VHAt DREAMS
MAY COME
CopyrlKht, 1901, by T, C. McClure.
All ilny lontf the heavy louden clornlB
bud tliriwU'iitiitf ruin, mid toward j
evening ft begun, very Hnftly at fli'Ht, '
but growing Htuudlly In volume, until at
8 o'clock It wub a verl bible downpour,
milling (eadlly ou the tin roof of tliej
liotel jjIjizzu und bunting ugiiliitit the
Windows In Nplteful fuslilon.
. It whs cold, too, uud u cheerful lire
cmckJcd aud Kputtered Bturdlly In the
big II replace In tne hotel ofllco, but de
eplte the lire and the lights uud the gay ,
chatter of the guests eougiegnted In 1
the big palm lined room the effect of
the storm outside was glaringly evi
dent. A cold, rainy evening at u popu
lar summer hotel is something to be re
membered und avoided.
Near the llrepluce ut n scoe of little
tables the, energetic Sirs. 1'ottor hud
started n game of progressive euchre,
mill In the big hall the orchestra bud
been pressed into unwilling service by
some of the younger guests, and the
Btnilus of the latest popular waltzes
und the sound of shullllng feet drew
many people thither.
Streeter, lounging in a chulr near the
desk, alternately read a morning paper
for the third time and tried to find
some Interest hi the uttempts of the
other guests to amuse themselves.
In sheer desperation he was perusing
the "want column" when he saw Miss
Gale come down the broad stairs. He
wis by her side In u moment.
"I wanted to claim you before Mrs.
Totter kidnaped you or some one else
drugged, you off to dance," he explained
laughingly.
The girl smiled amusedly and shook
a linger at him.
"I can see at n glanco that you are
bored to death uud in search of diver
sion at any cosl," she snid.
"Your diagnosis Is correct," said Jie.
"I nm suffering from that unhappy
malady, or I was until I caught sight
of you. You know that It was because
you recommended litis place that I
enrne here. Now, you must do your
best to dispel the gloom that has de
scended upon me."
"What shall 1 do?" she asked lightly.
"Introduce you to sonic of Mrs. rot
ter's proteges or get Mrs. Vuudent to
give you the personal history of every
one hereV"
"I think," said Streeter, "that Chopin
In the music room would be the host
uy:!!ioU" .
. ''You are very modest In your de
mands," she laughed. "Chopin you
shall have until you cry for mercy.
Come on!" '
: -U'Uey inado their way to the little
music room far down I ho corridor, and
to Slrceter's unutterable delight they
found It (juite deserted. Streeter turned
out the lights aud lighted two little rod
sanded candles on the piano.
"Just right now for the fifth noc
turne," lie said as he purveyed the two
Etpots of color in the gloom.
The girl ran her lingers over the
keys, and Streeter drew a chair near
her and sat down. She began to play
the lirth nocturne very softly, mid
Btreeter, leaning Inek comfortably,
witched the pretty proHle outlined
faintly by the candle light. And us he
listened to the ruin beating against the
windows he realized the good that a
seemingly 111 wind hid blown htm.
The nocturne died away as it had be
gun, very softly, and he drew his chair
Into the little circle cf light.
"The only trouble with that noc
turne," he said gravely, "Is that, like
nil things temporal, it comes to an
end."
"Are you fond of them?" she asked.
"I'll play another."
"Io you know," he said quickly. "I
have often dreamed of some such situ
ation as this."
"A long, dreary evening at a storm
bound summer resort V" she laughed.
"No," ho said serMisly; "of a piano

this.'
She began another nocturne, even
more softly, that it might not inter
rupt theii conversation.
"Dreams very seldom come true,"
she said. And whether or not her tone
was mocking Btreeter wis at loss to
decide.
He 'silently listened to the nocturne
and studied the girl's profile intently,
but the profile was noneomtnltal. He
leaned forward In bis chair and spoke
very softly.
"It was a very pretty dream," he sold,
"oneftof those Intangible bits of hap
piness that makes one loath to como
to prosaic ' earth again. There was
one thing about those dreams, how
ever, quite different froln this partial
realization."
"And what was that?" she asked.
"The piano nnd the. little red shaded
candles and und you were In my own
house," he said.
The nocturne grew a trifle louder.
The girl's glanco wns turned to the
other side of the room.
"What n presumptuous dream I" she
said.
"Wns it?" said Stroeter meekly. "I
couldn't help dreaming It, you know."
There was a long pause. Then he
said slowly:
"Perhaps It was presumptuous. You
Bee, I wasn't asleep when I dreamed
it."
The nocturne enmo to an abrupt end
hig. The girl rose from the pinno.
"You're not angry?" said Streeter in
alarm. 1
"N-no," she said.
"Then then," ho began nnd halted
miserably; "Tell me," ho said, "do
dreams go by contrary?"
The girl had reached the door. Rhe
turned, nnd even In the dim light he
could see th deep color In her cheeks.
"Not not any dreams," she almost
whispered. GRANT OWEN.
HUGE STATUE OF BUDDHA.
The MiimiiHitli Ilceliiiliiff Figure at
ItnttKuiit Iltirimi.
To tho eastern traveler tho statue of
Buddha Is a familiar sluht. From
Colombo, In Ceylon, to Kolie, in Japan,
ho In ovcrywliero greeted by tho same
mini, Impassive anil mysterious face
of tho eastern prei-cptor of perfection.
But In no city in the orient do the
form and faee of ltuddhu constitute
80 frequent or so essential a part of the
city's decoration as in IUii;:mi, Bur
ma, starling place of Sir. Kipling's
famous "ltoad to Mandalay," the
stronghold of Buddhists. Notable
even anions tho countless statues of
liiingun Is tho mammoth Buddha, rep
resenting lite strange teacher not
standing or sitting erossleggeil, as In
the majority of statues, hut reclining
on a huge raised couch, his mighty
form stretched out for I'OO feet, vhilo
Ills shoulders rival the wKith of that
wonder of the ancient world, the t 'olos
sus of Uhodes, their ttluuic breadth
reaching llt'ty feet.
tint one among the wonders 01 uun- j
pun, this nudity figure rests near mo i
famous Shony Dagou, tho center of the
Burmese Buddhist world, crowned by
the golden pagoda, which rises 300 feet ,
above It, Its walls covered with pure .
gold, the gift of a prince who contrib
uted Ids weight in gold to the pagoda.
In the Shony Dngou there are countless
other statues of Buddlul, as well as
relics of (laittatna, tho last Buddha.
All, equally with tho huge reclining
Buddha, form a part of the religious
rites of tlio Buddhists, for the es
sence of Buddhism consists In the
struggle to become like Buddha, to at
tain his perfection by obedience to his
precepts. To do this It Is necessary al
ways to have Buddha 111 mind, and it
Is for this reason Mint every city In the
Buddhist world Is literally crowded
with his Images. Uuddlia himself Is
not deltlttl. l'otentiiilly every Bud
dhist tuny attain Ills perfection, but
only by the eternal Imitation of his
practice.
But, while statues such as Unngun's
huge colossus are Important in Bud
dhist worship, of even more Importance
are the relics of Buddha.
It was about the Miouy Hagon that
the Burmese made their last tierce light
when the British came to ltangun. A
Venetian traveler of S1O0 years ago vis
iting tho Shoay Itagon has left a de
scription of this famous temple, con
ceding Its claim to rivalry with his
own Venice, that would serve as a con
temporaneous description, and today,
as In untold centuries past, the Bur
mese still bring their offering of flow
ers and fruit, candles nnd paper lings,
to lay before the huge reclining Bud
dha, whose hands would afford com
fortable standing room for four of the
worshipers and whoso gigantic faco
wears the strange. Inscrutable expres
sion of calm which Is the outward
murk of spiritual Buddhism. New

Cost of Protection
By the Man Who Knows
OULD you bo willing to pay
something to know of n sure
plan for circumventing a
robber when he comes Into your place
of business late at night and tries to
hold you up?" usked a man In a suit
of fuded black, who hud stepped Into
a north side drug store.
"tiure!" said the druggist, sturlng at
him with good humored Incredulity.
"Well, I have devised a method that
can't possibly fall. I'll tell you nil of
it but one partlculur, and If it looks
promising you pay me u dollar, and
I'll give you the whole scheme. If it
doesn't look all right, yon can say so
und save your dollar. There will be no
barm done. Does that sound fair?"
"Yes. (Jo ahead."
The caller whispered in his ear for
the next two or three minutes.
"That's nil but the final and most
important pnrt of it," lie said. "Is It
worth a dollar to know the rest?"
"Yes. Ilere'H your money," the drug
gist responded, handing it over and
listening with entire satisfaction to the
unfolding of the whole plot.

This Is the question you ask per

WOMEN NOT TRUTHFUL
This Statement Has Been Unjustly Made, Because
Modest Women Evade Questions Asked By
Male Physicians. '
An eminent physician says that
"Women are not truthful; they will lie
to their physician." This statement
should bo qualified; women do tell the
truth, but not the whole truth, to a
male physician, but this is only in re
gard to those painful and troublesome
disorders peculiar to their sex.
There can'be no more terrible ordeal
to a delicate, sensitive, refined woman
than to be obliged to answer certain
questions when those questions are
asked, even by her family phyrtieian.
This is especially the case with un
married women.
Is it any wonder, then, thai women
continue to suffer and that doctors
fail to cure female diseases when they
cannot gut the proper information to
work on ?
This is the reason why thousands and
thousands of women are now corre
sponding1 with Mrs. Pinkhnm. To her
they can and do give every symptom,
so that she really knows more about
the true condition of her patients,
through her correspondence with them
than the physician who personally
questions them.
Tf you su flrer from any form of trouble
peculiar to women, write at once to
Jlrs. Finkham, Lynn, Mass., and she
will advise you free of charge.
The fact that this great boon, which
is extended freely to women by Mrs.
Pinliham, is appreciated, the thou
sands of letters received by her prove.
Many such grateful letters as the fol
lowing are constantly pouring in.

Dear Mrs. Pinkhnm:
" I cannot thank you enough for what your
