OGLE | | CONWAY'S RESOLUTION Conway was in trouble. The tele gram on his desk was the disquieting cause. It is nothing unusual for a telegram to bring bad rews, but Con- way’s countenance told of perplexity rather than distress. Though he knew the communication by heart, he took it up and read it again, as if in hopes of finding some clew amid the laconie obscurity characteristic of telegrams: “Will come by North-western five thirty train red roses. MARIE.” Conway’s girl friends are numerous. Each summer he makes them by scores. Give him an introduc:ion as an opening wedge and in two days’ time he will be calling a girl by her given name. Naturally the abundance of these radiant memories has result- ed in a certain vagueness of outline, but never before had Conway lost his bearings so completely. For the life of him he couldn’t re- member Marie. Whether she wag short or tall, dark or fair, a sylph i i with dreamy eyes and a plaintive voice, or dimpled and rosy and mis- chievous, Conway could not say. Nor could he ever remotely conjec- ture what red roses had to do with the case. The 5.30 train was late. Conway had time to review again his summer vacations for several years back without discovering the identity of Marie. When at length the train pulled in there seemed a discouraging prepon- derance of elderly women and ma- trons, accompanied by their families. The few good-looking girls who passed met Conway's expression of glad welcome with freezing stares. He was on the point of giving up when he saw a girl coming toward him with a bunch of red roses in her hand. Conway advanced eagerly, ex- claiming, “Marie.” But he experienced a distinct shock when he found him- self unable to recall a single feature of the pretty face raised to his. Marie seemed glad to see him, but at the same time her face wore a puzzled expression. “I suppose I'm stupid,” she said, “but I really can’t think who you are. I'm sure you aren't Pearl.” This with a little laugh. “No, but I come pretty near it,” re- turned Conway. “I'm Paul.” “Oh, you are ‘Paul, are you?” said Marie, noncommittally. Then, with more animation, “Isn’t it the funniest thing, this coming to visit Pearl, when I haven't seen her since we were little NSIS IN ] girls? You know I carried the roses so she would be sure to recognize me. That's how you knew me, wasn’t it?” “Yes, that’s how I knew you,” ad- mitted Conway, truthfully enough. “I'm relieved to find you here,” Marie chatted on. “You know I didn’t telegraph till this morning, and then I didn’t know anything about Pearl's downtown address, except that she was employed somewhere in the Mon- adnock building.” She fumbled in her pocket book anl drew out a check. “Will you please see about having my trunk sent up?” It was a crucial moment. “Where shall I have it sent, please?’ asked Conway. - “Why, to Pearl's, of course. Here's the address, though I suppose you know it well enough,” with an arch look. Conway did not know (it well enough. He eagerly clutched the card she held out to him. Then he started, for the name “Miss Pearl Con- way” was so like his own that in an instant the mystery of the telegram flashed upon him. It had been directed to Pearl Conway instead of Paul Con- way. He had no ground, after all, to accuse his memory of playing him false. Conway escorted Marie to her friend's home and took an abrupt de- parture, refusing her invitation te come in. “I suppose I shall see you very soon,” Marie suggested, smiling knowingly. It was clear she had come to the conclusion that the relation be- tween Conway and her friend Pearl was of a sentimental character. Conway departed much cast down. “lI shall never see her again, of course,” he said. “Yet she’s killingly pretty. If I met her on the street I should want to run. I might have ex- plained if it hadn't seemed to be ridiculous to tell her that I imagined that I had known her somewhere and forgotten her.” He sighed, feeling decidedly ill-used. But in the course of the ride home his natural cheerfulness reasserted itself. When he took out his latchkey to let himself into the house, though subdued, he was no longer sad. “A fellow learns something from every experience,” thought Conway. “After this I'll keep a list.” i | | 50 YEARS! #, EXPERIENCE PATENTS TrADE MARKS DESIGNS SosyricuTs &c. ne sending a sketch and description may TE ascertai g our opinion fi i: an invention is probably patentable.

The number of eggs, fry, fingerlings and adult fish distributed oy the United States bureau of fich- eries in 1902 aggregated 1,500,000. It is certain that the shad, whitefish, lake trout and pike perch fisheries, each of vast importance, have not only been saved from entire depletion, but that they have been maintained chiefly through artificial propagation, at a high degree of productiveness. That these fisheries are industries to- day, valued at nearly $3,000,000 an- nually, is due entirely to artificial propagation. The Negro in Buckingham Palace. Perhaps it is fortunate that Buck- ingham Palace is not the White House or the proffered handshake might be a serious matter, for the Alake is a negro. There is much, meanwhile, that is picturesque and quaint, and something, too, that is amusing from a certain incongruity in such ceremon- fes as that which took place in Buck- ingham Palace recently. But such things are not without their element of political importance. The personal factor counts for much in an empire such as ours—wherein so many of the component parts are oriemtal or bar- baric. And because the Great White King was gracious to the Alake, the material prosperity of part of the West African possessions of the crown may be sensibly increased.—Londom Chronicle.

Part of a set of harness and a section of a string of sleighbells were found on the pilot of the engine hauling the Chicago limited when it reached Al- toona from the East on Thursday. In- vestigation disclosed the fact that the train bad struck Moody Thompson, of Huntingdon, as he was crossing the tracks at Ardenheim. The horse was killed, but Thompson escaped. —Wind- ber Era. The editor of Tne Star is well ae- quainted with Moody Thompson, hav- ing known him years ago in Carleton, Neb. He is now located at Hunting- don, Pa., where the editor had the pleasure of meeting him during the Keim-Brumbaugh breach of promise trial, several years ago. We are glad to know that the iron horse didn’t kill Moody, and we doubt whether he had as close a call as he once had in Ne- braska when we came near drowning him with a milkshake. STARTLING BUT TRUE. People the world over were horrified on learning of the burning of a Chicago theater in which nearly six hundred people lost their lives, yet more than five times this number or over 3,000 people died from pneumonia in Chicago during the same year, with scarcely a passing notice. Every one of these cases of pneumonia resulted from a cold and could have been prevented by the timely use of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. A great many who had every reason to fear pneumonia have warded it off by the prompt use of this remedy. The following is an instance of this sort: “Too much cannot be said in favor of Chamberlain’s Cough Rem- edy, and especially for colds and influ- enza. I know that it cured my daugh- ter, Laura, of a severe cold, and I be- lieve saved her life when she was threatened with pneumonia.” W. D. WirLcox, Logan, New York. Sold by E. H.

GIVE YOUR STOMACH A REST. Your food must be properly digested and assimilated to be of any value to you. If your stomach is weak or dis- eased take Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. It digests what you eat and gives the stomach a rest, enabling it to recuper- ate, take on new life and grow strong again. Kodol cures sour stomach, gas, bloating, heart palpitation and all di- gestive disorders. L. A. Soper, of Lit- tle Rock, Ky., writes us: “We feel that Kodol Dyspepsia Cure deserves all the commendation that can be given it, as it saved the life of our little girl when she was three years old. She is now six and we have kept it for her constantly, but of course she only takes it now when anything disagrees with her.” Sold by E. H.

RECENT invention has revolutionized the art of making printing The purpose of the corporation is to secure 1o American newspapers the absolute control of their ink supply independently of any industrial combination or uther outside influence, and, at the same time, to make money for its stockholders through the sale of printing inks to publishers and printers in all parts of the civilized world. The corporation owns and operates, in New York City, a printing ink factory having a capacity of 10,000 pounds of printing ink a day. The factory is equipped with the latest and most highly improved machinery for the manufacture of all grades and colors of printing inks. The corporation owns and operates, outside of New York, a modern and fully equipped factory for the preparation ‘of the materials from which printing inks are made. This factory represents an outlay of be- tween $50,000 and $100,000 in cash. It has a capacity at present of 100,- 000 pounds a day. It is the intention of the corporation to bring the capacity of its New York City factory up to the full capacity of the works. By reason of the recent improvement in the quality of the materials and the reduction in the cost of manufacture, the corporation is able to offer to investors this plain business proposition: It ean manufacture better printing inks at a lower cost than any other maker of inks in exist- ence. It can sell good inks for less than it costs other concerns to make poor inks, and still earn generous dividends on ils outstanding investment. The profits of manufacture, under the new and more favorable conditions, will range from 100% to 3009. The corporation has no debt,no preferred stock, no bonds. All stock is common stock, full-paid and non-assessable. ! Only stock actually issued counts as capital. Dividends are paid only on issued stock. The active management ofjthe business is in the hands of practical and experienced men, all except two of whom have had many .years’ ex- perience as editors and publishers. The Executive Board of Directors is made up as follows: ‘Major General Oliver Otis Howard, U. 8. Army (retired), Burling- ton, Vermont ; Robert Hunt Lyman, 53-63 Park Row, New York City; Henry W. B. Howard, Polytechnic Institute, Brooklyn, N. Y.; B. Peele Willet, 142 Fifth Avenue, New York City% Hiram C. Haydn, 173 Bell- flower Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio; Edward B. Smith, 156 Fifth Avenue, New York City; William Willard Howard, 17 Broadway, New York City. For the purpose of extending its business by the construction in New York City of a larger factory for the manufacture on an extensive scale of all grades and colors of printing inks, ‘the parent corporation now offers for sale a limited allotmentfof its} capital stock at the low price of fifty cents a share (par value, $1.00, full-paid and non-assessable). When this sale is closed (which may be at any time without notice), the price of stock will be advanced to $1.00 a share. Subscriptions to this allotment of stock should be sent to Mr. Wil- liam Willard Howard, Treasurer, 17 Broadway, New York City.
