No, ho hasn't been thrown out a second story window and killed, neither Is his work completed. Ho simply has resigned for cause. Like the annals of the poor, his history as an enumerator Is short and simple. He started in gaily and without a foiebodlntr. In the first place his wife was willing. Hitherto she had set her face strenuously apainst politics. Now, whether or not the census Industry can bo classed as politics Is open to debate. She con sidered It In that light nnd strangely enough was exceedingly anxious that her husband should secure the position of enumerator. Hence he was happier even at the close of tho first day than were many of his colleagues, but It was his last happy day. That night his Intellect began to catch glimmering views of his wife's motive of sudden interest in the census. As soon as he had finished ills dinner, which in that house was supper, she drew her chair close to his on the porch, produced a note book and remaiked, "Well?" In an inquiring tone of voice. He looked at her wonderlngly and she seemed visibly annoyed at his stupidity. "Well!" she repeated, "why don't you begin?" "Why don't I begin what?" ho feebly asked in return. "Why!" she retorted Impatiently, "of course you know that I want to hoar all about It." "All about what?" ho said with ap prehension in his tones. "Oh for goodness sake, John!" she exclaimed, the exasperation apparent in her face, "don't act more like a dod dering idiot than you can help. You really don't havo to repeat every word after me, and you know very well that I expected you to cono homo and tell me all the things you've found out to day." The census enumerator for the sec ond district of the th ward gazed helplessly at his helpmate. This, then, was why she had been so interested in securing tho office. This was why she had placed no obstructions In his way and hadn't lamented the waste of shoe-leather. She wanted to know. Just here his thinking apparatus went on a sort of strike as a sudden, lurid picture of the possibilities of the case Hashed before his gaze. She desired to know all the information he had secured that day and she proposed to find out. Should ho grasp that oblong book to which he had been clinging nnd fleet to some safe deposit vault? Should he sutieptitlously shy It over into the cool shadows of his neighbor's back yard? Ho dared not reveal Its seciets, and yet here was the wife of his bosom linportunntely demnndlng to know tho ago of Mrs. X, next door. He tried to explain that such mat ters were sworn secrets. He wouldn't be allowed to repeat tho tiniest bit of information he had gathered. In fact, tho answers wero simply down In numbers, there were no names, he really couldn't tell who was who. But nono of these excuses satisfied his "cA Perfect Food" " "Preserves Health' cProlongsLife" 'S I BREAKFAST i COCOA "Known the wotld over, . . .

Russell, notary public, also recording secretary of the Econo mic Savings and Progressive Society, Kansas City, Mo., in a letter of re cent date, writes tho following to Dr. Hartman: "For tho past four yeius I have suffered with catarrh, of the stom ach, causing loss of sleep and appetite, with frequent severe pains after eating. "I tried doctors and medicines until I lost faith and hope of ever getting well again. One of iny associates advised me to try Pe runa. It proved of genuine merit. My appetite returned speedily, I gained strength and flesh, and although I havo used only five bot tles of Peruna I am In perfect health today." Loss or Appetite. Mrs. T. W. Collins, ticasurer of tho Independent Older of Good Templars, of Everett, Wash,, has used tho great catarrhal tonic, Peruna, for nn aggra vated case of dyspepsia. Mrs. Collins glvei her experience with Peruna In the following words: The Peruna Medicine CoColumbus, O.: Gentlemen "After having a. severe attack of la grippe I continued In a feeble condition, even after the doctor railed me cured. My blood seemed poisoned. I also suffered with dys pepsia and had either to starve or suffer from what I was eating.

She proposed to know the ago of .Mrs. X, and having been married for several years he gracefully suc cumbed to the Inevitable and nt ran dom said "Thlity-one." "O-o-oh!" was the remark which greeted his re luctant statement. "Well of all things In ths world! and she's forty-five If she Is a day!" and down went a note In tho red-covered memorandum. "Now, did Srrs. Y tell you she had been divorced?" was the nett qt ry. The census man seemed to be th " lng very hard, He couldn't really i member, was his final venture In an swer to this question. I5ut that wasn't satisfactory, and finally he Intimated that she didn't confide ruch a family secret as that. Down went another note and an omlnlcus expiesslon ac companied the writing thereof. "Did Mrs. A. say whether she wa3 married or single?" demanded his in terlocutor, and a realistic Idea of what must have been tho Inner sentiments of certain of his victims that day, sud denly appeared to the unhappy census man. He thought she said she had been married, he ffi) illy replied, and his wife wrote some more nnd made the foot-note aloud that she wondeicd some women would dare to turn out tho light at night. Thus the Inquisition went on with queries as to whether a certain neigh bor's houso was paid for, and next mornlnc this particular census man resigned his position, giving as a rea son for tho step that he thought so much talking was bad for his lungs. Tho day following his wife had a small thlmblo tea, and the general local knowledge that will now be found dif fused In that neighborhood would be worth a page of statistics in the re port. Wl nt is puzzling the ex-enumerator at tho present time Is whether It wns a wise thing in systematically falsify ing the returns as he did In that mem ornblo catechising process. Wouldn't It have been better to have the truth disseminated as It was confided to him? Yesterdny he heard that Mrs. X. must be a very different sort of person from what she was supposed to bo, to thus prevaricate about her age, and other facts about people In the viclnltv weio more or less distort ed, according to tho half-desperate re plies ho had made. Ho had been afraid to betray the trust lepo&cd In him, but It Is now a question as to whether he hadn't made matters worse by con cealing tho truth. Ho is firm In the belief that no married man should take census statistics, and he Is now plan nine to leave tho city for the sum mer. I havo for a long tifne held to the opinion that milk wagons nnd ico wagors should be equipped with rub ber tires. Thero should be n regula tion demanding this n the caso of tho former, at least, although regulations except as evolved by tho Men's union, don't seem to regulate tn this city. There are those newsboys, they begin their shrill bulletins of Sunday "pi pers" nt C o'clock In the morning nnd pursue you to tho very vestibule of tho sanctunry with their Importuni ties, Tho mayor told them to keep still, but acting on the principle of tho small boy, win declared that ho didn't say his prayers the night bo fore last, nor last night, una j(o wnsn't going to tay them trrdght, nnd then If nothing happened to him ho wnsn'.t ever going t say them any more, they'vo discovered that nothing has happened to them and thoy proposo to continue disturbing people on tho Lord's Day very c&rly in tho morning. 1 -there is a wlde-suread nntlon IMUl impoVellSllnd llloml rati Iu supplied with the ingredients that it lacks by medicine.

"The most pathetic scene I ever wit nessed In my life," said he, "was the outcomo of a very singular nnd curi ous condition of affairs.

A Scotchman, named Duncan, went among them, and nt tho risk of his own life civilized them. Ho taught them every dogma of our religion except tho Lord's Sup per. Ills great work had been to win them from cannibalism, to teach them that capturing and then roasting and devouring human beings wns barb'H ous.

"This was not satisfactory," con tinued Senator Vest, ns ho told the story, "to the governor of tho provlnco of Vancouver or the bishop of tho Eng lish church, both of whom demanded that ho should either administer tho sacrnment or else glvo up his lay min istry In the church. Duncan explained tho reasons which had actuated him, but they were not accepted ns suffic ient.
