HIGHEST AWARD ST. LOUIS, 1904
Won at Last
The lodger who occupied the upper
floor was a steady elderly city clerk, of
remarkable punctuality and precision.
Still the tone of the homely dwelling
was new to Mona, who had been accus-
tomed to the aristorcratie, if narrow,
nicety of her grandmother's house, or
the distinction of her relatives' establish-
ments.
The only members of the family who
bad accepted Mrs. Newburgh's grand-
daughter frankly and cordially were Sir
Robert and Lady Mary Everard. The
rest looked on her as an interloper, an
offshoot tainted by an admixture of
blood that was anything but blue. Of
this she was but dimly conscious. While
under her grandmother's wing, she had
ben received with decent civility; now,
she felt keenly that she was about to al-
ienate the only real friends she possess-
ed—to sink from the level of the New-
burgh traditions to that of struggling,
almost adventurous, nobodies. Yet she
did not regret the desperate step she
had taken. Why, at her age, should she
link herself for a long life to a thralldom
that would irk her soul ? Youth de-
mands so much. It takes the friction of
a life -time to teach moderation and the
wisdom of compromise.
To Mona, the notion of temperate lik-
ing, instead of devotion to an ideal hero,
and the importunate adoration of a man
whom she considered commonplace and
dull, was intolerable. Above all, she was
Imo disenchanted with life, and love, and
dreams of perfection, by St. John Lisle's
conduct, that she fancied it was impos-
sible the scattered fragments of imagin-
ation's shiningtemple could ever be re-
formed—not knowing the marvelous re-
cuperative powers of time and nature.
Fatigue made her sleep so profoundly
that it took some moments of waking
consciousness before she recognized just
where she was. The sound of some rine
moving reminded her that she was shar-
ing Mme. Debrisay's room, and presently
that lady came out fully dressed from _
behind a large Japanese screen, which
converted one corner into a dressing-
closst.
"And how did you sleep, dear ?''
"Ob,, well; too well!" exclaimed Mona.
"Well, stay where you are. I'll bring
you a cup of coffee an a bit of toast,
for I have a long, busy day before me.
I go to Mrs. Ardell's grand establishment
first, over at Kensington. I am there
for four mortal hours, then 1 get a bit
of food and give two private lessons in
the same neighborhood, so I am obliged
nes is business."
• "Of course it is; do not mind me!"
"My geed landlady will give you
something to eat at her dinner -time, and
we will have a cozy tea together when
I come in."
"Thank you, Deb."
"You see I have taken your advice, and
changed my rooms. I was just ready in
time for you, my lamb; the front room
is better for a sitting room."
She hurried away, and returned sooner
than Mona could have expected, with a
fragrant cup of cafe au Tait and a slice
of buttered toast.
Once more she put in her head with
a cheerful:
"I'm off now, make yourself, comfort-
able, dear; there are some bodks and a
lot of 'Family Heralds' in the next room;
there are splendid stories in them, they
make your hair stand on end, and forget
the time. Take the hand -bell if you want
anything—none of the other bells will
ring. Good-bye, dear."
Mona dressed slowly, and went into
the sitting room. It was a stormy, wet
day. The rain beat against the ono large
bow -window which lighted it, and which
looked over a small square of grass, with
a flower -bed in the middle, and a couple
of trees next the railings, that divided
it from the street. It was a fairly well
kept front garden, tut at the present
time, being strewn with dead leaves and
sodden with rain, it was not a cheerful
prospect. The fire had been hastily
loaded with coal, and had succumbed
to the load. The table cover was crook-
ed; a very irregular pile of newspapers,
eralde, programmes of concerts, deer -
flowed an occa'1ional table; but the fur-
niture was good and in good order,
though extremely mixed as to style and
pattern; some of it, in fact, was MUM.
Debrisay's, and some her landlady's.
The hand -bell evoked a tall, hard -fea-
tured woman, with thick grizzled hair, a
spotless cap, anal a dark print dress,
"Tho fire's gone out?" she repeated, in
a high-pitched tone. "I dare say madame
thinks coals'1l light of theireelves; she
just pitehee them on, whether there is a
spark alive or not. I'll fetch a few
sticks, miss."
The fire burning, the hearth swept, and
a few tidying touches bestowed on the
room made a vast improvement.
Mona threw herself into an arm -chair
and tried to think whet was best to do.
What pressed most upon her mind was
the painful necessity of communicating
with Lady Mary. She ought not to bo
left in ignorance of her intentions, but
would it not be well to hear first what
Leslie Waring would say? Yes, she would
wait.
The'previous evening she had posted a
few lines to the Chase, announcing her
safe arrival; she might therefore post-
pone her next letter for twenty-four
hours.
But this time, her° refusal to ratify
her engagement had been read by her
lover, and she quivered at the idea of the
pain and snortifieation she had inflicted.
He would be awfully angry. Indeed, she
hoped lie would. It might help him to
Mow off his grief. He would write
severely; she dreaded Itis letter --but
surely he would be too bitterly offend-
ed to conte in person to reproach her;
that possibility was unspeakably terrible.
The dreary hours went slovely by ---
slowly, yet fast. She could not form any
Conception of what her future might be.
Her powers of imagination, of conjec
furls, paused, paralyzed, before the brie:
tying difficulties of the present. • :

guardian, and for whom he had a great

er than knew—opposed to his marriage
with herself. She was convinced that he
considered her not sufficiently well off
or important to be a suitable match for
his ex -ward. Ile would assist to rouse
Waring's wrath against her, and would
not let him lower himself by a personal
interview.
She strove to swallow a morsel or two
of the dinner set before her; she tried
to gather the sense of an agonizing tale
in the London Reader, and interest her-
self in the tremendous persecutions of
the heroine. All in vain. Time, how-
ever, was rolling on; she might soon ex-
pect Mme. Debrisay. Four o'clock struck
when she had gone into the bedroom to
seek for some piece of fancy work (which
Mnie. Debrisay infintely preferred to
mending her clothes), when the sound of
the front -door bell, followed by a step in
the next room, made her hope that her
kind hostess had returned. Going quick-
ly in to greet her, she beheld Jane, the
servant, in the act of lightingthe gas,
while, by the wind, looking paer—stern-
er than she thought he could, stood Les-
lie Waring!
"Good -morning," he said stiffly. "I
thought I should find you in."
This while Jane pulled down the blind
and retired. Then he made a step for-
ward to where Mona stood, motionless—
her trembling hands locked together, her
eyes wide -opened, gazing at hint.
"Do you seriously mean what you have
written here?" he asked, in a thick, un-
steady voice, as he drew forth and open-
ed her letter.
"Yes," she said; "I do."
"Then I have a right to ask the reason
of this sudden change. What have I
done to deserve it?"
"You have deserved nothing but good
and gratitude from roe," faltered Mona,
sinking into a chair, for she felt her
limbs unable to support her.
"Then why do you desert me?"
"I toId you in my leiter—the whole
truth; I cannot love you as a wife ought

lifted n corner of the veil which bides
the )mysteries of life from young oyes,
and given her a glimpse of human pas-
sion and the enelhantnhent of it; now
nothing less glowing could satisfy her—
all else was tame and weak. And this
hero whom she had invested with all
the attributes of noblest manhood,
strength and tenderness, the masterful
decision of a fine intellect, the gentle-
ness of a knight-errant, he had shown
himself to her in his true colors, and
swept away the illusions which had
gathered round his image in her mind
forever. She said truly there was not
a vestige of love in her heart for any
man, nor did she believe she could ever
believe in another.
She did not dream of the enormous
recuperative powers which youth pos-
sesses. Still it was a bitter blow, that
sent her reeling back frim the threshold
of life, to recover as best she could her
vanished hopes of truth and tenderness
—respectful love, everlasting constancy.
She had not completed her difficult
letter, when Mme. Debrisay came in.
"I am quite done up!" she cried. "Such
vile weather! I will change my boots,
and be with you in a minute. But I have
a new pupil, so my Wednesday will be
well filled at Kensington. We'll talk over
everything at tea."
The kindly woman's horror and amaze-
ment when Mona disclosed the dreadful
fact that Waring had come to answer h'er
letter in person, and had gone away in
sorrow and indignation, can be better
imagined than described.
She was too deeply affected for speech.
She pushed back her chair from the table,
and sat a silent image of grief.

Barwick, Ont., April 9.—( (Special).—
That Dodd's Kidney Pills will cure Rheu-
matism, or any other disease resulting
from disordered Kidneys is the a cperi-
ence of many of the settlers in this Rai-
ey River country. The case of William
John Dixon, of this place, is a fair sam-
ple of the work of the great Canadian

"I had Rheumatism so bad I had to
use a stick to walk. I had pains in my
back and right hip, and I had no comfort
in sleeping.
"I could EA more than dress or undress
myself for nearly two months, and I
was for nearly three weeks I could not

The Growth of Children.
(Sketch.)
Until the age of 11 or 12 boys are tall-
er and heavier titan girls. Then the
girls for the next few years surpass the
boys both in weight and height, but the
boys soon overtake and pass them. The
sons of non -laboring parents are taller
and heavier than those of laboring par-
ents. The heads of girls are a little
rounder than those of boys and always
a. little smaller. It has been found that
children grow but little from the end of
November to the end of March, grow
tall but increase little in weight from
March till August, and increase mainly
in weight and little in height from Aug-
ust to November.

HOT TAR TO SAVE ROADS.
Process Adopted in France to Neutralize
Effect of Automobiles.
Trance is already endowed with good
roads, whereas in the United States the
automobile has come as an instrument
to awaken interest in the subject cf
highway building, it is regarded by the
French road engineer as a destructive
agent of roads already good. Moving
with great velocity and with closely ad-
hering and sometimes metal -shod tires,
the automobile sera'pe's the fine, hard
surfaces like a file, surfaces which evould
resist years of ordinary wagon traffic.
To combat theese destructive influ-
ences many of the French engineers em-
ploy the tarring .process, which aids
powerfully to prevent the disintegration
caused by traffic and which, unless ar-
rested, makes the dust nuisance acute.
It has settled down to a possitive con-
viction in France that hot tar applica-
tions are valuable in proportion to the
excellence of the surfaces upon which
they are laid. When well done the tar-
ring gives the effect of an asphalt pave-
ment, and the foothhold on a. macadam-
ixed surface is, of .course, much better
than on asphalt. In a ,previous report
mention was made of a city •boulevarcl in
Marseilles first macadamized and then
tarred. The tar was by no means smear-
ed over the surface like a coat of paint.
The work was done in the midst of the
dry season, after the road had been care-
fuly swept, and the hot liquid was work-
ed with stiff brushes into the road
joints, penetrating to a considerable
depth.
The traffic over this boulevard is in-
tense and consists largely of automobiles
moving at their highest speed. After
two years' uveae no more dust is observ-
able than would be the case with an or-
dinary asphalt pavement receiving the
traffic of innumerable unpalvod streets.
The surface is intact and the sides, where
washing generally occurs, look as fresh
and clean after a rain as an asphalt
pavement. It is doubtful whether any
thing short of a hard pavement can give
permanent satisfaction in a large city,
but if such as was performed. in Mar-
seilles could beundertaken in the open
country the road surfaces so treated
ought to last for years with reasonable
attention.

Slang.
(New York Tribune.)
The suspicion that a Brooklyn school-
girl killed herself because she had been
threatened with punishment for using
slang may or may not be well founded.
It is unquestionable, however, that
among school childrelt, as well as else-
where, the use of slang is far too pre-
valent. There are some slang words
which are not only unobjectionable but
also decidedly useful, and which may
profitably be incorporated•intc, the stand-
ard vocabulary of the language. Not a
few of other words which now enjoy
unchallenged standing had their origin
in slang. Unfortunately, there aro still
more slang words and phrases which have
no useful purpose, but which are simply
vulgar and offensive, if not actually in-
decent and profane. The discouragement
and suppression of these would be a
greater service to the language than the
elimination of a few superfluous letters
in orthography.

New York Printers' Strike.
As the printers' strike •has now about
failed, it would be well to extract a les-
son or two from its history. The bat-
tle, it is now apparent, was lost to the
strikers at the beginning when their
leaders suffered themselves to be out-
gencralled; they • .permitted the boss
printers to make the public believe that
the dominant issue was not an eight-
hour day, but a closed shop. • With an
overwhelming majority of .people it is
common sense that a roan should rule
his own shop, hove the right to choose
the men to set type in bus own place,
to set type there himself, or to put
his son or daughter at the case if he
and they so wish. When that is made
the square issue the boss is almost sure
to win.
It is hard, I know, if all this is per-
mitted for the union to maintain itself.
But a way must be found. Let the union
appeal to the publio on the issue of an
eight hour day, fair wages, healthful
conditions in the shop and equal lib-
erty to all, and, the public will be with
it every time, and in one way or an-
• other the public in this country is bound
to control.
Union organizations have been and
aro tremendous instruments for improv-
ing the condition of workingmen, but
they can easily become instruments for
terrible evil if they teach the working-
man that loyalty to his employer does
not matter;and that loyalty to the union
is everything; that the liberty and bene-
fit they seek are to be limited to their
ownend in o ressio tri

!MGR DOS AND DON''T&
Have more than one pair. It will be
tees expensive to have several pairs all
'going at once than to buy one and to
wear it until past all usefulness. It is a
good plan for the average woman to
have two pairs of dress shoes and two
pairs of strong walking shoes always
on hand.
Have a few shoe trees. They may be
bought at a' reasonable price and will
keep the shoe in shape wonderfully. The
toe is bound to turn up when the shoe
is empty and creases will form.
Do not use much shoe polish, says the
Brooklyn Eagle. Most shoes may be kept
in good condition if simply rubbed well
every night with a soft rag. Dressing
may be applied to the edges of the soles
and heels.
Never set shoes near heat, especially
if they aro wet. Any kind of heat, from
the fireplace or the steam radiator, will
break or crack the leather.
Do not let the heels run down. It
throws the shoes out of level and spoils
the shape. Never let buttoned shoes be
partly buttoned. Not only dons it indi-
cate a lack of refinement, but it ruins
the shape of the shoe.
When laced shoes are taken off at
night, do not leave then laced to far up.
The foot will have to be forced into them
in the morning and the linings will be
broken and the shoo strained in many
places. Always use a shoe horn for low
shoes and slippers.

New Creations for Men.
The terrifying rumor comes from Lon-
don that there is to be a radical change
in evening dress for men. Blue cloth is
whispered of; velvet collars; the king
himself is said to have commissioned a
firm of tailors to experiment with a re-
vised architecture. The happy thous-
ands of men who are still contentedly
wearing the evening coat of half a doz-
en years ago may well tremble for their
easiest economy.

Manufacturers of the talking machines are
elaborating their enteaprieea to an extent
never Dreamed of before. It will not be long
before an entire opens. east will be heard
on one of those 'machines. Formerly a tenor
or a prtaua donna was enough. Now the
costly artists from the opera house sing
duets, tries and quartettes, The services of
such performers aro made possible by the
fact khat all of ,these celebrities are now con-
tent to take a royalty .on the sale of their
songs rather than a fixed- price. It was for-
merly customary to pay a certain sum, but
,the singers naw clamor for a percentage,
since there ds such a great demand to hear
them in tills way.
