By R. M. L. I was n coquette. Many a lover's heart 1 had lacerated by refusing their offers of marriage, for 1 had lured thom on to a “declaration.” My last victim'a name was James Frazer, Ho was a tall, | awkward homely and ungainly man, but his heart was as truo as steel. T rospocted him highly, and I felt pained, when 1 witnessed -his anguish at my rejoction of him, But the fact was I had myself fallen in love with Elliott Tracy, city seasons, and has always given entire It is one of th: stalk cutters ever put on the market, satisfaction. first and to-day there is none superior. The Double Row Stalk Cutter We would request dealers to place their order i3 as well known as this. gallant, who had been unremitting in his dovotions to me. Jawmes Frazer warned me against Elliott, but I charged him with jealousy, and took his warning as an insult. In afew days after Elliott and I wero engaged, and my dream of romantic love seomed to be in a fair way of realiza- tion. I had a week of happinoss, Many have not 80 wmuch in a lifetime. Many awake from the bright, short dream to find themselves in life-long darkness and bondage from whieh there is no escape. Thank God I was not to be so miserable as they! * There was an equostrian party winding through our grand old woods and quiet country roads. Elliott and I led the cavaleade, I rode my own beautiful Brown Bess. Elliott was mounted on the hansome black horse that had been sent him from the city. Following us was & bevy of merry girls and their caval- iers, and among them, tall, awkward and silent; rode James Frazer. His pre- sence had marred all the pleasure of my ride, and I was glad to be in ad- vance of them all that I might not see him. And 80 we rode on ever the soft, sandy road that echoed not the tramp of our horses’ hoofs, and I listened well pleased to the low but animated words of Elliott Tracy, who wished himself a knight and me a fair layde of the olden time, that h» might go forth to do battle for me, and compel all men to recognizoe the claims of his peerless love. Very elo- quently he sgoku of the mspm\tmn of love, of the brave decds and perilous ex- ploits it had prompted, wishing again and again that he might thus proclaim and maintain his love before the world. It pleased me to listen to this, and to believe it sincere, though I surely had no wish to put my lover to such a test. A shot rang though the still woods, and a wounded bird, darting past, flut- tered and fell at the feet of Brown Bess. With a bound and a spring, that nearly unseated me, she was off. Mruf,glmg to regain my seat, I had no power to_ rostrain her, and even as she with us early, as the demand for stalk cutters will be larger than ever before. AMONG OUR GOODS ARE THE FOLLOWING : N C. Thompson S Plows, Reapers, Cultivators, Mowers, Hay Rakes, Harrows, Hay Tedder, Stalk Cutter, New Tongueless Cultivator. THIS IS A CUT OF THE N. C.

The record which it has made in the past bears us out in the above belief. LINE OF grew upon her. I could only cling breathless to the mane and bridle and wonder helplessly where this mad gallop was to end. She sworved from the pass- ing wagon, and turned in to a cart track that led to the river. In the sudden movement the reins had been torn from my hands, and I could not regain them. I clung to the mane and closed my e) u that I might not behold the fate that awaited me. How sweet was life in thone precious moments that I thought my t! How all its joys, is aflections, its last crowning love rose up before me! 1 thought of the pang that would rend Elliott’s heart as he saw me lying man- gled and dead, and then the thought would come if he were pursuing and try to save me, even, as he had said, at the risk of life and limb, I remembered no more, I felt a sud- den shock, a fearful rushing through the air, and knew no more until days after- ward, 1 woke to a faint, weak semblance of life, in my room at home, I never saw Elliot Tracy again, The last words 1 ever heard from his lips were those of knightly daring. ~The last act of his life, in connection “with mine, was to follow in the train of frightened youths who rode after me, to contem- plaze the disaster from afar, and as soon as he saw me lif‘ed from the shallow bed of the river into which I had been thrown when my frightened horso stopped sud- denly on its bunk to ride hastily back to the village, 1T' hat cvening he sent to make inquiries, and learning that I was severely but, it was hoped, not fatally /n- jured, he thenceforth contented nimgelf with such tidings of my condition and im- provement as could be gained from vil- lage rumor. At last it was known that I would never recover entirely from the effects of my injury, and that very day Elliott Tracy departed suddenly from the vil- lage. Ho made no attempt to sce me, nor sent me any farewell, When 1 was once more abroad, and beginning, though with much alloyed bitterness, to learn the lesson of patience and resignation that awaited me, I received a letter from him, in which he merely said that he presumed my own judgement had taught me that, in iy altered circumstances, our engagement must be at an end, but to satisfy his own sense of honor (his honor!) he wrote to say that, while en- tertaining the highest respect for me, he desired a formal renunciation of my claim, Writing at the lmtmm of this letter: “‘Let it be as you wish,” I returned it to hiw it once, and thus ended my brief dream of # romantic love, I had heard ere this of Elliott Tracy’s cowardly conduct on that day, sud now T first bothought me to inquire who had rescued me from imminent death, And then I learned that James Fra- his arm already broken by the jerk th which Brown Bess tore away from him as he caught at her bridle, had rid den after me and been the first to lift me from the water, Many times daily he made inquiries for we, His had been the hand that sent the rare flowers, and decked my Toom.

We had *‘bois d’are blocks,"” sung in our ears in Kansas City until tho ring got the peoplo asleep, and then they put the cedar blocks. Tho street com- missioner says, however, that gum block paving in St. Louis as they have iton “gome of the down town streets is about played out.” But these fellows aro like- wise cute about it, and propose to put in concrete foundation. That argument seems to catch the unthinking. Juat let us look at it for a moment from the standpoint of common sense, Tho first requisite of a rondway of any kind is, that it should be water proof. Concrote un- der a wood pavement makes it water proof at the bottom instead of at the topy or a concrete foundation isa basin to and rot. Again a mudwn{ should bo elastic to prevent too rapid wear. The concrete is a solid rock under wood, and any concussion that comes from heavy or rapid transit by wagons or horses foct is folt by tho yielding material, henco the wood 18 worn faster with cencroto under than by tho old mothod as anybody can see whon one of our so constructed wood pavements is taken up. Sixth streot only a year down, has to be ropaired al- ready. The facts are that we build them to catch water to help rot them out fast, and_wo_put them where they cannot yield, to bo battered out by trafic. That is just what we are doing in tho way of wood pavements in Kansas City. But as all the hungry can’t get cedar block con- tracts, we suggest that some fellow start tgum’ blocks.” That sounds new and will catch on, as the boys say. — ‘When opiates fail,then try Samaritan Nervine, 1t's a certain cure for all ner- vous ailments.
