over and, by your soul turns back with longing eyes and search of love's lost paradise; asking heart still longs to hear your footstep and your voice near. day, or night, I turn to thee, worshiner and devotee; my spirit, my heart, still flame; my heart but an echo's name; my self to self unknown The Uplifting of Bettie. BY SARA LINDSAY COLEMAN. Copyright 1992 by Daily Story Pub, Co.) Bettie was always pretty but that murmuline she was a picture. The primal movement had flung the blood on her cheeks, her hair had blown out her face, her lips were parted and her eyes were shining. Betty eyes had a way of shining. Nicholson stepped out of the road to give her flying steer the right of way. As she flashed past her bunbonnet, to her throat by its strings, danced her shoulders. Nicholson sat on the log and pondered. A beautiful thought had come to him. As the girl passed she said, "Howdy, Mister." There was a strong grain of philanthropy in Nicholson and the chance to work out a long cherished plan was at hand. All his life he had heard of the narrowness and ignorance and poverty of these shut-ins among whom he was thrown. As seen they had not appealed to him, but there were possibilities in this beautiful child. So enthused was he with his project so intent on mapping out a program that would bring beauty into the forest child's life that he looked up to find the object of his thoughts approaching. She was riding slowly and as she grazed Nicholson her horse swerved, rabbit scuttled from the fern bed. Nicholson sprang to his feet and grabbed the bridle. It was all very simply and natural done. No doubt the spirit of the rest was in sympathy with Nicholson and had thrown this chance at him. But he stood speechless and awkward, clinging to the mountaineer's nose. His acquaintance with young ladies had not extended to those who dung a "Howdy, Mister," at him. It was Bettie who broke the silence. "I mus' be a-travelin'," drawled the girl "it air time ter milk old Suke." Nicholson burst into a roar of earth in which the girl joined. Two who have laughed together in the land where the old chief rests never thereafter strangers. "I beg your pardon," gasped Nicholson, "but can't you get up some genuine?" Bettie's eyes held a gypsy glint, her dimpled into laughter again, and the brown pools of her eyes laughed. She made a movement of flight, then halted. "The caff," she said, "it air real." The forest engulfed her, so quickly did she vanish. When it finally occurred to him that she did not mean to return, he was diving on the moss covered log at the time, he got to his feet and followed. The road fell into a compromise between road and trail as it climbed. It followed a sparkling stream. Nicholson passed alluring by paths to sitate at a foot bridge that crossed the stream and left the trail. He crossed the log and followed a foot path that wound its narrow way upward. A stair in the branches of a tree there him caused Nicholson to look up as Bettie, who sat in a crotch of the tree, looked down. In retrospective afterthought Nicholson was forced to confess to him that in the morning spent with Bettie he had not once thought of his philanthropic scheme, or of the special gulf that yawned between them. When next he climbed to the Eagle Nest, she had told him that the double cabin above them was her home and called Eagle Nest, he carved a small picture of the child and madonna, prettily framed. It was a favorite of his, and some dim idea of giving it to her, of telling its story and in this way making a beginning was in his mind. He found Bettie under the tree and really engaged at something she WILSON Nicholson sprang to his feet and seized the bridle. trust in her bonnet when he approached. He took the picture from his pocket and handed it to her. "It's a picture I fond of," he said, hesitating. "May I give it to you." Bettie's face wore its witch look. It crinkled up with delight, and the brown pools of her eyes—when the sun strikes a clear mountain stream to its heart it glints like Bettie's eyes. She looked at the picture gravely. "It pears ter me," she drawled, "bet the little 'un favors its mar powerful." Beloved one, the day must come When love shall be no longer dumb; When faith, undying faith, shall shine In triumph o'er your world and mine, And soul to soul, and heart to heart. Our lives shall be as one, sweetheart. But, ahl the long, uncertain wait; The hidden pathway of our fate; The shadows, dear, that glide between The dreams of life my soul has seen. While your by hour, and more and more, I miss you so! I miss you so! mation then and there—he abandoned it in a roar of mirth. Each day he crossed the foot-bridge to find Bettle. Every fiber of his being rejoiced in the long summer days and Bette. Every nier of his being rejoiced in the long summer days—days that only high altitudes breed. The intoxication of living in close touch with sun and air and earth in their summer mood was upon him. He did not mar their perfection by taking thought. Smiling, indulgent, happy he lived in the light-hearted, untroubled present. But paying is part of Life's game, and borrowed Joy carries a heavy interest. The day came when the man climbed the hill with lagging steps. "I'm going home," he told her, abruptly. "Be you," nonchalantly. "You'll marry a mountaineer and forget me?" "More 'n' likely." "You love me," savagely. Betty laughed with the abandon of a child. "Law, naow," she said, "ain't ye funniin?" She drew herself up and the cool tinkle of ice in a glass was in her voice. "I air capable o' takin' keer o' myself." Again she dimpled and cooed. "Good evonin'-it—air time ter milk old Suke." Nicholson had been dismissed as coldly as his own sister could have done it. There was a wonderful moon that night. It balanced itself on a mountain crest, swung off into space and M. L. C. "It pears to me," she drawled, "that the little un favors its mar powerful." swept up the wall of the sky, putting out the fire of the stars in its path. It fell on Nicholson, who climbed the big hill with steps that did not lag; it fell on Bettie and left soft uncertain patches on her white gown. A silence that filters through to the core of one's spirit held the heights. A wisp of a cloud, white as the dream of one beloved, followed the moon's track. Nicholson came suddenly from the shadow of the little porch where Bettie sat. He had never been to the Eagle Nest before. He knew nothing of the girl's home life. He took off his hat and stood before her. "Could you marry me to-morrow?" he asked. Bettie disappeared in the shadow. "Tain't likely," she said with a spirit. Nicholson stormed up the steps and lifted her from the chair into his arms. "Jes' come 'n' see my aunt," said Bettie, some time later. Nicholson followed her into the cabin. It may have been the pictures on the wall, the books scattered everywhere, the open piano—one of a dozen things—it may have been Bettie herself, wearing a conventional gown and with softly puffed hair, her face crinkled up with mischief. "Who are you?" demanded Nicholson, sternly. "What are you doing here?" "Jes' restin'," said Bettie. "I be a book-writer, apologetically. Half unconsciously Nicholson lifted the nearest book from the table. Hopes Afield, he read, by Elizabeth Burroughs. He knew the book. For months it had been among the best sellers. As he put it down his eyes fell on the Madonna his gift. "So you made a fool of me for the sake of material?" His voice was bitter. Bettie reflected. "I war experiment in," she confessed. Seeing the look on his face she went to him swiftly. The gypsy van ished—all woman she stretched out her arms to him. "I hate experiments," sobbed Elliz abeth Burroughs. Easily Recognized. A well-known Philadelphia lawyer who thinks he compacts himself with reasonable dignity, at least, was a recent visitor in Savannah, and, according to his own story, was given reason to look himself over for flaws in his appearance. After being closed three hours or longer on business that consumed a great deal of energy and nerveforce, he went into a tavern and, looking over the array of bottles behind the bar, asked: "What kind of whisky have you here?" "The kind you sell!" answered the barkeeper, with something of resentment in his tone. "What—what do you mean?" asked the Philadelphiaian. "O!—stow it! Slow that talk!" was the reply. "You're all alike—you feel lows are. It's a case of come in, size up the bottles, and then ask: 'What kind do you keep?' I tell you what, I can spot a whisky drummer from here to 'Frisco!' Trouble begins with the first back ache. Backache comes in many forms—sudden twinges of pain, sharp stitches, slow, exhaustive aches. Most backache pains are kidney pains. The kidneys fail to perform the duties nature intends them to do and the warning of trouble comes through the back. Neglect the kidney warning, grave complications will surely follow. Urinary disorders, Diabetes, Bright's Disease, are the downward steps of neglected kidneys. Doan's Kidsy Pills cure every kidney and bladder sickness and the cure lasts. Read this proof of it: Mrs. Adam Guntle, residing at 701 South Plum St., Crawfordsville, Ind., says: "I made a public statement in 1897, saying that Doan's Kidney Pills had cured a member of our family after he had suffered for years with a weak back and kidney troubles. He took three boxes of this remedy and was completely cured. Now three years have elapsed since I made this statement and I am only too pleased to reindorse it. I have also used Doan's Kidney Pills myself, obtaining the best results. I have recommended this remedy to my friends and neighbors as one which can always be depended upon." A FREE TRIAL of this great Kidney medicine which cured Mrs. Guntle will be mailed on application to any part of the United States. Address Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y.

They put a tiny lamp inside, so that the light shall show through the windows of the diminutive house or castle. These houses were first made for candlesticks, and later on were chiefly used as pastille burners in the days when people thought it unhealthy to ventilate a sick room. The Latest Swell Fad. Transplanted eyelashes and eyebrows are said to be the latest things in the way of personal adornment.

There is something remarkable in the growth of "Correspondence" schools which have within a few years compelled the public to recognize them as among the most important educational forces in the country. Their success is another demonstration of the average American youth who when he cannot obtain sufficient money to attend college takes advantage of "home study" and "correspondence" courses. Unable to go to college he brings the college to his home and "gets an education" in leisure hours where it is not to be had on more convenient terms. At the beginning of this general movement many educators doubted its genuine value. But there is something convincing in the fact that thousands who have taken instruction by Mall are holding positions. Having had numerous calls from persons desiring instruction by Mall Spalding's Commercial College, Kansas City, Mo., (the oldest and largest in the West), has prepared four mail courses embracing bookkeeping, short hand, typewriting and penmanship, for those who are unable to attend its College.

According to the Topeka State Journal "eating" oysters were served at a recent Crown Point fete. Now what can oysters eat up excepting money Office holding in Kansas isn't always what it's cracked up to be. Rossville's city marshal has resigned to become a member of a railroad section gang. An Emporia man has been sent to the penitentiary for five years for trying to live with two wives. It's ten to one that away down in his heart this man isn't kicking. A certain section of the Coffeyville auditorium is reserved for negroes and the white people use the remainder. Strange to say most of the thespians who strike Coffeyville "play" to the black side of the house. "We wonder," says the dyspeptic editor of the Atchison Globe, "why some of the patent medicines don't advertise that they make a stomach fit for sausage and buckwheat cakes, and thus make a hit with the men." It is announced that penitentiary twine will not be any cheaper next year than it was this. Isn't it possible, though, that some legislator can wield influence enough during the winter with the warden to Jewett down. A North Topeka street car collided with a wagon load of coal the other day and about a bushel of the precious fuel was spilled in the mud. Contrary to all laws of pleasantly the coal man accepted fifty cents for his loss and let it go at that. A Thayer dentist advertised in verse the other day ending, "like the ancient ivy I live upon decay." The "ad" was seen by a patron of the tooth extractor who suggested the following as an addition: I live upon decay but yet, For, while I defyly pull the tooth, I also pull the leg. J. H. Lathrop, nominee of the Allied party for governor, advances some good reasons why he should be electe- d. He says: "I have camped on the trail of wrongdoers, poured balm on the sick, given strength to the weak and spread light everywhere." If the attendance at the political "rallies" in Kansas this year is any criterion, the total vote will be about 50 per cent of the vote two years ago. "When the east-bound train pulled into this station Tuesday morning," says the Onaga Herald, "the conductor whispered that a runaway couple from Manhattan were in the rear coach. A sensation like that was not to be sneezed at. We had never seen a couple of runaway human beings and we wondered if they were standing in the car all trembling and snorting and covered with foam like old 'Snap' and 'Sorrel' used to be when they ran away. With eight or ten other rubber-necks, we hopped aboard to see them. Really there wasn't anything to see. They looked just as quiet as could be. It was a love affair, we presume, but what the young fools fell in love for we are at a loss to understand, for she was as homely as the south end of Havensville from the depot up, and the young man looked like a West-moreland ball player. The Emporia Gazette has a copy of "The Life of Harry Tracy," over which the carrier boys fight, when Mrs. White isn't looking, to see who's going to read the enext chapter. Coffeyville is the home of an extraordinary girl. She wrote an obituary "poem" the other day and didn't once use that cold, stereotyped rhyme of "left us and bereft us." The Kansas Swedes are not all in McPherson county. August Swedenburg is the nominee for sheriff in Saline county. According to the Topeka Mail and Breeze there is a piece of land in Central Kansas that has been in corn for twenty consecutive years and raised an excellent crop this year. What state can beat this record? A reporter for the Topeka Capital who interviewed Frederick Funston this week says the general is growing fat. He must weigh almost 100 pounds. An Atchison girl is going to marry an Italian nobleman and local pride is such that it is expected the next corn carnival will have a macaroni annex. At a Topeka temperance rally this week photographs of the interior of several points will be shown by means of a stereopticon. The pictures will do much to dispel the "gilded palace" idea. A Leavenworth street car, crowded with people going to a foot ball game the other day, stopped at Elm street to take on several high school girls. "How are we going to get into that crowded car?" asked one. "Hurry up and I'll squeeze you inside," came from the conductor. "Well, I just guess you hadn't better try it, smarty," returned the young woman, indignantly. And then the crowd laughed. Hutchinson decided that brick pavements are not only too noisy, but too cheap, so its main street will be paved with asphalt. An Eldorado citizen, Bent Murdock says went into a big restaurant in an Eastern city and the waiter asked him: "Table d'hote or a la carte?" The Eldorado man replied: "Bring me both and with plenty of gravel." A woman in Wellington objected to the celluloid collar which her husband persisted in wearing. One day she stole the collar and put it in the stove. There was an explosion, in which the woman was considerably singed, and the house was set on fire. The Iola Register was the first paper to suggest a reunion of all the ex-lovers of Mrs. Edith Willits. Coal strikes have become so expensive and troublesome that a lot of towns in Kansas have almost ceased to care whether their coal holes pan out or not. A suit was filed in Lyon county this week to "amerce the sheriff in costs." A good Baptist brother heard of it and went right down to the courthouse to ask the judge if the sheriff could not be immersed in water just as well. Motor Cars in Scotland. The motor-car terror is said to have struck Scotland severely on account of the number of rich tourists who visit that country. In one case a heavy racing automobile, running very rapidly at night, plunged into a flock of sheep being driven to market, and killed and mangled quite a number of them. Modern Tower of Babel.

The anniversary of what is known as the Paull massacre, when Gen. Wayne with 1,500 men was set upon by 3,000 British on September 20, 1777, twenty-one miles from Philadelphia, was unobserved this year for the first time since the Revolutionary War. A high granite monument now marks the site of the battle. LEAVES Ministry for Commerce. Rev. Charles A. Tuckingham, the New Jersey clergyman who recently created a sensation by resigning the pastorate of a Baptist church because he could not accept some doctrines of the denomination, has become ticket agent for the Pennsylvania road at Pittsburg. Spanish Women and Their Dolls. A correspondent in Madrid writes: "Senora Valdes, wife of the celebrated Spanish novelist whose books are well known in England, naively asked me to take a photograph of her with her doll. It will seem curious to many persons to find women of mature age still interested in their dolls, but it is quite the usual thing in Spain." Too Much to Believe.

Cure for Rheumatism Bridgeport, Wash., Oct. 20th.—Rheumatism and kidney trouble seem to be the prevailing ailments in this territory and particularly in Douglas county. A remarkable and plainly sure cure has, however, recently been introduced. It is called Dodd's Kidney Pills and although but a short time on the market, it has already worked many wonderful cures. One of the most striking of these is that of Mr. John Higgins, who for a long time suffered with rheumatism and kidney trouble. The palms of these diseases had combined to make his life very miserable indeed, and he could get nothing to do him any good till he heard of this new remedy. He tells his experience with it in these words: "Dodd's Kidney Pills have done more for my rheumatism and kidney trouble than anything else I have ever used. There is more virtue in them than in any other medicine and I will always highly recommend them to all of my friends." Reindeer's Power of Eudurance.
