There are songs enough tor the hero Who dwells on the heights of fame; I sing for the disappointed For those who missed their aim. 1 sing with a tearful cadenre For one who stands in the dark.

BY KILBOURNE COWLES. foryriRht. J3"l. by Dally Story Pub. Co.) She climbed the five flights of stairs wearily and panted as she drew the big key to her little room from her pocket. It was rather difficult to hold two roils and a letter in one hand while she unlocked the cumbrous door with the other. She was always tired after her day's work in the "atelier," and tonight she seemed to be more so than usual, but her supper and the letter would revive her. The precious letter! It was late perhaps the stormy weather had belated the mail 6teamers. The concierge had smiled quite hu manly when 6he gave it to her. The concierge had a heart after all hidden underneath her stern manner and somewhat soiled neckerchief. Anne had wondered before if she had any softness about her; she was always so grim and forbidding even in her hab itual politeness. Now she knew she had. for she had smiled with actual gentleness when she gave Anne the letter, and poor, lonely little Anne could have kissed her hands in grati tude. The little room was icy cold and Anne put the letter on the mantel, vh're she could look at it while she tmilt her fire and prepared her tea plain ta. At first she had had sugar and milk in her tea; then she found that a thin slice of lemon was much nicer and cheaper. After while she discovered that sugar was a useless luxury, and she had finally come to the conclusion that tea was more strength ening without the lemon. The letter w-as in a blue envelope, a dear blue envelope, and the writing was firm and showed strength of char acter. Anne smiled at the French ad dress. She knew that "Madamoiselle" Teas u!Md for her amusement, so. of course, she was amused. The letter re ally seemed to smile back at her from the mantel, and she crossed the room to liahtly kiss the envelope his lips had sealed. Her pale cheeks filled with color for an instant, and she turned shyly back to the little fire where a copper tea kettle had begun r m if She kissed the envelope, to boil with a semblance of cheerful ness. She ate her butterless rolls slowly and sipped her tea deliberately. This was Anne's way. to be childishly im patient for her letter, and then when it came to save it and hoard it, put ting off the great pleasure of reading It ia order to prolong the delight. The arrival of those missives from over the sea had marked the red letter days In all the months she had lived in her little room in Rue Servandonl. In the summer time she had usually taken the letter into the Jardin du Luxembourg and read it over and over again there in the soft twilight. No one in the garden ever spoke to Anne or disturbed her." Perhaps because her clothes were too shabby and unat tractive, or, more probably, because there was a nun-liko steadiness in the gaze of her deep grsy eyes that dis armed the heedless students who are wont to tease unattended girls. Fot even the American girl, the most free of all creatures, ccuaes in for her share ,,'7V iV'.' ---7? I l ' of good-natured comment In the Quar tler Latin. At last Anno was ready to read her letter. She sank down before the tiny b7aze of her open fire and un sealed It with deliberation, commenc ing Blowly and gradually reading fast er and faster until she finished it in almost feverish haste, whereupon she began at the beginning again and read it over carefully, dwelling In particu lar on one paragraph: "When ! think of the apparent hope lessness of our engagement. I feel that 1 can't in honor bind you to it. My struggles here in my profession have as yet barely gained me meager live lihood, and the time when I can ofTer you even the simplest of homes seems desperately distant. With the ocean stretching between us it is difficult to discuss this vital matter, but. Anne, darling. I want you to know that as dearly as I love you I will not be self ish enough to keep you to a promise that was generously made when hope "Edwin Brown?" repeated Anne, shone more brightly upon us. If the thought of me interferes with your art or arrests your study in any way put me from your mind. I can't bear to feel that I should be a hindrance or a drag to you " Here Anne stopped reading because she could no longer discern the written words through the mist of tears that had gathered over her eyes. She felt blind- i ly about for a handkerchief to bravely dab them away, that she might go on with the letter, which continued in the tenderest phrases to assure her of his constant, unfailing love. She knew that he was sincere: that her welfare was all that actuated the letter. "How like him." she murmured. "No other man but Edwin could write a love letter like that, and I hope he never will again; I could not stand it." When at last she tell asleep, the j letter was clasped in her hands, which lay folded on the steamer rug. an ad dition to the scanty bedding on her cot. and her breath came in quick gasps, like the sobs of a little child. The "atelier" was crowded when she went to her work la the wet clay the next morning, and she hoped to gain her own corner without attract ing attention. But her pale cheeks did not escape the notice of the tall American who was perpetrating a sad ly misshapen figure near her own well blocked out work. ' "Are you not well. Miss Weber?" he asked, with a note in his voice of deeper feeling than the occasion seemed to demand. "Quite well, thank you." Anne re plied wearily, and the young man looked at her reproachfully. He want ed to tell her that she was doing al together wrong, abusing her health, wasting her strength, and. worst of all. breaking his heart, but experience had taught him that it was not a safe ground of conversation. It was the day on which the master, the great Parisian sculptor, was ex pected to criticize, and Anne applied j herself assiduously to her clay, which. under her deft fingers, rapidly grew more and more like the model. "I am through with this." said the young man at length. "I have tested my artistic ability and found that I can't even mold a snow man." He scornfully chopped off the nose of his clay figure, which only added another deformity to the already niaimed-lock-ing creature. "My old man always said that art was not in our blood, but I wanted to see for myself, and it didn't take me long. Don't think I have not realized how impossible my work is, but I have stayed in the atelier you know why and I'll stay yet If you will give me any hope," he added eagerly. "No. don't stay," Anne replied, soft ly. He was such a dear boy she could not be anything but gentle to him. "Well, then." he said, disconsolate ly. "I'll throw art over and go into the string business with Dad. as he has always wanted me to do." "That will be better. I am sure." said Anne, smiling at the mutilated torso, for the young man had been carelessly hacking it while he talked. "The- old man is certainly dead anx ious for the prodigal's return, for I got a fifty-dollar cablegram from him this morning, asking me to pull up stakes and go at once. The dear old chap wants a junior partner, now bus iness looks so bright. He has just won a tremendous lawsuit against a trust; some daring young lawyer car ried the thing through, and Dad is crazy over him. He wrote me some time ago that if the suit was won he intended to retain the chap as per manent counsel for the company. It will be the making of Edwin Bowen. whoever he is!" "Edwin Bowen?" repeated Anne, questionlngly. "Yes, Edwin Bowen. My old man even put his name in the cable, say ing the BUlt was won." "Edwin Bowen!" Anne said again. "Why, do you know him?" "Yes. very well, indeed," she an swered, and then she fell in a little heap on the damp atelier floor, and the students who rushed to aid the young man in bringing her out of the faint, spoke together of the serious consequences of overwork, and they all determined to be more moderate than ever. As soon as she felt strong enough to walk she started back to her room in Rue Servandoni. and the concierge met her at the door of the tall, top pling house wit! a look of alarm, for she knew that cablegrams were seri- ous things, and she bad one for the pale little American madamoiselle. Anne's fingers trembled as she tore it open, and her heart bounded as she read: "Darkest before (lawn success I am coming, my love!" "Nine words beside the address, and no code used." said Anne, vaguely. "It must have cost twice as much as & whole week's living," and she laughed a little hysterically, as she quirUy mounted the long, narrow stairs, for her light heart had gien wings to her feet.

One-half of the world's production of coffee berries is brought to the United States. Last year it was more thr.r. 800.000,000 pounds for the whole coun try, or more than 10 V; pounds a head of the population. Germany and France together only consumed half as much coffee. Germany less than "li pounds a head and France only 4 pounds per capita. Great Britain used little more than half a pound of the berries per head of the population, but over there they made up for It by drinking more tea than any other nation. More than $1,000,000 is sent out of the United States every week in payment for cof fee. South and Central American countries, which supply more than 00. 000.000 pounds of coffee a year, get most of the money. Porto Rico. Java, and the Philippines get almost all the rest, but a little goes to Hawaii, where they produce a very superior brand of coffee berry. Last year the total value of the coffee imported into the United States was about $60,000,000. and that was less than for several years, be cause the import price of coffee lias fallen about one-half.

There are parts of New Jersey within a very short distance of Philadelphia, too. which, strange as it may seem, are but little more known today than they were 200 years ago. In fact, there are portions of the "Pine Barrens" which have never known the tread of a white man. It is this wilderness that a party of naturalists Mr. Stone as chief and Messrs. Rehn and Cog gins a3 assistants, are starting out to explore. Starting from Medford they make a circuitous route, camping as bet they can for seven nights, r.r.'l returning to Medford with their col lections. In a certain sense of the word, this expedition is only prelim inary to others of a more extended nr turc which may follow. Work in thi: reglon must be done by small parties returning frequently to some base of supplies, as food is nearly unobtain able and transportation of heavy load; of specimens impossible.

Old E;ci from Chinese Statesman. Moy Kee, a Chinese restaurateur of Indianapolis. Ind.. received a royal gift a few days ago in the form of 100 eggs that had reached the remark able age of 100 years. They were still good, in fact, according to the Chinese view, better than they were the day they were laid. They had been cured by some process known only to the cooks of China, w ho cater to the man darins and the higher classes exclu sively. They had no' been cooked, nor had the shell been broken. The eggs came from no less a personage that Li Hung Chang, and the enclosad card, a bit of queer paper, half a foot long, expressed to Moy Kee the compliments of the Chinese statesman and wished the son of the Flowery empire a long and happy journey through life.

'RO'B'BErliy OF 2 EST A. TES The supreme court of Wisconsin has found it necessary i-o sound a note of warning to attorneys, and even to courts, so that estates which come into the custody and control of th? courts may not be robbed and dsplet ed. The court sounds its warning in a decision rendered in the suit of Spei ser against the Merchants' Exchange bank, recently reported, and it is creating a sensation in legal circles. Dodge, the court says: "Th? present case is to impressive an illustration that we cannot ignore the duty to make it the text for some general re marks upon a tendency of the bar, and even with courts, which promises to develop into a most serious abus", if it has not already done so. That ten dency is to look upon funds in gremio legis as net sheltered by th-s same rights of ownership, and not entitled to the same protection from extortion ate and unreasonable charges, as if they had remained under the custody and control of their owners. "Some of the demands made against such funds could be justified on'y upon the view that they are already di vested from private ownership: that tiny part thereof which ultimately reaches those to whom they really be long clots so only by grace, or by way of free gift, so that any deduction therefrom, however illogical in char acter or excessive in amount, cannot be subject for complaint by any one." After ponting out that receivers and trustees should be restrained to rea sonable charges, the court continues: "Only in the wise discretion and firm ness of the courts can there be found prevention or remedy for the abuse and disgrace of judicial conservation of estates from their enemies, only to permit their destruction by the very salvors. If such abuses continue, the beneficent power of a court of equity to take to its sheltering arms a liti gated estate while rights to it are be ing established will become a mock ery worse than the avoided perils as it is more effective. The record before us presents one of the mcst extreme cases of affirmative misconduct on the part of a receiver within the history of the court." There has been a tenden cy upon the part of witnesses to assert the failure to remember when qurs- Pledges Russia's Friendship In discussing the tariff dispute be tween this country and Russia Vladi mir A. Teplow. Russian consul general, says: The whole trouble is due to a misunderstanding on the part of the United States. Russia has not a boun ty on sugar, as is reported. The 1'nited States minister has not ade quately examined into the matter of Russian tariffs. He should do so and report to the people here. If he did so there would not be any misunder standing. Russia and the 1'nited States have too many interests that are mutual for either one to be able to afford to oppose the other. And I wish to say that there is no desire on the part of Russia to oppose this country. Our in terests commercially are identical, and we wish America all the progress and prosperity that can come to her. It is absurd to say that we favor Germany. The T'nited States is our nearest neigh bor. You can land goods in Russia from San Francisco with much greater facility that Germany can from any part of her territory. Certainly. Rus sia is looking for the cheapest market in which to buy her goods, and that market is the 1'nited States. Siberia is a large country, and when it is opened, which will be in about two years. America will have it for a market almot exclusively. Siberia will want everything that she can use JAPANESE The determination of Japan to be come in every sense a modern nation is in no line of development made more plain than in the matter of shipyards. The Tokio shipyard, covering fully 60 acres. Is reported as wnploying 3.000 men. who have all the latest machin ery, including pneumatic riveters. Six steamers of 180.000 tons are on the Etocks. The fact that the works are equipped with electricity is a further indication of the progressive spirit now ruling. The shipbuilding yard at Nagasaki is also going ahead, but special interest attaches to the new goernment steel works. Some 5.000.000 yens have al ready been spent, but 15.000.000 yens have been voted. Th works are on the eastern shores of Kiushiu. the most southern of the large islands forming the empire, and are. therefore, con tiguous to China. The establishment, which covers 230 acres, is close by the coal fields, connected with the railway, and a seaport, having over 20 feet of water will be convenient for the ship ping of the finished products to the northern islands, and also to China, which ultimately must become a large customer. The works are thoroughly equipped. In addition to blast furnaces there are coke ovens, and in the stel department open hearth Bessemer furnaces with a full set of rolling mills for roughing, three bar mills, as well as rail, sheet and plate rolls. There are steel and iron foandarlrn:. boiler shops, laboratories, testing and other depart ments. The works will soon be put in operation construction being far ad vanced.

Of this class of testi mony the court says it is "that form of falsification. 'I can't remember.' which has been classic since the trial of Queen Caroline." In the case under consideration the court refuses to allow the receiver any compensation and severely criticises his conduct in dealing with the fund3 entrusted to his care, saying that h'.s actions "convct him of such breaches of the most important and highest duties of a receiver that both the ref eree and the court should, without hesitation, have imposed, as the leas: penalty, entire exclusion from any al lowance by way of compensatian." Milwaukee Wisconsin. Lincoln Population rrupbeoT. ' During the civil war President Lin coln discussed the impracticability of maintaining a dissevered country." says Prof. Lewis ,M. Haupt. in Lippin cott's. "and submitted soma proposed amendments to the constitution look ing to the elimination of slavery, without which, he raid, 'the rebellion could never have existed.' His plan was to purchase emancipation in a p? riod of thirty-seven years, and he en tered inio an e'aboraie argument to show that this would be more prud?n; ana mere economical than to contin ue the war. Th's led him to forecast the probable increase in population, which he believed would continue at its normal rate of growth. He fcaid: 'At the same ratio of in crease which we have maintained on an average from cur first national cen sus in 1790 until that of I860, we should in 1900 have a population of 103.208.41.".. and why nay we not con tinve that latio far beyond that pe riod?

This is no ! time for her to change her sentimentt j There is rumor of a concert of the European nations against the 1'nited j States to check the commercial prog ress that this country is making. In j my opinion, such a coalition can never j be made. But if such a thing could j possibly happen, you may be sure that ! Russia would not make one of the op j position.

Raialng tha Rent. There is a lktle two-story house in West Philadelphia occupied by two families, one on each floor. Of late there has been a marked coldness be tween them.

Mrs. Judge McAllister -writes from 1217 West S3rd St., Minneapolis, Minn., as follows: "I suffered for years with a pain in the small of my back and right side. It interfered often with my domestic and social duties and l never supposed that I would be cured, as the doctor's medicine did not seem to help me any. "Fortunately a member of our Order advised me to try Peruna and gave it such high praise that I decided to try it. Although I started in with little faith.

Perfect health once more is the best thing I could wish for, and thanks to Peruna enjoy that now." Minnie E. McAllister. The great popularity of Peruna as a catarrh remedy has tempted many people to Imitate Peruna. A great many Bo-called catarrh remedies and catarrhal tonics are to be found in many drug stores. These remedies can be procured by the druggist much cheaper than Peruna. Peruna can only be obtained at a uniform price, and no druggist can get it a cent cheaper. Thus it is that druggists are tempted to substitute the cheap imitations or Peruna for Peruna. It is done every day without a doubt. We would therefore caution all peo- Fivk's Profcndity.
