! Ruth Platte. ho has forgotton all about you." Sho shakes the girl backward and forward. "Ho made love to you, poor child, because ho had nothing better to do. He will never marry you, neve.." "He hasn't forgotten," says tho coun try gill, gently. "How do you know? You enn put no dependence In what he writes." "Ho doesn't write." UVhai;?" r-pmlting eagerly forward "Ddesn't answer your letters?" "I never write nny. He had to go back East; ho had to bo gone six months. 'You'll write to mo every day,' says he; no,' says I. 'I won't write to you at all. You must go off an' try your level best to forget all about this hummer and mo take as long ns you like for It then, when you get ready to come back, If ever you do,' says I, 'why come and we'll eeo who has been the loving'st and thought fulest.' " Hcimolne laughs. "O, the folly of two children playing at love." "Wo weren't playing, we were In ear nest." Ruth rises to her part now. "He didn't need a scrawl from me he knew I loved Mm; 1 didn't need one from him I knew that no woman no woman," softly, "could tnko my place in Ronald'c heart." "Rut how do you know?" Impatiently. "Why, when a girl loves a mnn as I love him she knows when he changes. There may be a thousand miles between them, but she knows. I haven't seo tho scratch of a pen but my heart has been calling out to him, 'Ron., I ain't forgotten!' and his heart has answered every time, 'No more am I!' He'll bo back before long, an' then" "He's back row; he ramo with us. His father thinks he Is to marry a woman who is fitted to glvo him companionship und ambitious desires." "That's you. Well, I ain't fitted to give him much of anything worth speaking ubout, but say "Ruth pauses to let tho prldo dlo out of her tender eyes, "you can offer him anything you like anything an' ho'll come straight to me when all's done and said. I can't explain It. Some things are so curious, there ain't uny way of working them out, and yet they're as true ns fie everlastln' hills. I I'm sorry for you," For the first time her eyes go down a confusion spreads over her fuco. "It must be" she pauses for a word strong enough "devilish hard lines!" 8ha nods her brown head Blowly. "Will you go out of -my sight?" pants Hermolne. "You make me hate you so." Without a word Ruth lifts her pall ana goes forward, and to tho jealous eyes of tho other, the gold of God's sunset follow her, rests on her, makes a halo about her head and a radiant path for her feet. "Oh, that last thrust! In her Innocence she struck me in the heart." mutters tho niece of Judge Ilertollo. Then she, too, goes slowly oft the Btage, Just as naturo over tho soft gloom of the early night swings out tier tender brilliant lights. Jean Ulewltt. AVOCA.

He want ed to know where Secretary Lyman J. Gage could be found; his business with the chief of the treasury was pressing and Important. It wns given him, and awny the mam from the Lako City scurried. He was doomed to dis appointment, for on Inquiry the sad news was related that Mr. Gage had taken a revenue cutter and sailed down tho Potomac. Thirty minutes later the Chlcagoan was at the foot of Seventh street, bar gaining with the owner of a modest skill to row him Alexandrlaward. AVhen opposite tho docks of that an cient and hlftorlc city the "skipper" sung out that the revenue cutter was In sight and steaming toward them at a lively pace. "Get right in the channel and row for the cutter as hard ns you can," sung out the solitary passenger. "Hut she'll run us down and drown us," quoth tho boatman. "I want to live a few yaars longer, anil have a fancy for 'burial on dry land." "Do as I tell you, and I'll add $10 to your feet. Mr. Gage Is my friend, nnd he'll never let us bo run down. AVhcro is your nerve, man!" The officer In charge of the govern ment boat was astounded to see a small skiff bear right down on Uncle Sam's craft cnrrylnff a member of President McKlnley's cabinet. Personally, he would have liked to sink tho Impudent fellows in the row boat, but he had to give heed to the frantic shouts and waving handkerchief of a supposed lu natic, who wanted to stop tho cutter.
