The Pope is credited with the remark that if the Roman Catholic Church could be as highly respected in other countries as in the United, States he would be in favor of the separation of church and state everywhere. The church is respected here because communities gs the United States all began with a policy of religions freedom, ami have nevk- tolerated a state icburch. In the other countries, where the supremacy of one church was established by law, it is not easy to hold respect when the preference is withdrawn. One of the whimsical characters in a story by Miss Alice Brown conceived the idea of a “patent dog-barker,” which could ’ be put in the front yard by unprotected women to frighten tramps away by mechanical imitation of a dog. Paris has outdone this comic Idea in sober earnest. Some people try to escape the dog tax by concealing their animals. The police have secured the service, of professional barkers, who “make-a noise like a dog” outside suspected houses. The dog inside replies, and the barker reports to the tax-collector. Those who are sure that the soil of New England is hopelessly barren may be surprised to leafn some facts that are brought out in two recent bulletins of the Department of Agriculture. There were only eight States of the Union in 190 G that had a larger acreage planted to potatoes than Maine. Only four produced a larger crop. Not one even approached Maine- in the number of bushels to the acre. The average yield was two hundred and ten bushels to the acre, and no other State raised more than one hundred and seventy-five bushels. The average for the whole country was only one hundred and two. Nor was it an exceptional year, for the average crop of Maine has been the largest in every year since 1903. Buckwheat Is not a very important crop, but.it is raised in twenty-four of the States. In this, too, Maine stands at the head in average crop per acre; New Hampshire is second, Vermont third, »and Massachusetts fourth. Since 1900 the lowest average yield of buckwheat in Maine

j was twenty-eight bushels to the aero, i|n <OOO. The highest yield in those I seven years in any State outside of New England was twenty-two and a half bushels. “Fret not thy gizzard.” There was once a good old grandmother who gave this advice to everybody’. She declared, and firmly believed, that it came from the Bible, though she did uot know just where It could be found. But she insisted that it -was somewhere between the covers of the Good Book. The old. woman was right. It is in the Good Book, not only in one place, but in many, and though she did not have the exact language in which the advice is given, she had its sense, which is of vastly greater importance. The World Is full of men and women who are constantly fretting their gizzards, and with what result? Nene, except to increase the income of the doctor and the undertaker and to fill the hospitals for the insane, and the cemeteries. Ask any doctor what causes the majority of the mental breakdowns and the most of the cases of nervous troubles, and he will tell you it-is fretting.- Some people blame-work, but work never hurt anybody. On the contrary, it keeps men and womPn alive. Overwork, though, claims thousands, but overwork is altogether another thing: and the overworkers are generally, fretters. Each leads to the other. The human gizzard was not designed by nature to bear, the strain of fretting, and the man jvho frets it much is sure to break It The old woman’s advice does not mean •that man should refuse to take his work or anything else seriously. It does not mean that he should view with unconcern or treat lightly any of his prob lems. But it does mean that he should not fret over them when he has applied his best efforts to them. It means that if you have something to do, do it;. and with your whole energy. When you have done all you can do. don’t fret your gizzard over the result. All the fretting in the world will have no effect upon the outcome. Await it without stewing and worrying, and if it is against you, tackle it again. Fret your gizzard and you will lack the strength to renew the fight with the vigor that is necessary to win. It means you ara not to fret over things beyond your control. It does not mean that you should not view them In seriousness and with proper regard of importance and consequences. But don’t worry over them until you fret your gizzard. We are traveling at a fast race in this country. The spirit of the day is one that calls for speed. The man who can keep it up must look after his gizzard. Fret It not. w a ©KI It is very unfortunate that the retailer, speaking generally, does not appreciate the value of local advertising. It would seem as though .ambition should dictate the enlargement of one’s business, and to many merchants such a result is easily (attained. The way to do it is quite simple. . It Is well known that women are the best buyers and, as a rule, the goods they buy are the most profitable. To attract them your store must be magnetic—!. e., clean, neat, stocks well arranged and the goods appealing to them prominently displayed. Doing this is properly classed as advertising, but it must be backed by intelligent, well-informed and courteous clerks to make the sales. After having accomplished this inform then, by all means, contract for a regular space in your local papers and place your advertisement in advance. Arrange the copy for frequent changes, make the matter and makeup attractive, and be sure to refer to the seasonable goods at the proper time. If such a simple course is followed the result will be a pleasant surprise to any merchant who 1 has not been a believer in publicity. The good merchant realizes that he does not have to cut prices to make sales. There is an easier way to make business and keep profits, in these times. The rule is as simple as can be—advertise and support your announcements .with an attractive store and courteous treatment of customers.—Hardware. THE ORIGINAL SHEATH GOWN.

I The Tutor’s Wooing 1

For reasons best known to himself, Out which you shall learn later. Herbert Ford took a situation as holiday tutor to the son of Mr. 'Brackley, a substantial merchant, whose business was in the city and whose house was in Lancaster Gate. The two boys were aged 8 and 9, and they were the only offspring of Mr. Brackley’s second marriage. Refinement went out of ibis home when prosperity came in, at the date of that second marriage. * ■ Miss Mabel Brackley was now nearly 20, and far superior to the other inmates of the house, with whom, however, she lived on the most amiable term's. She felt, nevertheless, that she was not quite one of the family. Her stepmother had many relations, who were inclined to consider her an outsider, of little account, and who devoted their attention to her little h<lf brothers. She would not have been sorry to have a home which was really her own, and her father realized that it would be a good thing for her. - Therefore, while discouraging any attempts of poor young men to pay attention to the daughter of the substantial house, he was at the present moment encouraging the advances of a very rich young merchant who had looked on Mabel with a favorable eye. It was to. this household that Herbert Ford entered as tutor to the two boys. Frankly he bad admitted that up to the present his experience in teaching had not been great. He intended for himself a literary career, he stated, and tutored only as a temporary expedient, but bis public school and university education fully qualified him to undertake his task. Mr. Brackley had been much pleased with the young man at his first interview - with him, and his impression corresponded with that of Mrs. Brackley when she saw him. Mabel Brackley bad an impression t>f having seen him somew’here before, bjut not remembering where, and feeling she ’might have been mistaken, she said nothing about it. He, at any rate, did not seem to remember her,’ for his greeting, though extremely courteous, was that of a complete stranger. A few days later he asked for an interview with the father. “I come to ask you for your daughter’s hand,” he said simply. “What, sir—what do you mean?” “I want your daughter’s hand—of course, I mean the rest of her with it. I want her. I want to marry her. In- ■ deed, she has consented to marry me. But, as in duty .bound, I ask you for your permission.” “You are an outrageous scoundrel, sir,” was all Mr. Brackley could get out. He was pink with rage. The tutor’s manner was not calculated to make him less angry. “Come, sir, come,” said Ford testily, have I your permission to marry your daughter?” Brackley looked at him In Impotent rage. He wiped his forehead with a

large red handkerchief. At last he coU leefed hitpself sufiicijently to speak. “You steal into this house—the best house on Lancaster Gate—under the pretense of tutoring my boys, apd deliberately set yourself to take my daughter away.” ' “Precisely. Xbu have stated the case as shortly as I could, though you have guessed rather quickly. I stole into this with that deliberate intention. The tutoring was only a blind." Mr. Brackley gasped again. The man acknowledged it. seemed to ackowledge more than even he had charged him with. "I've a good mind*to send for the police,” he cried. •‘Unfortunately, what I have done is not ia criminal offense —not one recognized by the law, at least.” • “So you came here for that purpose? What do you mean by that?” “I came for ydur daughter, yes; most decidedly I came for her. And,” he added exultantly, “I have got her.” “You would take her away from a luxurious home; you have already i caused her to give up a most excellent! chance. And for what? That she mayj be a' typewriting drudge, and typewriter your wretched and, I have no doubt, wicked stories.” • “Well, if she likes, she may.” i “Yob think that I shall give her money. You are mistaken. She will! never have a penny from me.” -'‘That doesn’t matter.” “You say so. But you know I •ain! her father. You trust that I shall re-' pent.” “I hope so—for ydur sake.” “Now, Sir, I tell you that the girl is penniless, and that she will never—l

never you understand —have a penny of my money. If you have a spark pf honor left, a spark of true regard fbr her .happiness, you will give her up.” “I have her promise, and I shall keep her to it,” said Ford. “You talk bravely. I suppose you will tell me that you never cared‘about her money, that you love her for herself?” “It is sufficient for me that she loves me for myself,” said Ford, calmly. “At any rate, she doesn’t love me fpr my money.” . . “No, indeed,” sneered Brackley. “A man like you would never have got into a house like this save by a subterfuge. You and I don’t meet in the ordinary way.” “That is true,” admitted Ford, “and that is why I determined to become tutor here.” “And why,' sir, did yoj'i single iny daughter out for your designs?” “Well, you see, I had seen her in the distance, and fallen in love with her. I wanted to know her better. She is all I thought her, and if I gm not all she thinks me, at any rate I shall make her a good husband.” “Look here, sir,” fcaid Brackley, at the last gasp of exasperation, “if my girl marriqs you I swear I will never give her a penny, and I swear I will never speak to you again.” Ford looked at him steadily. “I hear what you say,” he said, “and I shall keep you to your word if you are inclined to break It?”

vous afliigez pas pour moi, mes bonnes aniies,” be replied. Wolfe was’wounded three times before he fell. A shot shattered bis wrist, and yet another struck hifti. Finally he was hji in the breast. He died murmuring, “Now God be praised, I will die in peace.” The result of the battle was not jthe conquest of Canada, but the uniop of the French and - British colonies.

“What do you mean?” bawled, Brackley. “I don't like you. Mr. Brackley. I j don’t like your house, and I don't like I your friends. I think your daughter will be well away from you. and in time I have hopes that I shall be able j to make, her forget you.” “Well! Am I mad, am I dreaiftng? ! Is this a joke?”7 . 1., "If it is. I don’t seethe point of it. I don't like ,von, Mr. Brackley, and I don’t want to see you; I don’t mind your sons. They can come and see me and their sister.” "You think I would allow my sous to see their sister’s degradation, her shame! Perhaps you think it is amusing to live in a workhouse?” - “I don't know. There may be worse places. If you hadn't been able to tide over some crises in the city, for instance, you might have been living in. .goal!” It was a hard hit and a true one. “Whatever I’ve done I for my children. At any race, I havfeh’t stolon into a house and persuaded a girl to go out of it and starve with me. If you think you can blackmail me, you are mistaken, If you take the girl," she starves—mind that—she starves !” "But why should she starve?” “Then what—what do you propose my daughter is to live/on? Though, mind you. if she marries you she is no longer daughter of mine?” "I do mind you. Well, she can live on me., 1 am a very rich man. Mr. Brackley?” "Rich —you?” said Brackley, thinking that the tutor was bluffing. “Very, very rich. One of the richest men in England. You see, I Came here as a tutor —like King Arthur, don't you know—just to see how the poor live.” “How the poor live! You needn’t insult me. sir! To steal my daughter and rob her of her inheritance is enough,” “You. are right, Brackley', ’you are, Tight,” said Ford, dropping into familiarity very unbecoming in a tutor, “and, I wasn't speaking the truth. I came here to see your daughter. Yours are not, as you mentioned yourself, the sort of people whom I am likely to meet. You must forgive my being vulgar enough to say So. But 1 had fallen in love at sight of her, and I thought if I made her acquaintance in the ordinary wa>, that if she didn’t fall in love with me, you would, and try to persuade her. I so wanted to be. loved for myself, and I was as little sure of that in my own world as in yours. I’m a nobleman.” “A nobleman !” —- - “Haven’t you heard of Lord Ascott? I see you have. Well, he is’the richest nobleman in Rutland, if npf the oldest in descent, and he was reported to have gone on a yachting expedition. Well, it wasn’t true. His yacht went, but he did not. He went on an expedition to Lancaster Gate.” “Lord Ascott! You !” “Yes, and I am so glad that in .marrying Mabel I shall not be marrying her family. I was a little afraid I should have to, and I was quite prepared to make the sacrifice. But you have made the way easy.” Brackley sank into a chair. The revelation had been too much for him. It was some minutes before he could speak. “Then I have the honor to tell you. Lord Ascott,” he said, gathering strength as he went on, “I have the honor to tell you that you have behaved like a cad. You. steal into a man’s house and get his daughter’s affections under the pretense that you are a penniless tutor. You take advantage of a father’s natural and proper anger at such ruin for his daughter to break with him and to cut him off from that daughter’s love. You may be a nobleman, by name, if not by nature, and you may be a rich man, but I don’t take back a word which I said to Ford the tutor—except, perhaps, what I said about our not being likely to meet.” “By Jove! you’ve got more spirit in you than I bargained for,” said Lord ' Ascott. “I am beginning to be sorry

for the first time that you swore you would never speak to your daughter again if she married me.” But at that moment Mabel burst into the room. “I can’t bear the suspense any longer,” she cried. “Has he told you. father? I see he has. You must forgive him and me.” She went and stood by the young man. taking his hand. “Your father lias sworn that If you marry me he will never speak to yott again.” “Father !”i She left her lover's baud, and went tjo her father. "You can't mean that. I love Mr. Ford. I don't mind trying to work for my living. But I do want to be happy. And I couldn’t be happy if yob ca-sti nil' off like that, and cast him, off too.” “So you would leave vout father for this man?" said Brackley. “I would leave you for him because he js to be my‘husband. Bitt" 1 love you, father, and if you do this dreadful thing you wil'kkuow that you are spoiling my life—and spoiling it just when 1 ought to be happy.” The two men looked at each other. "We mustn't spoil- her happiness,even to please ourselves," said the young man. “I expect you will have to break ybur oath. Brackley : and 1 shall have to.grin when you do- it. Shall we fill! on our knees and ask your lilessing?” But at that Mr. Brackley turned and left the room hurriedly. “He will forgive us, I’m sure he will," said Mabe], “I think so. darling: and we shall yet learn to like each other —he and I.” - S.a t urday J ourna 1. Facts about our trees. We I .se and Wante More Timber Per Capita Any Other Nation. A'd our standing timber is estimated to be somewhere bet ween -fourteen hundred and two thousand billion feet. If we use forty billion per annum we can run 35 to 50 years at the present rate provided we do not have ati,y waste. If we use one hundred billions per annum, in nine to thirteen years our timber will all be gone.-. We have now about one hundred and sixty-five million (acres in our national reserves. If we [had three times that much we should not have enough. 11l it costs 20 acres a 'Sunday or"-M) acres a week, or 2,080 acres a year to pript one daily newspaper, what does it dost in acreage to print all the newpapers in till the cities and towns of America? Add to this the enormous editions of our magazines. Add to this the paper used in books. The total staggers the imagination, and yet the amount of timber cut for pulp in the - United States annirally is, less than 5 peir cent of what is. cut- for lumber.' Last year we made more than 315,000,000 lead pencils. A lead pencil is not very largA but the total, number of lead pencils required 7,300,000 feet of cedftr. We have cedar enough to last us just twelve years. More than 100,000 acres, of timber, in the whole United States, are cut over every working day. We use many times mdjre,,timber per capita than any other nation. We have left not ov<*r -150,000,000 ’ acres bearing commercial timber.

A well known professoi' of architecture. commonly referred to as "Ham- 1 my” by his pupils, told a story illustrative of the remarkable j degree to which certain persons possess the sense of symmetry. It seems that there ! was once a Scotch gardener who had charge of a good sized English estate and under whose direction tlie formal garden at the rear had been laid out with absolute symmetry, even the two summer houses, one on each side of the garden, being identical in even the most minute detail. On one occasion the Englishman became angry at his son and locked him up in one of the summer houses. As soon as the Scotch gardener heard of this his sense of symmetry was so outraged that he immediately sent fpr his own son- and locked him up in the other summer house to preserve jhe balance. “Hammy” neglected to mention whether'both boys were dressed exactly alike, but it is to be presumed that-even this detail was attended to by the aesthetic Scotchman. —New York Times.

The extent to which the sea has encroached on the land is I evident, from the fact that the journey from the mainland of France to the . island by steamboat now takes tin hour. English technical journals quote with approval the recently aiMouncyd conolusioris of John H. Heck concerning the durability of mild steel in actual i service In machinery, ships, and so j forth. This is a question which is not i settled by the preliminary tests of strength. Mr. Heck shows that nearly all the failures of steel occur very early in its history. If a plate, or bar, of fnild steel lasts for a year in service, it may be trusted to last ,for many years. Th9 most injurious thing- is continual bending backward and forward, as hi what is called the “panting" of a boiler "end. As Ixmdon Eng|neeri .. pins it. steel has a. somewhat “tumultuous youth,” but “in middle age it is trustworthy, and in old age beyond reproach.” In regard to corrosion, there is idifference of opinion, some holding that steel corrodes more readily th. n iron!

( This Miirri»R'4‘ Cereinony Consists of ' yVasiiirtg- the Head. Marriage among the Hopi, a tribe of the Pueblo Indians, is an .institution regarding which thoge. most concerned have least to say. When the parents of a girl find it expedient for her tb get married, they look up an available man and negotiate with his L p.arents. ■ the matter has been arranged the principals' are notified, the girl goes to the home' of the bridegroom’s parents and grinds corn for them for three weeks, while the bridegroom makes a kind of sash for the bride. ' Then one morning at sunrise l they both bathe their heads ifi cold water, which completes the ceremony. There have been instances of the bridegroom refusing to go through the performance, says a writer in Outing. It has then proceeded without him and been accounted valid, and several weeks later he has yielded and had his head ’ bathed. The Navajo cereinony is. much more elaborate and impressive, but then the Navajo girls are much nicer. The regular tariff on a Navajo girl entering the port of matrimony for the first ’time is twelve horses. On the second occasion the. tax is nine horses, .while subsequent marriages are free. This is not purchase money, but is merely a tribute of respect to a moth-er-in-law and a token of appreciation of the care and expense involved in bearing and rearing the lady, a recognition not unworthy of consideration by civilized bridegrooms. On the other hand, and deserving of great coitdemnation, is that law of many tribes, unwritten but of much sanctity, that a man and bls mother-in-law never meet after the ceremony.
