"You know 1 can never be more than a sis- tcr to you. I have a great regard lor you, Percy, and Have at times almost loved you. But you arc so indolent, so lacking in spirit, that 1 can never be your wife. Our temperaments are so dillerent. Let, us remain friends, thou, and never recur to this topic again. If you do, 1 shall excuse myself when you call. Now, what 1 wished to sec you about is one of our new neighbors." 1 had known Sylvia from boyhood. In the suburbs, where we lived, life was as quiet as in a country village. , Living alone with an old housekeeper, my books and collections, I depended entirely upon Sylvia for woman's society. ' But I had failed to win her love. Her people thought a great d'eal of me���7)11 fact, had always treated ' me as a son, and J was positive that my cntrance,.into the family would have been hailed with satisfaction; Hut I was a booky, indolent young man,-with no desires for a strenuous life, and" Sylvia was very strenuous. I believed even as I sat there disconsolate in their little drawing-room that 'should T join,a fire brigade, put up for Parliament, or be arrested for scorching in my motor-car, the coals of lovo .would burst into flame. .But I simply could not do those things, and so Sylvia remained a, sister to me. One point was in my favor. I had the entree to Sylvia's home at all times, and thus far no rival hod prc- , scnted himself. My only hope was to tire her out. Although placed above the need of earning my own living, 1 was not weak, merely loo indolent to make an ellort. "Your neighbor''" I prompted. "Yes, -our new neighbor. He's a burglar, you know," she explained, wjlh much animation. , "Don't you find that inconvenient?" I suggested, trying to conceal my amazement. . ' "Oh] no! What's more, he is going to call on us," she replied. "Do you tell me this.to make me jealous? I demanded. "Don't be a goose, Percy! ' I want you to, know him and have him call on you. I told his wife that ] would get your consent to have . him call Rome- night when j<ou were out, when it wouldn't annoy you," she continued. "To commit burglary in my house?" T gasped. she nodded her sweet the fact that we are innocent," ,1 cautioned, for I did not-like the idea of Sylvia' mixing up in such schemes. "It's purely a family affair," she said. "Besides, he hardly ever takes anything of value." I ventured to doubt a little; but this offended, her, and I hastened to beg her pardbn. Somehow I was always begging her pardon. Then I went home, and secreted' several rare' vases,.and retired with the side door unlocked. He did not visit me that night, however. He went to Randall's, and carried off somo of the coal, and' took Penderby's milk: I heard Penderby swearing softly as he caught the Citv train the next morning. " " . II. Personally, there was nothing in Mr. Timbs, our burglar, to excite antipathy. He Was a short, fat, placid-faced old gentleman, with a fringe of silver hair and the most innocent blue'eyes imaginable. On two'different mornings 1 saw his wife cheerfully returning the fruits of ljis night's work, and learned later that she had insisted on paying for the coal and milk. Then he came to me. I was awakened by a loud,noise dowastairs, and gained the first floor just in time to see liim tugging away at a saddlebag chair. "Let me carry your basket and lantern and give you a lift," 1 offered politely. ;IIe smiled cheerily, and patiently waited till I slipped on some clothes., "Won't you come back?'.' 1 invited, when we had got the chair over to his house. ' "T can't' to-night," he said sorrowfully. "I've got to go to Randall's and get a bicycle, and I've haii-prom- ised to''Call for Penderby's baby tonight. So, you see, 1 have my hands full."- Then he added lretfully: "So much to do, and so'little time to do it in. I ought "to havo an assistant. If my wife wasn't"so economical T'd have one. Busiest time of the year for me, and no one to aid me." I left him, after expressing my regrets, but took care to go after the chair in the morning. Mrs. Timbs thanked me for my forethought.' She had just carried over a small sack of coal to Sylvia's home. "But he's getting better fast, she declared enthusiastically. "I can remember when I had to carry things back on the sly, or it would break his heart." ' . "If it would soothe him at all to keep the chair ", I began." "Oh, no! In the morning he doesn't remember anything about ,it. Ho would knoW it wasn't his -property, and would worry as to how to Randall's house. Randall was a jeweller. His losses he estimated at about ��1,000. Pondcrby was minus a gold watch and ��100 in money. "I should say he wan cured," grinned Randall sardonically, after he had rushed to the, police. J found Sylvia in tears, but could not stop" to comfort her, for her father and I had determined to try to find clues. A milkman told us that he had met a silver-haired couple driving a foaming horse towards Row- berry, an adjoining town., We got a horse and trap and gave chase. Just two miles this side of Bowberry we sighted our quarry. Timbs was in the middle of the road, frantically tugging at the harness. As we drove up lie sprang into his carriage and whipped up the horse. But the harness broke,again, and before he could repair it we wero upon him, I grappled with him, and found to my surprise that he had muscles hard as steel. Back ,and forth wc swayed," while Sylvia's father held Mrs. Timbs. I really believe my man would have beaten mo if ;he had not tried to reach his side-pocket. When' ho did that he loosened his grip on my throat, and I threw him. After some farm laborers Had come to our assistance we discovered that his pocket contained an ugly-looking revolver. On returning home we met some of the police. ;'Calls himself Timbs���eh? Why, this is Tommy Rogers! There's a reward of ��50 for his capture. Better call and get it." * "And his wife?" sobbed Sylvia. vSho is worse than he is, impossible," declared the officer. "Sylvia," 1 suggested meekly, onco wo wore alone .and I had satisfied her that I was uninjured, "don't you think I've been strenuous eno.ugh to win you?" , 1 "Yes, dear," she whispered.���London Answers. , 4- THCEY WILL ' ALWAYS DEPEND UPON THE MONSOON.

"No; he may feel grieved, and rap on the doors ancl ask for tho keys. Then wo tell him wo can't lind them in the dark. ��� Oh, it's such fun! You see, wo novcr know when we get up what wo will find missing. The other morning ho cleared out the kitchen and pantry, and papa had to get his breakfast in town. And, would you believe it, Mrs. Timbs wanted to pay for the breakfast?" "She certainly is a generous woman, and has a great* deal to worry her," I assured hor. But after this conversation I kept tho upper part of the House locked. Then passed .a lucky week with no visits. Il, was a great relief, as it spared mc from calling on Mrs: Timbs every morning to cart back" my belongings.

"I remember it was on a Friday morning when I was arour.ed from a deep sleep by someone hammering on my front door. I looked out of the window, and, to my great astonishment, behold Sylvia's father. "No ono ill, is there?" I cried. "T am," he said hoarsely. "I am sick at heart for being an idiot.

I hurried into the houso, and on beholding the saddle-bag chair was about .to answer in the negative, when I thought of my collections. On open she he . One of the ' chief features of the Japanese method of putting on flesh is to sleep outdoors with as little clothing as possible. The advocates of this doctrine believe that the loss covering the body 'has the more it will seek to protect itself by the growing of fat. In Japan there is a saying that' any fat man can become lean, and any. lean man fat, if ho really wants such a change of figure . Besides * sleeping 'as lightly garmented as possible, the Japanese searcher for llesh sleeps a great deal. Ten, twelve and even,fourteen hours are none too much for him. In his waking hours he is to be kept amused. Anxieties and thoughts of a serious nature are to be banished by the lively use of repartee and banter. For example, when he sits down to breakfast he should . never take up the morning paper to digest along with his meal. - Instead, his wife should relate the latest joke she has heard, and* in the. place of* asking him for money to buy some yards of this or ' that fabric, she should explain how she has hecn able to run the house under her allowance. When the lean exploiter for fatness takes exercise, ho* should practice a discreet moderation. Jlo should not exert himself too strenuously. Should he go walking, he should not run across stiects nnd.dodgo cars and express waggons. If the crossing, is too congested, he should bide his time and try a more unruffled fording place. When . the fat man wants to become lean according to Japanese principles, he should not entirely reverse the plan of getting fat, for he. too, should sleep as much as possible on top of ' his blankets. Even in rigorous weather, he should try to make himself think ho is warm, though it might test the faith of a Christian scientist to do so. Cold is believed to quicken the circulation, and thus carry off tho waste more readily., -But the , fat man should sleep as little as possible. If ho can cut his hours of sleep from eight to six, or even five, ho should make such a curtailment. When ho exercises he should exert all tho vigor he possesses. 'Should his wife desire to help him shrink, she should present him with' bills, or announce occasionally that sho expected a visit from her mother. The fat man should noUfnst. The stomach should be kept at > work, also, but with u slowly diminishing amount of food each day. Oily foods should be abandoned by the fat mini wanting to shrink, just 11s (hey should be eaten in abundance by the man who wants more nvo'r- dupoi.". It follows, therefore, according -to these methods, oitl.or in Japan or America, ihc lean man trying to get fnt has a decided advantage over his fat rival who wants to get loan'. If the methods they adop.t prove successful, the loan man has certainly the easier victory. > He has been taking life calmly;, enjoying his bed and board, and laughing at the jokes of his friends. , The fat. man, on- the, contrary, has boon toiling away as ho never toiled beforo, has fretted over new anxieties, has been routed out of bed'when his slumber was deepest and most blissful, '��� and has hurried along the street as if running to a fire, when' his destination might have lieon the.tax office. On tho other' hand, if such methods fail, the fat. -man has had all his "111 rr.V'and-worry- and loss of sleep . Famine is chronic in India. It has occurred at intervals for centuries past, as long as man remembers, as long as records have been kept, and undoubtedly will recur for centuries to come, 1 although the authorities who arc responsible for the well-being of the empire are gradually organizing .to counteract the* forces of nature which they cannot control���by increasing the food supply and providing for its distribution. . But there must be hunger and starvation in India'so long as the population re-" mains as dense as it is. The reason is not because the-earth refuses to support so many people, writes,a correspondent. ' There is yet .a vast area of fertile land untitled, and the fields already cultivated would furnish food enough for 'a larger population -when normal conditions prevail. There is always enough somewhere in India for everybody in times of sorest-distress, but it is not distributed equally, .and thoso who arc short h'uvc no money to buy from those who have a' surplus. The export of gram , and oilier products from India' continues regularly in the lean as well'as tho fat years,��� but tho country is so large, the distances aro so great, so inadequate that ono province may',be ox- porting food to Rurope because it has to spare, while another province may' be receiving ships loaded with charity ��� from' America because its crops have failed and , r ITS PEOl'LE AR 10-HUNGRY. The health and'happiness of 300,- 000,000 human souls in India and that of their cattle, their oxen, their sheep, their donkeys, their camels, and their elephants arc dependent np- and on certain' natural phenomena over which neither rajah nor maharaja, nor viceroy, nor emperor, nor council of state has control, and beforo which oven the great mogul on his bejewelled throne stood powerless. It is possible to ameliorate tljc , consequences, lmt it is not possible to prevent them. , Whether the crops shall 1 be fat' or loan, whether the people and the cattle shall be well fed or hungry, depends upon tho "monsoons," as they arc called,- the alternation of wind currents, which bring rain in its season.- All animal and vegetable life is dependent upon them.. In the early summer tho broad plains are baked by the "sun to a temperature higher than that of. the water of the great seas which surround them. In parts of northern India, around Delhi and. Agra, the, temperature in May and June is higher than in any other part of the empire, and is probably exceeded in no other part of the world. This phenomenon remains unexplained. The elevation is about 2.100 feet above the sea, tho atmosphere is dry and the soil is sandy. But for some reason tho rays of the sun are intensely hot and are fatal to thoso who are ox- posed to them without sufficient protection. But this extreme heat is the salvation of the country, and by- its own action brines the relief without which all animal and \egolable life would perish. It draws from the ocean a current of wind laden with moisture which blows steadily for two months toward the northwest and causes what is called TIIR RAJ NY SEASON. ' The quantity of lain that falls depends upon the configuration of the land. Any cause which cools tho winds from the sea and leads to the condensation of the vapor .they carry; any obstacle which blocks their course causes precipitation. Through all the northern part of India there is a heavy rainfall during Ai-ril, May and June, the earth is refreshed and quantities" of water are drained into reservoirs called "tanks," from which the'fields are irrigated later in the summer. ' Over 80 per cent of tiie population are engaged in farming. They live from hand to mouth. They havo no reserve whatever, and if the monsoon fails them, nothing will growY and they havo no money to import food for themselves and their cattle from more fortuoato sections. As a rule, the monsoons arc vuvy reliable, but every few years they fail, and a famine results. The government, has a meteorologicnl department, with observers stationed at several points in Africa and Arabia, and in the islands of the sen, to record ancl report the actions of nature. Thus it has been able of late years, to anticipate the fat and lean harvests. It is possible to know almost precisely several months in advance whether there will bo a failure of crops, and a permanent famine commission has been organized to prepare measures of relief before they ore needed. In other words, Lord.Onry.on and his subordinates arc reducing famine relief to a system which promotes economy as well ns efficiency. ���THE WORST FAMINE A- bury them. The ��� empire has been stricken almost as hard during , the last ten years. The development of civilization 'seems to make a little difference, for the famine of 1900- 1901 was-perhaps second in severity to that of 3 770. ��� This, however, was largely due to the fact that the population had not had time to recover from the famine,, of 1896-97, 'which was almost 'as severe. And although everything'possible was done'to,1 relieve distress and prevent''the , spread of plagues and'pestilence that , are the natural and unavoidable consequences' of , insufficient nourishment, even now people are -dying by thousands every week. Tho loss of human.life by starvation in British India alono during1 the famine of 3900-1901 is estimated at 1,230,855, and this is declared to be the minimum. In a country of the area of India, inhabited by a superstitious, secretive and ignorant population, it is impossible to-com-- pel the natives * to report accidents and deaths, particularly among the' Brahmins, who burn instead of. bury their dead. Those who know best assert that at least 15 per cent! of the deaths are not reported in times of --FAMINES AND EJPIDEMTCS.' And the enormous estimate 1 havo given does , not include any of the native-states, which have one-third of the area and one-fourth of the population of tlie> empire. In some of thorn sanitary regulations arc observed, and statistics aro accurately reported. . In others no attempt is made to keep a registry of deaths, and- there are no means of ascertaining > the mortality,,' particularly in'-*, times of excitement. ' In these little principalities tho peasants havo, comparatively speaking, no,medical 'attendance; they are dependent, upon ignorant medicine men and sourccrcrs, and they d'ie oil like flics, without even leaving a record of their disappearance.

The problem of soil management is a complicated one for a variety of reasons, among which may bo' mentioned. ] We possess little fundamental knowledge concerning the soil, there has not been a time in 50 years when wo knew so littlo as at present 2. The character of our soils vanes -.gicatly. and soil types have not been sufficiently , coi rein led to make it possible to pi edict that results obtained m one place will apply to another When the soils havo been surveyed, mapped and classified into .say (en main tvpes. it will then lie possible to carry on held experiments on each of the 'ten typos and state with some degree of defi- ruteness the conditions best .stilled to each, writes Tlios 1'" Hunt. fcioil Is only a rmvins to nn end The fawner doos not want Lo produce soil-4.

It can easily bo proven statistically that tho fanner is not living up to-his opportunity in either of these directions This doos< not necessarily menu that moie land should be plowed annually than at present- Probably a good deal of land that Is now plowed occasionally would bo better off if not plowed at all. but kept in permanent paniuro, or allowed ' to grow up to Umber.

The bird most easily to bo attracted into our garden and shrubberies is the lively titmouse, all the varieties of'which, with two exceptions���the longtail arrd crested��� will gladly avail themselves of an artificial nesting-place. Boxes should bo constructed about twelve inches in length and four inches broad, with a lid that ma* bo oasily lifted. At ono end a small hole must be cut for tho in- gross and egress of the tenant. It is as well not to cut the hole too largo if your object be to induce tho' tits to take tip their abode in Hicsa boxes rathoi',' than tho ubiquitous sparrow.

Mrs. Candace Wheeler, well known as a promoter, of women's industries and for her articles "on and designs for home decoration, has; written . a book on "How "to Mak'e Rugs" in which she "suggests that the weaving of rag rugs might solve the problem of how to earn an independent income for some women in farm homes. Just .at present, rag rugs are quite "the proper thing" for tho floors, of country/and seaside cottages for piazzas, for bedrooms, and bathrooms, and for general use. They have been found to be durable, suitablo and economical for such purposes, and havo been seen on sale at the ware- rooms of one of the largest decorating firms in this city. The rugs arc woven out of new rags, in two-yard lengths, with bonier and fringo at each end, and aro not only useful but salable. Rag carpets have been made for many yonrs antf almost every coiin- try neighborhood has even got its "weaver"���who ,is usually overcrowded with work, and has no - timcf for rug-weaving. It would be pos- srble to sot up a now- industry without infringing upon tho established one.' 'Few old looms still exist, un- fortunately, the cr.a or cheat) jute and ingrain carpets brought most of them to the wood-pile, and the''secret of the only .difficult part of weaving, the warping, or placing the warp in tho loom,, died with the women who years ago, wrought' upon thcm;f There arc still looms to ' bo purchased, however j and' where an old loom still stands the secret of warping "may be learned from the nearest weaver < t* �� THE FIRST NECESSITY, after the loom, is , the carpet warp,' which can ,,bo bought at any country store���a met whrch shows the prevalence of homo weaving. trrhe warp, can be bought in white'or colors, tho latter* being not always reliable. One of the chief recommendations of these rugs is that they are washable, therefore the'colors must be fast and not fade or "run." Mrs.'Wheeler, recommends the coloring -,of ,worp,.ond rags at home,-. :by the old-fashioned 'process, which produced' fast* colors. , Sonic, of the -aniline dyes''fade," "and. rugs that 7 rade wouItt-TSoon "bring- (llscreai & ,Qfl_i_tho entire tindustry. ,��;* A1-*faded'warp(-is, .especially dctrimcntalito the good looks of"a. rug." A01 good indigo blue will neither runVnor..fade,-and' a numbe^ of shades can'be produced with ind'-; go. cMrs". Wheeler ;f.says that 'orange and a very deep rod' are the only two colors in warp that she' has* found reasonably' fast, and the orange "runs" *so badly that it must . be steeped in warm water before using; and she adds' that she has used the water in which it has been'steeped to dye cotton rags, which tako a good lemon yellow ,from it. Orange - red, and the crimson rod known as cardinal, she excepts from the usual commercial dyes. By dipping ' orange warp in indigo blue a fas��,, bright green.can be secured, and this " with the colors mentioned, give a choice of five colors���green, blue, orange, red and white. Ruga intended for-salcmust be made of new rags, vand" here the qjiestion of economy must-be considered. The waste from cotton -mills canJ be bought for from ten to twelve cents per pound, and consists for the. most part of piece ends,���the imperfect -beginnings and cncimgs that must be torn off when tho piece is made up This makes ail ideal MATERIAL FOR WEAVING. Cotton bought by the yard-is more expensive, and it would bo necessary to figuie out the cost and see whether rugs.could be made-at a profit by using it. To many it would seem, a crime to buy now goods to tear up into carpet rags. Bought by the piece, the goods would come cheaper. The old fashioned way of sowing carpet rags will not answer in this new departure. .The filling must be smooth, without lumps or ends. If tho pieces arc large enough the edges may* be lapped and sewed on the machine; tho lap should be from a quarter to half an inch, and be sewed twice. The cloth can then be torn the seams being cut with the scissors; tho woik is'expeditiously done, and a smooth finish secured. Tho rags should bo torn instead of cut, wherever possible, as uniform width is thus secured. In ordinary cotton cloth an inch is recommended as the most suitable width. A pound and a half of cotton rags will make a yard of yard-wide weaving. The simplest weaving, says Mrs. Wheeler, is "warp of indigo blue and white filling. There must be an allowance of five inches of warp for fringe beforo the weaving is begun, and ten inches between the first and second rugs, to make the fringe for each The rug should measure three feet by six, without the fringe. The latter is to bo knotted, six threads to a knot. Such a rug can be as easily washed as a counterpane, or may bo thrown on the grass during, a heavy shower and be thus washed. Variations on this are easily made. One way is to.use half a pound ^of blue rags to tho two and a half required to make up the three pounds, of /miu" required for a six foot rug. This blue material must be distributed through the rug evenly, and a good way is to divide each color into three portions so there is an equal share of tho blue in each third of the rug. A BORDER AT EACH END. may' be made by weaving in from eight to. ten or even more threads of blue or any desired color, and scattering the rest "haphazard" in short lengths through the body of the rug. Dark and light blue rugs' on a' white warp make an effective <rug, and where much blue denim is worn the^materi- al is easily secured. In any except a blue rug a. stripe of red in the border is effective. A red warp with a white filling will mako o pink rug; if begun and finished with a half inch weaving of the red, used for Warp, with the red fringe a pretty border is provided for. The rule is a light warp with dark filling, and dark warp with light or white filling. Larger'rugs can be maae by sewing breadths together and addrng a border. " Mrs. Wheeler advocates the buying of cheap, coarse muslins and calicoes which can be bought at from four to five cents a yard. From eight to ten yards, according to fineness, will make a yard of weaving. Very cheap unbleached cotton, that1 approaching the riuality called cheesecloth, dyes wolf and makes a light, strong, clastic rug. i A well mado rag rug will sell fo'f $2; 1/ prettily made in colors, from *2.50 to $3.50. - Some on which' extra work'' is expended and which are artistfc'in color, will bring $<t to $6.' The average to be reckoned is-about Mrs Wheeler^ says- that her most successful rag rug is a cardinal red woven on white warp. ,' It' was made of white rags treated with cardinal red diamond dye, and was purposely made' v uneven���that is, pains were taken "to let the rags shade in color from dark to light. The border consists of two four-inch stripes of "hit er miss" green, white and red rags, placed four inches from"'eithcr end, with an inch stripe of red between," the ends finished with'a white knotted fringe. - ' ' CHOICE RECIPES. , ^ Ginger Snaps���Mix one-half pound of butter, with one and one-half cups sugar,- add one" and a half teaspoon- fuls-- of baking, soda dissolved in hot water, three eggs, season with ground ginger, and add one cuji of flour.

HINTS TO HOUSEKEEPERS. To remove the white spots from zinc-lined sinks, or from stove yincs, rub with a cloth wet with kerosene, says a correspondent of tho Practical Farmer. A cooking school teacher cautions her pupils against stirring oatmeal while it is cooking, as doing so makes it pasty. Oatmeal, to bo at best estate, ought to be cooked slow- Jy, three or four hours. The always at hand sulphur match is the most convenient thing for removing ink stains from the fingers. Moisten the sulphur end with cold water and rub the stain until it disappears. Bake apples for breakfast. Bake them the day before, if you haven't time to do it before the meal, and if the family prefer them warm, just set them in the warmer.. Serve with nice sweet cream and you have a healthful, appetizing dish, which tends to reduce the quantity of meat eaten. After one is 30, the tendency of the average individual is to eat more meat than is good for him. The baked apples supply the" digestive tract with fruit acids, which aid digestion and supply mineral salts also. Not always baked apples, but fried apples and apple saucc^���apple sauce cooked, slowly for somo time till rich and jelly-like. A CRISIS IN WOMAN'S'LIFE.
