In J . IV. jfuller Jackson I'eters regarded the girl by Ills side almost with horror. "I onn't help what you tliiuk," she cried dellautly. "I just euu't stand this sort of thing nuy longer." "You don't have to,"he urged gently. "You Just say the word. Sally, and I'll j see your pn tomorrow." "Can't you understand. Jack Pe ters?" she cried, with n stamp of the : foot. "That woman wouldn't let me take the high school course 'cause I'd he wnntin' togo to college next, she j said. She Just don't want to see me ' do anything grand; just get married and settle slaving for some man Just as I've been slaving for her ever I since pa married her." "Don't you think," he suggested gen tly, "that perhaps she means well? She's seen a lot of the world. Mebbe she knowß 'twouldn't do no good." "There you go, preaching like all the rest," she stormed. "Some of these days you'll wake up and tlnd me gone. I cuu be as gooJ as her." "1 d(#i't see why you waut togo off and "be foolish Jest because you don't like Mrs. Burrows," be declared gently. "She means well." ' "I'm going to be like her," Insisted the girl, pointing to a lurid poster rep- j resenting a young woman In gay ap parel standing upon the tip of her toe on the back of a spirited horse. "She ! was one of 'em once. I guess I can ride that way as well as on a saddle." "Hub," mused Tcters. "A girl as can cook as well as you ain't got no call to be trapesing round the country with a circus." Sally Burrows got down from the wall. "AH the same," she cried defi antly, "I'm goin' with 'em," with a nod toward the circus posters. "I guess } can cook for 'em until I can ride." She darted off down the road, refers looked regretfully nfter her. He knew from experience the futility of seeking to overtake her. Thing* hud been well between him self and Sully Burrows until her father had married a circus rider who had beeu thrown from her horse and left behind by the show until her fractured leg grew well. Long before that time she had won the affections of Iliram Burrows, und she made him a good wife. Sally, how ever, had refused to accept her new mother, and there had been quarrels ever since Iliram had brought home his bride. The girl resented the Intrusion of another woman In her mother's place and her own dethronement as mistress of the bouse. Now she chafed to leave the quiet home and make a name for herself even as the rival had done, nud Jack son Peters pleaded in vain. He had a stroi\g ally in Mrs. Bur rows, who saw that the girl In. a home of her own would be far happier than In iier father's house, but this very alli ance was against lilni, amfcSally from the barn saw him go Into the house, and her slender frame shook with sobs as she realized that Jack was talking over her new Idea with her stepmother. She did not, however, connect Jack son's visit with his departure for the county town the following day, nor did she realize that he carried with him a letter to the proprietor of Wells' Grand United Shows and Consolidated Men ageries; therefore It was with 110 sus picion that she regarded that gentle man's enthusiastic welcome of her proposition that she Join the troupe and act ns cook until she could learn to be a performer. "Just what I wanted," he cried Jo vially. "You've got the very build for a rider. We lay over here tomorrow, oud I'll give you your first lesson in the afternoon." Sully wanted to wait, but Wei's woukl take uo denial. The show would stay on the grounds over Sunday, and there was no time to be lost. Sho could slip away from her people, and he could tell Just what sbe could do. Her stepmother had driven over to the next town for a visit after the matinee performance Saturday, and there was nothing to binder ber from keeping her appointment with Wells. One of the women furnished her with a costume from ljpr own wardrobe, and Sally, blushing furiously at the bloom ers, crept Into the ring. Wells was teaching ills own daughter to lide, and to the center pole of the tent bad been added a huge boom wblch reached out as far as the cir cumference of the rlpg. From a pulley at the end of tills dutogled a rope with the horrible suggestion of a gallows, and beneath It stood a broad backed white horse, bis back sticky with pow dered resin. A man lu his undershirt and overalls, looking very little like the ring master of the afternoon before, Btood talking with the tired faced clown. As sho appeared he came toward her with * broad canvas belt. This they fastened about her waist, booking the ring at the back Into the dangling rope. The ring master lifted her to the horse's back, while the clown pulled the rope tight, and with a few brief directions about keeping her bal ance the ring master cracked the whip anil the horse started off. For two or three paces she kept her balance, then, with a yell, she realized that she was falling. Her feet went up and the weight of her body was thrown against the belt. They let her down, gasping for breath, until she clutched the horse's mane and could regain her footing. Then the dreadful whip cracked again, and again she bung by the belt wildly waving her limbs. The boom was pusnuu around so that she kept always over the back of the horse, and by an effort she recovered her balance, aided soSle wliat by the slackening of the rope at the end of the "mechanic." Twice arouud the ring and ber am bition to be a rider died within her. She scrambled from the horse's back, trying to choke back the tears of hu miliation. Wells was all sympathy. "Perhaps you might be better as an acrobat," he suggested kindly. "You'd make a good enough rider If you kept nt it. Dolly, here, was worse than you when she started In. Want to try It again?" "I think I'd rather be an acrobat," sbe almost whispered, trying to choke Ijack Hie sobs. Acrobats were not left dangling over u horse, and they had a soft mat to fall upon. The clown led the horao from the ling, and two men unrolled a felt pad upon the aawdust. Even without the blue tights she recognized them as the acrobats, and she watched them curi ously as they fastened a rope about the belt. "Now, when we soy 'Now!' "cautioned . one, "you throw yourself forward Just . as though you were going to dive into **»■" She braced herself for the command It seemed uges In coming, but at last she heard the cry and gave a jump forward. She felt the rope around her [ waist tighten; she realized that she was spinning In tke air, und then she luud ed on hands and knees ou the pad. She had only turned twice, but it seemed as if she had I teen revolving In space for cn hour. ! For a moment she lay there, sobbing, until the kindly faced woman took her to the dressing tent. | "It's harder work than you thought, isn't it?" she asked kindly. "We all have togo through with that. I thought | they wore going to kill me before I learned to ride." I Wells seemed disappointed, but not | surprised, when hp learued that she had abandoned a circus career, but he ! was very idee about it, and she crept ' out of the tent humiliated and asham ed. I Three months later Jackson Peters 1 was saying goudhy to Mrs. Burrows before taking his bride to her new home. "Be a good husband to her, Jack," said the laily, "nud It you waut to hold her love never let her find out that I used to ride for Wells and that we had It fixed up for her." And Jackson, being wise, never told. Twelve- SerieM of l*erfumea. A leading authority on perfumes di vides the entire list Into twelve series— (l) floral, as of the rose, violet and the like; (2) herbal, as of bergamot, mint and other aromatic plants; (3j the grass series, comprising several fragrant grasses which grow in Ceylon or In dia, as the oraLge grass, which con tains an essential oil Identical with that of the orange, and ginger grass, which hus the perfume of the ginger root; (4) the citrine series, comprising the orange, lemon and their combina tions; (5) the spice series, derived from thti clove, cinnamon, allspice and the like; (t>) the wood scries, as the sandal wood, sassafras, rosewood, which de rives Its name not from the fact that It has the color of roses, but from' the odor exhaled by It when freshly cut; (T) the root series, as the orris root and many others; (8) the seed scries, as the caraway and vanilla; (U) the balm and gum series, of which there are many varieties; (10) all perfumes and es sences derived from fruits. The elev enth series consists of combinations ot the foregoing varieties, and the twelfth comprises all animal perfumes of what ever nature. How Large New Zealand Is. New Zealand is popularly supposed to be a group of comparatively unim portant Islands lying close off the coast of Australia and subject to what is vaguely termed "the Australian govern ment." As a matter of fact, it is about equal in area to the British islands, is distant some 1,200 miles from the neighboring continent, is an Independ ent, self governing colony and pos sesses more beautiful and varied scen ery than any other single country of the world except the United States. This colony consists of two large Is lands and a third small one, called Stewart island, to the south. The two large islands are properly called the North Island and the Middle Island, but In ordinary language the Middle island Is termed the South Island. As the South island is nearer to the ant arctic circle than the North island, It has, especially in its southernmost part, a cold climate. The North island has a warm enough climate to cause the ole ander and camellia to bloom luxurious ly, and In its northernmost part the orange grows well. Ancient Artiftta. Is It known generally that works of art were well paid for In ancient times? A German review furnished recently some particulars about that question. Polygnote of Tliasos, who lived about 450 B. refused, It Is true, any pay ment for his works and declared that he was' sufficiently rewarded with the title of citizen of Alliens, whl< .1 had been conferred 011 him. But such dis interestedness was seldom imitated. Thirty years later the painter Zeuxls of Heracleum was called to the court of Arehelaiiß 1., king of Macedoulu. lie received for'his frescoes in the palace of Pella 400 mines, about SB,OOO. Mna son of Elatliea paid $20,000 for a "Bat tle With the Persians," which he had ordered from Arlstldes, the leader of the Thehan school. Pampliilus of Sycl one gave a course of lectures 011 paint ing. Kneli pupil paid for attendance one talent, or $1,200 a year. Apelles re ceived twenty gold talents, about $240,- 000, for a portrait of Alexander I„ or dered by the city of Ephesus. The Guinea Worm, The famous guinea worm Is an In habitant of the tropical regions of Asia and Africa, existing in ponds, rivers and swamps. It penetrates the skin of uny portion of the human body without being felt and when once it finds lodgment grows to an enormous length. The body of the creature sel dom exceeds in diameter that of a> large pin, and It lnhublts the flesh just beneath the skin. When full grown It Is not less than twelve feet in length and In order to accommodate Itself must wind several times urouud the legs or body. Should the guinea worm find a home under the human cuticle and grow to a large size there la dan ger of mortification setting in when the parasite bursts, as It Is sure to do sooner or luter. In order to guard against an accident of this character great care Is exercised In extracting the unwelcome Intruder. ThV skin Is opened near one end of the creature and the body pulled out and wrapped around a small round stick. This stick Is turned very slowly for days, or even weeks, until tho entire worm has been extracted. He Had Been There. The clergyman was holding a chil dren's service at a continental resort. During the lesson he had occasion to catechise Ills hearers on the parable of the unjust steward. "What Is a steward?" he asked.

MAN HELPED CAPTURE JEFF DAVIS his Story Tciminalcs Con troversy iis lo Wi.o Earn, ed 1 hat Honor. PAPERS TO PROVE IT After a controversy extending over more limn a s-ore of year?, the honor of capturing Jefferson Davis lias gone, by virtue of indisputable proof which they liohl, to George Kinke, of De troit, and C'aSpar Knobel, who lives nt 207.'! Kitst Cumberland street, Phi ladelphia . In the evidence possessed by these meu are their discharge papers, which set forth the fact they consummated the capture of the Confederate Presid ent and the check stubs from the War Department, giving them a share of the reward offered for his apprehen sion. Since their comradeship in the war these two men had not met until 1902, when Knobel was enabled to find Rinke with the assistance of the Pin sion Department. Since that time they have corre sponded regularly, and have united iu a statement giving the true story of Davis' capture so that history shall 110 longer be at fault. As to'd by Knobel, this story is briefly as follows: We were both members of a de tachment from tlic Fourth Michigan Cavalry, which went from Macou, Gn., on the evening of May 7, 1860, to search for the fleeing Hebel Pre ident. On the morning of the 10th, after three days' chase, it was decided to send out three small detachments from the main body. Kinke and I were with twelve other men iu one of these small detachments. Our party had gone but a short distance when we discovered a dying camp fire. Rinke and i were picked by the lieutenant from the detach ment to make an inspection. We rode along quietly and suddenly pull ed up before a few tents that showed white in the black of the night. I dismounted, and while Rinke held my mule. I tore opt 11 the flap of the lirst tent. It was the one oc cupied by Mr. Davis, his wife and family. I remained 011 guard at the en trance to Mr. Davis' lent. Mrs. Davis threw a shawl over her hus band's shoulders. At this juncture Corporal Munger rode up, and, pointing his revolver at the figure in the shawl, demanded. "Are you Jefferson Davis?" The reply came, "I think you have no right to ask that question." "Answer or I shall fire," was Mlinger' B retort, and it was success ful. Mrs. Davis was badly frighten ed, and liad thrown herself between Munger and her husband, exclaiming, "Yes, he is. Why dou't you tell them, papa !" In admitting his identity, Davis said: "I suppose you consider it brave to charge a train oi' defenseless women and children; but it is theft it is vandalism." I received 829.'! as my share of the SIOO,OOO reward. The remainder was divided among the 41!) men ill our regiment, though they had not actually participated. Each of the officers received 83000. Kinke got 8333. OASTOniA. Bear« tho The Kind You Have Always BougH Strawberry Ridge. MR. EDITOR: —This is very change able weather. If it stays this way I am afraid the wheat crop will he a failure.
