MoCluro Company "A man In my position," ho said pompously, "Is called upon to do many disagreeable things.' Cornelia subdued a laugh behludhct fan. '' How funny ho was! Cornelia had a provoking sense of humor and was always seeing Jokes where none whs Intended. She moved her rocker farther Into the shadow and looked dowu on the man In the full glare of the street lamp. He had his profile turned at Just the right augle, as usual. It was a hand some profile, and Cornelia was so used to It that when, on one occasion, he failed to present It directly she asked him, with one qf her slow, Inscrutable smiles, to do so. Be did not see the sarcasm beneath her tuu, and his In suffcrablo conceit was undoubtedly nattered. " 'Disagreeable things!' " she said lightly. "Why, what are they? Tell me about them." "Well, there's choosing among clerks for promotion, tor one thing, and dis missing them when you can't keep them,, for another widows aud moth. era who come weeping into your office and faint bn your sofa and have to be taken home in cabs.1 "Oh, dear, how sadl Do you have to say who is to go? It must be very bard." "It is. There ore other things that are just bores, like recommendations, for example. Hardly a day passes but some young fellow asks me for a letter to his chief or a senator or represent!! tive. Of course It's easy enough to dic tate a few lines of stuff just to satisfy him, but It's a bore to have him come, especially when he comes again be cause the letter was no good." "But aren't the letters any good? asked Cornelia ,In real surprise. "I tnougnc you naa sucn on, sacn won derful influence now. I thought any letter of yours would get any one any thing." The man looked up with a grim smile. "Ob, of course I can get anything I really want," he said. "I've fixed sev eral men from my state very comforta bly, but tbese others are just boys. Miss Cornelia, looking out for a soft snap. We men can't be bothered with recommendlug kids.1 "Weren't you ever a kid yourself, Mr. Stokes?" was on Cornelia's Hps. bat she checked them in time. She was thinking of one kid In particular who like these others was looking for a soft snap. At least, be bad told Cor nelia it was a Boft snap because It meant $4,500 a year to him and some thing more precious besides, but there was bard work in it, and be knew it Cornelia knew all about it. When "the kid" bod asked her to marry blra it was not because she admired bis clas sic profile (even she could hardly call it that), and instead of blaming herself and fate she bad found tbut llfo bad suddenly become grander, sweeter and better worth the living. She wished she could ask this man to help him, to give him the letter the commissioner required and which she knew the boy was going to request. That hateful red tape! The commissioner bad said. "Yes, undoubtedly young Beale Is tbc man for the place, but how are we to give it to bim when be seems to have no political backing at all, whereas tbut fellow Morris, who hasn't the sense he was born with, has the whole senate or near it?" "The kids don't understand the tricks of the trade, you see," the man- went on. "They think a letter's a letter and go off grinning, expecting to be In the cabinet in four years and president in eight They're too soft to know that nlue oat of ten letters are shams and not worth the paper they're written on." Cornelia felt a diBtinct hatred of this man who could speak so cruelly. How she detested blm for saying "kids!" Sbo wished be would go. How do you manage with the re cipients of the letters?" she asked, to make conversation, "Don't they honoi all from the Hon. Gilbert Stokes?" No," he replied. "They all know the little finishing toucb that makes it Important If we mean what we say aud really want a fellow to get a Job. we pin a visiting card to the top of tin letter. If there's no card. It menus no job. Simple, isn't It? When the lei tcrs go by hnnd, lh boys think It's u little" dodge IcJ prevent forgery or some thing or tbut sort, aud we never havi any trouble." Cornelia's throat, tightened. "1 ', dou'l see how you can do Hint." hIii said stiffly. "But but I suppose" with a swift change of torn. "you can't help it, of course. And how di you do It?" "It's not much of a story," he snld. and It was not but Cornelia listened with breathless Interest and wns glad that be waudered on from one topic to another, requiring only monosyllabic replies from her. She sat In tho grate ful shadow above blm, ber cheeks burning and her usually quiet bands furling and unfurling her fan. When be rose to go; she said good night with unwonted cordiality and watched blm as he strode down the street past the merry doorstep parties out of sight But long after the last noisy group bad dispersed she still sat there thinking, . e The boy came up stairs two steps it a time and nearly knocked Cornelia over at the top. "It's come, dearl" he cried, catching ber in bis arms to steady them both. "So you can order your trousseau at once. It's a sura thing uow. That ftl . low Stokes has Bout mo a Duo letter. I Isn't bo u brick?" I Tho quick color flow to Coruclln's cheeks. ' "Oh," she said, "you got my nolo? I'm so glad, dear. May I seo tho let ter ?" Sho took It with trembling lingers and read it through. It was addressed to tho commissioner and asked .,, courteous and well chosen phrases that tho writer's esteemed young friend, Geoffrey Uonle, bo appointed to tho po- sillon bo sought. Thejetter was spot - less nud correct In overy detail, but there was no sign of a card either on tin inti.,,. , I,, n. ,,i,,- i.i the letter or In ho envelope, the lat- ter containing only Geoffrey's letter of transmittal. "Will you lot me show it to mother, dear?" the girl asked, refolding It. "Sho will like to see tt, of course. It Is line. Isn't It?" sho rattled on. "Just what you needed. It Is so kind of Mr. Stokes, I will be back In a minute or two." Sho found her mother nud rend the precious pugc to ber; then, running noiselessly on tho soft carpets, sho went to her own room. Hastily select ing a visiting card from tho tray on her desk, sho pinned It to tho letter and closed the envelope. -Her heurt was beating wildly, and ber fluttering hands could hurdly hold the letter. She stood oil Instant undecided, then dropped on ber knees bvsido tho bed. "Dear God," she whispered, "don't let It bo wicked please don't let it be wicked, dear Qodl I don't mean It to be, and It Is tho only way." Sho knelt a moment with bowed head, then weut quietly down stab's. "Mother thinks It Is lovely,' dour,' she said. "Seu! I have closed It for you, with all my love and best wishes for Its success. Wou't that give it luck?" They went out together and posted It. In the evening the man camo again. "A queer thing happened yesterday," he said. "You remember our talk lost week about writing letters of Introduc tion? Well, I wrote one yesterday for that young fellow Bcalo you know him, I believe and my man failed to put the curd In. I want Beulo to get the place. He s a really capable man. I found the card on the desk after tho mall bad gone out I wrote to the com mlsslouer at once. It will be ull right. of course, but I wonder bow often thai sort of thing happens." Cornelia gripped the arms of hei chair tightly and stared straight uhetn: of ber Into the durkucss. The tint ' studied her face. "That wns tbut I.- so kind of you Mr. Stokes," she said gently, "lien frey I mean Mr lletilc- tvill he vei grateful. We have been po no nnlot for blm to succeed." The mau smiled grimly, Then ; said "Good uight!" and went down tl street slowly, as ir he was not itiii sure of the way. ChooalnK a Minister.

Stir It well together, with fresh cheese, yolks of eggs and brains. Wrap It In a fragrant fig leaf and boll In the gravy of a chicken or a kid. When taken out, remove the leaf and souse It In n potful of boiling boncy. The name of this comestible is derived from the fls leaf, but the mixture con sists of equal parts of each, but rather more eggs, because this gives It con sistency. This appears to have been a popular dish among the Greeks. To us it seems about as nice as an oyster eaten with brown sugar. Aristophanes mentions a thirum of salt Huh and a tliliiim of fat In tho Frogs" there Is a dismal Joke In the form of a reasonable objection made to leaping from a high tower, "I would lose two fig leaves of brain."

A story wns told the other day of a llttlo girl who discovered a cobweb and then, seeing a spider emerge from it. culled out: "See the cob run I How fnst tho cob runs!" As a matter of fact she bulldcd belter than she knew, for cob, or cop, is, according to the dic tionaries, the name sometimes given to 11 spider: whence the word cobweb, which Is, strictly speaking, copweb. Cop In this sense Is probably un abbre viation of the Anglo-Saxon uttcrcoppe, a spider.

The extent of this suffering may be gathered from Mrs. Nelson' s experience told in the letter given below. She says, " ami so nerv ous Mil the least thing would startle me almost into convulsions." Such a con dition of nervousness generally indicates womanly diseases. It is useless to ut teutpt to cure nervousness by the use of narcotics. NARCOTICS AUK DKADI.Y for the nervous worotin whose need Is not to make the nerves slep but to make them strong, not to numb them but to nourish them. The best medi cine for nervous women is Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It cures nervous ness because it cures the causes which are behind nervousness. It establishes regularity, dries the drains which under mine the ' health and strength, heals inflammation and ulceration and cures female weakness. It makes weak women strong and sick women well. ' " Dr. Pierce's medicines arc the best I have ever used," writes Mrs. C. Nelson, of Chemswtt, Murion Co., Oregon. "My health was badly run down when I con sulted him by letter. My limbs were cold and my head hurt me continually. I wns so nervous that the least thing would startle me almost into convul sions. I bad palpitation of the heart so bad that I could scarcely walk some times. I felt utterly discouraged, but two bottles of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre scription and one of ' Golden Medical Discovery ' made a new woman out of me. We are never without Dr. Pierce's Pellets in the house. " Nothing is claimed for Dr. Pierce's Favorite-Prescription but is claimed for it by the women who have been cured by its use. Behind every claim is a cure yes, a thousand cures. In fact, NOTICE FOR PUBLICATION. United mates l.nr.d Olllcn, Koseburg, Oregon, June V, low.
