One cay Miss Hunt's accustomed haunts knew her no mor^v The big policeman on the corner of Printinjj-Hoisse Hc;u" rs niiosctl the trim little figure he had cfmie to know as it hurried by him on her daily rounds^ "the boys" in the office sud­ denly discovered that the quiet, serious-faced cirl reporter who had often beaten them on news had vanished, and even the city editor, who was not supposed to have any emotion of any sort, suddenly roused to the fact that he had lost one of his most alert and earnest aids and .act­ ually experienced a sensation which, in any other htrman being, might have been termed regret. Yes, Miss Hunt was gone. A little note of resignation found its way to the managing editor's desk--an hi­ de finite sort of billet-doux which gave no reason whatever- for the girl's sudden departure. "Little fool!" said the Awful Man, as he read the note, 'She has made the mistake of her life. Just got on h^r feet--work attracting attention everywhere--chief deilighted with her --and away she goes. I suppose to marry some worthless chap she will have to support." "Where's little Hunt?" everybody was asking. "The office is mighty lonely," said the sporting editor, cast­ ing a kindly glance towards a closed desk. "I fancy she's gone back to teaching school," said the^dramatic critic. "I wonder how she could tear herself away from me," thought the beauty ot the reportorial staff, who fancied Miss Hunt admired his blond bang. The most plausible reason for Miss Hunt's going away and the one gen­ erally accepted was that she had gone back West to marry a cowboy or the owner of the silver mine, and for weeks the exchange man hunted through the columns of marriage notices in the Western papers to sqe if he could And an announcement of her wedding. But "Little Hunt" had not gone away to be married nor to teach school. However, she had a reason for going--a reason she kept fast locked in her heart--while she made her plans for departure. It was one cold, winter night she decided to go.' She had been hard at work all day. She had written a new story which had actually made the city editor smile; she had interviewed a dancer who had invented a new terpsichorean wriggle; she had been to the bench show, and had done up the dogs and the dames in great shape and she had "faked" a story for the Sunday paper which was calcu­ lated to draw tears from the com­ positor who would set it up. Miss Hunt was tired. Nor did Jt seem to rest her when she found ^ note on her desk from the editor-in- chief telling her that her salary was to be raised. It was midnight when Miss Hunt let herself into the pretty little apart­ ment she, called home, tiung off her wraps and sat down before the open fire to think. These four or five rooms, furnished in the dainty fash­ ion so loved, by girls, were very dear to Miss Hunt- Every nook and cor­ ner, every belonging and furnishing, were a part of Tier very self. She had labored ceaselessly to have, furnish and keep this home. Her thoughts, her ideas, her individuality were here. The long tramps through all kinds of weather, the struggles, the disap­ pointments, the heartaches were here depicted, and all the triumphs, victo- ries'and successes bore their fruition in this tiny home. It was on that divan with its net of cushions that Miss Hunt Hung herself for a rattling good cry the day she lost the inter­ view with a famous and lickle actress. How much it had meant to her, how little to the capericious creature who so cooliy broke the engagement she had absolutely guaranteed! There was the piano at which Miss Hunt had poured out all the sacred sorrow ©f her heart througn her fingers. There was the dainty ribbon-bedecked rattan chair bought with the pro-; ceeds of her first assignment--ah! how everything in these rooms spoke to her of the light and shade, the loy and sorrow of her checkered existence in this heartless town where she had struggled and succeeded--in gaining a footing! But there were many other objects here which spoke as forcibly of an­ other life--a life which seemed far away now to Miss Hunt. In that pile of cushions yonder on the divan was one made of many tiny pieces of silk carefully pieced in old-fashioned shapes. There were stare and "rising suns" and blocks, joined in quaint and precise manner. Thfft cushion had come one Christmas morning with the inscription, "Just to let my little girl know that her mother does not forget her." The picture over t'hat piano!--when Miss Hunt looked at it there came always a big lump in her throat, for it used to hang over her piano in a Western home. The pretty little lamp on the table--ah! could she not now 6ee two ^ilvcrcd beads bent close to its light? * a pair of thin hands flattening over tfco bits of silk, * * "piecing blocks** for "my little girl" away in Uew York * » * another pair * * * sinewy, honest, fatherly hands, hold­ ing the newspaper Miss Hunt bad sent? Somewhere to-night they had been sitting, old, tired out with the bur­ den and heat of life, alone. They had worked, saved and denied them­ selves many luxuries so that their bright and ambitious daughter should have a chance in the world. They had placed no obstacles in her wav, *had .istened patiently when she told them of her intention to go forth and battle for success. Ah! they had be­ lieved in her, followed her with their prayer and never murmured at her long absence. She remembered tier first days in New York, when, friendless, ignor­ ant and unknown, she had gone about timidly, uncertainly. What a mount­ ain of strength their letters had been! Miss Hunt sighed. She had not written home as often of late as she should--she had been so busy-- and when one writes for a living one wearies at the sight of pen and inl^. But their letters, breathing love, tender faith and pride, had come .every week--no failure there. The fountain of parental love had re­ mained pure and fresh and strong. "Wc know you are busy," the last letter had said; "we hope you are happy and satisfied. It has occurred to us of late that your letters have a mournful tinge. Remember, daugh­ ter^. that if you ever • wo?irv of your useful life the old home stands al­ ways open -yes--longing for you!" Miss Huntstirrec the blazing fire impatiently. "Let me see," she said to herself--"where is it I have to go to-morrow? The slumming assign­ ment * * * how I dread it * * * remember, daughter * *. * I must see those committee women * * * if you ever.weary * * * and then there's that inter view, with the woman in the Tombs * * * horrible. I was in hopes they would never send me there again * * * the old home--stands--always open-- yes, and longing." Miss Hunt started up with a cry. The old home! Why was she not there with her patient, gentle' lonely father and mother? What was she doing here--here? "A useful life," they had said. Yes. she had led a useful, honest life. She had been conscientious and pains­ taking. She had persevered through formidable difficulties and a succession of heart-rending disappointments. She was rewarded now. People were talking of her clever, distinctive, original work. She was quoted, written about, pointed out as one of the brightest newspaper women in town. She had begun to dip into magazine work and one of the most conservative of periodicals had al­ ready published articles from her pen. But oh! life is brief and love is mighty. A great wave of homesick­ ness rolled over the girl as she thought of that little home--open always-- yes, longing for her; of those two dear faces ever set patiently towards the East, looking for-their sunlight- What were success, admiration, work, money, and independence com­ pared to this sudden rush of feeling that shook her soul? "What does it amount to after all?" over and over again she asked her sick heart. "How little it all means, ahyhow!" # * # * # #. "I wish," said the city editor a few days later, "I wish little Hunt had not cleared out. She would be the very one to work up the mystery Bur- rounding the death of that girl. Hang it all! Why did she go away?" Why? Ask that silver-haired couple away out in a little Westfern home, who would tell you with bated breath and a radiance like the light of Heaven on their faces of one evening when, as they sat by their lonely fire­ side reading over one of their little girl's "pieces," they heard a quick, resolute step ring up the garden walk. Then the latch clicked, the door swung open and self-contained, well- poised, energetic Miss Hunt, who had undauntedly faced every hardship and danger in her literary existence, be­ came as a little child. For with one big sob she flung her­ self on her knees between those weary watchers, and the thin, wrinkled hands met over their "little girl's" head. Miss Hunt had given tip journalism for the home "that was always open --yes, longing for her."--Edith Ses­ sions Tupper, in New York World. Just In Sn* llaby. Early Monday morning a timid knock was heard at the big, heavy door of the Fulton County JSil. Jailer Miller opened the door and a strong, rugged man came in. There was a haggard look of sad­ ness on the poor fellow's face. It was Jim Wesson, the 'moon­ shiner, who escaped from the Fuitoti County Jail a week ago to go home and see his sick baby. "I'm sorry. Mr. Miller, the poor fel­ low said in a broken voice. "I hope you and Cap'n Morrow don't care, hut 1 heard the baby--" He brushed a tear away and stopped a moment until his lips quit auivering so, aim went on; "I heard the baby was sick, and I thought about wife watching of it at home, and I just had to go. I was sorry, and I wrote you I'd come back, an hope you ain't mad." Capt. Miller did not--he could not utter a word of reproach to the heart-broken feilow. There was a touch of human nature about it that made the big, strong jailer feel more like weeping than scolding. "I'm glad you have come back, Jim," said he.--Atlanta Constitu­ tion.

He describes particularly his sensations in shooting a tunnel. He seemed to have taken leave of the sunlight forever and found himself reaching out instinctively for his companion's arm--for there were two men on the cow-catcher with him. One of them, a native well accus­ tomed to this mode of travel, related the unhappy adventure of another tourist with whom he had once rid­ den over the same route.

But her small and deeply wrinkled old face had a kindly look and her blue eyes were as bright and twink­ ling as the eyes of a child. She talked to every person near her on the train and the burden of it all was that she was "tromg back home." "Jist think of It," she said in her cracked, childish voice; "it'll be fifty years next May, the 10th day, sence I left ray old home in New Hamp­ shire an' I ain't never been back sence, an' here when I went away I reckoned sur£ I'd git back once in four or five years, anvhow, but I ain't never went until now, and it'll be fifty years the 10th day of next May.

The flowers arc plucked on a fine dav, just before they arc opened, .and taken to a damp, cool room, where they are placed in water, there to remain until the pack­ ing is done, two days later, perhaps. When this final stage of the labor is entered upon it continues without cessation, each worker having his own particular branch of the business, until tens of thousands of flowers are hidden in neat packages. At last all are packed; the horses move off with their load, and take a place in the line of vehicles which every highway is discharging on the pier: and ere the weary "flower farmers" have well finished their hardly earned breakfast, a shrill whistle announces the de­ parture of the steamer.

Thither flock the Siberian Chuckchees with reindeer skins and other pelts to sell, and the Esqui­ maux, for hundreds of miles around, with seal skins, seal oil, walrus oil, .ivory, and other goods. There is much dancing and feasting on these occasions, as well as trading. All the trading is done by barter, no sort of money being in circulation. At this fair, also, many wives afe bought.

The statement published over my name was made ten years ago, after long and mature investigation, and I lTlve never changed my mind to the facts then stated. At that time I said, aa a physi­ cian, that I believed Warner's Safe Cure was the best of all known preparations for the troubles it was advoc ated to cure, and l*eay so itUl. I know it is consid­ ered the proper thing for the medical profession to decry proprietary and other advertised articles; but why should they do so? As the late Dr. J. G.

Proprietary uiOulvuitn eliuuid lioi* be decried. The evidences of their value are overwhelming. I have seen patients recover from gravel,-inflamma­ tion of the bladder, and Rrlght's disease after using "Warner's Safe Cure, even when all other treatment had failed.
