(From the Home Journal, New York. Reprinted b» Special PeruLiuioa.) A". is INEXPLICABLE instinct had grounds direct to Ted's library door, where he stood, cap in hand, a decently slean, solemn-faced boy of 12, with a little grizzly mop of a dog wriggling apologetically at his heels. "His name's Tatters, an' he kin sit up an' dance an' sing," said Jimmy. Whereupon Tatters "sat up" and peered anxiously through the ragged dun-colored fringe that'1 veiled his bright black eyes. For the rest he was the most dejected, forlorn little crea ture that ever begged his way through a hard and thankless world. ''What are you two doing here?" Ted demanded, coldly. "Please, sir, won't you take 'im in?" Jimmy entreated. "The Home's sendin' me to Kansas an' the man what's hired me won't take Tatters. You kin have 'im fer a dollar." "But I don't want him," Ted an swered, heartlessly at which Tatters dropped "his smudgy paws limply ana turned to Jimmy, with a look of hope less appeal which said, as plain as hu man speech could do: "Why is the hand of every man turned against me "He eats so little you'd never miss it," Jimmy explained, persuasively. "Tatters promised, mutely, to eat still less if Ted would take him, and Ted's heart wasn't proof against that last appeal. He patted the little towsled head good-naturedly and assured him that he should have abundant food and a roof to shelter him as long as he behaved in a fit and proper manner. I have never owned a dog in my life, he explained, deprecatingly, "but I'll take Tatters and do the best I can for him." The leave-taking consumed half a minute. It was plain that the dog suf fered most acutely but he had been made to understand that it was all part of the inexplicable fate that had branded him as a vagrant. When the door closed behind Jimmy he ran about from window to window, till he found the one overlooking the avenue where he sat very still, watching the lessen ing figure of his late master until Ms breath blurred the pane hopelessly then he whined softly until Ted be thought himself of his promise and carried him out to be bountifully fed and groomed after the manner befit ting his adoption. Shorn of his long disguise—the grime and soot of plebeian association—he was a handsome dog with a silver-gray coat, a little black dust-brush of a tail, a curly, shapely head, and the kindest eyes ever set in a canine face, deep, midnight black, shot with coppery lights that gave him a look of human intelligence. The longer Ted looked at that winning little face, the longer he wanted to look it was so wise, so ten der, so impressibly grave. "Tatters," said Ted, putting his hand under the silky uplifted chin, "I'm go ing to be very good to you always, and in return I want you to be very good to some one else. Come, let us go and see her, and you'll know why." She sat on a couch beside a sunny window, her hands folded idly over an open book, her eyes fixed unseemingly on luminous space. Ted affected not to notice the deathlike transparency of the flower-like face he proceeded cheerfully to introduce Tatters to his new mistress, and Tatters "sat up'* very prettily until he was lured by the look in Nadine's eyes to move a step closer and put his paws on her knees. "What a dear little fellow," she said languidly, taking his face between her thin hands and looking down into his dark, beautiful eyes. "I never thought I should like a dog but this one looks almost human. Is he really mine? Oh, thank you, Ted." For the first time in •many weeks she smiled genuinely, and was interested. Tatters puzzled his brain sorely about Nadine's inactivity, and after patient endeavor to rouse her, he went to Ted for an explanation. And it seemed so human to tell this faithful little friend what was wearing out his own heart. "The doctor gave her trouble a long, hard name, Tatters," said he, "and he thinks there's one chance in a hun dred that she may be cured but I know better. She's very young, barely 22, but sorrow has aged her more in a single hour than a whole lifetime of joy could have done. No, she doesn't rightly belong to us, but she came to ns long ago when she was a little girl, and there never was a time when I didn't love her more than anyone else in the wide world. She was always very good and sweet to me and such a happy, bright little girl, until she met Dion. He was a fine fellow, too, but not quite good enough for Nadine. He was very f6nd of her, and she was hap pier still until the other woman came. Such a woman, Tatters! as beautiful as an angel—you couldn't blame him if you could see her. Nadine didn't blame bim, either, but it brok«.„her heart. They say people sometimesout Iive even that trouble, but it isn't true, not with a nature like hers. If you could only help her to forget, just for little while, Tatters, I'd love you as long as 1 live.'* 1 -r-t •^mm§mm V\, xl'- helpitut th'ougitt ache? burdens ot hearts- that encouraging, cheering i-t r*" I sifjj Ted felped evade the dreadedi -cli max by reading all the newspapers carefully fiVf Tedl heard a man's coaxing voice say: "Hello, my beauty!

"Dion, if it should be trufe! I am afraid to die with an unconfessedi lie on my soul. It was all my fault that she left you. I want' ed you to believe Nadine unfaithful. You'll forgive me, Dion, won't you. It was because I loved you so—and she couldn't have caredione hundredth part as much as I do. You loved her, didn't you, Dion? Yes, I knew, but I tried to forget. If I should die you will marry her. Dion, I love you so that I wish only for your happiness. "But I will not die, Dion, I will not!" the young voice trailed off in half a sob, then woke again very faint and tremu lous, like the echo of distant music. "How dlark it has grown!" it mur mured. "Have they left us alone at last, Dion? Come closer, I cannot see you—" There was no more 60und or motion from the darkened pallet the long lashes fluttered down andi lay like rays of darkness on driven snow, and' the childish lips parted in a faint, sweet smile upon which death had set his holy seal as if God1 hadi forgiven her guilty soul.

The' others could' not well be spared from the busy round of social life, so Ted went with his mother and Nadine. The world lay shrouded in white vestments through which the strain plowed a narrow track bearing them farther and farther from their-ac customed scenes. Tatters sat in Na djue's window looking'wistfully out of the window at the flying panorama of skeleton trees and hedges till the, train stopped at a wayside station. Ted took him out for a little, walk, and he scudded, along the narrow path sniffing the frosty air delightedly, and present ly disappeared under the car wheels, to be caught up by someone on the op posite side. A .. and weary beside that radiant vision. Ted looked into her face and forgot everything but the thought that. Na ne must not see them. He got pos si ssion of Tatters and walked the length of the train and back before he iredtosonfront NadSne, andithe train llled off witha few preliminary shocks v\ hen he swung 'aboard, the smoking ir. He sat staring dully before him, itil he was recalled to a realization of things tangible by a keen sense* of im nding'danger There was a shriek of escaping steam, a sickening crunch of wheels, an explo sive :crSsh, then he was seized by some blind force and flung down amid the debris of a wreck. Tatter's doleful lit tle Whine recalled Ted's scattered senses. He woke to find himself lying in a poor little roadBidle hut, where they had. carried the dead and wound ed. Dion's wife lay not an arm's length, from his couch, and beside him sat Nadine unhurt. "It is not1 fatal?" Dion askedi in husky whisper. The doctor*moved aVvay very softly, but the dyingwoman read the bitter truth in his eyes, and1 shivered with mortal terror. "Dying! she cried, incredulously, "Oh, no. It simply isn't possible! it can't be why should11 be chosen when so many others don't care to live! Oh, no, not I life is far too sweet to die!" everywhere! Stately bride roses under a fringed canopy of maiden hair fern, long-stemmed beauties, queens of hearts in such lavish con fusion that Tatters wasobligedito walk very circumspectly through the maze of blossoming stuff to the window where Ted stood with folded1 hands, breast high, to a rose bower. There were .white rose petals on the sidewalk leading to the front entry and three little urchins were chattering de lightedly over their trophies of an easy conquest. Tatters found a little bare space on the window and looked out too, but failed to discover anything of signal importance. So he frisked about until Tedi roused himself and took the fluffy little head between his palms and 'smiled with the pathetic cheerfulneu of complete renunciation. "All the fuss and flurry is over a* last, Tatters," he said, "andi now we've go$ to take life in hand and make some* thing out of it. We shall be very happy, too—not quite as happy as Nadine and Dion, perhaps still you have me and I have my work. Nadine? Well, Tatters, she doesn't need either of us now.** Arlatole for Cnts and Brnlses. For wounds of all kinds, aristole it one of the best remedies now in use. jit. is very speedy in its results, closing the blood vessels and thus preventing inflammation'. It is sold in the form pf a powder, and- can be purchased in small.quantities. A very little applied to the wound is all that is necessary. Aristole being somewhat expensive, listerine, costing much less, is often used with good results. But the lat ter is- an-antiseptic only, and if the cut is a severe one aristole should, be applied immediately. No salve or emol lient will then be found- necessary, and the wouncb will heal very rapidly.—La dies' World. True. "This is a hard world," said the de spondent one. "Well, look at the'way it's been jumped on," replied the other.—N. Y. World. Irili Discarded Dreiuei for Charity..

Mr. Jas. Smaller, a farmer living near GHby, has perfected' an attachment which can be put on any harvesting ma chine reel and will enable a man to cut and save grain which can be cut with a mowing machine without half the attend ant trouble and labor. It can be' at tached or removed In 15 minutes and saves its costs In two hours' work this year. It is of special benefit this year, but is very useful any year in ordinary grain. Many farmers here who have been mowing their grain or cutting It with a self rake reaper have abandoned both methods and are using Smaller's reel at tachment with great success. "Jag: Wagons" Busy. The saloon men who operate "jag wag ons" from their Moorhead shops are be ing roundly roasted for their strict at tention to the matter of securing patrons. Since the farmers have, been visiting the agricultural college and experimental sta tion In large numbers each day the wagons have been run to the college grounds, two miles north of Fargo, where the drivers were instructed to wait until the sessions were over In order to secure a load of patrons. The college authorities have protested, ana unless the "jag wag ons" are kept In a specified territory It Is likely that efforts will be made to keep them In Minnesota entirely. Neatly Finished.

Hanscom, of the United States land office, and attended by Miss Grace Glbbs, of Edmor, Mich., and Miss Llda Mansfield as bridesmaids and Miss Edna Boucher, of Bismarck, maid of honor. A Duel. A terrible duel with pitchforks took place in Emmons county between two Russian farmers, which resulted in the death of both men. It seems that there were no eye-wit nesses, and the bodies of the men were found some time later by persons passing through tho hayfleld where the tragedy occurred. One of the contestants lived long enough to crawl i.pon a cock of hay be fore he expired and evidences were found that the struggle between the men had been of a fearful nature. Dispersing The Indians at Fort Yates are dispers ing after their big celebration. About 5,000 of them put on paint and feathers and engaged In a sham battle after the old time Indian style. As is cutomary, they gave away fine presents. Among them was a magnificent elk tooth dress to the agent's wife, probably worth $300. News in Brief. Five cases of typhoid fever at St. Thomas are attributed to bad drinking water. The 5,000 brook trout placed in Spring Creek in Ransom county appear to be do lng nicely. C. A. Lounsberry says: "Taken as a whole, there will not be 25 per cent of an ordinary crop. North Dakota will not produce this year 20,000,000 'bushels of wheat.

"What's in a name?" asked Shakes peare. Everything, may be answered, and no one: has made the answer more plain to the ordinary mortal than Booker T. Wash ington, the noted colored orator, says the Shicago Times-Herald. While lecturing in Omaha last winter he paused ,in the midst his remarks and asked: "How many negro boys in Omaha are learning a mechanical trade?" And from the vast audience came the re- Plj'Not one." Then Mr. Washington proceeded to tell :he negro boys what they should do. The }ld colored man with his brush and pail of whitewash once made a good living. But he was a whitewasher." The first thing he knew a white man came along with an assortment of brushes and several colors of wash under fancy names. The white man called himself an "interior decorator," ind the old colored man's job was gone for sver. "You negro boys," continued Mr. Wash ington, "must become interior decorators, for the whitewashing job is done." TAKING THE CENSUS. An Enumerator Meets with One Woman Who Didn't Withhold Any of the Details. "Oh, yes, I know you are the census man. Warm day, take a seat. I've gotten all the facts for you. My husband, John Moore, is 40 I am 32 we nave seven children they are all well now." "But—" put in the census man, relates the Pittsburgh Chronicle. /'Yes, yeB you needn't ask me any ques tions. I telling you fast as I can. Tommy, our oldest boy, had the measles when he was three. He first began to walk when he was eight months old and the day after he was ten months old he could walk clear around the room without holding on to anything. He fell down the stairs when he was four years three months and thirteen days old, but it didn't hurt him any, and he liked ice cream from the first time he ever tasted it. I can't get him to eat gravy, but he had his first piece of steak when, he was 15 months old. Johnnie, the next fo the oldest—" "Madam, stop, stop," cried the enumera tor, "answer my questions. I don't want to know any more about your children." And then the woman got angry and the census taker also lost his temper-and left. Family Ties Exhausted. At one of the great department stores the other day a young man was indulging in airy persiflage with the pretty shop girl behind the counter while waiting for nis change. "What a wonderful place you have here! he said. "What do you sell?" "Everything," was the reply. "Every thing?" was the incredulous comment "Oh, you can, eh?" commented the preten tious Alexander. "Well, let me look at some family ties." Without remark, but with demure countenance, the girl went away, but in a moment returned and said: "I am sorry, but the manager tells me that we are just out of family ties, owing to the great demand.' Perhaps you'd like to look at some family jars?" The young man de cided, however, that the latter was an un desirable commodity, and he would have none of it.—N. Y. Tribune. He Got Posted. It was an open car. A man of years and sedateness sat next to a young man who was consulting a pocket dictionary. By and by, and without any premonitory symp toms, the sedate man said: "It's in here -I was looking over one of them books yesterday, and I picked out the very words." "What do you refer to?" asked the young man. "To what a woman up my way called me when I asked her to marry me." "And what was it?" "A concave cataleptic semi-annual old idiot. At first I didn't exactly know whether she meant to say yes or turn me down, but after looking in-the dictionary I made up my mind that she was not for me. Mighty handy, those dictionaries are, when pou get stuck on a hard word, eh?"—Wash ington Post. She'd Do It. Crash! There came the sound of falling dishes from the kitchen. The cook appeared at the dining-room door. "Plaze, mum," she said, "the whole av your besht dinner set is broken fwhoile Oi wuz washin' it!" The housewife wept.

Well, I'm mighty glad to hear it. It's about time the poor little critter had some rest.1 you what it is, if Mandy had washed ito head with CUTICOBA. SOAP first-off, and put on somevf?IM- Ointment when her baby's head began to get crusted, she'd have saved herself heaps of tronble, and the poor little^ kid would have been a different being. Think of the days and nights Randy's walked the floor with that baby. I ain't got no kind of patience with people that has to be tol about a thing a hundred times before they begin to believe in the virtue of it. Now, I told Mandy more'n three weeks ago about CUTICUHA SOAP, and she knew jolfc as as you do, Liz, that we'd used it here going on five years or more, and that none of our fainUyeve*' had a pimple, or any kind of irritation of the skin since we first begun using it. She was that con trary that I eould n't get her to try it on her babyt even though I offered to give her a cake of tho soap and some of the ointment from our box. But now she comes here about every day to thank me. Fact is, the youngster's head is as clean as a whistle, and her skin is Just as pretty as you ever see on any baby." I Ot"**".
