A tOVEB ONIJOBSEBACK.
It is curious to observe how easily the
strands of repetition become twined
into the strong- yarn of habit, and how.
almost of its own volition, the thread
thus twisted weaves itself into the fab-
Tic of humau life. When Mrs. Ludlow
introduced Hugh Ring-brand at "The
Iiaurels," Hester Latimer's first im
pressions of the young- author were
rather unpleasant than otherwise. She
said to herself, after Mrs. Ludlow had
departed with her guest, that he was
too stiff and conventional; tnat ne
seemed ill at ease; that he was too
-well-bred to be congenial. Though she
did not in the least suspect it, the
source of her dissatisfaction lay in the
fact that she had been prepared to lion-
ire him because he was an author, and
it was a trifle disappointing to be forced
to the conclusion that he was, after all,
only a man. like Other men,
differing from other gentlemen
of her acquaintance in - no re
markable degree, and wearing
none of the insignia and regalia of the
Ancient and Honorable Guild of Story-
Tellers. When she visited Mrs. Ludlow
the following day, some mention of this
disappointment came out in the con
versation, and the self-elected ambas
sadress laughed joyously at the tenta
tive suggestion of the girl.
"Why, my dear Hester, did you expect
to find him wearing a uniform, with a
coat of arms and a pen trenchant for a
crest?" she inquired.
"N no, not exactly that, of course:
but I did expect to find him differing
somehow from other gentlemen.
"In what way?"
Oh, in lots of wavs. 1 have a little
collection of idols like most other peo
ple, I suppose and one of them has a
separate niche and is labeled an au
thor.' He has smashed that one beyond
the hope of repair."
f Whn.t. a rtfliriilriis iflpn.! Poor TTnfh !
he'd be broken-hearted if he knew how
sadly he had failed to realize your
ideal."
"There it is again, you see. An author
iny author ought to be so far above
common things that he wouldn't care in
the least what a foolish girl thought or
said about him."
Mrs. Ludlow smiled. "If you knew
him as well as I do if you could have
seen him when he was struggling for
recognition, with everything against
him and no encouragement outside of
his own conviction that the gift of au
thorship was in him ; when every fresh
disappointmentonlymadehimmore de
termined to succeed if you could have
known him in those days, you wouldn't
have thought him commonplace. And
even now, if you'll give him a hint of the
superhuman part you expect him to
play, he'll make a brave attempt to rise
to the occasion. I'm quite sure I
shouldn't do it, though, for I fancy that
in gaining your demi-god you might lose
a pleasant every-day acquaintance."
.tn" l . i t .
j lie ii xii ihii, uu it, x promise you;
pleasant acquaintances are not so plen
tiful in Tregarthen that one can afford
to experiment with them, not even for
the sake of restoring a cherished idol.'
Having obtained a foothold at "The
Laurels," Eingbrand made good use of
his opportunities; and as Hester came
to know him better she began to forgive
him for breaking the idol. As Ludlow
had foretold, there was no limit to the
colonel's hospitality; and from stroll
ing up to the plateau at irregular inter
vals after supper, Eingbrand soon fell
into the habit of spending the greater
number of his afternoons at the home of
the Latimers, and Hester soon found
herself looking forward to his visit as
to something without which the day
"Would be incomplete. .
One afternoon, when he had been in
vited to come at a certain hour, he
found Hester in riding-habit and hat.
and the colonel's boy leading two sad
dled horses up and down before the
veranda steps.
"I'm going to carry you horseback-
riding, Mr. Eingbrand," she said, run
ning down the steps to meet him.
He looked askance at the two thor
oughbreds, and fried to summon the
courage to say that he knew less than
CM::j ribcut hcrnccanship. "I'm
afraid you'll find me a sorry cavalier.
Miss Hester," he remonstrated.
- "Oh, Pluto is gentle; anybody can
Tide him," she rejoined, gathering her
skirt and standing beside her horse.
"Will you give me a hand please ?" .
Having, in his stories, had frequent
occasion todescribe.the dexterous man
ner in which a gentleman assists a lady
to mount, Eipgbrand knew precisely
"Poor Hugh! He'd be heart-broken H he knew
what was required of him; nut, unfor
tunately, the ability to portray dexter
ity in virile English does not necessarily
imply its possession by the artist. He
took his place rather awkwardly beside
Hester and made a step of his hand,
holding It so high that she hesitated.
J'Just a little bit lower, if you please,"
she said, demurely, and his last shred of
self-possession took flight as he com
plied. Since Miss Latimer was any
thing but ethereal, the first attempt
broke his hold and covered him with
confusion; putting his strength into
the next, he lifted so vigorously that
nothing but Hester's ready agility saved
her from falling out of the saddle on the
opposite side. It was too much for her
equanimity, and she burst into a ring
ing laugh.
Eingbrand straightened up and wiped
the perspiration from his face. "I beg
your pardon indeed I do; I told you I
was but an indifferent horseman," he
apologized.
"Please don't mention it," she said,
as soon as she could speak. "It's aw
fully mean in me to laugh, but I couldn't
help it. I shall have an immense respect
for your strength after this."
Eingbrand took Pluto's bridle from
the grinning boy and tried to mount,
forgetting, in his embarrassment, that
well-trained saddle-horses are prone to
object to approaches from the wrong
side. .He did not realize his mistake un
til be had one foot in the stirrup and
was hopping about breathlessly in n
desperate endeavor to make Pluto stand
still long enough to enable him to spring
into the saddle; but with the knowl
edge came a sudden access of obstinacy,
and he determined to succeed if it took
the remainder of the afternoon. Hester
was convulsed with laughter, and it
was some moments before she could
find breath to suggest that Pluto was
unaccustomed to receiving his rider
form the off side.
"I know it isn't custom ary,"
gasped Eingbrand, making violent ef
forts to keep near the plunging animal,
"but I usually do it this way."
Just then his foot slipped out of the
stirrup, and Pluto's enthusiastic and re
proachful protests ceased. The discom
fited cavalier mopped his steaming face
again, and beckoned to the boy.
".Tust hold him a second, will you?"
he said, and, backing away for a short
run, he vaulted into the saddle before
the astonished charger knew what was
happening.
"Bravo! bravo!" exclaimed Hester,
clapping her hands in delighted appro
val. "That was certainly original.
Where did you learn to vault, Mr. Eingbrand?"
"I used to do a little of it at the uni
versity," he replied, modestly forbear
ing to add that he had held the record
for the running high jump in his class.
"Do do gentlemen usually mount
that way in New York ?" she inquired,
innocently.
"I can't say they do not always," he
responded, as they ambled down the
long avenue and turned into the moun
tain road. "Now that you speak of it,
I'm not sure that I ever saw anyone do
it In just that way at least not outside
of a circus."
She laughed again, a sweet bubbling
over of unrestained merriment that
made him think of happy children and
singing birds. "Didn't you know, sure
enough, that you were on the wrong
side?" she asked, naively.
"Honestly, I didn't at first," he con
fessed, "but I began to suspect some
such dreadful thing before you spoke.
Then it occurred to me that Pluto was
unreasonably particular about such a
small thing, and I thought it might be
well to convince him of the fact."
"I think you've succeeded; but I'm
afraid you have hurt his sense of the
proprieties beyond recovery. He is al
most as conventional as I used to think
you were.
"I hope you don't think it any more,
after seeing my interpretation of 'boots
and saddles,' " he protested. "And while
we're on the subject of horseback rid
ing, let me make an open confession;
I know less than nothing about it. ex
perimentally, and I shall be deeply in
debted to you if you'll teach me how to
behave in a becoming manner."
She leaned over and disengaged her
skirt from its entanglement in his stir
rup. "May I ?" she asked.
"I shall be very grateful." '
"Well, then, I I believe it is custom
ary for a gentleman to ride on the other
side," she began.
Eingbrand had quite recovered his
self-possession by this time, and he
pulled Pluto around to her right. "Of
course. I should think that would sug
gest itself naturally to anyone but a
book worm like myself; I assure you I
shouldn't have made my hero in a story
guilty of such awkwardness. Now,
how about these stirrups? they seem
to me to be too short, or too long, or
something."
She looked at them critically: "I
think they are a little too short. Shall
I hold Pluto while you dismount to let
them down?"
'No, thank you; I think I can manage
it from the deck," he replied, slipping
his feet fronvthe stirrup irons and ad
justing the straps to a more comforta
ble length. "There, how is that?"
"That looks better. : Now, shall we
try a little gallop?"
'If you please. Pll do anything you
tell me to."
They swept along the level road at an
easy canter, and Eingbrand profited by
Hester's suggestions as well as he could
in the short intervals which his furtive
admiration of her graceful carriage and
radiant beauty spared him from a
consideration of his own shortcom
ings. The road led them finally
to' the western brow of the moun
tain, and they puHed up at the
edge of the cliff to enjoy the view
;pread out before them. . . -"Your
surroundings are a perpetual
nspiration,' Miss Hester," said Eing
brand, feasting his eyes with the keen
appreciation of an artist upon the mag
nificent panorama' of the mountains
and valleys and forests stretching away
to the westward. '.
"I am glad you like Tennessee," re
plied the girl, with a touch of pathos in
her voice. "So many peopler-especial-ly
northerners seem to think it an un
profitable wilderness." . -
"Who could be so unappreciative as to
say that?"
' "Miss Bradfern, for one. She is from
1'oston, and she visited friends in Dun
bar last summer. She was continually
pining for New England in general and
I'.oston in particular. ' I'm sure I can't
understand how she will be able to live
here." . .
"Is she coming here to live ?"
' "Yes; as the wife of our rector in
Tregarthen. I tell him he's setting a
bad example by going so far from
home." - ; '
"Then I presume he is a southerner?"
"He is; he's a Georgian; but I believe
be was ed ucated in the north."
"Am I to understand that you think
one ought not to marry out of his sec
tion?" he asked, making the rector's
case a possible opportunity for ascer
taining his own standing. '
"Oh! I wouldn't say anything so
radical as that," she replied, stroking
her horse's mane; "only, it seems to
me, there are many reasons against it.
You don't hnderstand you can't un
derstand how much sectional, feeling
there is in the south."
"I know there -used to be, but I
thought it was a thing of the past,
since the war."
To be Continued.
Fruit Prospects.
The weather of the past few dayB has
not been cold enough to destroy the
fruit bads, and nnleea something un
usual in that line happens, there will
be a tremendous output of fruit in Wasco
county. Mr. P. J. Stadelman says there
will be a profitable demand for good
fruit the coming season, and Mr.
Schanno, epeakirg upon" that subject,
says that Alaska will from this on fur
nish a constantly growing market for
fruit, especially winter apples.
The trouble is that a great deal of fruit
raised by the growers is next to worth
less. Some standard variety should be
selected, and enough trees planted of
one kind to make it an object to pur
chasers. There is no danger of over
stocking the market. The best grade of
apples' ere now selling for $2 a box, as
good a figure as ever before, and the
yield increases greatly each year. When
a fruit grower hears of some one about
to plant 160 acres of orchard it should
not cause him alarm that the price for
fruit will drop because of the increaeed
yield. If every acre in Wasco county
capable of nourishing a fruit tree were
planted to a single variety of some good
winter-keeping apple, there would be
no trouble about selling every box of
the fruit. The competition would not
be among the growers, but among the
buyers, who would be here from all
over the western half of the United
States to bay Wasco county apples.
Mark Levy, the commission man of
Portland bad a letter yesterday from a
Hood River grower, who writes : "Have
had very severe weather np here ; the
thermometer went down to 32 degrees.
The peaches will have to be steel clad
aud copper fastened to withstand that."
"The fruits," said Mr.- Levy, "that
will be chiefly damaged by the frost are
the peaches and strawberries apples
not being far enough advanced yet.
When fruit is in full bloom, as it is now,
it doesn't take much to catch it."
. B. S. Pague, of the weather bureau,
takes a very optimistic view of the freeze
up, and scouts the idea that it has done
any Berious damage. Mr. Pague thinks
that the frost has merely pruned the
blossoms and will not affect the fruit to
any extent, as the tress are now too
heavily loaded with blossoms.
Forecast Fair tonight and tomorrow ;
warmer.
A Bank
Failure.
AN INVESTIGATION
DEHANDED.
A general banking business is done by
the human system, because the blood de
posits in its vaults whatever wealtbrwe may
gain from day to day. This wealth is laid
up against "a rainy day " as a reserve fund
we're in a condition of healthy prosperity
if we have laid away sufficient capital to
draw upon in the hour of our greatest need.
There is danger in getting: thin, because it's
a sign of letting- down in health. To gain
in blood is nearly always to gain in whole
some flesh. The odds are in favor of the
germs of consumption, grip, or pneumonia,
if our liver be inactive and our blood im
pure, or if our flesh be reduced below a
healthy standard. .What is required ia aa
increase in our germ-fighting strength. Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery enriches
the blood and makes it wholesome, stops
the waste of tissue and at the same time
builds no the strength. A medicine whirh
will rid the blood of its poisons, cleanse and
invigorate, the great organs of th body,
vitalize the system, thrill the whole being
with new energy and make permanent work
of it, is surely a remedy of great value. But
when we make a positive statement that 98
per cent, of all cases of consumption can, if
taken in the early stages of the disease, be
cured with the f' Discovery," it seems like
a bold assertion. All Dr. Pierce asks is that
you make a thorough investigation and
satisfy yourself of the truth of his assertion.
By sending to the World's Dispensary Med
ical Association, Buffalo, N. Y., yon can get
a free book with the names, addresses and
photographs of a large number of those
cured of throat, bronchial and lung diseases,
as well as of skin and scrofulous affections
bv the "Golden Medical Discovery." They
also publish a book of 160 pages, being a
medical treatise on consumption, bronchitis,
asthma, catarrh, which will be mailed on
receipt of address and six cents in stamp.

"Flnnig-an's Ball.'
Murray & Mack are the exponents par
excellence of Irish comedy. They have
a bright, daring conception, and give an
artistic portrayal of Timothy .Finnigan
and Connor Casey, the principal mirth
provokers in "Finnigan'a Ball." Their
specialties are exceedingly clever. Their
burlesque boxing match is famous, and
during its progress the fun comes
fast and furious. All the popular fads
are burlesqued, and . the new woman
conies in for her share of attention. The
supporting company includes the Loring
sisters, who do several novel turns, and
whose umbrella dance is particularly
taking, as they are so near alike in size
and figure they can hardly be told apart,
even on the .street. Gracie Cumminirs.
Edith Newton, Winifred Stewart, Rita
Dixon, Lonnie Deane, Geo. H. Euienck,
(the author of the play,) Clayton E.
White. Bert Leslie. Chas. Lamb and
Vincent Minelli comprise the balance of
the company.-
