In the Matter
Of Elizabeth
By S. T. STERN
Copjrttflit, luot, by 8. T. Btera
Tbere were two Elizabeth Lang
baius. For fifteen years they had lived
almost side by side, and neither of
them bad learned of the other's exist
ence. Three hundred feet of inetroi>oll'
tan space and several hundred thou
sand dollars separated theui socially
and completely. The elder Miss Lang
ham resided near the middle of the
block In a piutocmtlc white stone man
•lou. At tbe corner of the same street
In a modest flat house lived tbe other
KlUabeth.
Though uwither of tbem was aware
of the circumstances, these two pos
aessed one link iu common. Ills par
ents knew him as James Carruthers.
His clients and professiouai friends
called blm Jack, the counselor. Miss
I.unghaw knew blm as her oldest und,
be hoped, her best friend. Elizabeth
I.angbani knew bim as her employer.
Elisabeth Laughau. often wondered
that Jim had selected her from two
doseu applicants for tho position of ste
nographer iu his legal establishment.
A callow graduate from a business col
lege, she had hardly hoped to gain ac
ceptance over a score of experienced
typists. The true reason—her name
she never guessed. Still Jim bad no
reason to regret bis choice. Miss Eliza
beth was neat, pretty and bright. Jim
dictated to her daily, and she tran
scribed without an error.
Not so Miss Laughum, the focus of
flfly bachelor asplratious. Jim tried
dictation there only once.
"Mr. Carruthers," suld Miss Langtiani
coldly, "you are taking a mean advan
tage of our friendship. You have no
right to criticise my other friends. I
am proud to number Judge Newton
among my friends."
"But he's tlfty If he's a day," Jim
persisted.
"So shall you be, Mr. Carruthers -
some day. Good ntgbt."
There were tears after Jim had taken
bis departure, but that Jim did not
kuow. He did know, however, that
Miss Laugbain had dismissed him, and
he sorrowed accordingly.
"It's that fellow, t'olonel Newton,"
be mused. "Since they've elected him
a Judge Elizabeth has been Indiffer
ent to ine. Mrs. Judge Newtou evi
dently sounds better to her young
ears than plain Mrs. Jimmy Carruth
ers." So he floundered homeward in
the slush of a winter evening and
nursed his first great sorrow.
Sorrow maketb a sympathizer.
Jimmy, blue and bopeless, became hu
manitarian In a week. One morulng
when bis stenographer. Miss Eliza
beth, showed blm a court summons
which had been served upon her, de
manding that she pay the sum of $1!50
forthwith or suffer tbe entry of Judg
ment for tbat amount, Jimmy simply
radiated consolation. "Who is this
Mine. Nellie who is suing you 7"
"I never beard of her," wae the re
sponse.
Jim scanned tbe papers closely.
"Mme. Nellie." he «ald after he had
finished, "seems to he tbe trade name
of • being whose Christian appellation
la Michael O'Malley. He says you
ordered one blue dress of tbe value of
92G0. He swears that you have re
fused to accept It, and he suee accord
ingly."
"There must be tome mistake. I
never ordered a dree* one-fourth as
expensive as that. Nor have I ever
laid eyes on Mmo. Nellie."
"Where do you live?" he inquired.
Her reply astonished him. "No.
Sixth avenue."
"Il that near Fortyseventh street?"
"It la on the corner. The side street
is very fashionable. This summons
must be Intended for some wealthy
woman near by who doesn't pay her
bills."
When Jim saw that the papera were
algned In the name of the Hon.
William Newton, justice, his mind
was made up. He told his secretary
to hare no fear. He was happy to
show his appreciation of her faithful
and long continued service.
He tried the £dse himself. Ills rival
sat on his bench and glared savagely
at him—at least that Is Jimmy's re
port of the judicial attitude.
As It happeneJ, Mine. Nellie was not
present In the courtroom, having been
detained elsewhere on jury duty.
In his place he sent two of his as
sistants. One of them took the stand
at once—a tlorld faced lady she was,
who confessed amiably that she had
been a dressmaker for twenty-one
years and was approaching her thir
tieth birthday. "It's tills way, judge,
yer honor," she testified glibly. "Mme.
Nellie sent the dress, and she sent
It back, saying It didn't tit. I didn't
have nothing to do with It, but the
lady lu our house as did has assured
me that It fitted to perfection. Mme.
Nellie says Miss Langhain should be
compelled to pay."
At this point Jim felt called upon to
explain matters. "You see," he start
ed to say, "they've got the wrong"--
Judge Newton waved him aside.
"The Issue in this case Is simple. Does
the gown fit? That Is all. I would
like to ask Miss Langbam a question
or two. Take tbe stand, miss "
Miss Langbam did so.
"What Is your name?"
"Elisabeth Langham."
"Where do you live?"
"No. Sixth avenue."
"You may retire to my private cham
ber *pd don the dress. The plaintiff's
experts will accompany you."
Miss Langham commenced to weep.
"If you please, Judge Newton," she
etammered.
"Do as 1 say," ne responded testily.
"The court will Judge for itself."
Five minutes later Miss Langbam
re-entered the courtroom clad In the
gown under dispute. Mme. Nellie's
expert beamed with satisfaction as she
addressed the court. "You can seo
for yourself, Judge, yer honor. It fits
without s wrinkle."
"I should call that an amaxlngly
good lit" said Judge Newton, frown
ing, a<Mlng by the way of Judicial con
cession, "and mightily becoming. It
fits, doesn't It?"
"Y-o-i," said Miss Langham, "but"—
"That's all. Judgment for Mme. Nel
lie for tbe full amount."
Once more Jim rose from his chair.
"Won't you permit me to say a few
words? There has been a mistake."
"There has not, Mr. Carruthere, un
less It be your olrn In endeavoring to
defend a ease in which the evidence la
so palpably In favor of tbe other side."
On the way back to the office Jim
conaoied hla client He promised to
appeal the case to the highest court
lu the country.
In bis heart he knew that tbe case of
Mme. Nellie versus Miaa Elizabeth
Langham would never be heard In
court again.

Schuyler Happenings.
MR. EDlTOß: —Haying is pretty
well done at this tiiue and harvesting
begun. The grnin is none too ri|K\
however. In some instances rust lias
l«*en found ami does some damage.
Cloudy, rainy ami uool weather lias
retarded grain in lipeuing. During
the early part of last week tlie weath
er was very favorable for hay mak
ing. It only re<|U.r t d the cutting,
raking up and hauling iu.
Mrs. John D. Ellis, while going
down a stairway iu the bam, fell and
fractured three ribs.
Mrs. Win. Lindaner's brother,
Itev. George Hitter, with his wife and
child, of Indiana, are visiting her
family at this place, and also his
father, near Fullmer'* church.
Mrs. Harry Hoy narrowly escaped
death last Thursday. She was in tlie
barn while a load of hay was being
unloaded, when a large plauk fell,
striking her oil the head, cutting the
scalp o|>eii. The wound required
nine stitches to close it.
Milton Derr, of Turbotvitle, died
last Saturday morning, utter u long
iHnes of consumption. He went to
several places to obtuin relief, only
to return home to die. The funeral
will tuke place on Wednesday.
On Wednesday morning the work
of repairing St. James' Lutheran
church, Turbotville, will be begun.
The work will require about three
mouths, and during this time the
congregation will worship in the lie
formed church.
The Ladies' Aid Society of"St.
James will hold a festival next Satur
day evening iu the church, for the
benefit of the re|air fund. Every
body is invited to attend.
Turbotville covered herself with
glory ou Tuesday. The town was
handsomely decorated with hunting
and Chinese lanterns. The parade
took place at t! o'clock, and was a
success. The locul Lodge of Odd
Fellows turned out with a food I y
number, and the bulance was made
up of floats representing various kinds
of business. The base ball club hail
a festival, and if the numbers that
patroulzed it counted for anything,
it was another success. Several races
took place, aflording a great deal of
amusement for the crowd. The two
games of ball between Turbotville
and Picture Kocks resulted in favor
of the former. There was a very
large erowd present, including resi
dents of adjoining towns and the sur
roundiug country. Everybody was
there and had their best girls with
them.
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas, of Phila
delphia; Miss Edith Irwin, of Mitlliu
bui'tf, iiinl Miss Maud VauDyne, of
Bloomsburg, were the guests of Mr.
J. \Y. Itwiu and family.
Mies Naomi Glaze, of Jersey Shore,
is visiting relatives at Schuyler and
vicinity.
Mr. Schuyler Irwin, of Susquehan
na University, speut a short vacation
with his parents.
Mr. Frank Ellis goes around with
a very large smile ou his face, because
a girl baby came to his house to stay
last Saturday.
Miss Kuthryn Wagner sailed for
.— ''**-<1 iroin ncr coupe at 0 o'clock
that evening she found her household
In an uproar. Mutlillde, ber maid, \v;is
alinoat breathless. "If you please,
ma'am," she gasped, "there's a mun In
the parlor—a sheriff or something,
and he's been holding the best peach
blow vase these two hours. I gent fur
the pol Ico. 'Hie police says he can't
do nothing He told the man to wait.
There he Is now, ma'am, sitting 011 the
best gilt clialr, with the vase In his
hand, ma'am."
The Intruder advanced as Miss
Langham entered the parlor. Yes, he
was a deputy. There was a Judgment
against Elizabeth I.augham In favor
of Mme. Nellie. Didn't she remember
the dress she ordered from Mme.
Nellie?
"But I sent It back. It did not fit."
"Of course," said be suavely, "that
may have been the defense. A Judg
ment Is a Judgment, however. Will you
pay up or shall 1 make a levy?" he add
ed, casting longing glances at the vase.
"This shall not go unpunished. It Is
an outrage," said Miss Langbam indig
nantly. "Walt until I ring up my
friend, Judge Newton."
"Your friend'/" The deputy laughed.
"You will receive Instruction* from
him."
"I have received 'em already. It was
Judge Newton that entered the Judg
ment against you. Here are the papers.
This is his own writing."
One glance satisfied Miss Langbam.
She bade Mathllde bring her chock
book. "I'll pay," she said. "In the
meantime you may release that vase.
It Is hardly a tea store souvenir."
• ••••••
That same evening Jamee Carnitbers
aat In his den, reading Dante's "Infer
no." He had finished "The Borrows of
Werther" the day before. At his elbow,
still to be perused, lay "The Joy of Liv
ing."
The telejihone bell Jangled twice, but
be did not hear. At the third call he
rose from his chair. A moment later
the volume weut speeding on ita way
across the room.
This is Jim's end of the conversation
that followed:
"Itepresent you is the matter? Glad
ly. Paid it, you say? Tried to take
oh, my I Newton? Beastly Impudence!
Called tonight after all that happened?
You treated him right. Yes, d-e-a-r le.
In ten minutes."
The next morning Jim informed his
stenographer gleefully that the Mme.
Nellie matter was settled out of court
and that she might retain the dress us
a gift. Later be called upon the deputy
aherllT.
"I am sorry, counselor," said the oil!
clal, "that duty compelled me togo

the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first
step should be towards the treatment of

trouble is due to a diseased condition of the

most people suppose.
Women as well as men are made mis

A Woman Who Succeeded
Writing of"American Women in
Business" in the NEW IDEA WO
MAN'S MAGAZINE for August, Miss
Elizabeth Howard f West\vood says :
"If you talk to the heads of business
concerns which cmplqy large numbe.'s
of women, they will tell you stories
which tax your credulity. One of
Chicago's bigest department stores has
as the buyer of its jewelery a woman
who started in as messenger girl
twelve years ago. ller parents were
t the poorest Russian immigrants. She
i was kept in school only until she was
of working age. From the first she
showed unusual intelligence and in
dustry, and has risen rapidly from
step to step until she now draws a sal
ary of So.ooo a year, and htakis
uearly as much again on her commis
sions. She has passed many men in
her race and won out entirely on the
grounds of her industrial efficiency.
This is, of course, a case so unusual
that it seems almost to belong to the
class of miraculous occurences. lUit
it has proved that, given the ability,
sex is no obstacle."
A~L7NCOLN STORY.
When Lew Wallace First Met the
Third Rnte Lawyer.
Tlie few uneventful years Lew Wnl- !
lace spent iif Covington were distill- |
guishitl by on| important event. It I
was there that he saw Abraham Lin
coln for the first time. The Indiana
bar had even then some brilliant and
notable men among its members, and
a ease of extraordinary interest had
culled them together at the fall term
of the circuit court. In relating the cir
cumstance General Wallace said: "Dur
ing the session we were in the habit of
gathering at the old tavern in tlie even
lug after adjournment. It was a bril
liant company, whose talk was well
worth hearing. One evening there ap
peared suddenly in our midst a tall,
ungainly man, homely of visage and
rather shabbily dressed. He did not
Intrude himself, but sat on the out
skirts of the company, neither proffer
lug opinions nar taking sides in the
controversies tlmt occasionally became
pretty warm. No one seemed to know
anything about him, and when I asked '
a friend who'he was he replied care
lessly, *ph, that is some third rate law- i
yer, a man named Lincoln from some
where in Illinois.' One evening, how
ever, after he had been there some
time," General Wallace continued,
"something moved him to speak, aud
then he began to talk. We all sat spell
bound.
"I have never," General Wallace said, |
"heard anything that approached it—
the logic, the wit, the pertinent auec- '
dote, that poured out in an unceasing I
stream. He talked thus for three solid
hours. Borne one said, 'Whoever that I
fellow Is, we shall liear from him !
again some day.' It was m.v first meet- (
lug with Abraham Lincoln," he said, j
"and the prophecy that we should hear i
from him again, it must be admitted. | :
was abundantly verified."—Mary U. j '
Krout in Harper's Weekly.

Why Sailor* Wear Collars.
Probably not many people, including
the wearers themselves, know the or- 1
lgln of the sailor's collar. Many years
ago when Jack Tars wore their hair in '
pigtails, which they were in the habit t
of keeping very greasy, the backs of 1
their coats used to get in a very dirty J
and \intidy condition owing to coming
In contact with the hair, consequently
the order was given for a detachable
and washable collar to be worn, so that
they might look more tidy.—Loudon
Standard.
Forget Oace la Awhile.
The health of the body as well as of
the mliul depends upon forgetting. To
let the memory of a wrong, of angry
words, of petty meanness, linger and
rankle in your memory will not only
dissipate your mental energy, but it
will react upon the body. The secre
tions will be diminished, digestion im
paired, sleep disturbed and the general
health suffer in consequence. Forjfet
&ng is a splendid mental callsthenlc
and a good medicine for the body.
