Possibly linker Dick had been dozing when tie toppled over and had been killed by the fall. Poaslbly apoplexy had brought about the fall. Noboly knew and the physician could not state the exact cause of death , but Unkcr Dick was dead when they found him lying tlicro on the edge of the creek where Abium had dragged him. Next day Into the cabin stepped two fig ures , a tall , grave wlvltu man and a fell in young girl wearing a white dress , Each brought n floral piece. With soft steps they jiasaod between the rows of mouiners and stood reverently hcsldo the blcr. A woman turned the sheet back. " 0 , Unker Dick ! " the girl cried , and knelt down , gobbing. In the gentleman's gray uyea a mist had calnerud , Thu hand with which he lifted Ills sister trembled. Together they placed a crown and a wreath of whlto flowers on the chill breast and at the sllll feet. AnJ the bunches which bid already been placed there by black handa the girl sprinkled and i ear- ranged. Then eho had como to Ms mammy and bent over tbo poor pickaninny. "Poor llttlo boy ! " Eho had said , softly pat- < lng him. She had spoken words of comfort to his mother , and to himself had said some things , the sweet sound of which he had never lost , though ho could not recall their sense.

Dorothy hnd married a great and rich man and had coma back on a visit to the town which was In the neighborhood of her old home. Abram , who Old not know how to find her In town and whose enterprise rarely took htm so far , had lain In wait In country byways Tor the passing of the trap which ho know to bo hers , yet so far his perseverance had been unrewarded by a close vision of herself. Now that she was really before him It seemed to bo too good a thing to ho true. Ho stood devouring her with bright affectionate eyes. "Where's your mammy ? " "Sho done dald. " Into her toll eyes something like dewdrops - drops gathered. "And your sisters ? Where's Polly ? " "Sho done got married. " "And Dclle ? Married too ? " "Yassam. Do got chlllun. " "Who takes care of you ? " Ho grinned. "I takes kcer o' myse'f. " "Don't you live with your sisters ? " " 0 , yassam ! I at do house sometimes. DC got chlllun. Do got little house. " "What did you want to ace mo for , Abram ? " Her hand was on her purse- strings. "Dcs case you ray young mlstcso thankee ! " ho had caught the dollar which she held out. Of course he had expected a present but nothing Ilka this ! The expecta tion of the present , too , had been an Incident and not a motive. It had not been that he had wanted It so much , but that ho was sure she would give It because she was herself. Ho watclicd her with fascinated c > cs as nho climbed Into her trap and gathered up ' ' ' "DE3 WA1T1N' T'WKLL MY YOUNG MIST11ESS COMES OUT 0' DAU.

Dorothy , young 'Mrs Vernon , had not forgotten It nor the clrcun.stances which had Impressed Its owner's personality upon her. Her face aoftened. This little ragged clgger was Unlter Dick's son. Unker Dick ! how many B'\tct pictures of hup childhood rushed upon her with that name \-l\c \ had sat upon his knee many a time and listened to his stories. Ho had 'brought ' her partridge eggs , hatsful of them , fr in the harvest Held. Once ho liad 'brought her a soft , motherless baby rabbit that had been found In the wheat , telling her that he had looked for its mother first and faillr.g to find her had been sure "llttlo missy" would mother It. Ho had been her father's carriage driver and many a tlino weary Journeys had been ( broken for her by a change to the bet seat 'beside ' him and the 'birds and squirrels and wild things which they passed had been common property of talk 'between ' them. How many times had she dropped asleep her reins while livery mounted the box be hind and ( prepared to tuin himself into a statue.

In the last twenty- years population has risen from 45,000,000 to 71,000,000 souls , an In crease of 58 per cost , and at thu same time the weight of ex. ports has risen 175 per cent ; that Is , three times as fast as population , nro sufficient to feed 30,000,000 persons In The quantities of fool expoited yearly Europe , from which It appears that Ameri can farms raise food for 100,000,000 people yearly.

HART'S ' INVALUABLE LEGS They Wera Liberally Instrod Before Ho Tell and Lost Ihom. STORY OF A THRIFTY KANSAS MAN Hlii Mnnln for- ' Accident Innnrniioe Worked ( oUU - Limit Tlicu it Clilrng-n Street nnil Snr- Kcnnn DM ( lie Kent * The story of John \V. Hlllmon , a Kansani of Insurance fame , Is familiar to nearly every man , woman nd child In the United States. It has been printed In every news paper Ih this country. The Insurance com panies believe , or pretend to believe , that Hlllmon Is still alive and that ho Is smart enough to keep out of their clutches. Evan so , lllllmon IB a novice compared with an other citizen of Kansas. TMo other citizen Is David Wi Hart of Dodge City. Ho Is not a great man , but the Insurance companion think ho has shown n turn ct mind at speculation which would en- tltlo him to membership In the Chicago Heard of Trade. Few men nro gifted with the foresight of a seer or the prudence of a. Franklin , but Mr. Hart of Dodge City , Kan. , seems to have both. Kor many years , relates the New York Sun , Hart was on the Atchlson , Topclo. & Santa Fe between Dodge- City and La Junta , Cal. Ho was by turns a switchman , freight brakeman , passenger and freight conductor , and , for all any one knows , an engineer and Ilroman. However , he passed twenty yrars on rolling stock. Ho was not a clumsy man. Ho was a small , wiry , active fellow , to whom year after year of railroad woik had given a certain agility and dexterity about cars. So adept , Indeed , had ho become that In all these years ho had never met with an accident not one. Ho hopped off cars , ho hepped on cars. Ho switched , ho climbed over sl'ppcry decks of cars. Ho coupled up trains , ho perched on brakes , ho swung from car to car , ho caught Hying trains , ho missed approaching engines , and , In fact , stared death In the face In a thousand ways. Still ho escaped unscathed. Thus Hart struggled along through life until he passed the forty-flCdi mile post. He was the father of half a dozen children. He was a frugal and thrifty man nnd caved cnougli money to buy a house In Dcdge City. He also contrived to buy another one at La Junta. It Is not always best for a western railroad man to own too much piop- erty In one town. He also saved mcney for a bank account. INSURANCE A GOOD THING. Hart belle\ed In Insurance , especially In accident Insurniice. Unlike Hlllmon , he did not care to dlo to beat an Insurance com pany , and for the protection of his family he liked to keep well insured In railroad benevo lent nbosclatlons against accidents to life and limb. As Hart worked on the Atchlson. To pcka & Santa Fo road he was Insured , with other employes , In the Travelers' association for employes of that company , so as to re- cclvo $6GG for the lose of a leg. He did not stop with that safeguard , but threw out a few moro anchora , or , In railroad parlance safety signals , In the way of accident poli cies. He was Insured In the engineers' Asso ciation , In the Railway Olllclals' and Em ployer ' association , the Employes' Accident association , the Railroad Conductors' Life Insurance company of the United States and | Canada , the Switchmen's Union IJcncvolent association , the Railroad Trainmen's asso ciation and the Railroad Passenger and Freight Conductors' association. Ho n'so be longed to the Masonic and United Workmen lodges , In which he had $4,000 In policies This list would strike meet persons as bclnff a ffllr nrnvlslnn jiirntnnt nil pnntlni'pnptpK. but Hart knew better the value of his own Units than uny one else. Not that ho feared for a moment that he might In Ma old age grow carelece and fall beneath the wheels of his own train. Oh , no , there was merely the dark presentiment ever In his mind , so ho paid his assessments. In the autumn of 1S93 came a pleasant break In the monotonous life of this rallroicl man. lie was selected by an admiring con stituency to go as a delegate to a railroad men's convention at Boston. The trip pleased Hart , for not only could he represent the railroad men In an Important convention , but could have a chance to see the World's fair. I3elng a frugal man and not addicted to drinker or bad habits , ho saved up a neat sum and after paying his Insurance assessments wa able to start for Boston with a few hundred dol'urs In his pocket. LOOKING OUT FOR HIS LEGS. Hart no sooner left home than that dark presentiment would como up before him. He hod taken a sleeping car out of Kinsas City , and as ho wes whirling along toward the White City , ho thought how recklessly he was exposing himself to the perlla of travel In the hands of a crew ho know nothing about. Every railroad horror ho had read offer for jears came before his vision again as he lay there In his berth. The tales of careless railroading In fair times would pop up In his mind , despite all ho could do , and fancy conjured up grim pictures of horror. It was In vain that ho argued with himself that ho w : s Insured In cat.o of accident. Nothing could pay for the loss of any of his valuable members.

Ho took out poli cies In the follow IHK companies : Paoino Mutual Ufo 2,000. Fidelity ami Oisualty J50 per week for twontylx , wceks. Travelers' lnaurane { 30 per \scck for twenty-six weeks.

Manufacturers' Accident Insurance Com- l ny of Canada $2,000 for loss of leg. employers' Liability Association Corpora tion ( Limited ) $10,000 for loss of leg. HOW IT FOOTS UP. A singular circumstance Is that In the pre vious year Hart , whllo on a similar trip to Boston , had Insured lit Ihrso sanio compinles anJ In the same manner , but that year he was wonderfully preserved nnd had uo caubo to make a demand on Uio corporations. The policies above enumerated were taken out on the thirty-day limit plan , nnd In case Hart should bo killed his heirs would get some thing over $100,000. In addition to this lib eral protection to his llfo , the dozen or so companies ho was Insured In at home would pay. In case of death , about $50.000. Utit Hart eccinol most concerned about his legs , although there was no reason to sup pose there was anything extraordinary about these members. He had sutii a fancy for their Insurance that between the sum Insured at Chicago and at Dodge City either ono of these legs was worth If not to Hart , to the companies about ? 50,000. In two of these companies which Issued him n policy before ho started for the cast , one of his loga was valued t $4,000. lit the aggregate both of his legs were world abcut $100,000. Thus for the small oulliy of about $83 Hart could feel that any ordinary accident to cither of hla letjs would be amply paid for. There 'o no reconl of Mr. Hart's conduct In Iloston , whither he went oftcr buying all the Insurance he could get In Chicago , beyond the fact that before rcturn'ng to the went he went on a pleasure trip to Toronto , where IIP once more Insured his valuable legs , tak ing a $2,000 policy In the Manufacturers' Ac cident Insurance company , and one for $30 per week for twenty-six weeks In the Accl" dent Insurance company of Montreal. FeelIng - Ing still more secure than when he stsrtcd , he Journeyed homeward by way of Ch'cago. His dw'ro to e.'e the World's Fair loJ him to stop off there , and In the wonders of the White City for ft brief moment he forgot about his legs and the dark presentiment though doubtless If Insurance policies had been for tale there ho would ha\e been true to hlru e.lf md hit family nnd hnvc purchiuort all there wetx > . WHY OUIKVn AT FATE ? The mon memorable day of Hart's bilef p rlod of forgptfulncn * was October ! 8 , and the hour was 0 p m This wai the d y when fate anil David Hat nny bo said to have met for mortal t : bat The sound of their encounter i cm hod no mortal ear. The theater of their acl'on was the commonplace Chicago street cat Thus did destiny show hr contempt for the tragic. Where rn elec trio line shot around n d rk loop near the World's Fnlr grounds Hart succumbed to fate , the combat wa * ended , and presentiment and mystery won the victory. No man know * what subtle agency decreed h'.s ' fall , but Mil he did. He said he was pushed from the car by crowding passengers. There ho lay. The deadly wheels had pissed ovct one of those precious and much Insured Itgs Hart was con\oyod to a hospital , where the doctors rontulted nnd cut off his left foot The right foot also was Injured , but amputa tion was not necessary. A wcond and third amputation were necessary , as the first was unsuccessful. While on rt bed of pain Hurt was visited by an agent of cno of the Insurance com panics , who tried to nnkci terms with him but without success. Mr , Hart sent for a lawyer and placed In his hands all his wealth of Insurance policies , and Instructed h'.m to proceed to collect the cash. The attorney- was Instructed also to sue the street rttlroid company for heavy damages. Then It was that the Insurance compcnlea concernoJ zcgan to consider ways and means of placat Ing Hart. They wanted the street cir com rflny to Join with them In fighting the ciso but the company decided to settle with Hart and allow the Insurance companies to settle their own battles. The companies cont'estcd the claims , but soon some of the benefit organizations decided to pay Hart , thus breaking the comiAict , nnd leaving each company - pany to settle or fight , as It deslrod , Hart Is still waiting for the payment of many of his policies , the companies mtlntalnlng that Hart planned to defraud them. This Is a story of a thrifty westerner who has double-discounted John W. Hlllmon , who had to dlo to beat his policies. Hart placed a higher value on his legs tint Hlllnion dli' , on his life , and In the rural Kansas vernacu lar he could give Hlllmon cards and spades ; and then beat him.

I used three bottles of Wine of Cardui for profuse menstruation nnd flooding three years ago. I found relief from it and have a fine boy 20 months old. I have been suf fering fiom the snmc trouble again for sev m eral months so have commenced using Wine > r > * of Cardui. Have been using it nearly two weeks and am about well again. My daughter-in-law has suffered from suppression always , she tells me , and got so bad it caused convulsions. I advised her to use Wine of Cardui three months ago. She is now on her second bottle and is bet ter than she has been since she came to the age of puberty. We want nil our friends to know about Wine of Cardui nncl get relief. Mrs. MARY E. HOLDEN. Mrs. Holden's letter shows what Wine of Cardui has done. It will do just as much for other afflicted women. Where Wine of Cardui can be obtained there is no necessity for women to suffer from flooding- , whites , falling of the womb , suppression , painful or irreg ular menstruation. This pure Wine will relieve such troubles. It will make weak , languid , nervous women strong , healthy , happy women. It is better than any other med icine to do that.
