For all that she seemed to enjoy a drive in the old-fashioned phaeton, and the first wild daisies that Ned walked miles to discover.

Mr. Dyspeptic, would you not like to feel that yoftr stomach troubles were over, that you could eat any kind of food you desired without injury ? That may seem so unlikely to you that you do not even hope for an ending of your trouble, but permit to assure you that it is not altogether im- . possible. If others can be cured permanently, and thousands have been, why not you? John R. Barker, of Battle Creek, Mich., is one of them. He says, "I was troubled with heartburn, indigestion and liver complaint until I used Chamberlain’s Tablets, then my trouble was over. Sold by all dealers.—Adv. *

“A mighty slick young fellow,” was what most people said of Joel Qulnby. “A steady-going plodder,” was the way Ned Travers was designated. Both were in love with Constance Farrar, beauty and belle. Naturally Joel attracted her with his brilliant, dashing ways. When Constance seriously reflected, however, her thoughts mostly favored Ned. Both young men had a future to make, and both ‘started in with the big wholesale house of Brown & Co. on ,an equal footing and with even chances.

Los Angeles, Cal. —Two men were slain and a third dangerously wounded in a gun and knife fight caused by a love song and a guitar at Montebello.

There was a great long table and this was soon piled man high with the boxes. As Ned got down from the ladder, his task accomplished, he was amazed to see Joel jump up on the table and fling himself into the midst of the heap. He pawed over the boxes, he rolled, he struck out with his fists, he jumped about 'the pile until it presented a great mass of wreckage. “There!” he cried exultantly, “that will do.”

Fanned into a frenzy by the melodious strains of a Mexican love ditty, sung and picked on a two-stringed guitar by Manuel Arroyo, his rival for the hand of a pretty senorita of Montebello, Robert Martinez first shot the fingers from the hand at the

Joel was in the buying, and Ned in th< selling department. The house had a large clientele. With Ned the effort was to buy as cheaply as possible, with Joel to sell at the best profit he could get. The latter had the instincts of a natural trader and forged ahead rapidly. He began to sport loud clothes, diamonds, and assumed an independent, swaggering manner that did not win friends among his associates.

“For what?” uttered the bewildered Ned.

“Why, there’s nine hundred gross of imported Swiss dress trimmings in that heap of boxes. The season is past and they’re dead stuff. I’m going to put them out as a damaged job lot, sell ’em off and get rid of the truck.” “Do you think that is wise?” interrogated Ned. “Why not?” challenged Joel, bristling a trifle at a criticism on his judgment. “Well,” responded Ned "of course you know all about the selling end of the business here, but at the buying end my point of view is different. I have noticed in our foreign correspondence that the head of the firm, who is in Germany, has written that there is a hint of war, in which case prices would go up and shipments become difficult. He has sent on a lot of invoices, showing extensive purchases, as if in anticipation of a dearth—” “Nonsense!”' derided the self-con-ceited Joel. “You don’t suppose little Switzerland is going to war, do you? Say, I never make a mistake. I’ll rid the house of that junk heap and make a good profit on it.” Which shrewd-selling Joel did. Then came the news of war and close on the heels of the announcement the head of the firm returned. Two days later the amazing news went the rounds of the establishment that Joel had “resigned.” Later Ned got wind of a storm.

One day Ned had an insight into the character of Joel that affected him gravely. Joel invited him to visit his club. It was all new to Ned, who noticed that Joel made himself conspicuous. Some men were playing cards at a table, when Joel sauntered towards them.

“I say,” he observed in his bold, obtrusive way, “speaking of cards, I’ve run across a queer thing. Friend of mine developed sort of occult power. Told me any time, any place, he would be able to tell what any selected card in the deck would be, even if he was ten miles away.” “What’s the trick, Quinby?” questioned one of the men.

“No trick at all—straight clairvoyance,” insisted Joel. ‘T’ve enough faith in it to bet $100 to $50 that you can select a card, show it only to the five of us here, then send a friend to

strings, then crushed Arroyo’s head with the gun butt, and turned to go. As Martinez reached file door he was confronted by Victor Arroyo, brother of the dead man, and Juan Zuingo, a friend. Martinez grappled with Zulngo and beat him on the head with the gun butt. Victor Arroyo was begging his brother to speak to him. Martinez floored Zuingo and started for the door. Zuingo pulled his revolver and shot Martinez, killing him Instantly. Half an hour later Deputy Sheriffs Fox, Nolan, Reeder and Modle were at the scene of the fierce battle, near the Simons brick yard. Victor Arroyo had disappeared in the meantime, and none of the Mexican residents was able to give the officers valuable information. The deputies later learned through friends of the dead men that each was desperately in love with a black-eyed girl, daughter of a Mexican ranchman, living near by. According to Deputy Sheriff Pox, Martinez, who bunked a few feet from the Arroyo house, heard Arroyo singing his love song to his sweetheart. Insane from jealousy and strong drink, he quietly crept from his bunk to the window of Arroyo’s bunkhouse and shot the fingers from his right hand. Then he rushed into the house and battered him to death.

It appeared that, knowing of the surplus Swiss stock on hand, the head of the firm had not ordered any new material. The war had closed all imports. There was little of that especial brand of goods in the country and prices had advanced four hundred per cent. Joel had lost to the house possible profits of over ten thousand dollars. Immediately upon the announcement of war, Ned had sat up nights preparing a clear schedule of the lines of merchandise that would be affected. He was called into the private office of his chief later, to receive the warmest commendation and a substantial raise in salary. ‘‘Stabii.ty and usefulness versus plunging and trickery,” was the remark the chief made in an allusion to the precocious Joel. On the strength of the raise Ned proposed to Constance.

Roseland, N. J. —For the second time within a year Austin Philhower and his family are homeless as a result of a fire, and for the second time Philhower rescued his two youngest children from death. After wrapping them in bedding, he took one in each arm and dropped from a window on January 6 last.

Diplomatic Honors.

Diplomatic agents are in three classes: First, ambassadors, legates, and nuncios; second, envoys and ministers; third, charges d’affaires. An ambassador is thus the highest diplomatic official sent from one country to another, and a minister is an agent of the next lowest rank. The ambassador represents not only the state from which he is sent, but the person of his sovereign, and is entitled'to ask an audience at any time, to rank next the blood royal, and to be held exempt, with his household, from local jurisdiction. “Envoy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary” is the full title of the diplomatic agent of the second class, who represents only the state, and not the person of the ruler. Charges d’affaires are lesser representatives, and must deal with the ministers of foreign affairs of the country to which they are sent. The embassy is the headquarters of the ambassador, the legation that of the minister.

“Hey, Jenks,” he called to the club manager, "go to the phone, will you? Now then —what’s your friend’s address?” he asked of Joel.

Sparks from the kitchen fire are supposed to have started the fire. A woman driving past saw the fire and alarmed the family. Mrs. Philhower took the two older children and her husband got the others. Mrs. Philhower, clad only in a night gown, jumped on a horse without waiting for saddle and rode into the village, two miles away, although the temperature was below zero. Finding the rim of a locomotive wheel, she beat a tattoo. Firemen responded, but the house was in ruins when they got to it.

There were exclamations of surprise, suspicious guesses, theories. No one, however, could tell how the thing was done. Blandly Joel pocketed his winnings. He chuckled audibly as he and Ned got out on the street.

Wild Animals in Captivity.

After they are captured, wild animals nearly all suffer from melancholia, and, strangely enough, the gorilla is more sensitive than most. One of these animals proved so sociable when caught that he played with the native boys. Directly he was shipped for Stellingen, however, he began to pine. Civilization frightened him. When he found that people stared at him, he would shut his eyes and cover his head with a blanket. He was turned loose with two natives in the woods where there was nobody to worry him, but he refused to eat and drink and became almost a skeleton.
