InZ Sold WJ MEAK that you cant pot yourself out to «tve your nTother's brother a night's lodg­ ing?" -said Caleb Chev- erel, bitterly. The March wind, bearing dust and grit and bits of flying paper on Its restless wings, came whistling around the corner, lifting the old man's" faded com­ f o r t e r ' s e n d s a n d turning his blue nose a shade bluer -still, while Mrs. Larking, his eldest niece, stood in her doorway, filling up the aperture with her ample person in-such a way as to suggest the familiar legend, "No admittance!" Mrs. Larkins was stout and bloom­ ing and cherry-cheeked, dressed in sub­ stantial alpaca, with gay gold brooch and eardrdps, which bespoke anything but abject poverty. Uncle Caleb was thin and meager and shabbily dressed, with glossy seams in his overcoat and finger-ends protruding from his worn gloves like ancient rose­ buds coming out of their calyx. "I'm very sorry," said Mrs. Larkins, stiffly; "but we have but one spare room, and that is at present occupied. Of course I should be glad to do aU I could for you, but "" "I understand, I understand," said Uncle Cheverel, turning coldly away. "I'll go to my niece Jenny. I wish you a very good evening." Mrs. Larkins closed the door With a sigh of very evident relief. *T dare say Jenny will take care of him," she said philosophically. "Jenny has a smaller family than I have. But I don't see why he came up to Londoa instead of staying peaceably down in Tortoise Hollow, where he belongs." Mrs. Jenny Eldertop, Mr. Cheverers youngest niece, had a smaller family than her sister B«becca, hat then she had a smaller income as welL She had just finished a vigorous day's cleaning when Uncle Caleb was announced. "Oh, drat the man!" said Mrs. E9- dertop, wringing her parboiled fingers out of a basin of steaming soapsuds. "What sends him here, just a©w of aH the times in the world?" And she went downstairs ungra­ ciously enough to the street dooc, where her husband was weleosalag the old stranger. "Come in, UncLe Cheverel--eome in?" said honest Will Eldertop. all upside down here--we mostly aire, mow that the spring cleaaing is g»!sg on. But there's room for yon if yon dotf t mind the children and their noise a&d a little smell of whitewash ia the spare room." •,(, Mrs. Eldertop"s welcome was by a® means so cordiaJL She looked, to iw a common expression, "vinegar and darn­ ing needles" at the visitor, while in her inmost soul she calculated the proba­ bility of the cold boiled hasp and tur­ nips holding out for once iuore at siq»- per. "Come, Jenny, don't scowl so," said Mr. Eldertop, when Uncle Caleb had gope upstairs to wash his hands and face. "Ain't he your uncle?" "A good for nothing old vagabond," said Mrs. Eldertop, acidly, ""without a half-penny laid up ahead." "For all that he's your guest," said her husband, "and you're bound to be civil to him. And here's his overcoat now, with a zig-zag rent in it. Just mend It while you're waiting for, the kettle to boil." - "I won't!" said Mrs. Eldertop. "All right," retorted her lord and master. "Then I'll take it next door to Alexia Allen to mend." Now, Miss Allen, the tailoress, who lived in the adjoining house, was pret­ ty and buxom to look upon, and Mrs. Eldertop had nursed comfortably a Jealousy of her for the la^t four years. . "You'll do no such thing," sald^Jen- ny, tartly. "Hand it here." And she threaded a needle with a black silk and thrust her finger into a tbimble, very much as a determined crusader of old might have donned •word and shield lor some encounter with the Moslem. "What's that?" said Mr. Eldertop; for a folded paper fell from the pocket of the garment as his wife turned it upside down. "Some tomfoolery or the other;" an­ swered Mrs. Jenny, brusquely. "I fancy you're mistaken," said Mr. Eldertop. "It's :the rough draft &£• a will." "But he's got IUQthing to leave," shrieked Mrs. EMertop. -"I'm not so certain of that," retorted Will. "Just look bene, Jenny! 'I give aod bequeath to my two beloved uieees, in equally divided parts, the sum of £10,000 poun<le, at present in­ vested in consols, and- " «n!"' -said Mrs. Eldertop, breath­ lessly. "Read the rest." "Theae is no rest." said her husband. "That's the end.of the paper. It's only a rough draft. I" tell you. And now, what's your opinion of Uncle Cheverel's fortunes?" "He's been a miser all along," said Mrs. Eldertop. her face growing ra­ diant. "Making up poor mouths and traveling around the country with all this money in the funds. A regular old character--just like those one reads about in novels. Put it back, Will--put It back. We've no business to be pry­ ing into Uncle Caleb's secrets; but what a blessing it is he came here, in­ stead of stopping at Rebecca Larkins'." And when Uncle Caleb Cheverel came downstairs he was surprised at the sweet smiles with which his niece Jen­ ny welcomed him. "Been mending my coat, eh?" said Usde Cheverel "Thaok'es kindly. Jenny. I caught it on a nail yesterday, and I Was calculating to sew it up my­ self, when I could borrer a needle and thread." "I'm glad to be of use, Uncle Caleb," beamed Mrs. Eldertop; "Johnny, put qp your cap and run to the grocers for a smoked mackerel for your uncle's breakfast. I hope you found your room comfortable. Uncle Caleb?" , "Before she slept that night Mrs. El­ dertop put on her bonnet and shawl and ran round to "the Larkins' mansion to Impart her wonderful tidings to Sister Rebecca. "You don't say so!" cried out the as­ tonished matron. ^ "Gospel truth!"- said Mrs. Eldertop. "I saw it with my own eyes." "He must come here," said Mrs. Lar- klns, resolutely. "Not If I know It," said Mrs. Elder- top. "He's my guest, and my guest he shall remain." "But if I'm to share equally with you," said Mrs. Larkins, "I ought to show him some attention, the dear, g e n e r o u s - h e a r t e d o l d m a n ' "Lest he should alter hig . wi0,A shrewdly remarked Sister Jeijriy. "iTou always were a worldly creature, Becky!" "No more than yourself!" said Mrs. Larkins. bristling up. "But it's my family I am thinking of, Jenny. I'll tell you what--I'll come round and see him to-morrow." "But don't you breathe a syllable about the will," said Mrs. Eldertop, in a mysterious whisper. "Oh, not for worlds!" said Mrs. Lar­ kins, fervently. During the next week Uncle Cheverel was overwhelmed With civilities. On Thursday a new suit of clothes arrived, with Mrs. Larkins' best 1OT« and com­ pliments. On Friday Mrs. Larkins came with an open barouche to take dear Uncle Caleb for a drive in the park. And on Saturday Mrs. Eldertop burst Into tears and declared she should never be happy again if her mother's only brother didn't pledge himself then and there to make his fu­ ture home with herself a~nd Will. Uncle Caleb looked a little puzzled. "Well," said be, "if you really make a point of It--but I wns Intending to meet Cousin John at Gravesend." "Dear anc]p, promise me to stay here always," crijed Mrs. EMertoo, hysteri- PEACE PACT SIGNED. LABORS OF COMMISSIONERS ARE AT AN END. "Jtrst as you say, Niece Jenny," ab­ sented the old.aaan, complacently. Mrs. Eldertop felt that she had car- ried ber point. But when Mr. and Mrs. Larkins came on Sunday afternoon to press a similar petition Uncle Caleb opened his eyes. ""My importance seems to have "gone np" fn the-market," he observed, quaint­ ly. "I -never was in such demand among my relatives before. But I can't be In two places at once' that's plain." A-nd 'he decided to remain with Mrs. Eldertop, greatly to the indignation Of the Larkins fninri$v ^^itfd^-not-^hesi- itateto hint boldly at unfair advantages •and undue Impartiality.

And lie produced the "rough 1 draft •and bestowed it on Johnny. "One side's written on," s*itl he, "and t'other ain't. It was lyingon the floor .in Mr. Watkns' law office, when I stepped in to see if Joseph Hall was employed there as porter still. 'An.old .cihuin of mine Hall was in Tortoise Hol­ low.

Everything -eoiues in use once in seven years, they say, and this is just right for .little Johnny's kite tail." Mrs. Latkins looked at MFS. Eldertop. Mr. Eldertop stared into the-spectacled eyes of Mr. Larkins. Uncle Caleb chuckled benevolently as little Johnny skipped away with the piece of paper which had been freight ed with «.oeh a wealth of anticipation. The Larkfrwses took leave without any unnecessary formula af adieux, and Mrs. Eldertop took occasion to tell Uncle Caleb that perhaps he had better prosecute his original design of the Gravesend visit. "Because We'ce expecting company to-morrow," said -she, "and our best room will be wanted for a while. And, she added within herself, "I will take good care it sha'a'it !be .empty again just at present." So Uncle Caleb C3he<recel want to Gravesend, where Cousin John was as poor and as warm-hearted as himself, and he was never invited to return to London again. Five years later Uncle Caleb departed this life and left behind him £2Q,000 In consols--willed to John Clark. To his "dear nieces," Jane Eldertop and Be- becca Larkins, he left £5 eaeh to pay for the trouble he put them to when he visited them. To s&y that there was joy in the nieces' households when, the will was read would be to say what is false, for if the old man could have gn&ssed at all the unkind things that would be uttered regarding him I doubt 4fhe would have left tiiem even £5 each. --Chicago Times-Herald.

The treaty of peace between the United States and Spain was signed in Paris Sat­ urday evening. The momentous scene in the historic drama of the nations was im­ pressively simple in all of its details. A group of gentlemen gathered about a ta­ ble in a room overlooking the Seitae and signed their names to duplicate copies of a document which transfers the colonial em­ pire of one of the oldest countries of Eu­ rope to the youngest adult member of the family of nations. There was no ceremony expressive of the momentous significance of'the occa­ sion. The plain, undramatic record may be set down in a few words. It was the twenty-second session of the peace com­ mission, whose labors had covered just ten weeks. Its members gathered tardily at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Before all of them had assembled, in addition to the us­ ual thirteen, several of the attaches of each commission Came to witness the exe­ cution of the treaty drafted under so many difficulties. It was known that the engrossing of the treaty was still unfinished, but the com­ missioners, after being photographed with doubtful success, occupied an hour in re­ vising and signing each protocol,which is the diplomatic name for such records. Then, as it was known that the engross­ ing was still unfinished, half an hoiu* was spent in chatting and taking tea. About 5:30 p. m. word came that at least an hour more would be necessary to complete the Spanish copy of the treaty, so a recess was taken until 7:30 o'clock. It was nearly 8 o'clock before the impos­ ing parchments were finally placed upon the large table around which the commis­ sioners sat in their usual order, the Span­ iards on one side and the Americans on the other. Each copy of the document consisted of seventeen articles, in both English and Spanish, ia parallel columns. Interpreter Fergusoa read aloud the text of the treaty. The only difference between the two copies was that the Spanish copy, in the usual preamble, set furth first the names of the Spanish commissioners, with a list of their titles and the past aud present offices they have held following each, and then the names of the American commis- «Umers. The American copy gave first the plain n£mos of William R. Day. Cushman K. Davis, William P. Fr.ve, George Gray and Whitelaw Reid, describing them sim­ ply as "citizens of the United States." Then followed the names of the Spanish commissioners, with all of their titles and offices. The reading of the treaty was interrupt* ed only once, when it was found that in the article about the release of the Span­ ish prisoners who are to be returned to their homes, the English version used the words, "Cuba, Porto Rico and the Island of Guam and the Philippines." The Span­ ish translation had it "or" instead of "of,™ and there was a slight delay while this trifling inaccuracy was corrected. The American copy was handed to Judge Day and the Spanish copy to Seaor Montero Rios, and the two presidents signed their names simultaneously. The two treaties were then passed quickly down the respective sides of the table. Senator Davis followed Judge Day, and Senators Frye and Gray and Mr. Reid signed afterward in the order named. Af­ ter Mr. Reid had signed Mr. Ferguso® took the American copy to Senor Rios brought back the Spanish copy to Judge Day, when the documents were passed down the table again, the Americans sign ing beneath the English version and the Spaniards beneath the Spanish version in each case. The secretaries then »j*\nnre£ the seals and each commissioner affixed bne opposite his name. Th*.- whole «pera tion occupied only about fifteen minutes. Senor Montero Rios said a few words expressive of his personal esteem of the Americans and thanks on behalf of his colleagues for the Americans' roarbesy, and J udge Day responded in two or three cordial sentences. The commissioners then shook hands and the work of the Spanish-American peace conference was finished. CUBAN HERO IS DEAD.

Calixto Garcia, who escaped death in many battles in Cuba, and upon whose head Spain often placed a price, died ia Washington Sunday nioruiug. He was one of the Cuban delegates who came to Washington to discuss plans for the fu­ ture government of the island. Gen. Garcia was one of the great lead­ ers of the Cubans in their rebellion. Ia 1896 he was placed in command of the army of the east, and such was his reputa­ tion as a soldier and such his success that the province of Santiago de Cuba was re­ garded as the best place for the landing of .American troops even before Admiral Cervera took his fleet into the harbor of Santiago and made it necessary that the iPoint of attack should be there. "The old soldier" took a severe cold When he came north, and this developed into pneumonia. He lived to learn that the peace treaty had been signed. The Cubans in Washington >regard his death as an irreparable loss. He was most friendly to the Thiited States, and believed that Cuba would ultimately seek annexation as -the best method of securing a liberal and stable government on the basis of home rule. iGen. Garcia's death was feared, but was unexpected. For forty years he had Jived an existence which inured his con­ stitution to every hardship of the field and camp. He had passed through battles and plagues, faced bullets and fevers, and when he was attacked .by a cold while stopping in New York he laughed at the physicians who warned him of the danger attending a neglected cough.

The Danger of Using Up the Viaible Supply. , No one who is at all familiar with existing conditions in the lumber trade can fail to note that there is already considerable complaint of the dearth of desirable oak. Both in quartered and plain stock fairly good lots of dry oak are notably scarce. The leading job­ bers have had their buyers out for months picking up anything good they could find, and the result is that a very large proportion of the oak on sticks has already passed into second hands and is held by' the present owners for distribution to consumers. Mill men in the south are cutting it all the time, but they do not have to wait until it is dry, or even partly dry, before selling. If they choose to do so, they can usual­ ly negotiate for it in advance of the sawing, and ou terms that a few years ago would have been regarded as ex­ tremely liberal. Oak is, perhaps, the most readily salable of any saw mill product, which fact indicates that It is now, and is believed likely to be here­ after, relatively a scarce article. While htere is no occasion far alarm as to the present adequacy of the oak supply, It is a question if the time has not come when serious consideration should be given to the possibility, not to say probability, that in the not dis­ tant future oak may become one of the scarce woods.--St. Louis Lumberman.

CAPITOL BUILDING, SALEM, ORECON. A Letter from the Executive Office of Oregon. Pe-rn-Ba is known from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Letters df congratulation and commendation testifying to the merits of Pe-ru-na aa a catarrh remedy are pouring in from every State In the Union. Dr. Hartman Is receiving hundreds of such let­ ters daily. AH cesses write these letters, from the highest, to the lowest. The outdoor lSb*>rer, thtf. Indoor artisan, the cierk, the editor, the-statesman, the preacher--all agree that Pe-ru-na Is the catarrh remedy of the age. The stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh as their great­ est enemy, are especially enthusiastic In their praise and testimony. Any man who wishes perfect health must be entirely free from catarrh. Catarrh Is well-nigh universal; almost omnipresent. Pe-ru-na is the only absolute safeguard known. A cold Is the beginning of catarrh. To prevent colds, to cure colds. Is to cheat catarrh out of its victims. Pe-ru-na not only cures catarrh, bnt prevents. Every household should be supplied with this great remedy for coughs, colds and so forth. The Governor of Orejron Is »n ardent ad­ mirer of Pe-ru-nn. He keeps It continually in the house. In a recent letter to Dr. man he says: STAT* or ORBOOM, EXECUTIVE UKPABTBBNT. SALEM. May 9, 1898. The Pe-ru-na Medicine Co.. Cojumbu^, Ohio: Dear Sirs--I have had occasion to use youc Pe-ru-na medicine in my family for cnldsl and it proved, to be an excellent remedy. 1_ have not had occasion to use it for other ail- 1 ments. Yours very truly, W. M. Lord. It will be noticed that the Governor says he iias not had occasion to use Pe-ru-na for^ other ailments. The reason for this is, most other ailments begin with a cold. Using I*e-ru-na to promptly cure colds* he protects V* < 1 • his family against other ailments. This is exactly what every other family in the Uni- &§* % ted States should do. Keep Pe-ru-na in the house. Use It for coughs, colds, la grippe, and other climatic affections of winter, and - there will be no other ailments in the house. •: V • Such families should provide themselves ? with a copy of Dr. Hartman's free book, "'f§ entitled "Winter Catarrh."
