Honsberger, of Grand Forks, and A. T. Davis, of Mirror Lake, before a large gathering of fruit growers and business men of the Nelson district in the board of trade rooms, says the Nelson Daily News. It was finally decided by tbe gathering that a committee of six should be appointed.to go fully into the proposals and report to the annual general meeting nf the Kootenay Fruit Growers' union to beheld here on Tuesday next, * '..**, Mr. Honsberger, one of the best known and largest growers in the Kootenay-Boundary district, ad dressed the meeting on the proposals outlined. He is the father ol the system of eo operation for fruit growers whicb is being presented to growers of the various fruit growing centres of tbe district. He opened by dealing with the great advantage which he claimed for his method. These were many, and he dealt with each. There should^oe" no graft, nor should there be any great profit to any one man, but tbe system shouli be one of co-operation, and th money earned should be put into such concerns as jam factories, cunning factories, and other' facilities, which would be a profitable way of disposing of tbe inferior grades of fruit. He advocated uniform methods and grades in packing, and said he was sure Ilmt a market could always be obtained for the good quality of fruit. Financial failure was impossible under his system, he stated, and he went on to deal with the operating principles of the system. There would bea head otiice,an assembling house, a packing house and sales office, in which igmblishments euonn my could be practiced, and the fruit handled with the least possible expense. He explained the various hand- li.igs which would ba requi.til for tl • fruit in passing from the grower to the cinsiiiiisr, and showed-the e-.inomical point' of his system. By bundling the fruit with this larger scope, he pointed out, the cheaper materials und lower murlM- ilig costs to the growers would result, which also was a great factor Indipendent canning and jam factories and the like should be eliminated, and the by products used by their own factories. "By giving our fruit lo the present association we are so much out of pocket," he staled, "until the fi nit is marketed, whereas under my-sys- tern your money is guaranteed." Mr. Beeston.who was in the chair, then spake on the necessity of cooperation. "Without tt," he suid,* "we can not make a success of the business." A general discussion of Mr. Honeberger's proposals then took place, in which many questions were asked. Several growers from up the 1 tke points were present at the meeling, und showed considerable interest and took an active part in the questioning of Mr. Honsberger on his co-operative plan.

YOUNG VIOLINIST TO MAKE LON- DON DEBUT Pale of Twenty Year* Acclaimed by Critics aa Marvelous Player Daniel MelBa, an exceedingly clever 710-i.ig violinist, who ls acclaimed by competent critics as possessing supreme talent, haa arrived in London, and will make his appearance at Stein- W-y Hall. There Is nothing of the conventional luislcal genius about Melsa. He looks older than bis years, which are not yet 20, but that Is' usual with hia race. His black hair is close Cropped, hli eyes have a rather dream* expression, but he Is Interested ln everything and quite devoid of affectation. Of a singularly modest demeanor, he does not care to talk about himself and career, though he Is full of gratitude toward those who huve befriended Kim. Ills early life was singularly sad and overshadowed by a great tragedy. Horn at Warsaw ln mil, Metsas parents removed to Lodt three years later. The boy, when quite small, bad a passion for-music, and his lather bought him a violin, on which Ste taught himself to play melodies. He had no lessons until he was about 7 years of age, when a professor of Lodz happened to hear him play, and was so astonished at the talent he displayed that he advised his father to have tlie boy educated, and prophesied a great future for him. After receiving Instruction from minor musicians, the boy, at the age of 9, entered the conservatorlum of Professor Grudzlnskl, where he remained two years. Misfortune came ln June 1905. One afternoon Melsa's father, accompanied by his little daughter, went out Into tbe streets and never returned. This was the time m tne Jewish massacres, and It was only after a week's search that the child's bod; was found riddled with bullets, ln a deserted cemetery . Of the father no trace remained. During this awful period the boy nnd his mother were in Imminent danger, but the Cossacks took pity on young Melsa, whom they remembered as having often delighted them with his violin playing, and thus his lite and his mother's were spared. When the last echoes of the Pogrom had died away sympathizing frlencjs enabled tbo boy and his mother to go to Berlin, wbere hie rare gifts soon won blm a free course at the Kllnd worth-Scharwenka Conservatorlum. The lad studied bard, and with sueh success, that in 1909, when but 16, he caused something of a sensation by winning the prise violin at a com- -petition. Mrs. Hill, wife of the American ambassador In Berlin, took a great interest In the boy, and It was chiefly through her influence thst a fund was raised, to whicb many wealthy Germans and Americans contributed, to present Melsa with a violin and to place ♦he family beyond want. A Berg- on/.l of 1727 was bought at a cost ol ,. f 62.50, and Is now the cherished, possession ot the youthful virtuoso. He received further lessons from the well- known master, Prof. Karl Flesch, and oa December 7 last Melsc made hla debut ln Berlin. His playing mado a deep Impression and met .with a popular success quite out of the or dlnary. Since then he has given two / performances In Paris. The young genius will make hi. home in tbl** country until he goes to America In'w.-vember, and will give some forty concerts. The Golden Spur A brewery concern began to build an extension to Its premises. Many .workmen were employed on tbe Job, but the work of digging the foundations advanced very slowly, to the annoyance of the proprietor. Suddenly it seemed as it new life had come Into the men. From early dawn UU late evening they worked with great Industry, bidding defiance to wind and rain. When the ground had been excavated to tbe required depth the men had to bc restrained from digging deeper still. Tlie brewer was delighted, but his rui-lf-isity was aroused as to how such remarking energy was Induced. He sought rnl.ghtinent from a manager. That astute individual, under pressure confessed to a little subterfuge.

U. 9S7 WARDENS APPEAL BREAKS CONVICT DOWN Latter Hesitates to Use Gun and When Captured Bursts Into Tears A daring attempt recently to escape from the Santo prison made hy a 20-year-old convict, was frustrated owing to an appeal to his feelings. Marcel Eckerleu is uuder sentence of live years' imprisonment for theft. His cell ls next to the room -of one of the Jailers, und there is a spyhole between the two, so that tbe jailor may watch the convict; I-Ckerlln can also watch the jailer, and on Wednesday he saw the Jailer In the next room change Into civilian clothes and go oft for a day's lease. As soon as he had gone the convict broke away part ot the wall round the spyhole and climbed through. He then dressed i.lms iif ln the jailer's uniform and stole a revolver and $40 »nd started to leave the prison. Fortunately his disappearance was noticed in time. ' The head warder, a man namtd Mallard, ordered a search for him ln the prison, and found the convict in a workroom on the top floor. When the chief warder opened the door of the workroom he was faced by the convict In warder'a uniform and with a revolver. The warder ln his hurry bad not taken a weapon with him. He stood perfectly still, opened his arms wide and said: Surely you won't shoot the father ot a family! The convict hesitated, the chief warder rushed at him, and he was overpowered, and burst Into tears. It was rumored In Paris that Eck- erlen's attempt at escape had been followed by an attempt to set free a number ot the ringleaders ot the Bon- not-Garnier gang, who were consigned to the Santo prison, but this story Is contradicted by the authorities. Recognized Her There were many good stories told about the late Mr. W. S. Penley, of "Charley's Aunt" fame. Perhaps one ot the best was the tale he told himself about an old friend to whom he gave tickets for lhe theatre one evening. Ills friend came, accompanied by a daughter, and Bellied down In hia stall with every Intention of enjoying the play; but he-had had a tremendously busy and tiring day. and during the first act he-fell fas^asleep. His daughter, greatly concerned ln case Mr. Penley might notice from Ihe stage thai her fa'her hail gone lo sleep, reproached blm bitterly for sleeping during his friend's performance. It was disgraceful, she said; to which he retorted lhat sbe was mistaken, be hadn't been asleep at all, he declared positively. During the second act lie sat bolt upright nud did hiB beat to keep awake; but just before the curtain fell he dozed off again, and hia bead dropped forward. When the lights were turned up his daughter prodded him violently, at the same time hissing in his ear/ Papa, do remember where you are! Charley's Aunt! Her father, still half asleep, only caught the last two words, but determined to show that he was wido awake he jumped to his feet and grasped lhe hand of an old lady who happened lo be passing along the row of seats in front of him.

D. Honsberger, of Grand Forks, and A. T. Davis, of Mirror Lake, before a large gathering of fruit growers and business men of tbe Nelson district -in the board of trade rooms, says the Nelson Daily News. It was finally decided by tbe gathering that a committee of six should he appointed.to go fully into the proposals aod report to the annual general meeting of the Kootenay Fruit Growers' union to beheld here on Tuesday next.. Mr. Honsberger, one of the best known and largest growers in the Kootenay-Boundary district, ad dressed the meeting on the proposals outlined. He is the father of the system of eo operation for fruit growers which is being presented to growers of the various fruit growing centres of the district. He opened by dealing with th great advantage which he claimed for his method. These were many, and he dealt with each. Tbere shouldj-be no graft, nor should there be any great profit to any one man, but the system should be one of co-operation, and the money earned should be put into such concerns as jam factories, canning factories, and other' facilities, which would be a profitable way ol disposing of the inferior grades of fruit. He advocated uniform methods and grades in packing, and said hi* was sure that a market could always be obtai.ied for the good quality of fruit. Financial failure Was impossible under his system, he stated, and he went on to deal witb the operating principles of the system. There would he a bead oHice,ao assembling house, a packing house and sales office, in which is'ahlishmenls econo my could he-practiced, and the fruit handled with the least possible expense. He explained the various handlings which would bo required for tl • fruit in passing from the grower to the consumer, and showed-the .Domical point* of his system. By bundling tbe fruit with tbis larger scope, he pointed out, the cheaper materials und lower inark.-t- ii-gcosts to the growers would result, which also was a great factor Indipendent canning and jam factories and the like should be eliminated, and the by products used by their own factories. "By giving our fruit to thp present association we are so much out of pocket," he staled, "until the fiuit is marketed, whereas under iny-sys- tem your money is guaranteed." Mr. Beeston.who was in the ch-iir. tben spake on tbe necessity of cooperation. "Without jt," he suid. "we can not make a success of the business." A general discussion of Mr. Honaberger's proposals then took place, in wbich many questions were asked. Several growers from up the 1 tbe points were present at the meeting, and showed considerable interest and took an active part in the questioning of Mr. Honsberger oc his co-operative plan. NtWS OF THt CITY IN BRIEF The mayor and all the aldermen were present at the council meeting on Tuesday evening, but the session was short, and aside from the transaction of routine work, no important business was done.

YOUNG VIOLINIST TO MAKE LON DON DEBUT Ptle of Twenty Years Acclaimed by Critics as Marvelous Player Daniel Melsa, an exceedingly clever soung violinist, who ls acclalmod by competent critics as possessing su- Iireme talent, has arrived In London, and will make his appearance at Stein- Wy Hall. There Is nothing ot the conventional n.UEic.11 genius about Melsa. He looks older than his years, which are not yet 20, but that is' usual with his race. His black hair is close cropped, his eyes have a rather dreams expression, but he ls interested ln everything and unite devoid of affectation. Of a singularly modest demeanor, lie does uot cure to talk about himself and career, though he is full of gratitude toward those who have befriended Mm. His early lito was singularly sad and overshadowed by a great tragedy, uorn at Warsaw in 1S93, .Melsa s parents removed to Lodz threo yeara later. The boy, when quite small, had a passion for music, and his father bought him a violin, on which he taught himself to play melodies. He had no lessons until he waa about 7 years of age, when a professor ot Lodz happened to hear hiin play, and was so astonished at the talent he displayed that he advised his father to have the boy educated, and prophesied a great future for him. After receiving instruction from minor musicians, the boy, at the age cf 0. entered the conservatorlum ot l'rofessor Grudzinski, where he remained two years. Misfortune came in June 1905. One afternoon Media's father, accompanied by his little daughter, went out Into the streets and never returned. This was the time ft tlle Jewish massacres, and it was only after a week's search that the child's body was found riddled with bullets, tn a deserted cemetery. Ot the father no trace remained. During this awful period the boy nnd his mother were in Imminent danger, but the Cossacks took pity on young Melsa, whom they remembered as having often delighted them with his violin playing, and thus his life and his mother's were spared. When the last echoes of the Pogrom bad died away sympathizing friends enabled tho hoy and his mother to go to Berlin, where his rare gifts soon won him a free course at the Kllnd- worth-Scharwenka Conservatorlum. The lad studied hard, and with such success, that in 1909, wben but 16, he caused something of a sensation hy winning the prize violin at a com ■petition. Mrs. Hill, wife of the American ambassador in Berlin, took a great interest In the boy, and It waB chiefly through her Influence that a fund was raised, to which many wealthy Germ- ana and Americans contributed, to present. Melsa with a violin and to place the family beyond want. A Berg- 0117.I of 1727 was bought at a eost ol I62.no, and Is now the cherished possession of the youthful virtuoso. He received further lessons from the well- known master, Prof. Karl Flesch, and on December 7 last Melsc made his debut In Berlin. His playing made a deep Impression and met with a popular success quite out of the Dr (Unary. Since then he has given two -performances In Paris. The young genius will make hi. home in thi- country until he goes to America In w ivember, and will give some forty concerts.

U, 937 WARDEN'S APPEAL BREAKS CONVICT DOWN Latter Hesitates to Use Gun and When Captured Bursts Into Tears A daring attempt recently to escape from the Saute prison made by a 20-year-old convict, was frustrated owing to au appeal to his feelings. Marcel Eckerlen is under sentence ot five years' Imprisonment for theft.. Hie cell ls next to Ihe room of one ot the jailers, and there ls a spyhole between the two, po that the Jailor may watch the convict. ICckerlln can also watch the jailer, aud on Wednesday he saw tho Jailer In the next room change into civilian clothes and go oft for a day's lease. As soon as he had gone the convict broke away part of the wall round the spyhole and climbed through. He then dressed l.imsilf in the jailer's uniform and stole a revolver and 540 and started to leave the prison. Fortunately his disappearance was noticed In time. ' The head warder, a man namtd Mallard, ordered a search for him In the prison, and found the convict in a workroom on the top floor. When the chief warder opened the door of the workroom he was faced by the convict in warder's uniform and with a revolver. The warder In his hurry had not taken a weapon with him. He stood perfectly still, opened his arras wide and said: Surely you won't shoot the father of a family! The convict hesitated, the chief warder rushed at him, and he was overpowered, and burst Into tears. It was rumored In Paris (hat Eck- erlen's attempt at escape had been followed by an attempt to set free a number ot the ringleaders ot the Bon- not-Garnier gatig, who were consigned to the Sante prison, but this story Is contradicted hy the authorities. Recognized Her There were many good stories told about the late Mr. W. S. Penley, of "Charley's Aunt" fame. Perhaps one ot the best was the tale he told himself about an old friend to whom he gave tickets for the theatre one evening. His friend came, accompanied by a daughter, and settled down in his stall with every Intention of enjoying the play; but he-had had a tremendously busy and tiring day. and during the first act ho fell fast^asleep. His daughter, greatly concerned in caso Mr. Penley might notice from the stage Ibal her father had gone to sleep, reproached him bitterly for sleeping during his friend's performance. It was disgraceful, she said; lo which he retorted that she was mistaken, he hadn't been asleep at all, he declared positively. During the second act ho sat bolt upright nud did his best lo keep awake; but just before -the curtain tell he doze-I off again, and his head dropped forward. When the lights were turned up his daughter prodded him violently, at the same time hissing in his car/ Papa, do remember where you are! Charley's Aunt! Her father, si'll hair asleep, only caught the last two words, but determined to show that he was wide awake he jumped to his feet and grasped lhe hand of an old lady who happened lo be passing along the row of seats In front of him. Charley's Aunt, ho exclaimed, shaking hands warmly. Why, so it Is! And how's Charley?

Hanson, wife of the proprietor of the Commercial Hotel, says: "1 suffered for yeara with bleeding piles. The pain was so bad at times that' I could hardly walk, and ordinary remedies seemed utterly unable to give me any ease. Finally I decided to undergo an operation, and went to the Sacred Heart Hospital ln Spokane. There they performed an operation and did all they could for me. For a time I was certainly better, but within 12 months the trouble started again and the piles became as painful as ever. I tried liniments, hot poultices, various 'pile cures', and Indeed everything I could think would be likely to do any good, but still I continued to suiter, and the shooting, burning, stinging pains, the dull, aching and wretched 'worn-out' feeling that the disease causes continued as bad as ever. 1 ***•>■■■■ - 'One day I read about Zam-Buk and thought I would try it. The first one or two boxes gave me more ease than anything else I had tried, so I went on with the treatment. In a short time I began to feel altogether different and better, and I saw thnt Zam- Buk was going to cure me. Well, I went on using lt, and by the time I had used six boxes I was delighted to find myself entirely cured. That was three years ago, and from then to the present time there has been no return of the trouble."

Cooperation on a large scale will be required if the British Columbia fruit grower wishes to remain in the business. It has often heen asserted that cooperation will prove the salvation of the fruit-growing industry in this province. It now begins to look ss if this prediction would come true, and it is therefore gratifying to learn thnt the ranchers of the Boundary and tha Kootenays have begun to seriously consider thit subject. J. D. Honsberger, of this cily, has a project of combining all tbe districts of the section .of the province into •one large organization for the purpose of handling thn fruit crop and utilizing the by-products, The plan should be carefully investigation, and if his Bystetn is found to be workable, no time should he wasted iu perfecting the organization. The indications are that it will be needed to market this season's fruit crop Advices from the other side of tbe line nay the American fruitgrowers active in furtherig the cooperative movements. At North Yakima last week a co-operative association known as the Nnrth Pacific Distrihu tors, which tnibrsces four western states, was organized. No individual grower, or miall district, on tbis side of the line can hope to successfully compete against tb * hupe Somk people devoid of reasoning j faculties are gifted witb a flow of words. Tbat appears to have been the condition of the speaker at the ! opera house on Tuesday night. He , denounced the eastern departmental stores, and urged the people to buy at home, whicb is good policy. But he also favored a restricted purchasing market for the home merchant. Until human nature undergoes a radical change, the only way to induce the people to do their shopping at home will be to make the conditions for the home business man so that he can compete with tbe eastern concerns. The man who works for two or three dollars a day, and is raising a large family, can not afford to consult tbe sentimental side of his nature when he makes a purchase. Alberta will have a provincial election next month. Heurli*, thf Libtrals win —IhUs, the Conserva lives lose.

The moon began to enter the deep shadow at 3:11 a.m., and then it looked as though a piece had been bitten, off its right surface. ThiB continued till,the shadow cast on the queen of night looked like a large copper cent.' It passed out of the deep shadow at about 4:44. Clouds interfered somewhat with the view.* The center of totality wus nt 3:66. An obscuration of the moon is produced hy the passage of the earth's shadow ttver Ibe surface tit the sattelile, and can only occur at full moon, for to constitute it the sun, the earth and the moon mil t be in a straight line, whichthi y nearly always are every lime the moon is full, and it brings us on nil such nrensions on the brink of a lunar eclipse. The law of light and shadow, na observed in an eclipse of the ii.jii'n is* n wonderful phenomenon.

C. s) American Co-operative System Embraces Four At a recant meeting in North Ya kima of tbe board of directors of tbe North Pacific Fruit Distributors a comprehensive, practical plap ol marketing farm and orchard pro- duets waa selected. ^ Of most importance among, the directors' decisions Were these: First, the organization will be governed by an executive committee or commission of four men from differ tricts; and second, the, best in existing marketing systems used by any district wid tie followed liy the North Pacific. On the executive committee are: J. H Robbins, North Yakima, chairman; H. F. Davidson, Hood River, treasurer; H. C. Sampson, Spokane, secretary.and W. T. Clark, Wenatehee, president of the board of directors, will be a member ex officio. On April 1 the offices will be opened in Spokane, with Secre tary Sampson in charge What the co-operative organiza tion pa s to do is explained by Mr. Sampson as follow..: "Fisj* of all, we will greatly reduce overhead expense, thus mak ing a saving for tbe grower. Wbere each separate organization now is put to expense in gathering market reports, involving expenditures of from 1100 to 1600 per month* by each, such organization in every district in Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana, our plan will be tq have tbis gathered only by tbe central organization and distributed to all tbe sub centrals.

Thus, any district now successfully using a,certain system in a particular market will be aided in every way in per feeling its system, and, in addition,. that district will be insured against a glutting of that market with apples from the Pacific northwest. "Ultimately we plan to present a plan to devote one cent per box to a 'und for a national advertising campaign tbat will'''help to popularize the apple."

I noticed that ln tbe case of several of tbe books she looked over she slipped ber thumb and Angers over the cover aa If to gauge Its thick- ness or smoothness, 1 couldn't tell which. ' Bhe laid out Ave books separate from the rest, all on religious subjects, and asked me tbe price ot the lot 1 figured It up, and she paid me without any effort to Induce me to tnke less, but stipulated tbat ahe sbould be permitted to bring any of tbem back within a week tii ba exchanged tor such others aa aha might select I agreed to this, and aha went awny. I suppose a hundred parsons ulgbt hsve come Into my shop- at different limes and looked. Into my slock wltb out attracting any especial notice from me, but tbls person excited an interest that 1 was unable to account for. I presume It was ber engaging presence. At any rate. I could not get ber out ot tny mind. Possibly lt was because 1 bad met one capable of kindling In me that Inexplicable feeling wbich Indicates tbe dawn of love. Be atl this as It may, 1 hoped that sbe would bring some ot tba books bsck for exchange tbat I might see her again. My hope was realised. On the sixth dsy after her first appearance she came again, bringing back n book printed ln 1845 and bound wltb all tba clumsiness of that period. The covers were abov I a quarter of an Inch thick. The title •was "Christian Advice to Young Men. I remembered her bavlng slipped het Angers over tbe covers of tbe books and ber return of this one Indicate! that If she was buying tbe books for the binding sbe did not care for a thick cover. 1 made some attempt to engage ber In conversation about ber purpose in buying tbe books, bot did not succeed In eliciting anything. On any otber subject she conversed wltb mo freely, and wben I got her Interested that sad look faded, to be replaced by an entirely different expression. 1 gave her another book In place ot tba one aha brought back and replaced the ono ahe returned on tha shelves. II abe went awny unconvinced ot my kindly feeling for- ber It was not my fault, for 1 showed ber as plainly as I could that 1 liked her. .What It was that Induced me, after ■ she bad gone, to tako tbe book she bad returned from its shelf and look It over I don't know, unless lt was the same feeling thut Induces a man to handle something that hss been held by a woman for whom hs has been Inspired with special tenderness. At any rale, I- ran over the pages and on a lower comer ot pago 100 noticed a singular mark. It mlgbt or mlgbt not be a monogram; It looked more like n snake tbat bud tied Itself up In an untlesble knot tban anything else, 1 bad no reason to suppofo that ibe young woman whs bad taken tt away and returned It had placed it there, but I was unable to divest my mind of tbe Impression that ahe bad. Somehow tbo Idea was growing upon me that there was a mystery connected wltb her of wbich ber book buying was a part 1 put tbo volume back on the shelf wltb a feeling of regret that there waa no reason to suppose I should see her again or aver know her secret-that Is, if there was a secret A week, possibly a fortnight, elapsed when an elderly womau enme tn who represented herself as purchasing agent for a benevolent society wbose object was to furnish books for ail persons needing them, especially religions literature, presenting her credentials, which were genuine. Bbe ransacked my shelves for wholesome books Intended, for persons of no great educa non. xne osiy volume ane asked for was "Christian Advice to Toung Men," saying tbat lt had been recommended to her tor the use of the society sbe represented. 1 took lt down for her, and. without examining lt at all, sbo placed It among tbe books sho set apart to purchase. Finally sbe directed me to send tbe lot to the rooms of the society she represented. This purchase of the book tbat had been returned by the young woman completely obliterated any fancies 1 hnd conjured up with regard to Its connection with a mystery. Bad It been baiieht bv a snsnlclona net-son. had tout person been seen to look tor the snskellke mark tn lt, those fancies might hnve gono on multiplying, but since lt bad been purchased ln an ordinary way I was bound to admit to myself that they were without any foundation whatever. From that time ou 1 dismissed thorn from my mlud. But I did not banish from my nilnil the young womnn wbo bad Impressed me. That sad face of hers, those Madonna- like eyes and, above all, the transition in ber tinder my effort to Induce ber to throw off what troubled ber were ever present wltb me. Within a few days after the visit of the purchasing agent, who sbould come tn but the youug woman wbo is the subject of tbls story. Bbe said that after all she had concluded to take the volume called "Christian Advice to Young Men." When I told her that lt bad been sold a scared look, or a disappointed look, I could not tell whicb, passed over her face. But wben 1 Informed ber who bad bought It, though she endeavored to concent a look of relief or pleasure, she did not succeed. Then I knew that tbe book waa connected In some way wltb tbe mystery which Interested me. Sho was leaving my store wben I caught at a method ot finding out more about her. I asked her for ber name and address, telling ber that I wished lt that I might mall ber my book circulars, Bbe hesitated, as tbough she did not wish" to give tbem, but finally .did so. I lost no time In walking past the number ahe gave and found the space occupied by a livery stable. Bhs had given me a wrong address. It ls needless to ssy that this deep ened my Interest ln ber.- Borne time passed before I saw anything more ot "my mystery." as 1 now began to call ber. Then one day she ! came In, and tbe moment I saw her I knew that there had been a great cbange ln ber. Tbe sad expression had left her face and had been replaced by one tbat I could only Interpret as a newly acquired hope. Sbe pretended tbat sbe cam* in to look for mora books, but t could see by (he way sbe picked tbem up and Immediately laid tbem down that she was not Interested tn them. I determined on a bold stroke. "Tou don't wish to buy any books today," I aaid. "Tou hare come in bere with an entirely different object Yoa bave been using my stock for iome especla; puriiose. Tbst purpose bas been either successful or partially so. Yon bare known from the first tbat you bave bad my sympathy. Assured ot this, It hss been bard for you not to trust me.

"There Is no reason why t should not now explain everything. I would bave been a fool before this to trust sny one. This Is the story: My father bas suffered a great wrong. He wna a bookkeeper and cashier for a mercantile firm.

"Our only hope was to enable him to escape, snd 1 took thnt work upon myself. 1 wus permitted to visit him In prison, and he told uie that he had laid out a plan by wblcb be might regain bis liberty, but It required a saw wltb which to remove steel bars. 1 attempted to smuggle one In to him, but was detected. Since then I havo never bcen permitted to visit hiin without some one watching me whllo near him. But I communicated with blm through others. When I curried the books away wilh me from your store 1 took one, 'Christian Advice to Young Men,' with very thick covers. Then I removed enough of tbe Interior of tbe covers to enable me to iuscrt several thin steel saw?." "Ab;" I exclaimed. "1 see It alii But go ou witb your story." - "1 dare not be Implicated In sending the book to-jy father, so 1 learned of a society organized to furnish rending matter to prisoners nnd got a friend to recommend It and tell where A copy could be bought Before returning the volume to you I placed In It a mark on tho one hundredth page which my father hsd been Instructed to look for to designate a book with aawa io tbe eover." -Again t seer* i resjisrxea "Well, to shorten a long story, my father obtained the saws, eut the ban of his cell and escaped.

If a certain incident in Roman history, as related by Pliny, be given lull credence, then it would seem that aluminium was derived by means ti a secret process long before our time. The story is this: During the reign of Tiberius there one day appeared at the emperor's palace a worker in metals who displayed a magnificent cup made of a brilliant white metal that shone like silver. In presenting it to Tib.-rius the artificer purposely dropped it. The piece was so bruised hy the fall that it seemed hopelessly ruined, but the metal worker took hist hammer, and In the presence of the' court quickly repaired the damage. It was thus evident to all that tlie metal was not silver, though it pre- sented an appearance as brilliant aa that metal. Besides, it was more durable and much lighter. The emperor, so Pliny relates, interrogated tho metal worker, from whom it waa learned that tho mysterious metal had been extracted from an argillaceous earth, in all probability the clay known to modern chemists as alumina. Tiberius then asked whether any one but the metal worker knew ot tlie process and received the reply that the secret was known only to tha worker and Jupiter. The answer was unfortunate, for, reasoned the emperor, if it were possible to obtain such a metal from so common a substance as clay, would not the value of gold and silver be reduced? Tiberius, it would seem, was determined to avert such a catastrophe, for he commanded the workshops ol the discoverer of the new metal to be destroyed and the luckless man himself to be decapitated, so that the secret might di) with him. Did the cruelty ol Tiberius deprive the world for centuries tl the use oi the metal aluminium? Sheep For the Farmer.
