I've wandered east, I've wandered west,
In gypsy wise a random roamer.
Of men and maids I've knows the best,
Like the far traveled king in Homer.
Bnt, oh, for the land that bore me I
Oh, for the stout old land
Of breezy Ben and winding glen
And roaring flood and sounding strand.
I've stood where stands in pillared pride
The shrine of Jove's spear shaking daughter
And humbled Persia stained the tide
Of free Greek seas with heaps of slaughter.
I've stood upon the rocky crest
Where Jove's proud eagle spreads his pinion
Where looked the god far east, far west.
And all he saw was Rome's dominion.
I've seen the domes of Moscow far.
In green and golden glory gleaming,
And stood where sleeps the mighty czar.
By Neva's flood bo grandly streaming.
I've stood on many a famous spot
Where blood of heroes flowed like rivers.
Where Deutschland rose at Gravelotte,
And dashed the strength of Gaul to shiver.
I've fed my eyes by land and sea.
With sights of grandeur streaming o'er me
But still my heart remains with thee.
Dear Scottish land, that stoutly bore me.
Oh, for the land that bore mel
Oh, for the stout old land.
With mighty Ben and winding glen.
Stout Scottish land, my own dear landt

A DUOLOGUE.
This is not a "problem story."
Neither does it discuss the advantages
or disadvantages of having "new wo
men" in our midst
It is a trne tale.
And- it concerns a good man and
bad woman.
Tbey would never have met if the
London county council had come into
existence a few years earlier than it did,
because he saw her at the Empire. The
exact date was Ang. 25, and it was a
very hot nieht.
The curtain had fallen on the last
scene of the ballet The man rose from
his seat and. walked across the prom
enade toward the bar.
He passed several women, bnt he did
not pass her. He had no intention of
stopping, still less of speaking.
Yet, when he saw her, he stopped,
and when she stopped he spoke,
kv I da not remember what be said.
They sat down together at a little
tabla A waiter brought them a cup of
black coffee and a whisky and soda.
He drank the coffee.
They talked, but again I cannot re
member what they said.
A man on the stage sang a comic
song. A woman on the promenade faint
ed and was carried away.
Then she said, "Well, are yon com
ing?"
"No," he roplied. "I don't know
why I stopped or why I spoke to yon.
I am not 'one of the crowd' here. I am
not a performer in the 'Comedy of
Life.' I am only an onlooker. "
She stared at him. "Then why"
"I have told yon I do not know.
Perhaps I thought yon looked out of
place here."
"I have been here every evening for
1 3 months. I ought not to look 'oat of
. place. "
"Why did you come?"
"Do yon expect me to answer that
question in this building, surrounded
by these people?"
"I am sorry. Of course not It would
resemble a performance by 'The Inde
pendent Theater society, I suppose?"
"I had better go, then, if yon do
not"
"No; stay and talk. Are you happy?"
"Hardly."
"Are you miserable?"
"I am not sure. "
"Did you ever love anything?
"Yes."
"What?"
"Life the trees and fields; the wild
- moorlands; the sea; the birds that
. sing in the hedgerows; the cattle in
the fields; the horses and dogs at the
farms. Yes, I loved life. I loved to feel
the wind blowing in my face; I loved
to smell the scent of the heather; I loved
to hear the song of the mountain
streams. Ha, hal I'm almost poetic!
I'm"
"Goon."
"That is alL Did yon ever love any
thing?" "Yes."
"Who?"
"No one I mean only a dog. "
"Ohl"
"But he is dead."
"Of course."
"Why 'of course?' "
"Because you loved him. "
The man lit a cigarette. "Do yon be
lieve in heaven?"
"No; if I did, I should have been
dead long ago. I am afraid to die be
- cause I don't know what comes after
death. I so long for for peace fox
something else something beautiful
something to love. Do not laugh. "
"Yon are not a bad woman. "
"Yes, I am. " .
"Then yon ought not to have been
one."
"True. That is the cruel part of it "
They watched the men and women
promenading before them. Then the
woman said, "It is a strange world. "
The man did riot answer. He was
thinking. She continued: "Yon are a
strange person. Where do you live?
What do yon do? How do yon amuse
yourself?"
"Oh, I live alone, quite alone, now
my dog is dead. I watch people. I listen
to what they say, and I think. "
"What do you think?"
"I think that when he whoever 'he
is created men and women he ought to
have made them altogether gods or al
together animals. No one in the world
is happy, because no one is ever certain
whether he or she should live for the
'real' or for the 'ideal. And therefore
men decided to seek for both, to be
sometimes good and sometimes bad, to
play at being gods once a week and
beasts twice a week in faot to live for
the 'real' 6 days out of the 7. And

with large, dreamy eyes. "What-do
yon mean?
"I am going- to make life beautiful

Phosphorescent Light.
Some experiments have been made in
France to determine tbe specific action
of a considerable lowering of tempera
ture upon the brilliancy of certain
bodies which shine in the dark after
having been exposed to sunlight Tubes
of glass filled with the powdered sul
phides of calcium, barium, strontium,
eta, all substances possessing the prop
erty of phosphorescence in a high degree,
were exposed to the solar rays and after
ward proved to be luminous in the dark,
this being done in such a way as - to fix
upon the memory the mean value of the
progressive diminution of the emitted
light and the time also was noted dur
ing which the light was strong, less
strong and weak respectively. The tubes
were next placed in bright sunlight for
one minute and then suddenly intro
duced into a double walled glass cylin
der, the interspace of which was filled
with nitrons oxide at 140 degrees C. In
about five or six minutes the tempera
ture of the tubes was some 100 degrees.
They were then withdrawn, and when
observed in a perfectly dark chamber no
luminosity whatever was perceptibla
As the tubes recovered their normal tem
perature, however, the phosphorescence
returned without the exciting agency
of the snn's rays or of diffused light
These results were proved to be general
for all phosphorescent substances em
ployed. The experiments showed, too,
that the production of the phosphores
cent light requires a certain movement
of the constituent molecules of bodies.

A tall man entered, removing his silk
hat as he did so. He was a handsome
man, and of striking appearance. His
hair, of a light brown hue, inclining to
reddish, was cut rather short, and stood
upright over bis head without any part
ing, m tne French manner. His beard.
also cropped short and pointed at the
chin, was of the same hue; but his eye
brows and eyelashes, and his eyes them
selves were somewhat darker, giving a
peculiar character to his countenance,
scarcely modified by the gold rimmed
eyeglasses that sat astride his handsome
nose. A black double breasted coat was
buttoned round his figure, and his erect
and slightly formal carriage bespoke
military training. His clothes were per
fectly cut, with j ust a suspicion of dandy
ism in tne fashion of the collar and the
design of the scarfpin. But dandyism
in a foreigner is simply "foreign," and
bears no stigma. It was evident at a
glance that Baron Lucien de Lisle was a
gentleman in the most exacting sense of
tne word.
"Good morning, sir," said Tom, glanc
ing from the card in his hand to the visi
tor before him. "Have a chair. Can I
do anything for you?
"I desire it," returned the count. His
voice was quiet and grave and marked
by a Gallic accent, perceptible at first,
but to which one soon became accus
tomed. He spoke English, as Tom soon
noted, quite idiomatically, though with
a more carefnl precision than a native
would use. He sat down, put his hat
and gold headed cane on the book shelf
and began to take off his gloves, which
were of the two button variety, and elab
orately stitched on the backs.
"I am in New York to stay some
time," he continued, "and I wish a
house. The hotel, you comprehend, is
excellent, but not not not" He
made a gesture with bis right hand, on
the finger of which was a large and
beautiful ring.
"Not enough elbow room," Tom sug
gested. "No, I suppose not But, by
the way, I'm not a real estate agent, I'm
a lawyer."
"I comprehend. But I am a stranger
here; I find the customs unfamiliar. I
thought, if I get some one to act for me,
it is more expedient and quicker. 1 pay
each month so much, all is done and I
make no mistake. Am I clear?"
"I understand what you mean," said
Tom, endeavoring to disguise his excite
ment by rubbing his chin and looking
out of the window. "By George!"
thought he to himself, "If this fellow's
as rich as they say, I may make money
ont of him. Wonder how five thousand
a year would strike him? Courage, my
boy! Now or never! You would like
me to take entire charge of your busi
ness affairs while you are here?" he con
tinued aloud. "Well, I suppose some
such arrangement could be made. But
there' d be a great deal of work connected
with it, and prices are high in New
York, you know." He looked np at his
visitor with a smile.
"I shall hope there will be no dis
agreement about that," said the count,
with a slight inclination of the head.
shall submit to your demands; but I had
intended offering you ten thousand dol
lars"
"Ten thousand a year!" exclaimed
Tom, surprised into a jubilant tone. In
a moment his warm Irish imagination
had built a hundred castles in the air.
Pardon me; I Would not expect yon
to accept that, said the count, gravely.
"I had hoped to induce you to give your
time almost wholly to my affairs, and if
ten thousand dollars a month, paid
monthly iu advance, will secure your
services the arrangement will gratify
me."
Tom turned his chair round so as to
face his interlocutor squarely, and looked
at him several moments in silence. "Do
you seriously propose. Count de Lisle,'
he said at length, "to offer to pay me a
salary at the rate of one hundred and
twenty thousand dollars a year?"
The count inclined his head without
speaking.
Well," said Tom, "I'm afraid I ehall
have to decline it.
I should be sorry for that May I
ask why?"
'I ll tell you just what s m my mind.
Such a sum is unheard of. In my pro
fession I've made it a rule never to do
anything that would make me feel on-
comfortable ashamed to look myself in
the face. Yon can get any legitimate
business done for ten thousand a year; at
any rate, I'd do anything that didn't
hurt my conscience for that, or half of
it But ten thousand a month means
that you are after something that is not
legitimate, and I must tell you that
you've come to the wrong place for it?"
The count listened to this speech very
attentively and it evidently pleased him.
I see I have not been misinformed
about you," he said. "I am glad you
have so frankly spoken. When you know
me better you will withdraw your renec-
tion on my motives. I intend no crime;
nothing that your conscience or your
wife would not approve. Mr. Bannick,
I wish you to remain entirely independ
ent You will be at liberty to terminate
our agreement without warning, at the
moment when I suggest anything that
you may disapprove. But yon must
meanwhile let me be judge of the value
of your service. An honest man is not
easy to find, even in New York; and he
is therefore valuable. Yon will have
the management of large interests and
the offer I make you is not more than a
fair commission."
"I can't believe it!" ejaculated Tom.
I mean I bee vour pardon it seems
as if there must be something behind. I
may be a fool, no doubt in fact, that's
a matter of course. I always have been."
Come, Mr. Bannick, let ns not waste
time," said the count, unbuttoning his
coat and taking out his pocketbook.
This is the twenty-fifth day of October.
By the twenty-fifth of November you
will know me well enough to know
whether you desire our relations to con
tinue or not Meanwhile I give you
your salary for that first month. Next
month, if you be not content, we part.
Is that right?"
I have been a noor man most oriny
life," said Tom, clearing bis throat and
no use Dunaine tne race juu us
making me a wonderful proposition. It's
not ordinary business, and I can't ac
count for it. If I had saved your life
and you wanted to reward me for it you
couldn't do more. Such an amount of
money isn't a salary: It's a fortune. I
an'tearn it; it would be a girt, no a :
payment But if you are buying only
my services, and not my soul, Til accept
it- I'll make my services as valuable as
lean."
"If you have not saved my life, per
haps you may some time have done for
eome one a good act for which you were
never recompensed," remarked the count
gently. "And I perhaps take this meane
of discharging an obligation conferred
upon me by some one whom I was una
ble to reward at the time. We must
make use of each other in this way. If
besides your services I gain your friend
ship I shall be still your debtor.
The somewhat formal manner of this
speech did not detract from its evident
sincerity. The count took ten one-thousand-dollar
bank notes from his
pocketbook and laid them on the desk,
observing, "I cashed a check at the bank
just now if the notes will not incon
venience you. Some time today you can
make a receipt, and also draw up a pa
per to give you my power of attorney.
and, if you like, one embodying our
agreement And now," he added, as if
to prevent Tom. from giving expression
to the feelings that were swelling in his
heart, "let us return to what I was say
ing. I have seen a house that will suit
me. I want you to secure it for me.
"Whereabouts is the house?" inquired
Tom.
The count described its location.
"Why that's the Harry Trent house?"
Tom exclaimed. "It's a good honse-r-I
don't suppose there's a better in town
but no one has ever lived in it Do you
know why?"
"Its situation pleased me, and it seemed
to have what you call elbow room.
"The owner, the man who built it,
Harry Trent, was murdered there two or
three years ago. It was a famous case.
I was retained in it myself. It gave the
house a bad name. Do you care for that
sort of thing?"
"No," answered the count simply.
think I have heard of that man," he add
ed, after a pause. "Was he not a mer
chant of diamonds?"
"That was the man. Tall, fresh look
ing, with white hair. An agreeable fel
low. I believe."
"Yes, I have met him. Was he not in
Paris in eighteen hundred and sixty
nine? Yes, the emperor was said to do
some business with him. And he was
murdered, you say? And you were of
the counsel?"
"I appeared for the prisoner." ,
"The man who murdered him, who
was he
"Well, my conviction was then, and is
now, that the prisoner was not the man
who murdered him. Appearances were
against him, but I believe he was inno
cent His name was Keppel Darke, an
artist
"Did'you prove it to the jury?"
"No," Baid Tom with a sigh; "they
found him guilty in the second degree.
He was sentenced to imprisonment for
life. They might as well have hanged
him."
"Why do you say that? If he is inno
cent, it is always still possible that it
may be found so; and then, since he still
lives, it can be made good to him."
"It will never be much good to him,
poor boy! He was killed in a railway
smash as they were taking him to Sing
Sing. He's out of the question. But I'd
like mighty well to get on the trail of
the real murderer. .That would be
worth while still!"
"Have you suspicions on the real one?"
"I can't say I have. Nobody seems to
have benefited by his death. His widow,
to be sure, got his fortune; but she must
have had the use of it while he was alive.
My idea was that Trent had some in
trigue or other that never was known
about, and that that was the cause of
his death. But there's no telling."
"Had he no relations no friends to
whom a part of his fortune might have
been left?"
' 'No blood relations, as far as is known
but well, this was an odd feature of
the case. There was an old lady and
her daughter in whom he was interested,
and I believe they were eome sort of dis
tant cousins of his. It was reported
that he thought of marrying the girl; he
was acting as her guardian, and allowed
the two an income ont of his own pocket
But when he died his will gave them
nothing, not even a continuance of the

"And the will was not contested?"
"No. Miss Raven was sensitive un

"But if he left a widow how was it
that he expected to marry this young
lady?"
"That was a little surprise. The mar
riage had been secret, and wasn t known
till after his death; took place in France
somewhere, I believe. Yes, there were
several queer things about the case.
should have advised following it up.
Still I think the murder was not con
nected with the other questionable feat
ures. It stood by itself."
"The widow is still living?"
"Oh, yes; and if I'm not mistaken she
means to play a big part in society this
winter. She has money enough, and a
good position. I wish the Ravens, poor
things, had had the half of her lack."
' "Ah! and have they met with misfort
unes, then?"
"Well, it's hard enough for a man to
make his way, let alone a couple of
women. The old lady could do noth
ing, except eat and wear clothes; but
the young one had pluck, and she knew
how to draw and how to play the piano.
I advised her taking pupils, and she
jumped at the idea. - I got a few for her,
and she succeeded so well with them
that others came along. But pupils are
not to be had in summer, and she would
be fortunate to make eight hundred a
year. Luckily, I had more room than I
needed in my house, so there was ' no
rent for them to pay, and they are com
pany for my wife when Im away."
"They are living with you, then?"
"At my invitation yes. Miss Raven
insists on paying board; but" here Tom
chuckled "I use it to buy the pictures

NERVOUSNESS.
THE CLASSES OF PEOPLE WHO
SUFFER FROM IT.
Brain Workers, People Who Worry,
and People Who Endure Long
Continued Physical Strain.
From tbe Examiner, San Francisco, Cal.
it is generally agreed that a man s
physioal condition is dependent, to a
great degree, upon the nature of his
employment Men whose occupations
necessitate the constant use of the brain
without any opportunity for physioal
exercise, are generally nervous, while
men employed at manual labor requir
ing no exercise of the brain function
are almost universally possessed of
sound nervous systems, not easily dis
turbed by exciting events.
A striking illustration of this prin
oiple is found in the case of Professor
George E. Coleman, who is a profes
sional pianist, and who was, until with
in recent years, a druggist Professor
Coleman lives at 1330 Buchanan street,
San Francisco. He is well known
here as a pianist, having played at
some of the most popular musio halls in
the city. Mr. Coleman is not a man
of strong frame, and he has been an
easy prey to the severe, nervous tension
of his work at the piano. He has had
to play continuously for several hours
during every evening for five years,
and his nervous system finally gave
way under the strain. He was forced
to retire from regular work at the
piano, but that did not have the effect
of improving his .condition. Upon
the contrary, he steadily grew worse.
His nerves had been shattered, and in
addition he discovered that one of his
lungs had been affected by his having
been exposed to counter draughts in
poorly ventilated halls. His condition
soon became such that he was confined
to his home, and finally gave himself
over to the care of a physician. Mr.
Coleman's experience as a druggist bad
given him an acquaintance with dis
eases and their remedies, so he had a
full knowledge of just what was neces
sary on his part to effect a cure.
"After several weeks' careful treat
ment by the physician," said Mr. Cole
man, "I could notice no improvement
in my condition. If anything, I think
I was considerably worse. The action
of my lungs had become so weak that
I was afraid to walk any distance un
assisted for fear of falling, through loss
of respiration. My nervousness had
advanced to an alarming stage. I was
not able to contain myself for even a
short time, but had always to be f am
bling with something or moving ner
vously about the room. It was while
I was in this condition that 1 noticed
in a paper an artiole on Williams' Pink
Pills. I determined to try them, even
though they killed me. Well, they
didn't kill me, but I'm not going to
tell you that they cured me immedi
ately, my case was much too serious
for that But I had not taken a full
box before I felt a great relief My
respiration was more certain, i was
gradually gaining control of my nerves
and my condition was generally im
proved. I kept right on taking tbe
puis and getting well. Now I had
taken just three boxes of them when
considered myself a cured man. And
I was right, for although I quit taking
the pills, I did not relapse into my for
mer condition, but grew stronger
daily.
It was truly a marvelous cure, and
I will say that I think Williams' Fills
possess remarkable curative properties,
and I would recommend them to the
use of the thousands of people of this
city who are nervous wrecks, or who
are suffering from diseases of the lungs' '

PRACTICAL LOGIC.
To reason from cause to effect U very
good logic in its way, but to practice on
physical conditions iu seeking the cause
first, is a very slow process Indeed. All
ailments seem to give an expression in
pain, and especially in rheumatism where
it takes ho.d deeply. This is an effect
whatever the canoe may be, and pain would
become intolerable if one waited to find
out the cause. Hence sufferers are bent on
curii g the pain promptly, and for this
reason know, or soon find out that tit.
Jacobs Oil is surely the best remedy. Peo
ple seldom have reason to hunt further, for
once this ailment is cured by it, it stays
cured, and thus puts an end to argument
and pain at once.

Erysipelas
Has been my affliction from childhood.
It was can ed by impure blood, and every
spring I was sure to
have a long spell,
and my general
health would give
way. Doctors did
me but little good,
and I became de
spondent. Last
spring erysipelas
settled in my eyes
and I became total
ly blind for several
weeks. Hood's Sar-
eaparilla was recommended, and after tak
ing one bottle my sight gradually returned,
my blood became purified and I was re
stored to good health. With Hood's 8ar
saparilla one is well armed to meet any
foe." Mies Lulu Lek, 144 Market Street,
