Heart to Heart Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE. THE BYPRODUCT. The best things of life come Inci dentally. They are byproducts. Before you have gained wisdom In experience you fancy the battle of life Is easiest to win by frontal attack and you smash away at it. Later on you come to see that a flank movement is best. That is to say: Yon try to do something by direct effort and fail. Then you turn your attention to something else, and, lo, you find that which you sought at first For instance: You want to be happy. You try to make yourself happy. You try hard and fail. Then you quit trying and conclude that happiness is not won In lhat way. You conclude that it is best to make others happy. You try that and the first thing you know you are happy. It is the byproduct In looking for something else what you want turns up. You have won by the flank movement There's popularity. You want to be popular and you try to be. But somehow your smiles do not win. Somehow people come to see that you are working at the 'popular ity business. You fail. Then you con clude it is better to deserve popularity than to win it, that it Is better to try to be lovable than to be lovely. Then you are popular. A woman wants to be beautiful. She follows the directions of the experts of the Sunday papers, haunts the beau ty parlors uses face creams and cos metics and fails. She concludes it is better to have good health and a beau tiful soul. She perseveres and She is beautiful. It may be so even in making money You try to get rich quick. You fail. Then you conclude you are not cut out for a millionaire. You decide to go slowly and safely and be content And the money comes. It is so of fame. ' He who sets out to be famous and thinks only of fame Is apt to fail. When he reorganizes his life and concludes that It Is better to deserve fame than to acquire it be Is going rightly about the matter. When he merits his fame he get it It is the byproduct We are built that way. An Index. A man Is known by the Importance of the things which be gets angry about Puck. - ; A Buiy Port.

Dowager Viscountess Hur leigh was now face to face with a family problem. Her son was provid ed for. but she bad a daughter, Gladys, for whom there was no pro vision whatever and whom ber mother considered entirely incapable of pro viding for herself. Lady Gladys had she been born in America, where new fields are opening to women every day and where the daughters in wealthy families often work from mere preference, might have done very well. In England she was bound to be a failure. There is Just as inuch especial fitness for society as any other department of life, and Lady Gladys Hurleigh did not possess such fitness. When the young swells were brought up and introduced to her they got no response to their society chitchat and left her as soon as they could politely do so. Some Oxford .or Cambridge professor might draw out what there was in her, but not the dancing man of the smart set. The dowager viscountess was a practical woman, who instinctively understood the laws of supply and de mand. American women of fortune were marrying titles In England, but she could not recall a single case of an Englishwoman of noble family marrying a rich American. British noblemen went' to America for their wives. Why should not a British girl of a titled family go to America for a husband? Letters of introduction were obtain ed to the social leaders of New York, and Lady Hurleigh sailed with her DROPPED A StLVBR DOLLAR IN THE FORE MAN'S HAND. daughter on her. errand of conquest. I say her errand, for she had the good sense to keep ber object a "secret from Gladys, knowing that If the girl knew it she would flatly decline to go, and when Gladys put her foot down there was no lifting it The mother intend ed to guide the way diplomatically, keeping her daughter so far as pos sible from scientists, literary men, artists indeed, all who used their brains in fields that were- considered unprofitable. As to merchants and manufacturers.'- they were not to be considered. She proposed to surround her candidate with the wealthy Society men- of New York, ready to take ad vantage of any opportunity that might arise to supply Gladys' natural defi ciency as a husband angler. As the mother bad expected, she and ner daughter as members of the Brit ish nobility received every attention in New York, and the young men flocked about the young lady. But the men never got beyond a certain point, Gladys gave them an opportunity to show what of intrinsic value there was in tbem, and when it was apparent, 'as it was with most of them, that their brains were in their heels she shut herself up like a clam, and they soon dropped away from her. Her mother was disappointed. After spending a season without results Lady Hurleigh threw up the sponge and -prepared to go back to England. ' Then came a reqnest from Gladys that they see something of those engineer ing and mechanical wonders that she Jad . beard of as existing in America. l.ady Hurleigh knew that a request from her daughter was not to be de nied and reluctantly consented One morning Gladys and ber moth er, piloted by a gentleman and his wife, drove up before an enormous manufacturing concern and. alighting, entered the office, making a request to be shown the premises. At each de partment they were turned over to the foreman, who made such explanations of the machinery and processes as they asked for. One of these foremen, a young man of twenty-three or twenty four. Instead of allowing them to gape unintelligent)? at what they saw with out heir asking explained everything. Indeed, he made himself and' what be Bpoke of interesting to all except the riscpuntes8, who declined .o be inter ested by any man in a suit of overalls. When they left his department Gladys was much pleased at the young man's offer to show them over the balance of the work and accepted it with thanks. She was somewhat surprised that be should encroach upon parts of the fac- tory under other foremen, but be made no explanation of the matter, and it was soon forgotten in the interest be excited in what they were seeing. When they were ushered out to their conveyance Lady Hurleigh dropped a silver dollar in the foreman's band, much to her daughter's mortification. Seeing her embarrassment, be showed a delicacy far. above his station by ac cepting the tip as a matter of course. This was the last visit Lady Hur leigh made with her daughter to' any of the commercial or mechanical won ders of America. After that she told Gladys that she might go where she liked If she would only cut it short so that they might get back to England, and in a few weeks they sailed for home. The poor woman had met with a great disappointment At the opening of the next season when the "American invasion" of Eng land, as the English people call the begira of our tourists to Europe, be gan, persons whom Lady Hnrleigh add her daughter had met in America com menced to send in their cards. The younger of these persons the viscount ess left to ber daughter to entertain. Gladys, who bad been much pleased with the freshness, the absence of sham among the masses, that she bad found in America, surprised ber moth er by doing the honors successfully. Indeed. Gladys was far more attentive to them than her mother considered necessary, for the older lady not hav ing gained anything from ber visit was disposed to let the visitors see Eng land by themselves. Few young American men put in an appearance and these the viscountess left entirely to Gladys, seeing none of them herself. One day a Mr. Edwin Atherton called, and the card being taken to Lady Hurleigh, raising her glasses to read the name and not rec ognizing it, she sent it to ber daughter with a request that she receive the visitor. Some time after that when Mr. Atherton called again, Gladys, who was dressing, asked her . mother to go down and entertain him till she had finished her toilet The viscountess did as she was asked, and though she felt sure she had seen Mr. Atherton before could not place him. Neverthe less, to the manner born, she greeted him as one she remembered perfectly, but was careful to keep the conversa tion on general topics that she should not betray her ignorance of his IdentLJ ty. Her daughter appearing, she turn ed the guest over to her and. excusing herself, left the room. . It was not long before Lady Hur leigh noticed that Mr. Atherton was becoming a frequent caller. One day she asked Gladys who he was and where in America they had met him But Gladys' identification was not es pecially clear, and her mother got but little satisfaction. The American's calls continuing and certain attentions coming from him to Gladys that indi cated more than an ordinary interest, the fond mother made another effort to learn from her daughter something about him. All attempts failed, but after one of Mr. Atherton's calls. Gladys went to her mother radiantly happy and, handing her an American silver dollar, said: - "Mr. Atherton asked me to give this to you for one of your charities." The viscountess looked at the dollar then at Gladys. Something in thtf girl's face excited a desire for further Information. "Do you remember, mother, when we were in America visiting a factory be ing shown over the premises by a fore man and youtlpping him when we went away? " . "It seems to me I do." "Well, that's the identical dollar you gave him." The mother looked stupefied, and the daughter continued: "That foreman is the son and heir of the founder and principal owner of those works' In America, it seems, the sons of manufacturers sometimes go Into their fathers' works to learn the business, occupying successively every post from the lowest grade. This Mr. Atherton is one of these persons He has finished his apprenticeship and has come abroad on a vacation before assuming the vice presidency of the works of which his father ls-presi dent" Lady Hurleigh listened to this with intense interest When Gladys had finished she said: . "Are you quite sure, daughter, that he has not come on any other account than a vacation?" "He has, mother," replied the daugh ter, blushing. "He has told me that, after having shown us the factory, he made a resolution that he would fol low me to England with a view to win ning me for his wife." "And you have accepted him?" "I have." There were counter currents in the pother's heart The idea of her daugh ter marrying a mechanic that she had seen in overalls and whom she had thought it proper to tip was a terrible shock to her, but when she learned that the young man was heir to mil lions she was mollified, and when be was presented to ber as her future son-in-law she received him as well as could have been expected under the circumstances. Atherton is now attending to busi ness in America, where he and his wife live. Mrs.' Atherton boasts that she is the only Englishwoman who ever at tacked the American matrimonial mar ket so far as she knows, and carried away a prize. . Oaths of the Abort.

A curious cure for seasickness is giv en In an old homeopathic medical book, "The School of Salerne." "He that would crosse the sea." runs the pre scription, "must a few dayes before hee take ship mingle the sea water with his ''wine. This is a remedy for them that are rich;' but if It be a poor man, then, be must drink sea water onely, that he may the easier eschew casting. The reason hereof is because the sea water is salt, and with its salt nesse and the stipticltle that follow eth. saltnesse it closeth the mouth of the stomach, and thereby avoydeth casting or perbreaking."

George Young, the Main street mer chant, Saturday denied that he had bought tools from Stephen Short, who was arrested by Chief of Police Shaw on a charge of having stolen tools. Mr. Young said that Short offered to sell him logger's tools about two weeks ago, and when the man ap peared at his store Friday and offered to sell carpenter's tools he suspected that the tools had been stolen and called the chief of police. duDscribe for the Dolly Enterprise LIVE STOCK MARKET Wants of butchers are small in the livestock market at North Portland at this time. This causes a languishing trade. Receipts are coming forward so' freely that the trade has not been able to move, them promptly. The result is not only heavy expense for feeding and yardage, but the accep tances of lower prices. Saturday's run of livestock was lim ited, but was more than the trade wanted. There was a run of 135 hogs, but one load of tnese went direct to a meat company, the stock having been purchased outside of the yards. The market for hogs is weaker gen erally. At Chicago there was a weak er tone In the hog trade. Prices lost 5s with a run of 19,000 compared with 15,000 a year ago. At Kansas City hog offerings to talled 8,000 head.
