IMPORTANT DECISION. Value of Limoges China Will Remaln; on Old Basis. New York, May By a decision of Judge Byron S. Waite of the United States general appralsers, just handed down, $100,000 worth of Limoges china imported by Haviland & Co. from their factery at Limoges, was admitted at a valuation which will sustain the pres- ent prices on French china all through ' this country. The decision is an im-' portant one. Claims had been made that Limoges china was undervalued at the customhouse and the apprais- ers, for the purpose of making a test, increased the valuation 720 per cent. The result was that importations im- mediately ceased and as this country was the chief customer for the product | the factories at Limoges, France, had to close down. The decision now rendered puts the valuation back practically on the old basis, so that importations will con- tinue and work at Limoges can be re- sumed. BRIEF BITS OF NEWS.

Noblefl Birth By Honore Willsie Copyright, 1908, by C. H. Sutcliffe Harvell lay In the bottom of his ca- noe. The canoe was tled a few feet out from the shore, and the river, deep, powerful and mysterious, tugged at the frail little craft. But Harvell did not heed the call. The darkness was deep, yet luminous, with the promise of an early moon, and the night wind that swept from shoreward was sweet and heavy with the fragrance of blooming rushes. Harvell stared upward to the stars, every sense as keenly alive to the beauty of the scene as if mind and heart had not been given over for days fo the problem which he had thrown himself into the canoe to solve. Final- Iy he stirred restlessly and said half aloud: “No. It's no use. I can’t do it. Shels too fine and thoroughbred for a great, common born chap like me to marry. . “MARGARET!” HE CRIED. And—no, even if she should be will- Ing, which is an insane thought on my part, I've no right to let her sacrifice herself. I'll stay until tomorrow and then plead business and disappear.” There was a little stir near the pler, as of the underbrush, then a woman’s volce, wonderfully clear and sweet: “Let’s sit here and wait for the moon to rise. The bungalow is so close and hot tonight.” Harvell caught hls breath. It was she. The voice that replied he recog- nized as that of his married sister, who was chaperoning the bungalow party. “You haven't been yourself at all, Mar- garet, during the entire week.” “I know it, Agnes.” The voice, with Its tired note, was very touching, and Harvell stirred restlessly. “I'm use- less to myself and every one else— every one else,” she repeated, as I to herself. “Oh, nonsense! Peggy, you are too fine and wholesome to talk so. I wish”— Agnes stopped as if not daring to go on. Margaret's voice continued: “I want you to help me to steal off tonight, Agnes. I want to go home, and I may Joint the Westburys and go to -Paris. The stage goes down at 9 and I nm going to catch it and steal off without a word to any one. Please, Agnes.”" “The perspiration started to Harvell's face as he strained his ears to catch Agnes’ reply. When it came he gasped: “Sometimes I think brother Paul is a fooll” Z Margaret’s voice was stern. “Agnes, I wish you would never mention Paul Harvell’s name to me. I"— But her volce was growing too faint for the man in the canoe to distinguish her ‘words, strive as' he would. “They’ve started back to the bunga- low,” he thought. “I am a cad to have listened even thus much. But, anyhow, I've lived up to the adage. 1 wonder ‘why I'm a fool”— Suddenly a realizing sense of Mar- garet's words came to him. She was golng away, going within an hour, and all that he had been feeling for a year was unsaid. For a moment his stern resolve of the early evening was forgotten. Then he sat erect, every muscle tense with stress of feeling. “It's better so,” he said bitterly. “It's my business to begin to forget, if she never wants to hear my name agaln.” He looked off toward the bank, then gave a startled exclamation. The pler had disappeared. His canoe was float- Ing rapidly down stream, while his paddle was safely locked in the boat- house. “I must be almost on the rapids,” he thought. With the thought the boat turned the bend that had shut off the sound of the falls and the canoe was in the whirlpool. To swim was out of the question, for in the river here was a mass of jagged rocks hidden in seeth- Ing water. Almost instantly the canoe was broken and capsized. Harvell, dazed and bruised, clung to a project- ing rock that had wrecked him. Fight as he would with all the force of his wonderful physique, he was dashed again and again upon the stones. Yet as he fought he was conscious of only one thought: “I must get there, I must have just one word with Margaret before she goes.” Then he gave a cry of remembrance. He, with the other men of the camping party, had been planning a footbridge meross the rapids. The week before ‘with infinite toil they had laid a single line of heavy planks on the projecting rocks from shore to shore. They were not yet fastened in - any way, thelr heavy welght serving to balance them fairly well on the stones. The dark ness, not yet lighted by the moon, con: cealed the planks, but clinging des- perately with one hand Harvell felt about with the other and by rare good Iuck found a plank, wet and slippery with spray, on a neighboring rock. ‘With infinite toil he raised himself out of thé water inch by {nch until at last be crouched on | the' great stone and felt minutes; stir to &m cream and sugar. and long life.

Then on hands and knees he started for the shore. Blinded by sprays, the planks half turning so that he could only pause, struggling with rigid mus- cles for balance, Harvell crawled along the foot wide planks. And with each pause came new discouragement. Mar- garet would surely be gone. In a panic of haste he slipped and fought his way, now half in the boiling water, half on the slimy rocks, now again on the plankway, gaining toward his goal foot by foot. At last one final spring, and he felt again the solid earth be- neath him. Without thought of his dripping clothing he started on his half mile run through the woods to the bungalow. “If the moon would only come up!” he thought as he tore his way through the heavy underbrush. “If—if only I am not too late! I am going to tell her anyhow, just to prove to her that I am & fool. I suppose— Oh, here is the stage road!” On up the sandy road, his clothes half dry with his rapid pace, then with the great edge of the summer moon peering over the top of the pines, he perceived a dim figure standing by the roadside. The figure shrank back a lit- tle at the sight of the man storming up the road. Harvell passed. “Margaret!” he cried. “Yes,” answered quietly the sweet;| clear voice that never failed to thrill him, “Margaret, why do you go?” Margaret, too surprised by his sudden | appearance to be startled by his knowl- edge of her movements, made no reply. “Because,” Harvell plunged on, “I annoy you with attention, because I hang on your every word and glance,; because I am an ordinary chap with ne ancestors, and you are the personifica- tlon of culture and delicacy—is that it, Margaret?” “You have no right to speak that way, Paul,” said Margaret, in her quiet voice. “No, but isn’t that true?’ persisted Harvell. The moyn was well above the treetops now. By its light be could sec the look of pride with which Mar- garet drew herself up. “So you think me a snob? You know me well indeed!” “Know you,” replied Harvell miser- ably—no, . I know nothing, except that I love you and that I can never hope to marry you.” There was a long pause. The sum- mer night was very fair around them. The girl before him seemed to Harvell a part of the wonder of the night. “You think, then,” said Margaret, “that I am too brainless to admire your fine mind, your splendid physique? Belng, you say, well bern, I must be a snob.” = Harvell drew a long breath. “Mar- garet,” he said, “will you marry me? Will you say yes, Marggret?” “Not until I have told you,” answered the low volce, “that I was born and bred in poverty in the mountains of Tennessee, that I am finely born only as every American is finely born, and I am proud of it.” The sound of stagecoach wheels came up the road, but already the two figures were far up the path that led to the bungalow.

I offered to wager some doctors in St. Paul, Minn., that one half of all sickness is caused by the stomach. After I assured them that my ‘ medi- cine did nothing but put the stomach inshape and they had spent a day list- ening to what people.who call- ed on me had to say, they had to €. H, POWELL. and tell me that for years they had been near the grave with Bright’s disease, or lung trouble, or kidney complaint and all man- ner of diseases and that the New Discovery had cured them. Of course these people were mistaken, it was nothing but their stomachs. As a matter of fact when the stomach gives out most everything else is thrown out of order too. When a person feels tired and dull and despondent, is loosing flesh and don’t sleep_well, has a poor memory, a bad taste in the mouth, a coated tongue, and other troubles he’s liable to believe a lot of things are the matter with him. Nine chances to one it’s his stomach. I've seen Cooper’s New Discovery bring back health to too many people in just this shape to believe anything else. Here’s a letter about it: ‘I suffered for a long time without knowing just what was the matter with me. I seldom felt like eating. I Jost greatly in wejght. My digestion was ex- extremely poor and when I did eat I invariably suffered afterward. 1 was con- stipated and frequently suffered from nerve racking, violent headaches. When I heard of what the Cooper remedies were doing for others I resolved to try them.’’ “‘Relief came with the first bottle.
