I The Times: Daily Short Story, j
Miss Lavaleite
. f , ; Original ,
A woman never forgets a lover; a
man may fargftt the woman be has
loved. , .
During the civil war Lieutenant Law
rence Nolan, aid-de-camp to a general
of brigade, enc&nipetl in Virginia on
the grounds of a manor house belong
ing to a f auilir named Lavaiette. The
owner of the plantation and his sons
were with the Confederate army, but
Lis wife and daughter, Rosalind, wero
at home. The women, though their
hearts were with the southern cause
and especially with the father and his
6ons at the front had the. good sense
to treat the Union officers who came to
the house courteously. By this means
they insured protection for themselves
and their property. The command to
which Nolan was attached remained in
camp on the Lavalette plantation for
(several months, and, among other of
ficers, he was a frequent visitor at the
manor house. Love, which knows no
barrier, Ignored the fact that Rosalind
Lavalette was a rebel and Lawrence
Nolan tin invader of the homes of
herself and the southern people.
It was iu the sweet summer time,
and life had In It for the youug people
far more of. zest than either had
known before. The ring of the bugle
and the beat of the drum were heard
In the land, uniformed men were com
ing and going, the air was laden with
strains from military bauds, while o
casionally there came from a distance
the booming of cannon. Amid ail this
the young officer, snatching occasional
moments, when off duty, pleaded his
cause. Nothing but principle stood in
the way of a favorable reply. The girl
could not bear to give herself to an
enemy of her country.
When the brigade moved, Nolan had
only time to ride to the manor house
and bid adieu to the girl he loved.
Cutting a button from his sleeve, he
gave it to her as o souvenir and told
her to keep it till he should call for it.
"When peace comes," he said, "I will
como to ask again for the word I
would be so glad to hear now. Till
tL en good by."
He asked for a parting kiss, but she
refused him. "now could I look my
dear father In the face," she said,
"when he returns If I had been kissed
by a Yankee?" Nolan sighed and,
mounting, rode away.
When the Union army left the Lava
lette plantation the place at once 6onk
Into its accustomed quiescence. There
was nothing but the waving trees, the
hum of Insects, the songs of birds. Not
again did any part of either the Union
or Confederate armies visit It. Rosa
lind Lavalette spent her time comfort
ing her mother for a son and brother
wia had been killed in a skirmish with
the brigade that had been encamped
on the plantation. Lawrence Nolan

121 Olo Street.
We want to tell you the history of Mrs. Heaney's ranpe, for it is typical of the good service
riven by the Quaker Manges nil over New England. , ,
in Juno 1SS5. Mrs. lleaney bought a Quaker Range for $13.00 and in twenty-one years
' -of constant uso it has only cost her $3.50 for grates mid linings. This makes her total cost for
twenty-one years, $51.50 an average of only $2.45 a yearless than 5c a week and less than ouo
This' is pretty cheap for a first class range, isn't it! but there's more of the story to follow.
At the end of twenty-one years, Mrs, Heaney's range was in such good condition, that it
was worth $25.00 and in addition to that she was the winner in one of our recent "Oldest Quaker
llaiifC Contests'receiving in exchange for her old range, a new Quaker M-orth $75.00.
Therefore after using a Quaker Range for twenty-one years, Mrs. Itcaney is now the
owner of a brand. new Quaker the finest in the line and is actually $24.50 to the good.

C. W. Avcrill & Company, 18 North Main St., Bam, Vt.
I gave tbe'order in the name of his gen
eral to send ; the body to the mother
and sister, and, though he believed that
his heart would remain forever where
he had bestowed it, bo gave up all
hope that Rosalind would ever be his
wife. ;
When peace came several years lat
er the episode on the Lavalette planta
tion had become p. pleasant dream to
Nolan. lie was even then but twenty
two, and his Impressions were the. eva
nescent impressions of youth. He had
had several other later affairs during
the war, and these had tended to wear
upon the effect of the first. He left
the army and began the study of a
profession. Occasionally he would be
seized with a deire to go south and
seek Miss Lavalette, but he feared that
If she would not listen to his suit
before his corps had killed her brother
she would not listen to him after that
distressing event. He had not the
nerve to ask the hand of one whose
hospitality had been thus repaid. lie
must study his profession for several
years and even after acquiring It must
wait patiently for an Income. And so
the matter of his first love gradually
slipped away from him. '
Forty years passed. Nolan, who had
becomo prominent, in his profession,
was elected to congress. One evening
soon after his arrlvat at the capital he
was Introduced to a white haired wom
an of refined appearance and with a
southern accent. ' '
"We have met before," she said.
"When? Where?" .
"During the civil war, In the south."
Nolan looked at her Inquiringly.
"That was a long while ago," he said.
"Infleed It was. but I have remem
bered you, long though It Is."
"You can't be the girl who nursed
me when I was wounded?"
"No. You were perfectly well when
I knew you."
"Nor the girl I ''met at .Richmond at
the close of the 5 war-thc oj over
whoso home I stood guard one night?"
"Nor that one either.. You gave me
a keepsake' at parting. I have it yet"
"Oh, I know you. I remember well
that evening in your garden at Charles
ton when I gave you a rose and you
raid you would keep It as long as you
lived."
The lady 8mjled It was a very sad
smile. . , .,,-,
"Guess agin."
"I give it up," said .Nolan, seeing that
ho was continually getting deeper Into
the mire. The lady moved some lace
about her neck and showed an army
button that formed the head of a stick
fin. .
"Do you remember giving me that
button?"
Two men approached. .
"Miss Lavalette," said a voice, "per
mit me to Introduce my friend, Colo
nel R."
"Lavalette?" mused Nolan, moving
on, with- a troubled brow. "Who the
deuce wag Miss Lavalette?"

FORECAST OF FASHION,
Taffdta Jabot and Ties on Smart
Coata Parla Haven Over New Color,
A curious feature of the tailor made
coats of the moment is the taffeta tie,
or jabot, that accompanies so many of
thern, which is either arranged In a
loose bow or tied sailor fashion. A
note of color in this way Is Introduced
la an otherwise' somber costume.
Taris Is raving ove'r a new color
which Is a kind of compromise between
pomegranate and old rose. This lovely
shade has been reproduced la silk,
- , lack iitofsn.
tioth. velvet and In every kind of trim
ming the Ingenuity of the manufac
turer can devise.
Instead of a cluster of funereal black
feathers on a black bat, we have this
season a trio of feathers converging
from a point at the back of the hat in
black, white and empire green.
Velvet coats trimmed with fur band,
collar and cuffs are worn with cloth
skirts. It is a fashion that should se
cure popularity, Inasmuch as out of
one's store of half worn fur there may
be rescued enough good pelt to trim
In this fashion.
Lace ruffles form almost nil of the
visible part of the stunning blouse pic
tured. The bretelles and heading to
the flounces are of old fashioned puffed
silk. The girdle Is of the silk, fasten
ed with four handsome buttons.

F. R. Northrop, Who Is at Alva, Fla.
We loft Kew York at 3:45 p. m.,
November 133. The "City of Columbus"
of theSavanriah line left the dock just
ten minutes ahead of us. 1 took a snap
'shot of her as she left the pier, -
We reached Chai liwtim, our first stop,
at 11 o'clock last evening, November 15,
and stayed there until noon today. We
visited some of the old historic places
of the city, among them St. .Philip's
church, in the yard of which J. C. Cal
houn ;as buried. We went into the
yard r ana' to the spot where there ' is a
large monument erected to his memory.
From there to the mtofliee, directly in
front of which stand old St. Michael's
church, in which are pews which George
Washington, Robert I-ee, ami many other
famous men of that day used. VVe vis
ited the old market place, where they
used to sell slaves. The building is now
need as a meat and vegetables market.
We are now getting far enough South
to notice quite a change in the tempera
ture. ,
.,-.'.
We arrived at ' ..Jacksonville (1,150
mile from Bnrre) at 0 o'clnck thin morn
ing and came directly to the hotel, after
which we took the electrics out to the
Ostrich farm. The ears mn every eight
minutes from the city, requiring tliteen
minutes each way. The furnii is. -the
terminal of. tnis line, and it in naturally
expected that you have, come to visit
the farm and it attractions, which are
varied and interest inj?. Upon entering
the ofiico and show room combined, you
find an elegant, display of feather good,
egg, souvenirs, etc. At the ritfl't as
you enter the farm is the menagerie,
consisting of several species of the mon
key, wild cat and raccoon. At the. left
is tli otrich enclosure, where the birds
ran be seen in all their glory. These,
together with the pen of sea liona, make
one of the many attractions of this beau
tiful cityi

Leaving Jacksonville on the elegant
steamer, "City of .Jacksonville," our trip
up the St. John's river pave u an op
portunity to ee much that wa inter
esting and beautiful. Our first stop wa
at Pulatka. 75 miles south of Jackson
villeat this point we retired, reset
ting that diirknes shut out the view.
On arising in the morning we were sur
prised to find that v had left far be
hind the w ire river and were slowly pick
ing our way along the cTiannel, so nar
row that we could almost touch the
bank and overhanging trees on cither
side. Here we got our first sight of
the alligators as they lay on the bank
basking in the morning sun. It was
here also we Paw the first orange grove
and with the sunlight resting upon them
it made a beautiful picture.
The country in general as' far as the
eye can reach, is covered wkh palmetto
and oak, with here and there a few
cleared acre net to groves of orange
and grap fruit. As we proceeded the
river widens until it emcrire into 1-nke
Monroe, a beautiful sheet of water, the
terminal of the steamboat transporta
tion, at the head of which i situated a
tvnieal southern town, San ford. A you
rule through the country from Sanford
to Fort Myers, a distance of 200 mile
or more, you would wonder what the
people of tin section do to pain a
livelihood. The land is nearly all cov
ered with pine. We w thousands of
acres of pine tre that had been shaved
to allow the pitch to run.- This is an
important industry all through this sec
tion. .
We saw many fine groves lx'tween
Lakeland and Myers. There are o good
manv lumber mill on this line. The
waste from thee beini? run back sonw
distance from the mill and burned. It
seemed queer to a Vermonter to see
great piles of slabs burning as fast a
it i Hawed.'
Fort Myers, the terminal of the A.
O. L., is a very pretty city. Here can
be seen vegetation characteristic of the
tn picM, among which in the bamboo, date
palm, pawpaw, mango, banana, etc. Tiie
citv is situated on the south side of the
('aliMisnhiitchee river, a stream in some
respect superior to the St. John's, rang
in in wiilt U from a mile and a half
at its mouth to a narrow channel a few
rorls wi le.. This river i navipahlc ' for
sinnll craft nearly it entire length. The
time is surety coming when the Work of
dredging, now already begun by the gov
ernment, which when completed will
make this river one of the main thor
oughfares of navigation between the east
aim west coast.
The climate of this section of Florida
is certainly most delightful. The tlier
mnmeter regitered on tiie average for
the year,,.!! decrees, as recorded by
a prominent citizen of Alva. Hie
weather for the past month hn b:en
liko that of June in Vermont, only that
the sir seem so soft, and balmy that
it is a delight to breathe it. At this
season of the year, vegetation is practi
cally dormant, excepting that of cilrus,
fruit and evergreen trees. Orange and
grape fruit picking is now at i height,
many grove having been picked al
ready. This county (lce) i fast coming to
the front in the growing of citrus fruits.
Manv who owned extensive groves in the
north, having realized that the risk of
fiosts wa too great, have-sold out and
come to l.ce county and engaged very
extensively in t lie culture of. orange ant
grape fruit. The grove range from four
to five hundred acres.

If so, it will interest you to
know that it can be stopped
with Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills ;
and without any , bad . after
effects, and this without dan
ger of forming a drug habit or
having your stomach disar
ranged. They positively con
tain no opium, morphine, co
caine, chloral, ether or chloro
form in any form. Dr. Miles'
Anti-Pain Pills relieve pain,
and leave only a sense of relief.
The reason for this is explained
by the fact that headache comes
from tired, irritable, turbulent,
over-taxed brain nerves. 'Anti
Pain Pills soothe and strength
en these nerves, thus removing
the cause. They are harmless
when taken as directed.
"W use Ir. Miles' Anti-Pain mils
for ths cute of headache, end w
think that there Is nothing that will
equal them. Tliey will cure the
severest spell of nervous or " sic
headache In a very few minutes. I
am of a nervous temperament, and
occasionally havo epells when my
nerves seem to be completely exhaust
ed, and I tremble so I can senrcely
contain myself. At these times J al
ways take the Antt-Paln Tills, and
they nulet me right awny. It Is re
markable what a soothing effoct they
have upon the nerves,"

active commercial life has not forgotten
the spiritual needs f his followers.
We received a most cordial welcome
upon our arrival and were right royally
entertained nt the respective homes of
our ' Northern- friends. We have met
many very pleasant people in Alva. Hos
pitality such as exists in the South could
be very advantageously cultivated in
the North.
Alva has a very pretty Methodist
Episcopal church, library and . a good
graded school. Judge liarney, as he is
familiarly called, is fast coming to the
front one of the huge orange and
grape fruit growers of this Fcction, be
ing in company with Mr. Klmer, also
from Hurre, in several grove-?, some of
which are already lieanng iHrgn crops.
The returns at this stage of fruit cul
ture are very remunerative and thus
far lias been very satisfying. Among
several -young groves we have visited
are those lieltmging to O. H. Anker end
W. S. Smithers, both well and favorably
known to Ilarre people. As a word of
praise to the caretakers, 1 will say that
these are, especially fine groves and re
flect lunch credit upon Messrs. Ihtniey
and Elmer's ability and good judgment
in wttinir and curing for the tree. Mr.
Joseph Chamberlain, our host, has a fine
Voung grove, iart, of which is well laden
with fruit. He occasionally remarks
situ'c the arrival of his son, that he is
the happiest man in Alva.
We had our Thanksgiving dinher at
Mr. Harney's. Mrs. Elmer and Mr.
Chamberlain contributed' part of it. It
consisted of a flue chicken pie, stewed
rabbit, with dressing from the cabbage
palmetto tree, Japanese sorrel sauce,
which is line substitute for ersnberries,
sweet potatoes, sorrel and mince lues
nut and raisins and for the )at. course,
which was used Ss a center piece; fruit
consisting of pineapples, three varieties
of oranges, lemons, limes, kuiiiqunt.
Japanese parsimmons and guavas.
After "dinner we took our riiles and
stnrtcd for the evnress swamp, about
two miles from here, where we found
usme quite plentiful, constMing of large
birds, squirrels, etc.; 1 shot at several
but for some reaon it had no effect. We
found tracks of the wild turkey, and
(aw a large flock of wild ducks. We
advanced a eautionslv as possible, but
the old drake bcins on guard got his
eve on us and gave the signal, and away
they went. Fish h very plentiful sod
we have much better luck with the hook
and line than the rifle. Fred Prt;;e land

SKIMS ALONG IN WIND WAGON.
Dr. Julian P. Thomas Sails Through
New York Street at Terrific Pace.
New York, Dec. 8. Dr. Julian P.
Thomas last night operated the first
motor driven wind wagon ever run in
this country. In effectiveness it ex
ceeded even his expect nt ions, end his
sM-ed. With a free course it would
eu.sily have run sw.iy from anything ex
cept a very fnst automobile. Iloises
shied, and pedestrians crossing the
street rushed in a panic for the side
witlks. With the gasoline engine snap
ping like that of a racing automobile,
and the great propeller bUdes swishing
through the air as tl.ey swung abend
of the machine, the effect was startling
as if a r"iU flying machine had been
sailing between the lines of excited
persons on both r'des c f the street. Now
whizzing straight ahead and the next
instane skidding dangerously near a
curb, the w ind wagon raced up and
down the street for an hour until Dr.
Thomas wss satisfied thai, he had one
cessfully solved a problem which has
puzzled inventors for years.
Iletails remain to be perfected in the
way of adjusting pnils of the "machin
ery, and it wns nt once made evident
that a very powerful brake- must be
attached before the wind wagon can be
operated with f-sfcty. but, otherwise it
wan complete ns it wns run tonight. In
general the wind wagon has the. up.
jeHinnce of n huge bicycle, with a two
bladed propeller, eight feet long, hung in
front, and a gasoline motor built, in at
the buck of the machine:. Dr. Thomas
sits in the middle of the wind wagon
on a bicycle sent nnd stears by a handle

the wind wogou is steered by turning
the rear wheels.

GRADE CROSSING FATALITY
Cyril Favereault and Joseph Young, a
Newsboy, Struck While Driving
Over Cook-Street Crossing
Adams,, Mass., Dee. 10. Two persons
were killed Saturday night in a grade
crossing aeecident on the Pittslield and
North Adams branch of the New York
Central railroad in this town.
This accident was the third grade
crosing fatality , in Adams within three
months. The victims of the accident
were Tyril Favereault, a driver of a gro
cery wagon, and Joseph Young, a 0-year-old
newsboy, who was with Favereault
in the wagon.
The accident happened at the Cook
street crossing, midway . between the
Renfrew and Pittsburg depots. At this
point there are neither gates nor cross
ing tender, (and, although the tracks
are straight,' the buildings are clustered
so thickly that a view of the track can
not le had until it is almost reached.
"Favereault and the Young boy were
driving across the tracks w hen the horse
was struck by a north-bound train. The
horse was instantly killed, but the wagon
was uninjured, except for a pnir of brok:
en shafts. It is thought that the shock
of. the collision threw Favereault and
Young from their seats on the track in
front of the engine. Both bodies were
dreadfully mangled.
