According to the following story economy has its pains as well as it pleasures even after the saving is done. One spring for some reason , old Eli was going round town with the face of dissatisfaction and when questioned poured forth his voluble tale of woe thus : "Marse Geo'ge he come to me last fall an' he say , 'Eli , dis gwine ter be a hard winter , so yo' be keerful an' save yo' wages fas' an' tight. ' 'An' I b'lieve Marse Geo'ge , yes , sah , I b'lieve him , an' I save an' I save , an' when de winter came it ain't got no hardship , an' dere was I wid all dat money jes' frown on mah hands ! " CANADA FORGING AHEAD. , Thomas C. Shotwell , one of the greatest market reporters in America , writes from New York , under date of March 20th , and says : "The tariff tangle with Canada .which President Taft has taken in hand is of importance chiefly because of the multitude of American farmers - that , are crossing into . the Canadian northwest. Most conservative esti- mates of their number place it at 150,000 for 1910. Some say as many as 250,000 will cross. These are all expert farmers and their places in the United States are being filled by un trained men from Europe and from the cities. Canada is gaining rapidly in agricultural importance and within a few years the United States will have to call on the Dominion for wheat. Production , of wheat is the United States is not keeping pace with the population. A tariff war would complicate the problem of getting food. Even now Canadian farmers are getting higher prices for their cat tle on the hoof , and Candian house wives are paying less for meat in the butcher shops than farmers and house- wives are receiving and paying in the United States. The tariff on cattle and wheat must be removed as be- tween the two countries before long. " 1 I 1riP , : : : " ; . ' jTj . , z' ' : : , , ' . ' , . .r' ' 'l" . ' . ; _ _ \1.il..r..i.1 . . . ' .

OR The Devil-Stick By tha Author of "The Mystery of a Hansom Cab , " Etc. . -0 -c. CHAPTER XIX. - ( Continued. ) "And what did you do ? " asked Jen , much interested in this strange his- tory. "I went in later on , and found thai my mother had gone to bed. I said nothing at the time , as I was afraid of Dido. Afterwards , when Maurice was killed , and you said that the devil- stick had killed him , I went to Dido and accused her of the crime. She was fearfully angry , and warned me that if I said a word about the theft of the devil-stick , I would be in dan- ger of hanging my own mother. Afraid lest such an accusation should kill my mother , who is not strong , I said noth- ing to her , or indeed to anyone. I told a lie to you to save my mother ; what else could I do ? But now I tell you the truth , and I wish you to protect us both against the evil of Dido and Dr. Etwald. " "You believe that Dr. Etwald killed Maurice ? " "I am sure of it. When I became ill through the terror of the secret which I possessed , Dido prepared that poison under the pretence of curing me , but I now know that she did so to re-fill the devil-stick. She then sent it to Etwald , and he killed Maurice. Also he stole the body with the as- sistance of Dido. " Major : Jen moved a step towards the 3oor : of the summer-house. All at once he paused and looked back. "One moment , Miss : Dallas ! " he said , quickly. "Does David know about the theft of the devil-stick ? That is , " he added , more precisely , "does he know that your mother stole it ? " "I cannot be quite certain if he does , " Eaid Isabella , after a pause , "but I fancy he has some idea of it. When he has seen me of late he has always been so nervous and silent. At our last meeting , also , he told me that we were to fear nothing. " "H'm ! " said Jen , reflectively. "Un- doubtedly you are right , Miss : Dallas. David must have learned the truth in how. some way ; but I cannot imagine Well , good-by , good-by. I shall seft you later on , when we have this scoun drel under lock and key. " On consideration , Jen thought it would be best to say nothing definite to David about his discovery. If the young man , from a feeling of honor Jowards an unhappy woman , kept -i- ient , the Major was the last person in ihe world to tempt him to break : t. Jen decided to merely hint to David that he .knew the truth , and to let the arrest of Etwald tell its own tale , and unseal the lad's lips , by showing that Mrs. Dallas was innocent. As Jen came to this conclusion , he entered his own gates , and rather to his surprise he ; toet David , considerably agitated , advancing to meet him. "Inspector Arkel and Dr. Etwald are waiting for you in the library , " said . Sarby , rapidly. "I know it. I sent for them. I wish the first to arrest the second. " "Arrest Dr. Etwald ! On what grounds ? " "On the grounds of having murdered Maurice , " said Jen , coldly. "Yes , you may look astonished , David , but it is the truth. Without your assistance I have discovered that Etwald is guilty. Also , " added the Major : , in a kindly tone , "I know the reason of your si- lence. " "Who-who told you ? " stammered the ; young man , as pale as death. "Miss : Dallas. " "Isabella ! " David looked terrified. CHAPTER XX. Before Jen had time to inuiqre the neaning of David's strange exclama- tion , the young man had turned on his heel and was walking rapidly back to the house. Surprised by this behavior , and suspicious of its reason , the Ma- jor called out to him to stop ; but , without taking any notice , the young man increased his pace , and was soon lost to sight. Jen went after him , and on entering the library found that only Arkel was present. "Wllere is Dr. Etwald ? " demanded the Major : anxiously. "He went up stairs a few minutes ago to see your servant , " replied the Inspector , rising. "Mr. Sarby was with him. " Jen started. Evidently David had returned before him in order to see Etwald , and , to gain private speech with the doctor , had conducted him to laggard's sick-room. For the moment Fen - still suspicious of Sarby's beha- \ Mor - had it in his mind to follow ; but a few minutes of reflection con- incccl him that this was unnecessary. David did not know all the conversa- tion which had taken place between himself and Isabella , therefore be could inform Etwald of nothing new. BIK , indeed , the Major : pondered why David wished to speak privately with the doctor. It looked , to his mind , as though the two men were in league. "Well , never mind Dr. Etwald just now , " he said , aloud. "He had his du- ties to perform , and I have mine. Sit down , Mr. Arkel. I suppose you won- der why I have sent for you. " "Well , no , Major. : I presume it is in connection with the case. " "You are right. I wish to know if you have discovered anything new. " "Yes. Your messenger , Battersea , was wandering about your grounds on that night. " "Battersea ! " cried Jen , thunder- struck. "Did .he see the body carried off ? " "He did not see it taken out of the louse , " explained Arkel , referring to some notes which he held in his hand , "but he saw it put into the carriage , which was waiting in the winding lane at the foot of your grounds. Two peo ple carried the body between them-a . man and a woman-but Battersea can- not give me their names. " "I can , however , " said Jen , grimly. "I'll give you the names later on Mr. Inspector. In the meantime , be goorl enough to conclude your report of Bat- tersea's confession. It interests me deeply. " "I thought it would , " replied Arkel , with a look of satisfaction. "Well , the man and the - . woman put the body into the carriage-a doctor's brougham. When the body was placed in the car- riage and the door closed , the woman went away. The man mounted the carriage-box and drove off. It appears that there was no coachman. " "I don't wonder at that , " rejoined the Major. : "This precious pair were afraid ' to trust their secret to a. third party. No doubt , the horse , being quiet , was left to stand in the deep shadow of the lane while the robbers stole the corpse. _ However , I understand. The 4 woman went away , the man mounted the box , and I suppose drove off with the corpse. " "Also with Battersea , " added Arkel , with a significant smile. "It seems that the tramp wished to see the end of this singular adventure , or , no doubt , he wished to make money out of it. Well , he was driven with the carriage to Deanminster. " "Quite so , and into that gloomy courtyard which surrounds the house of Dr. Etwald , " added Major Jen , with a satisfied smile. "Battersea saw the doctor take the body out of the car- riage and carry it into the house. Then , on his return-Etwald's , I mean - : - he unharnessed the horse and put it into the stable ; also the carriage into the coach-house. Is that not so , Mr. Ar- kel : ? " 'Battersea told you so , " stammered Arkel , amazed at his insight. "I assure you he told me nothnr " . But I am as clover at Battersea , and can put two and two together. Next day Battersea went to Etwald , did he not , and tried to blackmail him , but this clever doctor compelled him to keep silent ? I know a great many things , Mr. Inspector. For instance , I know that the woman who assisted Dr. Etwald to steal the body is Dido ; also that Dr. Etwald is a murderer as well as a thief. " "If I had only known that , I would have had the warrant altered. " "What ! " cried Jen with , an expres- sion of ferocious joy lighting up his face , "you have a warrant for the ar rest of Etwald ? " "Yes , but on the charge of stealing the body only. I took it out after hear- ing the evidence of the tramp Batter- sea. " "Very good. Then you can take out a warrant for his arrest as a murderer , after hearing my evidence. I swear on my sacred honor , that Maurice Aylmer was killed : by Max Etwald ! " At this moment the door of the li - brary opened slowly , and Dr. Etwald , calm and composed , appeared on tht threshold. Behind him , over his shoul- der , peered the pale countenance of David. From the ironical look on the doctor's face it would appear that he had overheard the accusation of the Major , and was prepared to treat it with contempt. That such was the ! case appeared by the first words which . ] issued from his mouth as he faced his 4 accuser. , "I hear the name of Max Etwald ( coupled with the crime of murder. Is : this the way you treat your guests , I Major ? " "You are not my guest , " retorted 1 Jen , furiously. "No ; rather your victim , seeing that you have lured me into a trap. It is i : : not to see Jaggard that you asked me I here ; but rather to force me-if you can into confessing that I am guilty of a triple crime. " "You make one mistake , sir , " said Jen , coldly. "I accused you of two crimes , not of three. " "Ah , you are lenient , " replied Etwald , a shade of surprise passing over his features , a surprise which was reflect : ed in the agitated face of David Sar- by. "Well , sir , let me hear of what I am accused. " With the utmost coolness , he enter- ed the room and sat down in a chair near Arkel. The inspector , with his hand in his breast-pocket , fingered the warrant , but did not deem it wise to execute it until he had heard what proof the Major : possessed against Et : wald for the murder of Maurice Ayl- mer. David sat down near the door , . . I and followed every movement of the scene which ensued with keen eyes. Thus , three of the occupants' the apartmentwere seated-Sarby , Arkel , and Etwald. Only one man stood up- Major : Jen - and he stood as the accus- er. : "Dr. Etwald , " said the Major , with great calmness and deliberation , " yDu : clever and ambitious who are a \ man , I wishes to make his way in the world , but has hitherto failed to do so for lack of money. To procure money for your experiments ' in chemistry , you would do anythIng-even marry a rich j woman ! " "Or murder the man formerly en- gaged to her , " retorted Etwald , with a pale smile. "Go on , Major Jen , I see the mark you are aiming at. " "You found this rich. match here , " resumed Jen , without noticing the in- erruption : , "in the person. of Miss Dal- las , already engaged to ihe late Mr. Aylmer. You loved her , and wanted your rival out of the way. To do so t you had the devil-stick stolen. " "Ho , ho ! and by whom ? " "Mrs. Dallas stole the devil-stick , and gave it to Dido , who , by your di- rections , filled it with fresh poison. Dido helped you to do so , and drugged of death to you , and with it you killed - - ; . my poor' bOY at the very' gates of the girl he loved. Afterwards you stole the body of the man you murdered. Dido helped you to do so , and drugged my servant , Jaggard , with the perfume of the devil-stick poison , in order that the theft might be carried out with safety. " "It would seem that Dido has a great deal to do with these matters , " said Etwald , looking up to the roof. "She has everything to do with them. She will be brought against you as a witness. " "Indeed. Then it appears that I am to be arrested. " "I can answer that , " broke in Arkol , amazed at the self-possession of the man. "I have here a warrant to arrest you for stealing the body of Maurice Aylmer. " , "How can you prove that I did so ? " he demanded. I "By the evidence of the tramp Bat- tersea. " "Battersea ! " repeated the doctor , and for the first time he frowned. "Yes. He saw you place the body in the brougham , with the assistance of Dido. He followed you to Deanmin- ster , and saw you take the- body into your house. " "Oh , thensaid Etwald , turning - wards Jen. "I am not to be accused of the murder. " "Later on , my friend Cain , " said th-2 Major , grimly. "You will have quite enough to do to save your neck from the halter. " "I am afraid so , Indeed , Major ; therefore , I must have assistance. There is nothing like being provided in time with counsel for the defence ; therefore , I must ask Mr. David Sarby to defend me from these absurd charges. " "I ! " cried David , starting up with pale cheeks. "I defend you ! " "Assuredly , " replied Etwald , fixing a piercing glance on the young man. "Do you refuse ? " "Of course he does , " cried Jen , wrathfully. David raised his head and looked 'tt the Major , at the doctor , at the In- spector. "No , " said he , in a firm voice to Jill three , "I accept. I shall defend i\Iai : Etwald. " ( To ne continued. ) LUNCHES AT ONE CENT EACH. . They Are Fed to Half-Fed Chil Ill'enVho Would Ilesent Charity. A heaping portion of Indian pudding with milk and two crackers : was the menu for thel-cent lunch served at the Wintbrop School yesterday , and as long as the service proves as success- ful as it has in the past the lunches h ii ! be continued at 10:30 each morn ing , so that none of the little children who come to school with appetites half-satisfied need go home famished. The high cost of living which has ! shaved down the breakfasts : at home almost to a minimum operates to send some children to school with insuffi cient nourishment to do justice to themselves in their work , the Boston Post says. At the Winthrop School it was de cided that any plan that seemed to in clude charity would prove ' a failure , as children are the quickest persons to- form class barriers and look down on their playmates who may not be able to have food enough at home. Miss : Emmeline F. Torrey teacher of domestic science , believes that she has solved the problem in the 1-cent lunches served each morning. If cost of preparation and service were added it would be impossible to make the meal otherwise than charitable , so Miss Torrey has a class of eighteen girls , ranging in age from 10 to 13 , prepare the dishes and serve them. Thus the cent that the children pay covers the entire cost. The cup of pudding and crackers together with the milk , which was served yesterday to each hungry pu pil [ had enough nutriment in it to equal nearly three large slices of bread , with butter. The quality , Miss Torrey said , was well suited for the needs of the children. All the teachers in the school say , that the tentative working : of the plan thus far has been to provide much more wideawake children after the lunch hour and to do away with the eagerness to have school dismissed. How Roberts Won the Victoria Cro.sH Roberts noted that a sowar of the squardon with which he rode 'was in great danger from a sepoy with a fixed bayonet. The contest of sword against bayonet would have ended dis astrously had not Roberts intervened and disposed of the bayonet. That was barely done when he noticed in the distance two sepoys fleeing with a standard. He galloped after the reb- els and overtook them , and then he had a close fight for the possession of the standard. He cut down its chief bearer. While wrenching the staff from the man's grasp with both of his liands the other sepoy turned his musket on him and fired. The muzzle was within a few inches of Roberts' person , and there would cer- ta : .1Iy have been an end of him had not the musket refused to go off. As it was , he rode away unhurt with the standard , and for those two courage- - ous and gallant acts in close succes sion Roberts got the Victoria cross. Cobban's "Life of Roberts.
