Old Abner Marsden moved uneasily la his big1 arm-chair. Scorns to mo -uco is a michtv lone time eettincr that water." ho muttered, as he rose and hobbled to the end of tbe cottage porch. Ho put aside the vines that screened the view and looked down toward the lower end of the garden where a cool spring gurgled up from the earth. "Well, if she ain't talkin1 again with that pauper. Ang How land," growled the old man. "Luce! Say. I uc, I want you!" ho called. Til bo there in a minutr father." called back a comely girl of eighteen, who stood near the spring chatting with a plainly dressed youth of about the same age. She reached for the pail of water which Angus Howland still held in his hand, and said with a smile: "I must go, Ang; father wants me." "It eeems to ma Luco." said An gu& us ho gavo her tbe pail -that our father always wants you when j ho sees me around. He hales me for ' -ome reason, but if it s all right with ion I can stand it" Lucia looked troubled as she said. Good-by. Ang." and turned towards ihe house. Luce." said the old man. as she appeared at the door. ! want this to bo the last of your talking to that good-for-nothing lout Ang. Howland. The idea of a likely girl like you talk ing friendly with such trash! I won't have it. and if he don't steer clear I'll give him something to remember me by. " and the old man shook his big oak cane vigorously. "I do not seo why you should dis like him so." said Lucia. "He has a hard tlmo getting along, but that isn't his fault" "ILs father was cut out to dio in tho poor house." yelled the old man. and why didn't he die there?" "Because," Lucia answered, "Ang worked hard and took caro of the old folks." Her father scowled. 'Old How land was intenuea for the poorhouse and no good comes of fightlu' Provi dence. He died without a cent and so will the young feller. But that ain't tho point; thoro are plenty of fellers ' round hore that has money, but there ain't many secli gals us you bo. I reckon. Why. .uce. you have th choice of the town, and it's your solemn duty not to be rash." The miserly features of tho old man relaxed somewhat as he admired his daughters comely looks. He experienced a kind of fatherly affection for her and was even willing to spend money ireely that she might make a good appearance. Whenever he saw her dressed in somo new article of apparel he would mutter to himself: -It's all right; it will all como back; I know n good invest ment, for I have made a good many yes. a good many." A few evenings after tho event above mentioned Lucia was walking in the garden, when she heard some ono tap lightly on the gate, and in the moonlight saw Angus Howland. Ho wan to to seo me," she thought as sho hurried through the lilacs to the garden path. "Fathor will miss mo if I am gono long. " said Lucia, on approaching, -but we can visit for a moment " "Luce." said Angus, "I have como to say good-by. Your father says for me to keep aray from you because I am poor and ho doesn't want you to marry a pauper. Well I am going away lor nve yeara ana wiin l come back I'll be rich rich enough to suit your lather." ho exclaimed excitedly, striking tho fence a heavy blow with his fist I don't ca'-e about your being so rich." said Lucia "I'll like you just as well if you are poor, but don't stay away so long." and she looked be- i seechmgly into his face. "You maj' have bad luck, you know, anrl not earn very much money after all. but I'll think just as much of you. Are you' going far? 'she asked. looking down at the ground. "To California" said Angus. nd 1 know just what I shall do when I get there too. Father often told me of a valley in California where all sorts of fruit will grow a most with out cultivation. Fathor wandered down there when ho was out among the mines, and. boing used to a fruit country, he knew just what a wonder ful place it was He'd have gone there himself if his sickness hadn't come on, but he told me about it time and 1 gain, and he gave me this little map. ' and Howland took an old torn paper from his pocket and carefully opening it pointed out to Lucia by the bright moonlight which broke through the trees the Eldorado of his hopes and ambition. "That vallcj is mine." said ha "and I am going there and plant trees." "Luce! ' called old Marsden from tbe house, "where be you." "Here I am father. " Lucia replied. "Well it seems to me that you are a mighty long time gone. " cried the old man. "but come to the house, for young Hinton is here and wants to seo you." Lucia saw the troubled look that came into Howland' s face and hastily murmured: "Father wants me to mar ry him but I won't; I'll marry you. Be sure and write often and don't stay so long." she pleaded, as she raised her face for a farewell kiss. The next morning old Marsden said to his daughter with an inquisitive look: "Young Hinton didn't stay long last n ght did he?" "No." answered Lucia" not very long." Did l:e asJc you lo have him?" added the old man. -Yes. father, he did." answered Lucia -but I told him I couldn't" lold him you couldn't." screamed the oiu man. Why couldn't you?" because I don't lovo him." said daughter, looking her father the steadily in the eya "Love him. Luce! I tell ye people don't marry for lova They raarrv to make n good thing. When Ihey get the worst of Hit's like any other bad ' bargain; but young Hinton has money nud. 1 uca you'd better chango your I mind an-1 send him word that you : liko him well enough. I'll give you a good start and you'll find .out tbat yoa have a pretty good old Uil. dad after j Lucia kissed plied: her father, but re- I Cot him. I can never him." marry J he years crant slowlv bv and oa-ht tju.ir ! ,U0flqr pright and cloudy days. Lucia bad ffrowa taller and mora be&utifdL Her fathar waa still as grasping as eer. "i agree with ydu. Luce..' be tisod to bay; "there's tid special hurry; bilk you drop them almost too quick sdm times, it seems to ma" One day ho hobbled into the room where Lucia sat at work, and said in a severe low tone: I hear that you get letters from that Ang Howland. Is it true?" "I have received letters from hint'1 Lucia replied, "and he is doing very welL I understand." "I don't care how ho is doing. That feller '11 die poor." growled the old man. He went outside and sat down on the garden bench. "I'll see Cicely." said ha with a crafty look on his face. Cicely was the girl who sorted and dealt out the mall at the village post office. Not long after this Luc a ceased receiving letters with a California postmark. Time passed and it was now nearly ton years since Lucia and Angus had stood at the garden gate and said good-by. Old Marsden bad fallen into a state of despondency o utterly abject that Lucia was sometimes on the point of yielding to his wishea but sho thought: "I'll wait awhile longer; something has happened or he'd never have broken his word." One day her father called her to him. He was unable to get about the house now. but lay propped up in his chair all day with his eyes closed, a very unhappy old man. "Luca" said ha "I'll make short work of it The last investment I made 1 staked all and lost It was tho first time. Luca and your poor father has made many a bargain in his day. but this timo has outdone them all. In a month from now we won't have a house to cover our beads. I hoped this sick ness mi'ht hurry me off bat I seo it's going to give me lime and I'll have to go to the poorhousa Luca unlesa" and the old man looked at her pitiful ly. unless you save your dad!" Til work for you!" cried Lucia You shall never go to the poor house." And she was more tender in the care of her father after that Ono day as she stood near her fa vorito bed of flowera sadly thinking how soon she would have to leave them a voice broke the silence of her meditntiona "I beg your pardon, but your flowers look very pretty and I had to stop to admire them." and looking up Lucia saw a tall well dressed gentleman standing at the garden gata I raise a groat many flowers myself. " said the gentleman, and I always ta'co an interest in them, but I livo in a flower country, where they grow much moro lux uriautly than here." Lucia gavo a startled look but no; how foolish; it couldn't he ha An gus Howland could never have de veloped into such a handsome man. "1 de.-lare. Luce, you don't know ma" said the gentleman, with a smile. Ob. Ang! I know you now. Tor you speak with your old voica but you have been away a long tima" You stopped writing, and I read in a California paper that you wcro married." said Angus. but recently I learned that it was a false report and 1 am here once more to ask you to be mina" Father, this gentleman wishes lo see you." said Lucia as she ushered Howland into her fathers room. The old man murmured: "Well have a chair." "I understand you have suffered a misfortuna " said the gentleman, kindly- The old gentleman groaned. "I'll bavo to die in the poor-house; there' s no help for it" It may not be 60 bad as that" said the gentleman. . The old man turned on him fierce ly. "What do you want with ma I'd like to know? Ain't it bad enough to be ruined, but a lot of vultures have got to como and hover around me be fore I'm dead?" I have boon investigating the matter." said the gentleman, '-and I am sure that it is not so bad as you think, and here is evidence that you will not be turned out of your home at any rata" and ho opened beforo tho old man's eyes tho cancelled mortgaga "The place is youra" said tho gentloman. "and all your other property is safe for I have been making investigations." Who are you." cried old Marsden. "that comes at such a time and saves me from the poorhouse?'' "It's not so bad as that" said tho gonllcman. smiling, "but my name is Angus Howland." The remaining few months of the old man's life worked a great change in his character. One day when tbe autumn leaves were turn.ng he callod his children lo him- "Good-by." said he; "I am going. You are a good boy. Ang. and will mako her happy. " and he closed his eyes for ever. Chicago News. TOO MUCH PUSH. The Independence of Amcr'ean Tonne People Merges Into Kndeueu A girl walked into a big dry goods store and asked tho head of one of tbe departments whether he wanted any moro girls in the workroom. The gentleman said no. The girL who was respectable in appearance and presumably of decent family, would not accept the negative answer but put the question again in a slight ly louder lona -I have all tho girls I want " was the reply." But won't you want some one after awhile?" ".a" I was told that you did want soma " persisted the applicant '-You are mistaken. I do not" The girl looked doubtfully and defiantly at the gentleman and walked out Turning to a lady with whom he was talking the gentleman said: "Did you see tuat? She sar that I was en gaged, but she stalked up to me and interposed as boldly as possible. I have no use for girls of that kind. If she pushod herself forward now. how would she be upstairs with the other girls? I would not tend such a girl up lo my young ladiea A girl with out a certa'n amount of modesty and apparent diffidence in her composition will never get above a lowly position."

I SALMON IN THfi OCfiAN. Where tfca Paral Ftoh 0e WMa Leave Fresb Water. Tay .Thinking that prdbab'ly the follow ing would throw scime light on tho question asked in Forest and Stream Where do the salmon go to whon they leave the fresh water streams? ' I give it to you: Two years ago this month my brother, while trolling for skipjackj from the deck of a schooner, twclvo miles off this coast booked and landed a 20-pound Chinook salmon a fe rn ala The lure was a bit of white cloth on a large hook. One year ago Captain Olscn of the tugboat J. M. L'olman. while still a fishing for groupers four m lea of shore hooked and landed a silver sido.salmon on a codfish book with a clam for bafe When ho told mo of the circumstance I immoiiatoly sent to Seattle for a Hwash or Indian salmon trolling rig. which I gavo him and told him to try. This ho did. hooking and landing one silver side of about fifteen pounds. Recently I met at Sealand Capfain I'arrar. of (ho deep sen fishing schooner South Benl who told mo that throe weeks aga whMo lying bo ca'mcd si; miles off shora to Das 3 the time away he was fishing with four lines for grouper. A slight wind springing up the lines towed astern from five to ten fathoms off tho" bottom in thirty-five or forty fath oms of water, w-hen he heoked and lost a large black codfish. Then ho hooked and lost at the vessel's tide two royal (. hinooi salmon. Tn king the hint he sent for some trolling syoona which ho used with four-pound sinkers, trolling about thirty fathoms deep in forty fathoms or wutiir. He hooked thirteen Chi nooks all lold. tho majority of which escaped, na though not being very well posted in trolling tactics he had mado the lines fatrt to the schoon er's rail, causing the hooks lo tear such largo boles in tho fishes' under jaws (they wero sll hooked on tho outside of the mouth under tho lower jaw) that whon it came timo to gaff them they, at sight of the gaT. made such desperato efforts to escape that they in several instancoi succeeded IT'S BUSINESS. Ono Way to Sell Inferior Good Without Loss of Krputatlott. It was a patented artielo and seemed to havo u fairly good salo says the Detroit Freo Tress, but the manufacturer was troubled. "I don't aecm to be able lo keep them up to the standard." ho ex plained. "Every now and then tho men get careless or something goes wrong and tomo inferior articles aro turned out and every one sold does us harm. It destrovs confidonce in the rest" 'h well there's a way to stop that" said the patent medicine man who had his feet on a desk and was pulling earnestly at a cigar. Throw away everything that doesn't come up to the standard set I supposo?"' said the manufacturer. That's one way." I'ut I can't afford it Think of the hole it would make in iny profits." Of course And it would be a criminal wasla too. Sell 'em. my friend sell iho worst of em. but ad vertise everywhere -Beware of imita tions." For what purpose?" So that when a man gets one that's inferior he'll think it's an imi tation. That's the way to sell tho bad with tho good without hurting your reputation."

The stngo was waiting. I sent to have h m summoned by tho call-boy. Ho re turned in a moment and told me that M.sMounot-SulIy could not come down from his drossing-room then, because bis costume wus not quite ready. What! It was inisbed a week ago that costumo. It was tried on and worn. It is complola and per'ect Yea the costume was com pie to; but under his doublet M.

I WAS IT THE CAT?; 1 A man in Lnwrenceburg, Intl.. was bitten by n cat while at work in a distil lery. Fearing hydrophobia he immersed his arm in a tub of spirits and drank a. quart of whisky, lie became pale and' trembled after this, and then drank an other quart. Going home be retired to his room and within an hour he was , dead. The only query is, did he die of fright or whisky? For it is evident that the cat is not in it. This foolish conduct is parallelled by many men who thinkthey must drink whisky whenever they take cold. To over stimulate the system is as bad on the one hand as to under stitnu- ( late it on the other. When you take cold, do not drink whisky, for whiikyr cough is about thc.most difficult thing to cure in the world. Whisky congests the blood vessels in the stomach as well as i in the lungs, and while it injures the di- gestion, it also prevents the lungs from Toing their work. Get a bottle of Iteid's German Cough and Kidney Core and take it fretlv. It will certainly cure you. Every druggist has it. Small bot . ties at 23 cents, large size 50 cents. Sylvan Remedy Co...
