"There is nothing like clear conscience for an appetizer," observed Montfort as he watched hie friend Radar drink a Soaktail previous to°attacking his lunch. "Unless it's a cocktail made by a man who undentands the art of mixing one," argued Renclair, "However. I won't staid forth as an advocate of uieoaol, t is not often that r take a drink of liquor." "Leave the stuff alone and use a clear conscience in its stead," urged Montford. "Charley', my dear fellow, I really wish I could persuade you to take, a different view of things. I really don't believe that you have any serious object in life." "Haven't I, though?" murmured Rea, clair to himself. "This will be one of the best years I have ever had," resumed Montfort. "I shall clear $8,000 this year from my invest meats," "While I am getting along on *salary of a quarter of that amount," groaned Charley. "You wouldn't have to for very many years more if you would listen to my ad- vice. Save your money and invest. Why, 1 saved money when my own salary was only $600 a year. You could save half of your income if you would. You can't im- agine the satisfaction I take in working for myself -the best of all employers," "P11 think of it," replied Renclair care: lesely. As they finished lunch and, parted Montfort remarked: "Well, I've got to call on a client who has some business for me to d who doesn't know• anyth nin g about busi- ness and depends altogether upon my a vice," ' "Then I'll wager you" make as in out of her investments as she does," marked Charley sotto voce. "Hello, fellow, you've dropped your wallet." But Montfort had turned a corn widovt d- ach re- o1L er. Charley, too, turned the corner, only to find that his friend was not in sight. "Never mind. I'll see him again to- morrow and return the wallet to him." As Renclair waded through the letters that fell to him as corresponding clerk for the firm which employed him he mused: "Montfort was getting rather personal, though he didn't know it, when he spoke of widows." For Renclair had lost his heart to a wid- ow, one of the youngest, brightest, pret- tiest and cleverest ofall widows. In fact,. he had resolved on that very night to end suspense by asking Elsie Cummings to become his wife. "And I must really begin now to save my money," he soliloquized. "Elsie is obliged to wtirk hard now, because of the improvidence of her first husband. I'll try to make life easier for her." He balled upon her that night, full of trepidation, and spent a very nervous hour, at the end of which time he stammered a proposal. To his great astonishment, Elsie placed her hand in his and said "Yes." Full of boyish enthusiasm, he borrowed one of her rings and rushed out to buy the engagement circlet. Choosing it was a task that required considerable delibera- tion. It was an hour later when he found himself at Elsie's door. Just as he was about to knock he heard a man's voice inside. A twinge of jealousy seized the lover. It was hardly an honorable thing to do, but he listened. Having heard enough, he walked down the hallway: Pausing under a gas jet,, he did another thing *that -was hardly honorable. He took Montfort's wallet out of his pocket and carefully inspected the contents. Then -he returned to -Elsie's door and knocked. "Hello!" cried Montfort in surprise. "Didn't know that you knew Mrs. Cum. mings." "She is my affianced wife." "Your affianced wife?" repeated Mont- fort, paling. "Yes. I overheard a little of your conversation,'' I gather that Mrs. Cum- mings has intrusted you with her fortune of $60,000. Up to tonight I didn't know that she had even $100." ' "You have eonsiderably overstated the 'amount," said Montfort doggedly. "All the money I received from Mrs. Cum- mings was $2,000, which I am prepared tc return tomorrow, with the profits." "But I heard Mrs. Cummings state that the amount was $00,000." "She is mistaken," murmured Montfort. "To cut the matter short, sir, I may as well tell you that I found your wallet to- day where you dropped it. There are pa- pers in it which, entirely confirm Mrs. Cummings' story. Now, if you don't feel inclined to make restitution, the contents of your pocketbook shall be deposited to- morrow with the district attorney." "What shall I do?" gasped Montfort. "Write what I dictate and sign your name to it." Montfort obeyed tremblingly. "Now you may go, but I will retain the pocketbook until tomorrow. And always remember, Montfort," mockingly, "that the best appetizer is a clear conscience." Montfort lost no time in going. It may be mentioned right here that on the fol- lowing day he made complete restitution. "Why did you tell me that you wore s0. poor you were compelled to suRport your- self ourself P" Renclair asked reproachfully. "Because," replied Elsie, "I diiln't want to think that my future husband was at - treated by mylpioney alone. "-Exchange. A Peculiar Tomb. Among the many odd ways in which persons have ma'ked their last resting place, the oddest bI odd is found in the little "city of the dead" at Mayfield, Ky. One H. G. Woolridge, born in Tennessee in 1822, as says his memorial stone, hav- ing grown near to that point where we are wont "to shuffle off this mortal coil," has conceived the idea of perpetuating his name by aset of monuments that will at least mark him as aft eebentric. A few years since he bought his lot, 18 by 80 feet, and inclosed it with a neat iron fence. Soon thereafter he had erected a marble shaft about 17 feet high, bearing his name and date of birth only. Soon afterward he had another erected by the shaft's side, with a life size statue of himself in marble resting on a'pedestal, which statue is a most excellent likeness. Then followed, in succession, ' in stone, the statue of his hound Tow Path in pur suit of a deer; his pointer Bob pointing a fox; then came the Life sized horse and rider, cut from sandstone in one piece, a mbst excellent piece of work, the rider rep- resenting Mr. Woolridge, the statue with rider being about 14 feet high. Then fol- lowed the vault, which is built of stone, covered by a slab of •-pure' white' marble;" upon which he cut the figure of a gun. Then comes a pretty statue of a peasant girl holding a skull, upon which is his name. Woolridge is alive, and being pos. sessed of ample means and alone- in the world -a bachelor -.-there is no telling _ what may come next to assist in perpetu- ating his memory. --Louisville Courier, ,,J.o13rEal.

All this new life, renew- ed strength, younger looks, perfect sleep, and gl bd digestive vigor, is the direct re- sult of using Paine's Celery Compound, the great medicine that makes people welt Mr Swain in a very recent letter says: - "Last winter I was in bed suffering frcm rheumatism. Having tried scores of pre- scriptions from doctors and neighbors, I I was last induced to try your Paine's Celery ' Compound. I was immediately relieved of my pains which, I am glad to say, have not returned since. Having been a slave to rheumatism for fifteen years, I am now able to do as big a day's work as any .man. I recommend this wonderful remedy to all suffering humanity. I attribute my pre- sent, condition to a careful use of your Csmpound. It saved much money and gave me much comfort."

Swain, the veteran Station Mas- ter at Winnipeg, is one of the old and tried officials of the great Canadian Pacific Rail- inont aMtrreal, where he enterede left England in the service of the Grand Trunk Railway Co., spend- ing over twenty years of his life with'Can- ada's pioneer railway corporation. In 1880 Mr Swain went to the Northwest and set- tled in Winnipeg, where his experience in railroading secured for him his present position. Mr Swain, though a 'man of extraordin- ary physique and giant strength, was some time ago made as helpless as a child, from the suffering and agonies of rheumatism, to which terrible disease he had been a slave for fifteen years. After utter failures with doctors and medicines, he was induced by Capt. Doug- las, the genial proprietor of the Leland House, to try Paine's Celery Compound.
