One of the most attractive of re­ cent Japanese romances is "Daugh ters of Nijo," by the popular young author, Onoto Watanna. The plot turns on the marvelous resemblance between two step-sisters, the one a royal princess, the other supposedly the daughter of middle-class people but really also a "Daughter of Nijo" Nijo being a prince of Japan. By an odd fatality each of the sisters loves the man to whom the other has been betrothed by the relatives. The sis­ ters meet for the first time and dis­ cover this. The happy inspiration occurs to them to exchange clothes and placcs, but they are careful not to inform their respective lovers until after a good many things have hap pened. The story is ajive with genu ine charm and written in excellent English. CHILD TEACHES A BISHOP. Lasting Impression Made by' Little Girl's Remark. The newly elected Methodist bish­ op, Dr. William Burt of Rome, is noted for his cheerful and placid manner. Nothing ever ruffles him. He is never heard to complain. A Clergyman complimented Dr. Burt one day on his good disposition. "You never growl about anything," he said. "No matter what kind of a meal is set before you, you eat it cheerfully. If you are feeling poorly you conceal it. How did you manage to acquire auch a fine habit of good humored tolerance and resignation?' "Maybe the remark of a child that I once overheard helped me to learn •to complain and grumble as little as possible," said Dr. Burt. "While was studying at Wilbraham Acadcmy I spent a few days with this child's father--a good man, but a chronic growler. We were all Bitting in the parlor one night when the question of food arose. The child, a little girl, told cleverly what each member of the household liked best. Finally it came to the father's turn to be des­ cribed. " 'And what do I like, Nancy?' he said, laughing. " 'You,' said the little girl slowly-- 'well you like' 'most anything we haven't got.'" FOOD FACTS What an M. D. Learned. A prominent physician of Rome, Georgia, went through a food experi­ ence which he makes public: "It was my own experience that first led me to advocate Grape-Nuts food and I also know from having pre­ scribed it to convalescents and other weak patients that the food is a won­ derful rebuilder and restorer of nerve and brain tissue, as well as muscle. It improves the digestion and sick patients always gain just as I did in strength and weight very rapidly. "I was in puch a low state that I had to give up my work entirely and go to the mountains of this state, but two months there did not improve me; in fact 1 was not quite as well as when 1 left home. My food abeolutely re­ fused to sustain me and it became plain thfct I must change, then I began to use Grape-Nuts food and in two Weeks I could walk a mile without the least fatigue and in five weeks re­ turned to my home and practice, tak­ ing up hard work again. Since that time I have felt s well and strong as I ever did in my life. "As a physician who seeks to help all sufferers I consider it a duty to niake these facts public."

CHAPTER I--Continued. "They were Fridtjof's." She spoke his name very softly. "I found them hanging on the chamber wall. In the night the men began to entertain themselves with singing, and it could be heard that they were getting drunk. I waited till they were all still, and then I crept into the women's ro&m, and found the bondmaids huddled in their bed6. I got through the guard­ room, where the Englishmen were snoring so loud that they would not have heard if I had stamped. In a niche in the wall outside I found Aim- stein, the steward, hiding, full of fear. I made him follow me out of the postern and around to the gate where --my father--and--Fridtjof--" Her voice broke, but she struggled On. "The English dogs had left them there, and Fridtjof's sword was in his hand. There was a smile on his lips. I made Almstein dig t^'o graves. I kissed Fridtjof's mouth--and--and I l®id--my father's cloak--over--over his--face." It was useless trying to go on; a deep sob shut off her voice and threat­ ened to rend her when she tried to hold it back. Sister Wynfreda strove with gentle arms to draw her down upon her breast. "Suffer the tears to come, my daugh­ ter," she urged her tenderly, "or sooner or later they must." "They shall not!" Randalln cried brokenly. "They shall not! Am I a weak-minded English woman that I should shed tears because my kindred are murdered? I will shed blood to avenge them; that is befitting a Danish girl. I will not weep--as though there were shame to wash out! I will not weep." The older woman shrank a little. To ears attuned to the silence of the grave, such an outburst was little less than terrifying; she was at a loss allured--else had the Pagans dragged me with them. Was I a coward? Randalin's eyes were very wide. "It seems to me that you were simple- minded," she breathed. "Why did you not thrust the iron in his face?" But Sister Wynfreda's expression changed so strangely that the girl foresaw an attack along another line, and hastened to forestall it. "It is not worth while to tell me further about the matter. Do you not see that it is by no means the same? I shall be a Danish woman among Danish men. I shall not be a captive, to be made a drudge of a^d beaten. I shall be with my own people, my own king. Let us end this! talk. Give me the bread and let me' go. The sun is getting high." She glanced at it as she spoke, and found it so much higher than 6be realized that her baste increased. Clutching at her belt, her arm, her cloak, the nun strove desperately to detain her. "Randalin! Listen! Alas! how you grieve me by talking after this manner! Wait, you do not un­ derstand. It is not their cruelty I fear for you. Child, listen! It is not their blows--" But Randalin had wrenched herself free. "Oh, fear, fear, fear!" she cried impatiently. "Fear your enemies; fear your friends; fear your shadow! Old women are afraid of everything! No, no, do not look at me like that; I do not mean to behave badly toward you, but it will become a great mis­ fortune to me if I am hindered; it will, in truth. See now; I will kiss you--here--where your cheek is soft­ est. I cannot allow you to take hold of my cloak again. There! Now lay your hands upon my head, as you do with the children when you wish them good luck." Because there was nothing else to do, and because the thought of doing * If own faijoished condition so sharply that her answer was unnecessarily petulant, and the man disappeared before the question could even be put to him. Two miles more, and nothing was in front of her. but a flock of rag­ ged blackbirds Circling over a tram­ pled wheat-field. Already the sun's round chin rested on the crest of the farthest hill. In desperation, she turned aside and galloped after a mailed horseman who was trotting down a clover-sweet lane with a rat­ tle and clank that frightened the rob­ ins from the hedges. He reined in with a guffaw when he saw what met- tJe of blade it was that had acosted him. "Is it your intention to join the army?' he inquired. "Canute will con­ sider himself in great luck." "I am desirous to--to tell him some­ thing," Red Cloak faltered. His grin vanishing, the man lean­ ed forward alertly. "It is war news? Of Edric Jarl's men?" Before her tongue could move. Ran­ dalin's surprised face had answered. The warrior smote his thig^ resound­ ingly. "You will be able to tell us tidings we wish to know. Since the fight this morning we have been allowed to do no more than growl at the English dogs across the plain, because it was held unadvlsable to make an onset until the Jarl's men should increase our strength. It is to be hoped that they are not far behind?" "You make a mistake," Randalin be­ gan hesitatingly. "My news does not concern thp doings of Edric Jarl. but the actions of his man Norman--" A blow across her lips silenced her. "Hold your tons^ie until you come in to the Chief," ime man admonished her, with good\h^mored severity. "Have you not leaTr^d tka4-~babbling turns to ill,, you sprouting twig? And waste no more time upon the road, either. Yonder is your shortest way --up that lane between the barley. When you come to a burned barn, do you turn to the left and ride straight toward the woods; it should happen that an old beech stock stands where you come out. Take then the path that winds up-hill, and it will bring you to the war booths before you can open your foolish mouth thrice. Trolls! what a cub to send a message by! But get along, now; you will suffer from their temper if they think it likely that you have kept them wait­ ing." He gave the horse a stinging slap upon the flank, that sent him for­ ward like a shaft from a bow. (To be continued.) 'Do you know who I am?" she was asking urgently. flow to soothe thfi gisl. To gain ai this gave her some comfort, Sister Look in each pkg. for the famous . , . litu* took, "The Rood to WeUrUte." UWr* t* 4«stro>r fto beauty tfeat respite, she stole away and renewed wounded man's bandages. After a moment Randalin rose and flowed, buckling her cloak as she went. "Since I am become this man's lord, I think it is right for me to see how he fares before I leave him," she ex­ plained. "Before you leave him?" The form in the faded robes turned inquiringly, toward the erect young figure in its brave scarlet cloak. "What is it you say, my child?" . But Randalin was bending low over the green touch. "Do you know who I am?" she was asking urgently of.the woodward. "Fix your eyes on mc and try to gather together your wits." Slowly the man's wandering gaze focused itself; a silly laugh welled up in his throat. "It would be no strange wonder if I did not." he chuckled. "Odin has changed you greatly; your face was never so beautiful. But this once you cannot trick me, Fridtjof Frodesson." There came a time when this mis­ take was a source of some comfort to Randalin, Frode's daughter; but now she stirred Impatiently. Sister Wynfreda's hand fell upon the girl's arm. "Disquiet yourself no further," she whispered. "It is use­ less and to no end. Come this way, where he cannot hear our voices, and tell me what moves you to speak of leaving. Is it not your intention. to creep in with us?" As she yielded reluctantly to the pressure, Randalin even showed sur­ prise at the question. "By no means. My errand hither was only to ask. for bread. I go direct to the Danish camp to get justice from King Ca­ nute." The nun reached put and caught the gay cloak, gasping. "The Danish camp? Better you thrust yourself into a den of ravenous beasts. You know not what you say." Offense stiffened the figure under the cloak. ,**It is you who <.o not know. NoWv, as always, you think about Canute what ilying English mouths have told of hitfa. I know him from my father's lips./No man on the island is so true as,M£ or so generous to those who ask of him. He is the highest-minded mall in the world." "My daughter, my daughter, shake off this sleep of your wits, I entreat you! The men you are trusting in are dreams which you have dreamed in the safety of your father's arms. They among whom you are going are barbarians--yea, devils! It were even better had you married the son of Leofwlne. Think you I know noth­ ing of the Pagans, that you set my words at naught? Who, but Danish- men laid low these walls and slaugh­ tered the holy nuns as lambs are torn by wild beasts? Have I not seen their ho-rid wickedness? You thick a nun a «>oward? Know yOU how these scars cai^e on my face? Three times, with my own hands, I pressed a red-hot Wynfreda complied. "God guard you, my fledgeling," she whispered over and over. "My pray­ ers be as a wall around you. My love go A-ith you as a warm hand in your loneliness. God keep you in safety, my most beloved daughter!" CHAPTER II. Where War-Dogs Kennel. This morning there were but few travelers upon the Watling street. South of the highway the land was held by English farmers, who would naturally remain under cover while a Danish host was in the neighbor­ hood; while north of the. great divid­ ing line lay Danish freeholds whose masters might be equally likely to see the prudence of being in their watch- towers when the English allies were passing. Barred across by the shad­ ows of its mighty trees, the great road stretched away mile after mile in cool emptiness. At rare, intervals, a mount­ ed messenger clattered over the stones, his hand upon his weapon, his eyes rolling sharply in a keen watch of the thicket on either side. Still more rarely, foraging parties swept through the morning stillness, lowing cows pricked to a sharp trot before tbeln. and squawking fow|s slung over their broad shoulders. On they c'ameT^WheiJ they caught sight of a sprig of a Bey drawn up be­ side the way with his hand resting sternly on his knife, they sent up a shout of boisterous merriment. The blood roared so loudly in Randalin's ears that she could not understand what they said. She jerked her horse's head toward the trees and drove her spur deep into his side. Only as he leaped forward and they swept past her, shouting, did the words reach home. "Look at the warrior, comrades!" "Hail, Berserker!" "Scamper, cub, or your nurse will catch you!" "Tie, some of your hair on your chin, little one!" As the sound of hoof-beats died away, and the nag settled back to his steady jog-trot, the girl unclenched her bands and drew a long breath. "Though it seems a strange wonder that they should not know me for a woman, I think I need give myself no further uneasiness. It must be that I am very like Fridtjof in looks. It may be that It would not be unadvis- able now for me to ask advice of the next person how I can come to the camp." The asking had become 'at matter of necessity by the time she found any one capable of answering the question. Three foreign merchants whom she overtook near noon could give her no information, and she cov­ ered the next five miles without see­ ing a living creature; tfien it was only a beggar, who crawled out of the bushes to offer to sell the child be­ side him for a crust of bread. The petition brought back to Asadalin tor GOT EVEN ON CONSTABLE. Mississippi Justice Bound to Have His Dignity Sustained. "This attack on Gen. Bristow for the disclosures in the special postal report reminds me of a justice of the peace of Mississippi who was hear­ ing a case tried by a lawyer named George Smith and another named Brown," said Congressman John Sharp Williams. "The Justice had been looking on the corn liquor when it was white and he was in a sad state Smith had the witness. " 'What is your name?' demanded Smith. u " 'I object.' said Brown. 'It doesn't make any difference what his name is.' " 'Objection shustained,' solemnly muttered the court. " 'Where do you live?' asked Smith. "I object!' shouted Brown. 'It Ts immaterial where he lives.' " 'Shustained,' said the justice Smith blazed up, calling the justice a 'drunken old fool' and adding several other compliments. By degrees the justice comprehended the force and drift of the remarks and then it was his time to get mad. " 'Where's Frye?' he demanded Frye, the constable, emerged from the crowd with a broad grin which en raged the squire still more. "'Stand up there!' he yelled to the constable. 'I fine you $5 for letting George Smith insult me on the bench Court's adjourned.' "--Boston Jour nal. To Abolish Standing Armies. The smaller countries of Europe are finding that standing armies are too expensive to maintain ift lime of peace. A captain in the Bulgarian army, writing in the Independent says that the thinking men of Europe are in favor of abolishing standing armies and substituting the American plan of state militia. In Bulgaria, for instance, there are not so many people as there are in Greater New York, yet it has a standing army of 48 000 in time of peace. Roumania, which has a mil­ lion fewer people than the state of New York, has a standing army of 130,000. If the American standing army were as large as the Turkish, in pro­ portion to our population, we would have 700,000 soldiers to support. The cost of these standing armies is beg­ garing the people in half a doz"n European countries. Japan Prominent in Science. The Japanese have already done a great deal more than adopt Western science. They have materially added to it. fiitherto their greatest success has been in bacterioligy. a study de­ manding the utmost patience, manual dexterity and refinement of tech­ nique: and in the records of this branch of science they take rank only below France and Germajiy. and well in front of Great Britain. Their first conspicuous success was the discov­ ery of the bacillus that causes lock­ jaw. which was made some years a^o by Kitasato, and has already been the means of saving many lives from this disease by the use of an anti­ toxic serum prepared from the bacilli. Shiga discovered the bacillus which is responsible for the form of dysentery which is the scourge of armies. Overstayed His Dream. "I had a great dream^the other night. I dreamed I met a man who offered to cut me a pound slice of radium." "Whew! It's worth ntore'n a mil­ lion an ounce!" "That's right. 'Want a slice?' he says to me. 'Yes,' I answered hlm. But I was tco grasping." "How was that?" "I woke up just as I asked him to ml it thick." ^ • FREE TO TWENTY-FlV^ LADIES.
