And every blamed one of 'em making money. Why, sir, you couldn't find a bootblack in. Gilt Gulch who was Worth less than fifty thou- sand! This vision of wealth and political prominence was quite too much for Barrington. He adjusted his affairs in Enuckleville, which was no very difficult matter, took tearful leave of numerous relatives and of a certain pretty damsel, who was not yet a rel- ative, but bad rashly promised to be- come one whenever Barrington's in- come should suffice for the support of two persons, and hied himself to Gilt Gulch, promising to send souvenir post- cards from every municipality he pass- ed through on the way. Now, underneath the lurid exagger- ation with which Mr. Theodore Tup- .penheim had clothed his narrative of the rise of Gilt Gulch there lay a re- spectable substratum of truth, and the combination of Barrington's ingenious appearance with certain letters of in- troduction to persons financially prom- inent in Gilt Gulch, which Mr. Tup- penheim procured. for him, resulted in his speedily establishing a thriving practice: For the most part it was work in connection with the location of mining claims, and, besides numer- ous fees in cash, Barrington acquired several claims of his own, which he disposed of profitably. In brief, at the end of a year Bar- rington had waxed so prosperous as to 'feel himself warranted in marrying. The Knucirleville Weekly Times an- nounced editorially that it understood that young Mr. Barrington, for whom, its readers Would remember, the Times filed predicted a brilliant career when die hung out his shingle in Knuckle- „ville, was now ane of the leading men in the west, and the ogler village maidens were openly jealous of Susie ;Cutler, whose good fortune it was to .be to marry a millionaire. . But Susie herself had no illusions. MAS USED DI F WLER'S EXTE1 SACT OF WILD STRAWBERRY For Over Seventeen Years FOR DIARRBCEA, DYSENTERY, SUMMER COMPLAINT, ETC. Mrs. Holliday, Box No. 86, Wroxeter, Ont., writes:—"I must say that we have ' + .used Dr. Fowler's Extract of Wild Straw - "berry for over seventeen years, and have found nothing to equal it for all Summer Complaints, Diarrhoea, Dysentery, etc. Our house is never without a 'bottle of the Extract and I can recommend it to be kept in every home, especially where there are children." You run absolutely no risk when you buy Dr. Fowler's Extract of Wild Strawberry, as it has been a standard remedy on the market for over sixty- five ixtyfive years. A few doses have often cured when doctors' prescriptions and other remedies have failed. Its effects are marvellous, It acts like a charm, Belief is almost instantaneous. We wish to warn the public against being imposed on by unserupulous deals ere who substitute the so-called •Straw- berry Compounds for "Dr. Fowler's," Ask or " Dr. 104ier+s r: and insist on � getting it, as the cheap imitations may be dangerous to life.

Her childhood lessons of thrift and econ. omy had taken deep root in her mind, and she would not, shesaid,, have the price of a r'ouud trip railroad ticket thrown away. If Barringtonfelt that. he Must spend the money, let him buy a cabinet organ or a secondhand, piano for the front parlor, 'l'hey would be married in their own .house at Gilt Gulch aud atter that take a. little wed- ding trip to Cotpt•ado Springs or maybe Deaver. Perhaps, being, a prudent damsel, Susie desired to have a glance at Gilt Gulch before she committed' herself irrevocably. At any rate, mat- ters had been thus arranged, and, the date set for the wedding, being but two days away and Shele due to ar- rive that afternoon. Barrington was in tb a state of ecstasy appropriate to such circumstances, It was in this moment of supreme bappiuess that misfortune befell him. The work Barrington bad been doing requires to be performed with great accuracy; otherwise it is not only valueless, but may be the occasion of great loss to the client, Now, it is possible that Barrington possessed genius. People who have that, you know, are apt to be careless as to de- tails. Perhaps it was merely that. being deeply in love, he could not con- centrate his mind upon his work. How- ever that may be, Hartford, the attor- ney whose office was next to Barring- ton's, had discovered in the course of an investigation of the records that Barrington had filed documents con- taining serious errors. He spoke to Barrington about it in a perfectly friendly way. Barringtop received his kindly admonitions with a contempt which he was at no pains to disguise. Why should he pay heed to the re- marks of a man who wore baggy trousers and long hair and played faro, to say nothing of becoming intoxicat- ed now and then? He knewwell enough what inspired these critical ob- servations. Hartford was jealous of the prosperity which Barrington bad so rapidly achieved. Let him stop caviling, said the virtuous Barrington to himself, and seek success by lead- ing a sober life, as he did. • Feeling that he bad been insulted, Barrington thereafter cuunned his communications with Hartford to a curt "How are you?" accompanied by a barely perceptible nodwhen they chanced 'to meet. It was with a good deal of surprise, therefore, that Hart- ford, glancing up from his rather di- lapidated desk as he heard the door open, perceived Barrington entering his office. One had not to look at Bar- rington twice to be convinced that he was badly frightened. His eyes, which ordinarily regarded those about him with an air of easy toleration. were wide with terror, and his well chisel- ed features, customarily wearing an air of placid conceit, were now white and drawn. His manner toward Hart- ford artford was no longer supercilious. All his carefully constructed attitude of dignity bad vanished. "You've been in this part of the country longer than I have, Hartford," said he. "I want your advice as a— ; a friend, you know." Hartford nodded and withdrew his pipe from his lips. "Sure," said he succinctly. "What's the row?" "Why, you see," said Barrington, "it seems that in filing the papers for Jim Busby on that last mining claim of his I made a slight error. 1 have been doing a large business, .. you know, Hartford—a very large business—and it was inevitable that 1 should make a mistake occasionally. It seems that some unscrupulous persons have taken advantage of this purely technical slip and have jumped Busby's claim, and be is very much exercised about it." "I should• think he might be," Hart- ford observed. "Yes," repeated Barrington, "he is much exercised and quite unreason- able about it. He came into my office a few moments ago and demand- ed an explanation. Of course I couldn't tell him anything except that it was just a mistake such as any man might make, and be said I was lying to him. He said I was too smart to make a fool break like that and that I was in with the gang that were trying to do him out of a claim that would have made him. rich. 1 argued with him, the best I could, but it didn't budge him. He said he didn't see that it made much. difference, anyhow, wheth- er I was a fool or a knave, because either way I hadn't any right to live, and he wound up by saying that he'd just go down to the Jolly Dog and get a few drinks to put him in the right fraise of mind and then he'd come back and redtice the membership of the Gilt Gulch bar by one." It is significant of Hartford's broad and tolerant temperament that hee did net regrind Harrington that he "bad previously predicted such a catastro- phe as had now befallen. Neverthe- less a slight glimmer of amusement stole across his face. "So you want my advice, do you?" he risked. "I should nppreeiate Itvery much," said Barrington. "Well. yon shall have it," said Hart- ford laconically, rapping the bowl of his pipe _ ngainst the heel of his shoe. "if .11tn Busby were oat gunning for me and i couldn't shoot tiny better than you can, and I had a comfortable little sum saved, as you have, and there were a pretty girl in New Eng- land who didn't know any better than tc> love me, as she does you, Pd go east on the half past ? train. and i wouldn't hurry back." "But the trouble is,\.33arrington ex- plained, ''Susle—Miss Cutlet, that lea will be here on the train that gets in at 2:50. The trains pass on the first siding out. you know.

Ilusby's disposition. I'll forgive you." Then Hartford looked at his watch and found that it was twenty minutes pet 2. "You'll have to move lively, my boy," he said, "Keep an eye open for Mud if the coast is clear take the 2:30, if It isn't, walk over to Sand City and take the next one there." "But about Susie," Barrington re- monstrated, "Pshawl" growled Hartford. "That's easy enough. Leave a note for der with the station master, telling her to go back to Colorado Springs and you'll meet her there. If you don't ►lave time to write a note, have the station mas- ter tell her you've been called away on a life and death matter aud that she's to go to the hotel and wait until you send her word. Don't you worry about the girl. She'll prefer a slightly de- layed wedding to an expedited funeral. Hurry up now. You've just about time to make it." As he slipped down the main street of Gilt Gulch on his way to the sta. tion Barrington caught a glimpse of Jim Busby's gaunt profile as be stood at the bar of the Jolly Dog, his back toward the entrance. Barrington's in- dolent heart rejoiced as he reflected that the ten mile walk to Sand City would now be unnecessary. It was just twenty-eight minutes past 2 when. be reached the station. He gave the necessary instructions concerning Su. sle to the station master and rushed out upon the platform. But the train which made up at Gilt Gulch was not yet ready to depart. A freight car bad left the rails, blocking the track. Five, ten. fifteen minutes passed, and still the obstruction remained. Barrington grew uneasy. Jim tlusuy mignt at any moment deem that be bad imbibed a quantity of liquor commensurate with his contemplated task and begin to search for him. But at the end of twenty minutes, to vis great relief, the perspiring train crew succeeded in re- placing the derailed car, and the freight train pulled slowly out upon a siding. Even as it did so Barrington caught sight of the 2:50 train as it rounded the curve just beyond the sta- tiop. A moment later Susie Cutler, her trim little figure set off by a skillfully tailored gray traveling suit and her face wearing the look of determination befitting a girl who had just completed a journey nearly across the continent alone, descended to the platform of Gilt Gulch station. Barrington rushed toward her joyfully. Within three steps of her he encountered an obsta- cle—a very serious obstacle. This was nothing less than the muzzle of a re- volver. Behind the revolver stood Mr. James Busby.. "Now, young man," said Mr: Busby, "we'll attend to your little matter, and we won't be long doing it." Then Busby became suddenly con- scious of a voice, evidently feminine, proceeding from some point in his rear and of the light pressure of a hand upon his arm. "Do you know," said the voice, "It's dreadfully careless of you pointing that thing at anybody so. Why, it might go off." Turning about, Busby looked into the piquant features of Susie Cutler. He decided unhesitatingly that, note withstanding some freckles and the tendency of the nose to turn up, it was a rather pleasing face to view. "So it might," said Busby slowly. "So it might." "Weil, then, stop aiming it at Har -i Mr. Barrington," she commanded. "You make me nervous." "Fact is." said Busby, "1 was sort of planning to shoot Mr. Barrington." He bad lowered his weapon and spoke very calmly and deliberately. "What!" shrieked the girt "Yon have the audacity to stand there and tell me you mean to commit a cold blooded murder? Where are the po- lice? A splendid place this must be to live in, where a man goes out to kill another as coolly as tied eat his breakfast!" "That's.tbe way with all you folks from out Boston way," grumbled Bus- by. "You're always getting murder and the administration of justice mixed. 1 ain't going to murder him. I'm going to execute him- He's done me dirt, and if be ain't killed he'll do somebody else dirt. So for the good of everybody he'd ought to be shot What do you care anyway? Ain't no relative of yourn. Is he?" "Why. no," she answered in some confusion, "he isn't a relative exactly, —that is, he"— A gleam of comprehension shone in Busby's eyes. "Come to Whit of it," said he; "I heard something about his being go- ing to get married. Be you the girl?" She nodded. "Yes," she answered simply, "I'm the girl:" "'Then." said Busby. "It's clear enough to my mind that in interfering with this execution you're preventing rile from tieing you a great favor. E Iot,Aaomever, if you stick to it that you don't want him' shot and tf yoh'tl take hitt out of Nevada and keep him out"— The girl did not Walt for him to tin• ish.

Ingalls was directing some remarks to Seuator Hoar of Massachusetts. The, other senator `from that state, Mr. Dawes, having come in while Mr. In- galls was speaking, thought the words were meant for his ear, and so, inter- rupting, he asked Ingalls if he was di- recting the remarks at him. The Kan- sas senator turned slowly around, for Mr. Dawes sat behind., him, and then, with delicious intonation, but an in- stant wit, he said, "I was directing my remarks to the successor of Charles Sumner and not to the successor of Daniel Webster." The repartee has become traditional, and the utterance was at once placed' alongside of that reply of Conkling to"Senator Thurman, which is also traditional in the senate chamber. Conkling was speaking, and Thur- man had said, interrupting him, "Doe& I the senator aim his remarks at me; he constit'ntly turns to me?" when Mr. Conkling, with delicious gravity, bow- ing to Thurman, with whom he was very friendly, said: "When I turn to the senator I turn as the Mussulman turns to Mecca; I turn as I would tura, to the common law of England—the' world's, moat, copious fount of jurist•! :1n1(teRC�P�'.. ..._.. _ Memory and Intellect. The possession of a great memory does not necessarily mean a strong intellect. Mozart when only thirteen years old played a new opera from one ,hearing which had been compos- ed especially to •test his skill. But, in addition to reproducing the opera from memory without missing a note, he introduced in the second playing, the variations which struck his cul- tured hearers dumb with amazement. Blind Tom could probably have re- produced the same opera. He did play Liszt's celebrated Hungarian opera after hearing it once without missing a note, but he could not have created what Mozart did. .He had Mozart's memory, but not his intel- lect.—N, •Y. American. The Winning Appeal. The intrepid general (in the new order) was rallying her wavering troops. "Women," she cried, "will you give way to mannish fears?" A murmur of indecision ran through the ranks, whereupon the leader shot the last arrow in her quiver. "Will you," she fiercely'edemanded, "show the white feather in a season when feathers are not being worn?" The effect was electrical. "Never!" roared the soldiery, and, forming quickly in battle array, they once more hurled themselves on the enemy. Quarantine. The captain was talking to a group of ladies about nautical ignorance. "As we neared port one voyage," he said. "I overheard the conversa- tion of two girls, `We'll soon be pass- ing quarantine now,' said the first girl. -The other whispered: Tor or goodness' sake, dear, dry up! Don't let the captain know how ig- norant you are. Quarantine isn't a place; it's a disease.'

So., writicg in the Quarterly Review says the solution of the mystery of' cancer is still to be sought and that the work so far acoom- pliehed is merely a \solid foundation on which the super-stnuotnre is yet to be erected. Canner, he says, is simply an abnor- mal growth in what is otherwise a nor- mally healthy body. The body of the healthy adult is m+tde up of Dells en- gaged in various functions. For ex- ample, the cells whioh snake up the outer layer of the skin are constantly baing rubbed or washed off and other Dell growth provides for the renewal of this waste. In cancer there is a similar cell division but the cells thus formed do not organize themselves into those whioh make up the normal strnotnre of the organ in whioh they are developed. On the contrary these cella discharge no useful function, but live on the body like a parasite. This parasite increases in size continually, and barrows deeper and deeper into the tissues of its hoot. The problem is to find out what causes this abnormal growth in otherwise well ordered cells, in other words, to find out why a oell, or perhaps a group of cells, suddenly takes on the power of incess- ant and purposeless growth.
