But Mr. Witham's aspiration, pro
claimed lieyotiil nil misinteriiretatioii,
was de.-tined ti lie considered by an
individual manifestly uusuited to its
requirements. In a cozy parlor with
in t!ie aristiK-ratie limits of Sail Fran
cisco it had caught the eye of one Fred
crick Wcldon, and to that frentleman's
handsome feature it brought a smile
of amusi'iiient. Possibly he was con
trasting the advertiser's iiosition with
his own he was la-injr entertained by
a you n trirl of admirable wifely adaji
taiious. And yet such was not the ex
act trend of his thoughts. Miss IXiro
thy Halstcd was a very pretty girl and
withal charming. Moreover she was,
at that moment, seated lioside him on
a low sofa, and her dainty head seem
ed as if created by nature to rest coti
lidinjriy on some strong, male shoul
der. But San Francisco was graced
wuii many oi Jier kind, lhev were
all attractive; he loved the sex.
But in Mr. Witham's announcement
which he had carelessly lifted from a
table at his elbow, Fred discerned an
opportunity for i sissi I de diversion, and
he extended it to his companion.
L'tV aiiiilv," was his susrircstioii.
Miss Halstcd smiled.
'I am only !!,'' she returned. "I
can wait a year or two longer before re
fsortinjr to any such desperate means."
Fnst was on his knees (metaphoric
ally at once.
"Dolly! Miss Dolly!" he ejaculated
reproachfully.
But this a-v-umption of tender depre
cation elicited only a light, rippling
laugh. It is to lie feared that the
young girl deemed all such courteous
platitudes her just tribute.
Xor need it In' stated with what
equally siiecious phrases she diverted
the conversation liack into the other
channels, suffice to say that she exhilt
itcd the skill of an adept.
Meantime, however, Fred retained
the liewsjiaiK-r, and after a brief inter
val, he again asked:
"Why not answer it? I'll write the
letter and you copy it. Then we'll in
close the photo of an actress if you
can find one consistent with his idea
and await results.
Again Miss Halstcd laligl.cd, but it
was only a musical murmur, manifest
ing little appreciation; she even ajt
Hiired somewhat bored by his persist
ency. Nevertheless she rose and pro
cured the materials requisite forcorres
p mdenee.
"But what name shall I sign?" she
asked, when at last it had la-en cop
ied. "You might use a conijNisite," was
the reply. Yes, that's it; make it lr
othy Wcldon."
Tiie young girl colored and lowered
her eyes. But she accepted the sug
gestion, and over such pseudonym was
the letter sent.
As an epistolarlary precursor of future
hymeneal joys it was a masterpiece
or so, at least, Fred averred. It was to
lv prcsuni-d that the unknown Mr.
William was a cattle baron L e., a
cowUiy on whom fortune had smiled
therefore, all stilted elegance of phras
eology was avoided. Moreover, the
gentleman appeared to desire a wife
considerably his junior and for that
reason a certain, maidenly coyness and
naivete was necessary. But Fred was
equal to the tak. "Miss" Weldon was
ashamed, almost afraid to address Mr.
Witliam. She viu alone, however,
with no one to advise; was what peo
pie vulgarly termed a shop girl. She
had also been told that gentlemen in
his walk of life retained much of that
chivalrie element of disjmskion long
since extinct in large cities. Where
fore she trusted and Itclieved that he
would accord her communication that
confidence lietittiug her sincerity.
I-red contemplated his hist bit of
flattery with a smile of complacency.
"He'll not swear at his cattle for a
week after that," he observed. Then
he e-tnsigned the letter to his inside
jiockct.
ljuemadura Flat was isolated from
railroads, and ten days elapsed before
an answer was received. A brief note
from Miss Halstcd addressed, by the
way, to Miss IXirothy Wcldon ac
quainted Fred of its arrival, and with
in the snug precincU of her dwelling
he found that young lady considerably
amused. Mr. Witham's reply was cer
tainly in keeping with the advertise
ment by which it liad Ufffrprcvcdcd.
"My Dear Miss Weldon" it began.
"Thanks for your letter. Thanks, too,
for your picture. I also thank (Jod
that I have lieen permitted to receive
them. IYrhajis that annuls like a
sianiKde of fervency, lint I'm more ac
customed to stanqiedes than to writing
letters. Therefore when I tell you that
I like your iints you can l-ack my
words."
And thus launched upon the sea of
eorresivHideiuie involved in four jtajr-
of very unfashionable paper he
ontinued. He reiterated all he had
Irevioiisly published, and added con
siderable in unitnjiortaiit detail, o;
which reference to certain lwnk'.Ts in
Lx Angelw comprised no small irt.
or was Fred's allusion to cowlioy
chivalry without its effect, for in con
clusion he went on:
As to your own right to your brand,
no further remarks are necessary. I
have seen your face (on paper) and I
have heard you talk I know the yelp
of a sneaking coyote, and I never yet
failed to recognize the jeweled hide of
a rattlesnake. That's all.
With this, however, Miss Halstead
apiH-ared less agreeably diverted.
There's a rough, Quixotic credence
a'oout it that approaches iwthos," was
her musing comment.
Fred laughed.
"He. does put it rather neatly he
vouchsafed, but he's only a cowboy,
I hilly; and, la-sides this is only his
first; who knows what a mine of lov
ing tenderness we may yet develop'.'"
The young girl shook her head.
"You, iierhaps; not me," she returned-
"I shall write no more."
"But, Dolly, think of the "
"I know the fun," Miss Halstcd in
teqiosed. "But it's not fun to him,
and I refuse to continue."
Nevertheless another letter was writ
ten, and in Dolly's delicate chirogra
phy. Nor did Fred's sulisequciit ex
pression of satisfaction arise wholly
from the epistle itself, rather from the
young girls suliscrvience to his wishes.
As In-fore a lajtse of ten days brought
the reply. St, also, did each such suc
ceeding interval for several months
then-after. And they certainly yield
ed no small fund of entertainment.
The writer albeit he invariably an
swered by return mail, was by no
means of a lovelorn distajsition; he
strayed into anecdote, thenoe to humor
and with results, in a crude way, infi
nitely amusing, Fred, tto, it has since
been asserted, soon viewed the corres-
IMindence from another standpoint; in
deed, it did in-rmit him to visit Dolly
with a frequency prohibited by conven
tionality. But it must lie confessed that Mr.
Witliam sjieedily liegan to chafe under
the restraint of confining words to a
mailltair. Each letter contained its
appeal that he Ik? iiermitted to visit the
city. Nor were his plaints without a
certain element of the inithetic. His
ranch was 00 miles from civilization
and refinement; that K) miles he now
traversed to receive only a letter.
"And he's scarcely to lie blamed,
Dollv." Fred mice oliscrved. "Think
of what his longing" would lie hail he
seen vour own features, instead of
Mile. Clio's!" Then he contemplated
the girl's fair face with a smile, and,
turning awav hummed a lr of sonic-
thiiisr about a letter that never
came.
Meantime, however, there arrived
day when the newspaiK-rs again had
occasion to publish Jake Witham's
name. It was only a brief notice, tcle-
grapluc, and recounting the destruc
tion by fire of Qucmadura Hat the set
tleiuciit wherein that gentleman re
ceived his mail. He had been present
at the time presumably awaiting the
aecustom-d letter and had generously
donated ?0i0 to those rendered home
less.
As the item met Fred's eye a change
came ever his face and, clipping it from
the lli-r, he conveyed it to Miss Hal
st-d.
"I'm rather sorry, after all, Dolly,
that we selected such a man for a fool,"
he said with a seriousness, o him, un
usual. "He certainly appears to have
a heart and a big tine."
Dolly smiled, alU-it somewhat satiri
cally.
"It's the dollar, not the sentiment
with you, Fred," she astutely return
ed.
Frcil made no reply. Possibly Ids re-
siiect for gold was a characteristic ad
mitting no denial.
But the young girl was again in-ras
ing the rep trt, and in the last line she
encountered fo::r words previously un
noticed: "Mr. itham s liailly injur
ed."
Her face was slightly paler as she
looked up.
"He's given more than his dollars,
Fred," she said in a low tone.

time there was depicted in his expres

"Well, that lets me out," he return
ot. "To tell the truth, D.dlv, I was
In-ginning to wonder how we could ex
tricate ourselves gracefully." .
But Fred erred, and that gravely, in
In-licving he was to escaiK; thus easily
from the corresiiondeiuv which he had
liegun. Three days later he was again
summoneil into .Miss lialstcu s pres
ence, and that voting ladv met him
with a l.xtk of blank dismav. She had
received another letter from Mr. Wit
ham and of a character vastly dissimi
lar to those of earlier date. Moreover,
a small package acconilianicd the let
ter. Within rejmscd a ring whose
glistening stone was worthy to gra
even Dolly's tapering fingers, and he
was following the ring.
'Here!" the young girl ejaculated,
almost tearfully. "He's coming
here!"
Fred knit his brow; manifestly he
was disconcerted, and he took the let
ter ironi her nana, isut there was no
loophole for misconstruction. Tiie
writer was tut loiig-r an appealing
swain, suing for favor; he had me
with an accident had narrowly escaj
ed death, and by it was warned that
delay frequently entailed disaster. At
the closing statement, however, Fred
exhibited some slight relief. Mr. Wit-
ham did not intend roping a wife as he
would a steer unannounced. He
would await Miss Weldon' pleasure at
the Palace Hotel.
"And we'll have to meet him there,
Fred declared in a tone of despera
tion.
"We!" the young jarl exclaimed,
"I'm not Miss Weldon."
"Well, I will, then," Fred returned.
"But what M il! I tell him that vou're
sick, dead, or have left the city?"
Miss Halsted shook her head.
"That would only mean procrastina
tion, with an explanation still to be
made," she said, dubiously.
"No; tf you are, going to meet him
if you dare to meet him tell him the
trutlu"
Fred winced. It had not previously
occurred to hhu that an encounter
with Mr. Witliam might entail bodily
discomfort.
"Do do you suppose he'll fight?" he
queried, half absently.
I hope so; you deserve it," wx the
young girl's reply. Then she paused
and her eyes sparkled mischicvously
as she noted hereoiuiianioirsdejection.
"No; I don't mean that, Fred," she
added; "I would not like you to get
hurt. But you must see him,"
"And I will, Dolly," was Fred's
earnest rejoinder, his love for her sex
fast tending toward centralization.
"For you I'd interview that gentleman
who buys his hoes at the farrier's."
But words are not actions. The fol
lowing day was nearly at an end when
Fred entered the Palace Hotel and
glanced over the register. Inwardly
he was praying that the name of Wit
ham should not apitear upon its itages;
that its owner might lie roposing !,e-
neath a wrecked train, shot by express
robbers, intoxicated by the wayside

sight of it he repaired to the barroom.
That courage, however, which is at

st its potency, and he soon returned
to the utlice. His hand trembled as he
drew a card from his pocket; but it had

clerk.

Five minutes later a shaking tub
wheezed, and he watched the clock.

The liell boy, too, seemed as if bent
upon hastening the calamitous work,
for he at once conducted him to the
d.tor of Mr. Witham's room and tapped
loudly on the lumncl.
"Comer' was the cheery response
that floated through the transom, and
Fred shuddered. Then he pulled him
self together and turned the knob.
But on the threshold he paused. Mr.
Witliam the "cowlmy" was seated
within, and of exterior he was not all
formidable. His features, allieit U-ard-
ed, were Uiyish, pleasant and rather
handsome, and his attire was that af
fected by a man of the world. But it
was not with him that Fred was now
concerned Dorothy Halsted was
seated on his knee.
Fred was like a nutn dazed by some
sudden revelation; he seemed, almost,
to stagger. But the cowboy smiled.
Then lifting Dolly he deimsitcd her
in his own seat and advanced with ex
tended hand.
"My wife, Mr. Wcldon," he observ
ed lightly. "We have had her father's
blessing; I trust we have yours."
Fred stared; he was yet like one in
the dark, and he scarcely noticed the
bund which clasped his own.
But he was siieedily enlightened, and
by Miss Halsted or, rather, the former
Miss Halsted herself.
"Yes, Fred," she said with a wealth

Useful Plants.
Though Emerson suggested that
every weed is a plant whose use is uot
yet understood, the number of plants
that have Int-n brought into service by
man is very small. Edson S. Ba.-t in

11!2 siiccies of plants have lieen at some
time cultivated for food, anil that the
whole numln-r of species known to have
lieen used as fiod, including those re
sorted to in famine, is W. But many
of these are of little value, and Smith's

as many more are yet to lie discovered,
while many sjteciesare capable of great

Should Enjoy Life.
Every fanner should first arrange for
the comfort and happiness of his family
before he makes any etlorts toward
getting rich. He should make it pos
sible to have a finer table lhan imy

cooks. Home say they have not time
to bother with a garden, but what are
they living for? Why put oif the en
joyments of life to some future time
that we are not certain will ever come?
Now every farmer, however humble,
can get every real enjoyment that a
milionaire can get. He can raise just
as fine food as the millioiiairs can eat,
and he can enjoy it just as well. He
frail sleep just as soundly, ami Nioks
and pajiers, are so cheap that he can
get all the mental food he can digest,
and there is no classic work of litera

that the fanner cannot also get. Isn't
U very foolish to drudge and stint one's
self to get rich for the sake of get ting
enjoyment in the future that we can
have right now ? To get all the luxuries
that the millionaire enjoys you m-ed :
1. A good garden, well stocked with
sulistantials, relishes and dainties.
2. A good orchard, with fruits for all
seasons.
3. One or two Jersey cows, strictly
for home use.
4. Points for the lmys and girls.
5. riciity of good liooks and papers,

said the patient.
"Why, certainly," replied the doctor.
"How long will it take to get well?"
"Oh. I inicss about two months," said

"Positively the worst I've seen."

An Unknown Correspondent
Alphoiise Daiidct said recently : "For
the List 15 years every three months I
have received a note, written with
Iiciicil, from the same man, who evl-
lently is a great traveler, for his letters
bear all the stanqM of the world. He
tells me that he trains animals to pro
nounce my name and then lets theui go.
I have never lieen able to find out who
he is "

more than good all the advertising
-lainicd for them, the following four
remedies have reached a phenomenal
sale. Dr. King's New Discovery, for

A Bird in an Organ Pipe.
Birds in Bangor Cathedral are s:-.id
to lie not at all uncommon. A Welsh
journal relates the fate of two. One of
these unlucky feathered intruders found
its way into the lli-foot pijie of the
cathedral organ, to the detriment of the
music. To eject it the organist sent a
sudden blast through the pipe, and
with a thunderous diapason the bird
was shot tint likeals-11 from an air-gun.
The scared bird, panic-stricken, vainly
dashed for cscajie against a large win
dow, and fell stunned into a bucket of
water.

Queer Marriage Ceremony.
A curious marriage ceremony L tli.it
oliscrved hy the Negrilors. These -t-
ile are siiid to lie the reiim.-tiits of a
race of ancient iygmies, and still exist
in the interior of tiie rhilipiine Islands,
where they live after their primitive
ashion, an.l preserve their ancient
customs and traditions unmolested and
unnoticed. When two Negritors are
united, the whole trilie is assent!.!.-.!,
ami the aliaiued jtair climh two tri-es
growing iii-ar to each other ; tiie ciders
then licnd the hrauehes until the heads
of the couple meet. When the heads
have thus come into contact, the mar
riage is legally accomplished, and gr.-at
rejoicing fake place, a fantastic damv
completing the ceremony.
Two Valuable Friends.
1. A physician can not always In

Ilrtiises and P.tirns occur often and

A Graad Feature
Of H-mhI's Sarsiip-.trilla is that while it
iniriln-s the hiood and scuds it cours
ing through the veins full of richness
and health, it also imparts new lifeund
vigor to every function of the lmdy.
Hence the expression so often heard:
"Hisid's SarsajKirillu made a new p-r-
son of inc." It overcomes that tired
feeling so eoiiimon now.
