SENGA C..yrieht, 1904, fy Otht B L: : Sent* He took out two cards, writing on the back of one and returning it to her with the case. She glanced at the writing: *- JOHN LESTER, HOBO. NO ADDRESS. BORN IN BOSTON. ���������* Six (shabbily dressed men lounged in front of the fashionable hotel. Five, evidently comrades, conferred together In low tones; then one approached the ���������sixth man, saying guardedly, "Are you one of us?" The man smiled half satirically. "Naw; I'm de real ting, see?" His questioner turneO away in disgust The man laughed softly, the low, enjoyable laugh of one -who appreciates. A. tall young woman whose attire evi- flenetd wealth and refinement entered the hotel vestibule. On* of the five groaned softly. "Who Is she, Dyke?" eagerly questioned another. "Miss Kate Waring of Denver. ���������Worth half a million and eccentric. Visiting Cousin Dorothy. And me in this beastly tramp's rig!" Him Waring's stately entrance into tho great dining room was arrested by the baad waiter. ^ThSa way, madam," courteously. "I (wttl conduct you to the ladies' dining rooau" Mis* Waring glanced about her. "It is net necessary," calmly. "I will remain here." "Pardon me, madam, but ladies without escorts are served in the room at the right I will conduct madam"��������� Miss Waring's calm glance surveyed the email crowded room at the right and then returned to the great, cool room in which she stood, with palms end ferns in profusion. She noted the many vacant tables and the number of ladies present "I de not wish to go in there. I prefer to have dinner served here," making the statement tranquilly with the Alt et one accustomed to have deference accorded her slightest wish. "The rule is imperative, madam," Rrttb courteous firmness. "Ladies without escort"��������� "Reserve that table by the window -jrria-the-ferns-beside-itr-the-third-ott the left." And the graceful figure ���������turned to the outer door. There waa no hesitancy in Miss War- ictfa Totce or manner as she addressed the group of shabby men. "Will ������ne of you gentlemen do me & favor?" clearly and unsmllingly. Six shabby head coverings were off la an instant, and six more or less manly forms bent low before her. "Hiamk you all," gravely. "I want oae of you to act as my escort and my guest that I may be accorded the privilege"���������the scarlet lips curled a trifle��������� ���������'of baring my dinner where I have chosen to have it. I will ask you, please," turning abruptly to the one ,who had designated himself as "de real ting." "Oh, but"��������� began one of the un- choson eagerly.

Ho's one of tlie fellows set to watch as!" "JJousonso, Dyke! There isn't a man In the class as old as he. lie's seen actual tramping, I'll stako a thousand on it. Why didn't you tell Miss Waring wbo you are?" ������������������Aron't iro under oath not to dis- cloeo our identity?" demanded PyUo hotly. "Besides, look at me!"

You might remind me if���������if I forget anything. It's a long time since I.have dined with ladies." The tone was serious, but there was a dancing light ln the fine eyes that Miss Waring caught and she smiled sympathetically. There was but little conversation. Miss Waring was graciously courteous, as became a hostess, but even a dull man in Lester's place would not have presumed upon the situation. "I thank you for your escort Mr. Lester," said the girl dismlssingly as tbey passed out '1 am' your deDtor, Miss Waring," earnestly. "If I were not a hobo I would ask when and where I might pay my dinner call." A sudden Impulse prompted her reply. "Tomorrow evening. My present address Is on the card you have." In all her twenty-five years Kate Waring had never before been so curious or so antlcipative. She smiled approval at the card he sent up, a slip of paper with "John Lester" boldly written. She was still smiling when she entered the drawing room, but the smile vanished as she noted the fashionable clothes he wore. He was quick to see the change. ^You are sorry I c-aiue? It was taking an advantage"��������� "Pardon me, I am somewhat disappointed. It was a pleasure to find something genuine. I do not like imitations, not even an imitation hobo." "It Is now that I am the imitation, Miss Waring. The clothes are hired for the occasion." She held out her hand cordially. "Consider yourself welcomed, Mr. Lester, and allow me to say that the "clothes-are~very~beeoming;"���������������������������-���������*��������� He flushed boyishly. "It's five years since I've worn a rig like this. I hardly knew how to put it on." Miss Waring led the conversation to topics of interest to a man of education and refinement���������books, music, the drama���������finding her companion conversant with the best "Will you tell me something of yourself���������she asked presently���������"why you are a���������a wanderer and how you live? Even a traveler must eat I suppose." Ho hesitated but an Instant "I have tramped for five years. I work awhile in a place till the devil drives me on again���������the devil of my conscience. I suppose it will yet drive me back to"���������his face grew grave and his voice harsh, but he kept stoically on���������"to Dehver, whero I am wanted for the murder of Manuel Laredo, a Mexican, whom I killed on Starbright ranch." She rose excitedly. "I bought Starbright ranch last year. Manuel Laredo is among tho workmen there!" He sprang to his feet, his face aglqw, his eyes filled with sudden joy. "He did not die, and I am not"��������� Then his face paled again. "I forgot" hoarsely, "there may be a dozon Manuel Laredos; those Moxlcan namos"��������� "It is tlie same man," she Interrupted positively. "I have heard tlio story and seen tho scar of tlio bullet on bis cheek." Sho talked on, waiting for him to regain control of himself. "Wo should be friends, Mr. poster. Royal Thornton Is my stepbrother. I bavo often beard him speak of the trip abroad tliat you two mado together years ngo, I know now why your namo seemed so familiar, Will you go back to Colorado?" He took ber outstretched band In both Ids own. "As your escort, Miss Waring?" She smiled assent, flushing beautifully.

Even though a man may try hia best to love his enemies it is hard fer him to stay awake at night just because they have the toothache.

Tried Many Medicines but Got No Relief Till" He Used the Great Cana- dian Kidney Remedy. Rosedene, Ont, July, 17.���������(Special). ���������Mr. Samuel J. Crow.the well-known musician of this place, relates an experience that adds to the already great popularity of Dodd's Kidney Pills in this locality. "I Buffered for years with Kidney Trouble," says Mr. Crow, "which became aggravated with every attack of cold and caused me much agony. The -disease-drveloped���������into-Gravel-j���������when- I was totally unfit for anything. "I tried different remedies without the .desired result and was in much misery whon I decided to try Dodd's Kidney Pills, when to my astonishment and delight I immediately began to recover. "After using five boxes the ailment had entirely ceased and I was again enjoying perfect vigor, all of which I owe to Dodd's Kidney Pills."

Leaning forward from the stepladder to fasten the horseshoe in the direct center of the casing over the door, the flutter of a blue gown on the porch had caught his eye. And as the wearer stepped lightly over the threshold the nervousness engendered by his sudden recognition caused the bit of battered Iron to fly from his Angers. For one horrified instant he hardly dared look. Then he saw that it had only grazed the arm of the girl entering and, deflecting, had crashed into the Venetian mirror.

Thin Is my deduction. The Yankees who cajtie tne country of their nativity wiy* pride, they find a solace In their new surroundings that no man who has hot lived abroad and been well treated by people of his own language and ways, can appreciate. There is no practical difference in a Canadian and a Yankee. They look alike, talk alike, their religion is similar, and their instinct quite In accord. The Conservative party here is similar to the Republican party In the States. The adherents are called Tories for convenience. The Liberals stand for much that the Democrats do, and are called Grits. Tho Grits are in control of the National Parliament or Congress, though in Mai-, nltoba and the Territories, the Tories flourish in the majority. Each province or territory has its Legislature, exactly as does Missouri and each sends delegates to Ottawa, which Is the na** , tional Capital, commonly called 'the | Washington ot the North.* In every particular this National Parliament compares with Congress. It has, how- I ever, a body of Senators, who hold of-, j flee for life. It ls really of no political j consideration, being practically honor- i ary. All legislation must originate la . the House.

After describing our Parliamentary system, Mr. Porter says it ls difficult for an ex-Piker to see why there should be any hostile feeling on the part ot the States for the English system. "The King receives about the same vague reverence that the mythical Uncle Sam does in the States'. I havei never seen a more law-abiding people, that hideous thing, lynch law, has no place ln even the traditions of Canada."

M. DAVIES OGDEN Copurlght. 1904, bu A. M. Davies O-gden A breath of spring waa already in the air. March had come, the "���������winter was over, and tonight Was the last opera night of the season, "Die Wal- kure" *was being given with a phenomenal cast, and the house was crowded. Even the boxes filled early. Mrs. Wilmore, gorgeous, fussy, important in white satin, with rows of emeralds, fluttered to her seat, carefully assigning the places for her three guests. She had brought Mabel with her for a definite purpose which she did not mean should miscarry, and as the girl leaned back in the chair her aunt eyed her sharply. But Mabel had sense. She knew what was expected of her, and after their talk this afternoon she was not likely to do anything foolish. Luckily that affair with young Cortright was ended. And Mrs. Wll- BB STOOD W THB AISLE, HIS EYES FIXED ON HESS. more tamed to chat at her ease with the elderly beau at her shoulder. Mu- Bic held no charms for ber. Tho girl, too, stared in but listless fashion at the stage where Slgmund lay exhausted by the dying fire, What significance did it hold for ber? Onco she bad loved music, but now��������� Tho girl shivered slightly, feeling that all emotion lay dead In her heart. Henceforth luxury, comfort, was to bo hor desire. Glancing up at the gallery gods, where thoy leaned In ecstasy, bor lip curled in memory of tho times when she, too, had sat tliere, contrasting thoso times unfavorably with her present position. And that cold llttlo room that sho called home! The man besido hor could glvo all that heart could wish; tho countless resources of immenso wealth lay at his command. And tonight she bad been brought hero that ho might ask her to sharo all this, Tamoly sho sat, awaiting bis pleasure. For a moment tho girl's prido revolted. A hot flush burnod ber faco, It had not been llko this whon Randolph had bogged hor to ,walt for him. "I lovo yon, I lore youl" ho had said, bis clear bluo young eyos looking straight Into hers, "And whon I havo [won a bomo I Bhall como for you," But tlmt was a yonr and moro ago now, Aud manors had boon growing etoadlly worse with hor. First bad como tho lone Illness, using up hor llttlo board, thon hor difficult strngglo to rosurao work. How different everything would havo boon If hor fathor bad only lived 1 Hor mother was a moro, vnguo, beautiful memory, Thoro was only Aunt Ella left.

And then, with a sodden soft preluding of exquisite sweetness, Siegmund broke into the full rush sud swing of the spring song, "Winter Storms Now Wane to the Winsome Moons." The notes poured out In a vory flood of exultant Joyousnees. Mabel's throat contracted; her eyes glowed. "Thou art the spring!" raujj Sleglinde's rapturous answer. And the girl, utterly oblivious of all else, bent forward, her lips parted, hor breath quickening, absorbed, enthralled by tho mighty weaving web of melodies. Whittaker spoke, but she did not hear. Her aunt frowned. But the girl, conscious only of a sudden passion for outdoors, for the eternal verities, for life, was beyond the reach of criticism. The curtain fell, and with a little sigh Mabel came slowly back to earth. A quick, cynical curve marred her mouth. Spring! What was spring after all? A cheat an illusion of the senses, a beautiful dream that melted Inevitably into "tne rrosta una emu w winter! There was no spring for her! And then she saw him.

Many Aro Apparently Mere Creatures of Circumstances, but Others Commit Crime Because of the Devilment That la in Their Make-Up ��������� The Question of Indeterminate Sentences. Brigadier W. P. Archibald of the Salvation Army, Dominion Commissioner for Paroled and Discharged Prisoners, writes of his work as follows:-��������� I am sure all question in connection with the work of parole will settle themselvee If we keep faithfully at work on Just and right principles. There is a great deal tbat is illuminating in the present duty faithfully discharged, and the light of it creates an ample amount of daylight in which to attend to the duty that comes next It ls like walking with a lantern on a dark night, bo long as you keep going the light will keep far enough ahead to show you the way, which is much more intelligent than to sit down as many do with their problems and discuss the question as to how to get through the darkness that ls a mile ahead of them. Reconstruction of the Individual. The fundamental principle of our work ls reconstruction���������to make men new creatures. Everything else with me ls subsidiary matter. Society cries, punish the evil-doer. I say not only punish, but correct him. If a man has been in prison for 5 years it is a momentous instant for him when the iguafd slips the bolt at the gate and He steps out a free man. But if this man was a criminal five minutes before he was discharged from prison, so is he five minutes after he had been let out Into the fresh air. Moving the bolt only resharpened his circumstances without doing anything to change the man, and the proof ls often verified by this man's return to prison in a few days 0* weeks as the case may be. Change of circumstances ls no index of change of character. Constructive work has first of all to be put into personality. It is not conditions that transform the man into the new creation, but conditions have both place and influence as a means. Croatffre8~"ofYCircumstance8;���������"��������� It is a painful fact but there is no denying it the great mass of men living to-day are tools of circumstances; thistle down to the breeze, straws on the river of life, their course is shaped for them by the currents and the eddies of the streams, but only in proportion as they aro things, not true men and women. Man was Intended not to be the slave but the master of circumstances; and in proportion as he recovers, his humanity,. in every sense of the word, ln proportion as he gets back hia manliness, which is truly self- sacrifice, affection, loyalty to his nation and to a Cod above himself, so far will be rise above his circumstances, It would be nearer tho mark to say that man is the architect of circumstances, It Is character that builds an. existence out of circumstances. Our strength. Is only measured by our plastic poWer. From the same material one man builds palaces, another hovels, one warehouses, another, villas. Bricks and mortar are simply mortar and bricks until the architect oan take and make them something else. Thus it is that in tho same family, In the same circumstances, one man roars a stately edifice, while his brother, vacillating and Incompetent ever lies among the ruins and finds his way at last to the felon's colL Tho blook of granlto which was en obstacle In the way of the weak becomes a stepping stone ln tbo pathway of tho strong, Truo humanity consists not In tho startling and shrinking at tales of misery wo como ln contaot wltb ln the prisons but in a disposition of heart to rellovo lt. Truo humanity appertains rather to tho mind than to the nerves and prompts men to use roal and oommoo sense methods In extending to tho fallen the holplng hand ln a practical way. The Relapsed Criminal, The groat plague of socloty is the recidivist, Ho ls the man or woman who bos gono to prison half a dozen tlmo-*, or It may bo fifty or a hundred. In somo countries a criminal who has been to prison two or three times Is regarded as a rocldlvlat without reforonco to tho naturo of his offence, Undor tbo German system he ls rogardod as a recidivist only when he repeats his offence Thoro are recidivist* who aro professional and anti-social.

As to I ndeterminate Sentences. The Indeterminate sentence system would greatly strengthen our hands in working out the problem in connection with tho relapsed criminal ln Canada. I would apply this system to every man going to jail or prison on the third com* mltment and sometimes on the first and second. If a man had made up his mind to follow a criminal life, he Is better off. In prison than at liberty. Society also/will benefit by this protection. When conditionally released he will havo the opportunity of proving himself, and, If he should lapse Into his former Hfs be would Immediately for* teak nia parole ana no returned 10 prison. Let me dte the Swiss system in dealing or reducing tbe recidivists and discharged prisoners tn tho Canton of Nouchatel. The recidivists ln their prisons ln tbe year of 1870 number 78 per oent of the total population. With the Indeterminate sentence system from 1870 to 1893 recidivism decreased to 4 por oent Now tho recidivist Is soldom found ln tbelr prisons, Our present system In Canada has but little effect on the recidivists, Very few relapsed criminals desire to reform or ohango their way of living, hence on their discharge they refuse any work offored or provided to assist them. Many have said openly to me, "I prefer to follow the graft" Something must bo done to lessen this great evil. Give tho Indetormlnato son ton 00 system a trial and tho axe will be laid to the root, and this persistent paraslto will begin to diminish and disappear undor tho good and wlso administration of our Canadian prisons.

ANXIOUS MOTHERS. The summer months are a bad time for little ones and an anxious time for mothers. Stomach and bowel troubles come quickly during the hot weather, and almost before the mother realizes that there is danger the little one may be beyond aid. In every home at this season there should be kept a box of Baby's Own Tablets, and at the first symptom of illness they should be given. They promptly cure cholera infantum, diarrhoea and stomach troubles, and are just the thing a mother needs at this time to keep her children well. Mrs. Frank Moore, BrockQeM, N.

There is a pathetic account of Mo- liere's last appearance which shows the supreme courage which sickness could not dissipate and which was a part of him till death. His health had long been failing and he had suffered for years with a distressing cough, which rapidly became worse. On the day of the third presentation ot "La Malade Imaginalre," 1673, he was so ill that his wlf* and friends entreaty him not to pertorxn. i>ux ae was near to tneir appeals. "What can 1 doV" he said. "There are forty workmen who have only their daily pay to live upon, and they will lose that if I do'not act. I should reproach myself if I neglected to give them their bread for a single day." Though more than usually indisposed, he went through his part wltb great difliculty. Once during the performance the company could not but see that he was convulsed, but he passed lt off with a forced laugh. When It was over he left the stage, saying to his friends, "The cold is killing me." He was wrapped up warmly, and his chair man sent to convey him to his home. No sooner was he iu bed than he was seized with a violent fit of coughing, -which brought on a hemorrhage, and he died before hia wife could reach his side. His last words were to assure his friends that the hemorrhage was not alarming in any way and urging them to take courage. JAPANESE MIRRORS. "During one of my trips through Europe," says Charles Hawtrey, "I found myself in a small village with no razors. They had been packed in my handbag, which I had left at the hotel the day before. There was no barber shop in the place, and I was in a quandary as to now I might get shaved. The innkeeper told me there was a man in the village who occasionally shaved people, and I determined to risk a cut or two and send for him. The amateur barber arrived, and after a little hesitation he said to me: "'Will you please, sir, lie down flat on your back while I shave you, sir?' "Thinking that it was probably the custom of the country, I stretched out comfortably on my back and nearly went to sleep while the fellow shaved me, so light was his touch. When he had finished I said: ���������" 'I am curious to know why you asked me to lie down to be shaved?' " 'Because, sir,' was his ingenuous reply, 'I never before shave a live man."' ��������� They Are a Powerful Nervine.���������Dys- pepsia causes derangement of the nervous systera, and nervous debility once engendered is a difficult thing to to deal with.
