was noted for prompt decisions and an

socially, he was a power. For three

Inp. No one knew of any sear on his
conscience. Business men are not
supposed to have such appurtenances.
Often it is railed indipi lion, but Col.
Everurd Newsome dirl Hot mi take it
and dose it. Me faced it and kept
silent.
This morning several friend* had
been in. talking of their summer out
ings and business at one and the same
time. One went east because his wife
must have sea-bathing, and one went
north because his oh) father had hay
fever in \upust. Country house* weri
open and everyone preparing for a
flitting. Invitations here and there
were plentiful. He could have gone to
a dozen house parties, camping out
to the Canadian lakes and the Adiron
dack camps. Hut the sear on the 0010
riel's conscience was more In evldenei
than usual. It was almost an ojiei
wound of late, for he could not forget
the past.
While he Idly figured on a scrap of
paper, alone in his oilier, the ■' rem
door of the hank a- pn-hed open and
a young girl walked in. She had th*
air of never having been In snob a
place before, but of lacking no emir
tge. Her dress wa plain enough, a
spotless white muslin, such as a young

She amazed him by replying;
“So I thought, papa, bin he heard

(if course I had to tell him that.”
"Of course,” echoed the colonel, mis
erably.
“Rut when he told me how rich you
were—ami that you were alone—l
thought I would come.”
“What would you like to have me do
for you?”
“1 want to be something or some

His own old ambition.s. How she
stung him!
“You should have been a hoy—”

“Why?”
She flashed on him a glance he did
not like.
“I would never have forgiven you
for all of it.”
He gasped.
“Can you forgive me now?”
“1 can better understand mamma
now. She has always forgiven you.”
The colonel put his head down in
his hands. *
“Eva, you are only I*l, T was only 20,
your mother not much older than are
you. Can you understand? Your
grand fa then goaded me, taunted me,
insulted me at every turn after the
elopement, and just because 1 was
poor. Now things are different, you
see. Do you know that he pot that
divoree for her partly on the grounds
of non-support? That maddened me.
Hut I have educated you and taken
care of you ever since 1 had a dollar,
and voluntarily."
Eva rose and placed her hands on
his shoulder.
“Vou know prandpa and you know
mamma. She pives up to every one
she loves. And I understand you, be

“So you understand and do not

"And you are so alone.”
Me was tremblinp also.
"1 cannot ask you to leave your

“She would not —she docs not

“What would you have me do for

"For me? 1 came to ask you to let

“You cannot go alone."

THE AMERICAN MONTHLY REVIEW OF REVIEWS
is commended by Statesmen, Professional men and thousands of
others prominent in the world’s activities, for its fine discrimi
nation in sifting the actual news from conflicting report and the presen
tation of current events in their just proportion They comment on its
freedom from daily-paper sensationalism. All men and women who
want to know what the world is doing find it an intellectual necessity,
to judge from the letters received from hundreds Its editorials are
comprehensive, and labor saving to the busy man or woman Its
timely contributions on important topics are by the best-informed
writers. Its reviews of other magazines give the best of their best
work. It is profusely illustrated.
These letters will enable all thoughtful men and women to judge
of its value to them:

CHINAMAN GAVE UP HIS SEAT.

mnlneil Senfed.
A rolumbia avenue car. with a good
crowd aboard, was wending its way
ii)) Ninth street late one Saturday
evening. Only a few of the gentler
sex were on the car and these had
seats. Among the seated passengers
were two severe-looking clergymen,
several prosperous business men and
n docile Chinaman who carried a large
bundle on his knees.
At Arch street a middle-aged woman
who carried a small valise got on the
car. It jolted along and the slender,
tired-looking woman glanced around
appealingly for a seat. She stood elo;
to where the two ministers sat and
her face wore an expression of paii
as the car rattled along and sin
clutched nervously at the hnnd-strat
The Chinaman rose from his seat, ami
holding his heavy bundle with his ief
hand, tapped the woman with hi;
right hand gently and motioned he
to the seat he had vacated. She ac
cepted the favor with a smile and •
gracious “Thimk yon, sir.”
All the men seated in the ear stared
at each other as if each of them hm
received a rebuke.
“That Chinee is all right," remarked
the conductor, according to the Phil
adelphia Record. ‘‘He’s a good sam
ple of those supposed barbarians we
are endeavoring so hard to civilize."
HE WANTED A BEAR.

“The sickest man I ever took into
the woods," said an Adirondack
guide, near North Creek, relates tin
New York Times, "was a lawyer who
came in from Buffalo last fall to kill
a bear, lie said he was going to kill
one if it took all season. He wanted
a rug of his own killing for his of
fice. He staid in the woods three
weeks, and wouldn't look at deer or
small game. Finally he had to go
home He sent his stuff out to the
railroad by team, and walked out
himself, saying that would be hi s
last chance at a bear.
“Sure enough, he went around a llg
rock and met a bear face to face in
the trail. He forgot what he wu;
after, forgot he had been hunting
three weeks for this very animal, foi
got that he wanted a rug for his of
fice, and even forgot that he had a
gun. He turned and sprinted in tin
direction from which lie came till it
all came over him that that bear was
just what lie wanted. Then ht
• topped, went hack and saw from the
trucks that the bear had gone a
good deal faster than he did, and iu
tlu- opposite direction."
Science mill S|iort,
We would like to take some of
these mosquito fearing gentlemen
with u- on some of our squirrel hunt
ing expeditions along the I’aniunky
river and let them see and feel what
every huntsman endures while en
gaged in this spurt, says the South
ern Clinic. It is a fact that at times
in these river bottoms the mosquitoes
are so thick that they are unendur
able, and when a fellow goes to aim
at a squirrel he has to fight them
off with Ids gun barrel before he can
see the squirrel. We are not joking
ns to the number of bites that the
huntsman suffers from, and we are se
rious when we say that the idea of
malaria being dependent solely upon
the bites of these insects sounds fool
ish to men who have observed what
we have in thousands of eases.

Centlrmrn ; Being entirely cured of deafness, thanks to your treatment, I will now give you
• full history of my case, to be used at your discretion.
About five years ago my right ear began to sing, and this kept on getting worse, until I lost
my hearing in this ear entirely.
I underwent a treatment for catarrh, for three months, without any success, consulted * num
ber of physicians, among others, the most eminent ear specialist of this city, who told me that
only an operation could help me, and even that only temporarily, that the head noises would
then cease, but the hearing in the affected ear would be lost forever.
I then saw your advertisement accidentally in a New York paper, and ordered your treat
ment. After I had used it only a few days according to your directions, the noises ceased, and
to-day, after five weeks, my hearing in the diseased ear has been entirely restored. 1 thank yot*
