A fair young thins, with tender blue eyes, entered Woodworth's otlice and calmly seated herself. A glance at lier portfolio impelled him to seek refuge in the cool brick vault of his neighbor across the passage, Barker, who called himself a banker, but the lady barred the way. "No," he said, desperately, without waiting to be interrogated, "I don't want to subscribe for a 'History of the War,' nor 'Lives of the Candidates,' nor 'Picturesque Anything.'" •'But, honored sir," replied the mild, simple and rather simpering young person, "I do not ask you to subscribe for anything, unless, indeed, you would honor 1110 by taking a ticket—" "Ticket nothing!" again interrupted Woodworth. "I've 110 leisure for amusements. My time is all taken up with my profession—and science." "Ah, that is what drew me hither!" beamed the beautiful girl. "I perceived by your sign that you were a lawyer, and I have heard that you are a mem ber —a prominent one —of the Psychi cal Research society. In one or both capacities I think you can do me an inestimable service." Woodworth, touched at two vulner able points, unbent. "You see, kind sir," sho continued, "that I am a materialized spirit. My manager, Mr. Shockton, who is stop ping at the hotel—here is his card — called me forth from the spirit world by mistake for Martha Washington, with whom I was contemporaneous." Woodworth had noticed the antique style and courtly bearing of his love ly visitor. "He delayed so long in endeavoring to correct his error," she went on, "that, instead of remaining in the misty, _2, When I Died. indistinct form in which spirits are preferably presented, I became as thoroughly substantial as when I was before on earth, 130 years ago." "Upon my word, young lady—or, venerable dame —" the lawyer cor rected with halting courtesy, "this is a very extraordinary statement. Do you know that you render yourself liable to prosecution for obtaining money under false pretenses when you at tempt t® sell tickets on such a tale as that?" She smiled trustingly. "No, sir, I did not know that, indeed, lam only beginning to learn the strange tiling of your wonderful century—but 1 like them very much. Though my famili arity with the distaff and spindle, the needle and quill pen will no longer afford me a livelihood, 1 have an ar dent longing to learn the sewing ma chine or the typewriter—and become a New Woman. lam most anxious to resume the life permaturely cut short in 1770, in my eighteenth year, when I died from what was erroneously di agnosed as a quinsy. I have reason to believe that, had I been treated for diphtheria with an anti toxin serum, 1 would have lived to a good old age." "What is there to prevent you frojn doing so now?" asked Woodworth, touched and interested immeasurably by his singular client. "Because my master—for so I call him—Mr. Shockton, who brought me from the other world, is determined to send me back. I fear that, from mercenary motives, he means to de materialize mo at his very next seance." Woodworth hurriedly thought of all known legal processes, but neither habeas corpus, ne exeat, nor any other writ with which ho was famaiar seemed a remedy against the peculiar form of extradition proposed by Shock ton. Putting on his hat, he? exclaimed: "You sit right there while 1 inter view this tyrant, Miss , bog your pardon?" "Amy Alright was my name before," she answered, sweetly. Finding the spiritual manager in his improvised office at the hotel, the law yer addressed him by name, saying: "1 warn you to desist from your perse- CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, MARCH 25, 1909. cutloti of my client, Miss Amy Alright. She is perfectly satisfied with 'this mundane sphere,' as the reporters call it, and intends to remain here. I shall take steps to enjoin you from making her the subject of further ex periment." "Take a ticket," was Shockton's cordfcii response, thrusting out a card. "One dollar, please; 7:30 this evening. Wo are going to demater aiize the chit this very night, and if it doesn't come off, call rae all the liars you like. Next!" "One moment, Mr. Shockton," said Woodworth, severely. "I understand you to say that you Intend to dema teriaiize, which I suppose means to disembody— to cause to disappear—" "Into thin air—evaporate—vamose!" answered the medium, in a business like tone. "Cause to disappear a person now living? That,, my dear sir, is murder!" "Wrong!" replied Shockton. "Who is this girl? where does she hail from? She has been dead IliO years. Can't kill a person twice, you know. What good is she, anyhow? She's way .be hind the times—can't even sell a ticket to her own dematerialization." "Then you are determined to dema teriaiize the lady again?" demanded Woodworth, somewhat demoralized. "Sure; come and see for yourself "Bake a ticket, and one for your wife." "I shall certainly come—with the police. You insist on making this pre posterous experiment?" "Fact. But tell you what I'll do. You may take the young woman—lock her up—do anything you like with her, and I'll bet you a cool hundred I'll de materialize her all the same." Woodworth clutched at this propo sition —he began to see a way out. The j Psychical Research society was hasti ly summoned in special session, and Amy Alright was introduced to Presi dent Barker and the members. Her frankness and timidity convinced the most skeptical among them that she, at least, was innocent of collusion with the medium. She appeared terribly to dread the threats of Shockton. "Oh, gentlemen," she pleaded, "put me under ground; put me in some strong place, where it will be impos sible to get at me. I am so tired of be ing a spirit. Don'i let me. be demateri alized again!" Provided with a lunch from the hotel, wrapped in napkins, she was smuggled into Barker's bank —it was dignified by that name in the village —and locked into its roomy old brick vault, and a committee signed an affi davit to that effect. Then all the Psychical people at tended Shockton's seance. It was very long and very mysterious. For two hours the audience—they could not be called spectators—sat in dark ness, listening to soft music and wait ing for Amy Alright to appear. At last there came a gentle tapping. "Ah, ha!" exclaimed Shockton, "she comes! Who goes there?" "The spirit of Mistress Amy Alright, who died of the quinsy in 1770." "Are you in the ilesh, or in the spirit?" "A spirit, alas! Oh, woe Is me!" "There you are, gentlemen!" said Shockton, switching on the light. "Now produce your Amy, if you can." The audience, led by the Psychical Research committee, trooped back to Barker's bank. Heavens! The ipan had won his bet—Amy had demateri alized after all. • So had the contents of the bank! The only material evidences remain ing ot the guileless girl and her work were the crumbs of her luncheon, the napkins in which it had been wrapped, and a hotel table knife—snapped short off —which had served as a screw* driver. The big, old-style locks, with their screws, lay on the floor. "O Blavatsky !'•' groaned Barker, "what idiots we have been!" Electricity on Shipboard. At a recent shiphuildiny exposition held in Germany the greater pa it of the exhibits related to tho use of-elec tricity on shipboard, and a large num ber of new and interesting devices were shown for the llrst time. One of the features of the electrical building was a chandelier which is thought to bo the greatest thing of the kind ever constructed. It comprised a larje octagonal arrangement of angle iron, with some decorative material inter woven, and from it were suspended 16 flaming nrc lamps. The light from this great cluster was almost blinding. The Building of a Battleship. The greatest single piece of work which can be given to a navy yard 13 the building of a battleship. It has been learned from hard experience* that these ships cost from 25 to 60 per cent, more when built by the gov ernment than they do when built by contract in private jards. That is, there is a loss to tho government of from $500,000 to $1,500,000 on every one it builds. —McClure's. Not So New. "A chap came along yesterday tak ing orders for metal mothers." "What ou earth are 'metal moth ers?'" "Incubators." WHAT WIFE SAYS "GOES." But It Sometimes Is Bad for the Painting. When a property-owner knows noth ing about paint it is bad for the property-owner, and bad for the paint er. It would not be so if the property owner would always hire a skilled painter, and then really leave every thing to liim. liut the hou;-:e-owner so often fools himself ou one or the other of these things. The skilled painter in every commu nity has some of the most incompetent competitors that ever vexed a consci entious workman or contractor, and tho incompetents get jobs generally by working cheap. In the next place, when the skilled painter is hired, they do not leave everything to him, as so many property-owners boast they do. They interfere most ignorantlv and most fatally. They insist sometimes on using paint materials without in vestigating whether they are good or not. Or perhaps they insist on the painter's hurrying the work. "I'm not going to have that painter's mess around my house a month," the wife says, and what wife says goes— at the coat of a lot of wf-sted painting money. If the painter stays away a few days to allow the paint ?o thoroughly dry the owner says: "That painter's nrgloeting this work—guess he's side tracking mo for Jones' work. I won't stand It." What chance does a painterhavetodo good work for a man who is continually nagging at him and otherwise handi capping him (without meaning it, of course) ? A poor job is the inevitable result of such interference. Poor painting costs the liouseowner money—don't forget that.

She had so many children that at first she didn't know what to do. A friend of the family who hap pened to come along just then, how ever, made the following suggestions: To put one of them in a factory. To have a couple more operated on and otherwise fussed over by the doc tors. To put a couple of them in a coal mine. To send one to a modem public school. To bring up another on a pure food diet. Which no sooner having been car ried into effect than the old woman settled down to a life of easr and lone someness.—New York Herald. Unfortunate Expression.

Many persons goon drinking coffee year after year without realizing that it is the cause of many obscure but persistent ailments. The drug—caffeine—in coffee and tea, is very like uric acid and is often the cause of rheumatic attacks which, when coffee is used habitually, become chronic. A Washington lady said, recently: "I am sixty-five and have had a good deal of experience with coffee. I con sider it very injurious and tho cause of many diseases. lam sure it causes decay of teeth in children. "When I drank coffee I had sick spells and still did not realize that coffee could be so harmful, till about a year ago I had rheumatism in my arms and fingers, got so nervous I could not sleep, and was all run down.

WHAT k FORMER OREGON FARMER THINKS OF WEST ERN CANADA. Albert Nelson left Benton Co., Ore gon, in Sept., 1904, for the groat Canadian prairies. To quote from his | letter: "I was greatly surprised to 1 find such an immense stretch of rich 1 virgin prairie still almost unoccupied | in the very heart of North America. | The splendid crops of oats, wheat, bar- i ley, potatoes and hay I beheld In the j settlements made me very eager for a piece of this rich soil, and I soon lo- ! catcd in the Goose Lake country. We havo hero a great stretch of the rich, deep clay loam of tho Saskatchewan — a soil heavy and hard to break, but particularly well adapted for there tention of moisture and production of i the bright No. 1 hard wheat, and great crops of oats, barley, flax and po- | tato.es. I had 60 bushels of oats, weighing 441 lb. to the bushel, per acre. Some of my neighbors had still j greater yields. Wheat yielded from 20 j to 30 bushels per acre. We have all j done well here, and I could name many Americans who came here with I means togo ahead, who have done big already. For homesteads one has togo further west, but the best prai rie can be bought here for from $12.00 to 51G.00 per acre. The climate is ; dry and healthy. This is the regular 1 Saskatchewan fall weather frosty nights, and bright, sunny days—ideal j for threshing and hauling out of wheat. The trails are dusty, as thou sands of wheat teams are moving towards the elevators. "The sight of it makes one stop and wonder what it will be In a few years when the immense prairies get under cultivation. Heavy snowfall is the exception here. Snow generally falls in December and goes off in March. It sometimes gets very cold, but the Saskatchewan farmer does not fear the cold. Winter 13 his season of rest. The first or second crop he builds a comfortable house for him self, and warm stables for his horses. He need not, like some, be poking ebout in tho mud all winter attending a few beasts for a livelihood." ATTENUATED. He—See, Samantlia, that shows how terribly thin some folks are.
