"Maybe you'd rather not hev her'.'" "If you can't git uo one else, I reekon we'll have to, fer ma can't stay here all the time." Sam's gone to pit Win Pott's to stay with you. hain't lie?" said her mother, a little while after, as she laid a little bundle down on Lindy's arm and tucked the covers around it. "1 tell yoo now, you'd better keep an eye on that girl and Ham." "Why, ma, Sam and me's married. You don't want to talk that wav."

"Marry In' don't always keep folks i

from aetm the fool. "Rut ma, we've got the baby," she said, as she turned the shawl back from the little, smooth head, and looked fondly at the tiny, red wrinkled face. "Don't you think the baby looks like Sam, ma?" "No. it's too flat-nosed to look like

anybody." And then, seeing Lindy's disanno'intcd look, she added: "Hut it's i

more'n likely 'twill favor him when it Sits big." In a little while Sam drove up with Win. She hurried in the house. "And so you and Sam's trot a baby," she said. 'Why, how awful pore you air, Lindy. Yore complexun's jest awful. Oh, there's the baby. Now, ain't it cute; looks the pieter of Sam. Ain't it a prettv little toad? I'd think you'd love it terrible. Lindy." "I'm goin home now. Lindy," said her mother. "Win's here to see after you. and Sam says Iiis ma's a-comin ivvcr Sunday to stay with you. Now, take keer of yourself, and I'll run in to eeyou every day or two." "Come as on as you can, ma," said Lindy, looking after her as she went ut of the door. "Yes. I will; keep up your spirits." Tor the next few days things with Lindv and the baby went on very well.

Sam stayed around the house most of the time, ami in his bashful way jetted them both. It Iwthercd her to hear Sam and Win talking and laughing together in the kitchen at their meals. Sunday morning brought Ham's mother. "La, me, air you in bed yit?" she said, as she unpinned her shawl. "And the baby six days old. I always got out o bed tho "fourth day.

'I knowed it: all you need's to git up. Whose goin' to preaehiu' from here this mornin'? Ain't you a-goin'. Sam glanced at Lindy. She was looking wistfully toward him. "No, I guess not this mornin', ma." "You just scatter right out now an" fit rsatk. I'm lookin after things

Sunday clothes, and went Lindy watched them drive off. Her mother-in-law was busy in the kitchen, and she had a little cry all to herself. "Oh, we just had the best meetiu'," said Win, after they came home; "sn' some of the girls said Sam and me looked jest like married folks." Lindy had crawled back into bed. and when Sam came in a few minutes later she was lying with her face to the wall and he thought her asleep. "I'll hev to go over home after dinner," said Win. "I need more'n I brought with me. Wonder if Sara'll have time to drive me. We might a come that way from meetin' but 6am was in sech a hurry to git home." "Course he'll hev time," said his mother. "lie hain't got nothin' to do but pet Lindy. an the more he can be lnr aurn- the ouicker she'll git up. I

hate to see folks spiled in their raisin' like her. an it's 'bout time she was

lrn!n' diffi-runt."

"s.Tn von hitch un an' take Win

home for awhile." Ik he 'bliired to iro?" said Sam

"Yes. she's got to go while I'm here

to stay with Lindy." Late that evening, after he had brought Win back and his mother had gone, Sam went to the ted and, taking Lindy's hand, said: "You look like you was mighty nigh tired out." She drew her hand away and said: I ain't very tired." Lindy had never drawn away from Mm before. It made him uneasy. He

was going to take her hand again and j .L- h..r what was the matter, when I

Win put her head in the door and said. "Want somethin to eat, Sam? I've got a piece set out fer you." "Where's Win?" asked Lindy's mother one morning, when she had run In for a little while. "She's gone ot to the field to take Sam a drink." "Yes, ami she's making a plum fool of herself, too. The hull neighborhood's a talkia' about the way the'

simnerin' and fllrtln' 'round, if 1' la

That afternoon Sam camo in from the Held. "I've broke my plow a a' hev to go to town to get it fixed," he naid to LI tidy. "Sam, don't you think vta could git along now without Win? I feel real good, an' ma could come over un' help mn some." I'd ruther you'd keep her 'till you git good an' strong," he answered. "I b'lieve 1 could git about without her," said Lindy.

wagon. "To town," said Lindy. "Well, I'm a-goin', too. I've been a-wantiu' to fer two weeks." And running to the door she screamed: "Sam, hold on a minute, 'til I git ready." Lindy watched them drive away. She saw Win look up at Sam and say something, and Sam laughed. Shu

Hung herself down on the bed ana cried and cried. "I wish neither of 'em would ever come back, and I could go home and stay with ma. 1 wish I'd a died when the baby come." Tho baby cried and it took her a long while to quiet it. She wished her ma would come over, she was so lonesome. She

looked at the clock. Sam had leen gone almost long enough to get back, but she didn't want to see , Sam, and Win she felt as if she could choke her. Some one knocked at the door. She opened it and there stood old Mrs. Trover, the worst old gossip in the country. She never could bear her. but she was so louesome she was really glad to see her. After she had talked about the baby awhile and told Lindy how bad she looked, she said: "An' so you're still a-keepin' Win Potts " you? Well, I just come a-purpose to tell you if l's in your place I'd send her au' her traps a-ilyiu'."

Lindy grew pale, but she quietly asked: '"Why?" "Why, why, you'd orter know, an' 1 knowed some one must tell you, so I took it on myself to come over, Why she jisi hangs 'round your Sam ridiculous. Why, don't they go a-trottiu' off to church" together aii' over to her

She told me to tell you if you come that you could go homo and luive Win I'otts, that she's through with you." "Can't I see her jeit a miiiit?" pleaded Sam. "No, you can't, and tho old lady took her cup and left the room, shutting the door hard after her. Sara dropped into a chair and leaned hi

We'll go home to gran'ma, won't we, baby?" she said, as she took it in her arms. It was a mill, round the road, and about three-

quarters through the fields. She must hurry or they would be back. She wrapped the baby in a blanket, threw a shawl over her head and started

across the fields.

the afternoon. He went through the kitchen and on into the front room. Win stood staring around her. "Where is she?" he asked, wonderIn & , . "I don't know," aaid Win. "She ain't in the house." They searched both rooms, tho barns, and even looked down the well. "She's n-playin. some joke on you, Saia. I wouldn't take it so hard. The house is warm and there's some fire in the stove: she ain't been gone long." Win's coolness exasperated him. "Win Potts, do you know where she's . , t -1 i

at'.' said Sam, laying nisrougiinuuuu . her shoulder. Win looked up at him.

His face was pale. Sweat was stand- j Ing on his forehead and he was quivering all over, "Honest to God. Sam, I don't," she said; "but she's likely over to her ma's." Sam rushed out, got into the wagon and drove to her mother's. He didn't wait to knock, but walked right in. Her mother was standing over the stove stirring something in a cup for the baby.

"Is Lindy here? ' "Yes," wild his molher-in-law. "How did she git here?" "Walked." "Walked?" "Yes. vatkyd, Sam Wilson, walked. W'hau've you beeu a doin'? You've been a tlirtin' round with that Win Potts a toten of her over the country

it in his arms and tho tears rolled from

five dollars down on the table. "Give

He tried to go on with his work just the same. Hut he couldn't plow where he eould look over at the little houso

where Lindy used to be. Ho couldn't stay in the rooms where he had never HvimI an hour without her. and where

every little thing was made and placed In- her hands.

"I'll jest fix things up and get out o'

her. Her face was white and set

"Shall some of us go over and tell him not to iro?" she asked.

"No, ma, I'd rather you wouldn't." And she took the baby in her arms and

left the room.

Lindy wus pale and quiet all day. In th evenintr she nut her babv to sleep

and went out into the yard. It was a M'iirm evenincr in the middle of Mar.

The moon was shinintr. although it was

Canada will almost certainly lower her protective duties within a year. .Many other smaller and less Important countries are offering more favorable terms to trade und exchange. Kvcn the protection wall of China is soon to have gateways of trade through it The one country to which our protectionists have pointed with pride has been Germany. "See Germany," they would say; "look what protection has done for it! Hismarck, the greatest statesman living, except McKinley, knew what was good for Germany when he gave her protection. The Germans are one of the most enlightened peoples on earth; they stick to protection. Of course they don't have as high wages as free trade Kngland. but wnges are higher there than when protection was first adopted." Hut Germany is just now turning away f-om both Hismarck and protection. The farmers are the only class

that can be protected m oermany, jusi, as the manufacturers are the only class that can be protected In this country. The farmers there have been enjoying very high protection but, Hkcour manufacturers, they are never satisfied and

they have been striking their government for higher and higher duties on

foreign grains. Of course it is hard on tho m:ismt in Geruianv to have to pay

monopoly prices for their bread and oth

er food. Tlius.uecause of "protection, refined beet sugar sells for overO cents per pound in Germany, although the

Tho daj's of protection are num

This sounds well and there would ho no fault to find with It, except that it is not truo, if Quigg did not proceed to explain what ho means by the "simple, practical plan" of republican tariff legislation und by "protection to our industries" Continuing he says: "If the republican party should follow their precedent it would simply hunt all democratic industries and assassinate them in broad daylight, simply because they were democratic. It would trent every importer of foreign goods as an outlaw and put a price on his head. This was precisely tho action taken toward tho manufacturers by the democratic party, headed by Mr. Cleveland. from 1S87 to im. When the country's prosperity was at its highest; when thero tWn whisner of a demand from any

class or any Individual in the country for a chnnge in the industrial conditions by a tariff, it set to worktomako a St. Hartholomew's day for the manufacturing class." This is vlrtuallv admitting that the

A Drrnry lMrturnof What .MlRht lfupprn Undr Millionaire Monopoly. "Uncle Sam's Cabins" is the title of a decidedly interesting novel that was put before' the public a few weeks ago. It is "a story of American life looking forward a century," by Henjauiin 1L Davenport The nuthor has drawn a most horrible picture of American life, especially farm life, after our "protective" turiil system has continued one hundred

years longer. He contltiues the concentration of wealth (which began with the introduction of "protection" in 1S"52 and had given us .',000 millionaires and multi-millionaires in läf.0 and millions of tramps, paupers and tenant farmers) until, in lWI, a very few persons own the whole country. Public schools were abolished long bofnre lii'H and but few farmers could

rend or write. States have disappeared,

eveeot that in some cases old state

lines mark the boundaries or districts helnnirhiy to single proprietors, as, for

example, one proprietor owns the "district of Ohio." The farmers live in

hovels and in greater poverty and more

miserable conditions than was ever tiio lot of the Irish peasantry. In all dis

tricts or states but Uhio the lanners have already signed "bonds of servitude" which makes them slaves to tho

nronrietors. and the Ohio farmers are

compelled to sign away their remaining freedom soon after the opening of the store. Hecause of the impoverish

the picture is overdrawn. Probably it
