The other night, when Miss Betts, of Fairfield, Conn., returned to her house atter taking tea with a neighbor, she went up stairs and found a man in one of the bedrooms rifling the bureau. Seeing that he had not noticed her entrance, she went softly down stairs, procured her bicycle and sped down the road o short distance to the house of the depnty sheriff. He at once returned with Miss Betts to her house, and with the aid of two men sum- moned from the highway svon had the burglar in custody. He was supremely disgusted to find that he owed his capture to a womaa’s presence of mind and quick- uess ¢ f action. THREE NOTED EPIsScO Who Have Used Dr, Agnew's Catarrha.

Able to “Yo get information of the illicit stills hidden away in the mountains the revenue officers look about them and “spot” a native whose poverty or feel- ing of revenge may make him an in- former. They offer him money, they buy him drink—they coax and threat- en, and at length they make a traitor of him. Before his conscience has time tosmite him a posse have galloped away into the hills. Sometimes the moonshiners receive warning and am- bush and kill, but far oftener three or four of them are captured together with their outfit, and perhaps one or two killed or wounded in the dash. The dead are left with their friends to bury—the living are jailed for months and finally sent to some far-off peni- tentiary for a term of years. ‘To be arrested means te be convicted, The meonfhiner had me money to feo lawyers. He was not making whiskey to make money, but to make a living —to use up the corn for which he had no market. One day when Joe Singleton was in Greenville to buy tobacco and some groceries, a revenue officer looked him oyer and noted that he was poverty- stricken, and lacked firmness of char- acter. He began to ‘‘work” him, and at the end of three hours Joe was lying drunk on the street and six revenue officers were off on the trail of a stiil they had been trying for months to locate. They found it, and they cap- tured four men at work. The four prisoners were placed where they could harm ne one, but they had relatives and friends. “We were betrayed! Who did it?” was whispered from man to man. Some one had seen Joe Singleton talking with a revenue officer. Some one had noted that he was flush of money. Even his own wife could not help but note that he went about with a guilty look and feared to goamong the people as before. ‘Joe Singleton did it! Joe sold us and must pay the penalty !” So men whispered to each vther, and there were women who encouraged and applauded. There is but one fate for the man who betrays a still. If heis not on the move and beyond the reach of vengeance when he is denounced as a*‘raitor his hours are numbered. Joe Singleton knew this, but he did not fly. When he awoke from his drunken slecp he dimly remembered what he had done, and he had not yet left town when the officers returned from their successful raid. He might have left the town and the State, but conscience prevented. When he fully realized that he was a traitor he said to him- self: “T have betrayed my friends. That means death, but I deserve it, and will stay and give up my life.” He knew that he was a doomed man as he made his way homeward. They might take his life that day, or the next, or wait a month, but nothing was surer than that he would be shot down sooner or later. His wife heard oi the raid on the still and suspected him. His children heard it spoken of and in- stinctively drew away from the father who sat before the rude fireplace with his face in his hands. Tho wife didn’t ask if he betrayed the still. One night when the children were asleep she calmly said: “Joe, they’uns will shore !” “Yes.” he briefly replied. That was all. She asked for no in- formation—he offered no excuse or ex- planations. Sometjmes he remained in the house for hours at a time, fearing a bullet if he showed himself at the door, and again he roamed the woods as if in search of some one to fire the fata! shot. The week was a long one for him. In that week he dragged out ten years of his life. His children hushed their voices—his wife looked upon him as dead. They gave him just a week. That was not mercy, but torture. It was on a Monday he betrayed the still. Saturday night came and he was still alive. At 8o’clock the moon rose. At half-past 8 the children were put to bed. At 9, as Joe Singleton sat gazing into the fire, having spoken neyer a word since noon, his wife looked up from a garment she was patching and said : “Joe, they’uns will kill yo’!* **Ves. ” ‘Better hev it over.” Tee,” He rose up and took his hat from its peg and crossed the room and went out doors. He did not say good-bye to the wife—he did not glance toward the sleeping children. He closed the door behind him and walked down to the road: lying white and hard under the moonlight. He did not look up the road nor down it. He shut his eyes, pulled coat and vest away from his breast, and stood there and prayed to God. Some one was in the thicket op- posite, There was the report of a rifle —a groan and a fali—and the widow and mother bent over the sleeping chil- dren and called to them: ‘‘Rouse up and help me tote the body into the house !” **What is it ?” they asked. “They’ve dun finished off yo’r dad- dy !” And they found him lying on his back with the great white moon shin- ing full into the face which death was painting the color of snow.—Detroit ree Press. kill yo’ fur Large Attendance et Colleges.

One doctor in examining me said I could not pass, but that my trouble was curable. He advised an aiterative medicine, and I commenced taking Scott’s Sarsaparilla. Both companies rejected me, but four months later, after I had taken five bottles of your remedy I am thanktul to say both accepted me as arisk—one being a stock com . the other a mutual.

A man who isa veteran and battle- scarred, who has seen every phase of life and knows all sorts of people, was | talking recently about the relative goodness of men and women. “The best man is not,” he asserted, “as good as the worst woman.” He holds that 4 woman is naturally the better, and no matter what she may do or how low she may be, she is better than a man can be. strange enough, coming as it does from the lips of a man, Another man, a young one, who has known many people of the best and of the worst sets, also talked on this same subject, but from another point of view. ‘**A good man,” said he; ‘that is,a man who is thoroughly upright and truly good, is much better than a good woman. His ideas of the right are higher than hers can be; and he has ideals that she can never have, and if he lives up to them such a man is bet- ter than the best woman.” Each man thought that his theory was correct; each claimed he had his knowledge from experience. I wonder whether the older or the younger of the philosophers was right in his estimate. Canadian Folk-Songs. French Canada is one of the ancestral homes of song. Here you can still listen to those quaint ballads which were sung centuries ago in Normandie and Provence. la Claire Fon- taine,” ‘‘Dans Paris y a-t-une Brune plus Beile que le Jour.” ‘‘Sur le Pont d’Avignon,” “En Roulant ma Boule,” ‘‘La Poulette Grise,” and a hundred other folk-songs linger among the peas- ants and voyageurs of these Northern woods. You may hear “Malbrouck s’en va-t-en guerre— Mironto1, mironton, mirontaine !”’ and “Tsabeau s’y promene Le long de son jardin,” chanted in the farm-house or the lum- ber-shanty, to the tunes which have come down from an unknown source, and never lost their echo in the hearts of the people, Our Ferdinand was a perfect foun- tain of music. He had a clear tenor voice, and solaced every task and shortened every voyage with melody. ‘A song, Ferdinand, a jolly song,” the other men would say, as the canoes went sweeping down the quiet lake. And then the leader would strike up a well-known air, and his companions would come in with the refrain, keep- ing time with the stroke of their pad- dles. Sometimes it would be a merry ditty : ‘ “My father had no girl but mq And yet he sent me off to sea, Leap, my little Cecilia.” Or perhaps it was: “T’ve danced so much the livelong day— Dance, my sweetheart, let’s be gay— I’ve fairly danced my shoes away, Till evening. Dance, my pretty, dance once more, Dance until we break the floor.” But more frequently the song was touched with a plaintive, pleasant melancholy. The minstrel told how he had gone into the woods and heard the nightingale, and she had confided to him that lovers are often unhappy. The story of La Belle Francoise was repeated in minor cadences—how her sweetheart sailed away tothe wars, and when he came back the village church bells were ringing, and he said to himself that Francoise had been faithless, and the chimes were for her marriage; and when he entered the church it was her funeral that he saw, for she had died of love. It is strange how sorrow charms us when it is dis- tant and visionary. Even when we are happiest we enjoy making music “Of old, unhappy, far-off_things !’’ “What is that song which you are singing, Ferdinand?” asks the lady, as she hears him hurfiming behind her.in the canoe. ‘‘Ah, madame, it is the chanson of a young man who demands of his blonde why she will not marry him. He says that he has waited long time, and the flowers are falling from the rose-tree, and he is very sgd.” ‘‘And does she give a reason ?” “Yes, madame—that is to say, a reason of a certain sort; she declares that she is not quite ready ; he must wait until the rose-tree adorns itself again.” “And what is the end—do they get married at last ?” ‘But Ido not know, madame. The chanson does not go so far. It ceases with the complaint of the young man. And it is a very uncertain affair—the affair of the heart—is it not?” Then, as if he turned from such per- plexing mysteries to something plain and sure and easy to understand, he breaks out into the jolliest of ali Can- adian songs: “My bark canoe that flies, that flies, Hola! my bark canoe |!” —From ‘‘At the Sign of the Balsam Bough,” by Henry van Dyke, in Har- per’s Magazine. Oatmeal and Oranges. No sort of food is better for the com- plexion than oatmeal and oranges. The finest complexions in the world are those of the Italian and Spanish ladies, who live largely on coarse-grained food and fruit like the orange or banana. It is said that the fact is becoming appre- ciated, and that some ladies, to acquire and preserve a good complexion, are living almost entirely on oranges. Half a dozen for breakfast, with a cup of coffee ; a dozen for lunch, witha glass of milk and a saucer of oatraeal, and a dozen more for supper, with a crust of bread and a sip of tea, may not be high living in the proper sense of the word, but such a course of diet will bring a complexion of peach and ivory which will drive almost any belle out of ber head with envy. —_—-- How to Get a “Sunlight” Book Ea OPERA This theory seems | Variety Entertainment HRISTMAS WEEK ——_IN AID OF THE— E.
