LODGE DIRECTORY. MAINE POULTRY HOUSE. BEVERLY OP By George Barr McCutcheon. Author of "Graustark" Copyright, 1904, whs prop:w.iiix it riusiii.'j wimuw to the rriuww Yt:r: ''.). - win playing the Graustark ami Dawsbergen nationul hymns. But it wjis nil aa a dream to her. At last she heard Can- dace calling to her, her face wreathed In smiles. Scores of eyes seemed to be looking at her, and all of them were full of amusement. "Now, say that a girl can't keep a secret," came to her ears from the radi ant sister of Dantan. Rarone. at her Bide, spoke to her, and she turned to him dizzily. v "You first knew me as Rarone, Miss Calhoun," he was saying genially. "Then it became necessary, by royal command, for me to be Prince Dantan. May I have the honor of Introducing myself in the proper person? I am Christobal of Rapp-Thorburg, and I shall be no other than he hereafter. The friendship that binds me to Prince Dantan, at last in his proper place be side the Princess of Graustark, is to be strengthened Into a dearer relationship before many days have passed." "The Princess Candace ceases to be his sister," volunteered the Duke of MIzrox. "She Is and long has been his affianced wife.". Enchanted and confused over all that bad occurred In the last few moments, Beverly murmured her heartfelt con gratulations to the joyous couple. The orchestra had again ceased playing, All eyes turned to Baldos the real Prince Dantan who, glass In band. rose to his feet "Your royal highness, ladles and gentlemen, Graustark and Dawsber- "J have won your love by the fair cut means." gen are entering a new era. I pledge you my honor that never again shall the slightest misunderstanding exist between them. They shall go forth to their glorious destiny as one people. Your gracious ruler has seen fit to be stow her hand and affections upon an American gentleman, your esteemed prince consort. We all know how loy ally the people have approved her choice. There Is one present, a trusted friend of your beautiful princess and lovingly called In your hearts Beverly of Graustark. Whose example more worthy for me to follow than that of the Princess Yetlve? With whom could I better share my throne and please you more than with your beloved Ameri can protege? I ask you to drink a toast to my betrothed, Beverly Calhoun, the future Princess of Dawsbergen." Every glass was raised and the toast drunk amid ringing cheers. The mili tary band crashed out the air so dear to all Americans, especially to south ern hearts. Beverly was too overcome to speak. "You all"- she exclaimed. There was a tremendous commotion In the gallery. People were standing In their seats half frightened and amused, their attention attracted by the unusual scene. A portly negress, totally unconscious of the sensation she was causing, her feet keeping time to the lively strains of music, was frantically waving a red and yellow bandanna handkerchief. It was Aunt Fanny, and in a voice that could be heard all over the banquet hall she shouted: "Good Lawd, honey, ef der ain't playln' 'Away Down South In Dixie!' Hooray! Hooray!" Hours later Beverly was running, confused and humbled, through the halls to her room, when a swifter one than she came up and checked her flight. "Beverly!" cried an eager voice. She Blackened her pace and glanced over her shoulder. The smiling, triumphant face of Baldos met her gaze. The tip per hall was almost clear of people. She was strangely frightened, distress ingly diffident Her door was not far way, and she would have reached It la an Instant later bad he not laid a restraining, compelling hand upon her arm. Then ahe turned to face him, bar lips parted In protest "Don't look at me In that way!" he cried Imploringly. "Cotne, dearest, come with me. We can be alone In the nook at the end of the bail. Heavens, I am the happiest being In all the world. It has turned out as I have prayed It should." She allowed him to lead her to the darkened nook. In her soul she-was wondering why her tongue was so pow erless. There were a hundred things she wanted t" say to him, but now that the moment had come she was voice less. She only could look helplessly at him. Joy seemed to be paralysed with in her. It was as If she slept and could not be awakened. Aa she sank upon the cushion he dropped to his knee before her, his hand clasping hers with a fervor that thrilled her with life. Aa he spoke ber puisea quickened and the blood began to race furiously. toI have won Tour love. Beverly, by V r p Dtxid, Mead tc Co. the fairest means. There li.t.-s :" been an hour in which I luvc i!: l ie. struggling for tliii g!.riiK!s en.!. Vol ga ve yourself to mo when yon kne.v I could be nothing more than the hum blest soldier, It was the saiiiiice of love. You will forgive my presumption my very lino ence. dear one when I tell you that my soul is the forfeit 1 pay. It is yours through all eternity. I love you. I can give you the riches of the world as well as the wealth of the heart. The v.is tbond dies: your poor humb'e follower gives way to the supplicating prince. You would nave lived in a cot as the guardsman s wife. You will take the royal palace In stead." Beverly was herself again. The spell was gone. Her eyes swam witu uappi- ness and love. The suffering her pride had sustained was swept into a heap labeled romance, and she was rejoic ing. "I hated you tonight, I thought," she cried, taking his face In her hands. "It looked as though you had played a trick on me. It was mean, dear. I couldn't help thinking that you bad used me as a plaything, and it It made me furious. But It is different now. I see, oh, so plainly. And just as I had resigned myself to the thought of spending the rest of my life in a cottage, away outside the pale of this glorious life! Oh, It is like a fairy tale!" "Ah, but It was not altogether a trick, dear one. There was no assur-. ance that I could regain the throne not until the very last. Without It I should have been the beggar instead of the prince. We would have lived In a hovel, after all. Fortune was with me. I deceived you for months, Beverly my Beverly but It was for the best. Ia defense of my honor and dignity. however, I must tell you that the prin cess has known for many daj?s that 1 am Dantan. I told her the truth when Christobal came that day with the news. It was nil well enough for uie to pass myself off as n vagabond, but It would have beeu unpardonable to foist him upon her as the prince." 'And she has known lor a week?" cried Beverly in deep th.i,'i in. "And the whole to.:rt h is known." "I alone was blind';" "As blind as (;) proverh. Thank (Jod, I 110:1 your love us a vagabond. I can treasure it as the richest of my irmeeiy possessions. You have not uid that you will go to my castle with me, dear." She leaned forward unsteadily, and Ue took her in his eager arms. Their lips met. and their eyes closed in the ecstasy of bliss. Alter a long time she lifted her lids, and her eyes of gray looked solemnly Into his dark ones. "I have much to ask you about, many explanations to demand, sir," she said threateningly. "By the rose that shields my heart you shall have the truth," he laughed back at ber. "I am still your servant My enlistment is endless. I shall al ways serve your highness." "Your highness!" she murmured re flectively. Then a joyous smile of realization broke over her face. "Isn't It wonderful ?" "Do you think your brothers will let me come to Washington now?" he ask ed teaslngly. "It does seem different doesn't It?" she murmured, with a strange little smile. "You will come for me?" "To the euds of the earth, your high ness." THE END. CURE YOUR KIDNEYS. Do Not Endanger Life When a Suf ferer Shows You the Cure. Why will people continue to suffer the Hgonies of kidney complaint, backache, urinary disorders, lameness, headaches, languor, why allow themselves to he come chronic invalids, when a certain cure is offered them? Doan's Kidney Pills is the remedy to use, because it gives to the kidneys the help they need to perform their work. If you have any, even one, of the symptoms of kidney diseases, cure your self now, before diabetes, dropsy or Bright's disease sets in. Mrs. L. Hod8on, of 717 Aura St., Pendleton, Ore., says: "I just as en thusiastically endorse Doan's Kidney Pills today as I did nearly three years ago. They relieved me of kidney trouble which had bothered me for a consider able time. There was aehinf? pain across the small of my back and down through my kidneys, which were aggra vated by colds which settled in the back and loins and caused an awful lameness. This was my condition when I began taking Doan's Kidney Pills. This rem edy banished the backache and pains through the loins, regulated the kidney secretions and removed every symptom of the trouble. From that day to this there hai been no recurrence, and I give Doan's Kidney Pills all the credit. I consider them to be the best kidney remedy procurable and recommend them whenever the occasion arises." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milhurn Co., Buffalo, X.

In determining the type of fowl house which Is apt to best serve Its purpose It Is always well to bear In mind that, without reference to the climate in which the structure is to be used. It Is desirable that It be Insulated thereby enabling the owner to control the ventilation. For that reason the Maine type of henhouse Is apt to be pretty close to the right thing, ine building shown In the . Illustration is popular throughout the coldest por tions of New England and would be equally valuable fn any portion of North America. It Is true that the shingling of the sides entails an expense to which many poultrymen do not feel nt first warranted in going, but In the end the plan Is a great money saver, as these houses, If the shingles are properly treated before being applied, are prac tically indestructible. The side of the AN ECONOMICAL HENHOUSE. house containing the windows of course faces the south. There is a ventilator In the very peak of the building. This comes down to near the second floor, in the middle of which there is an open ing to the first floor. Thus there is al ways abundance of veutilatlon with out the possibility of drafts. The Sv"c- ond floor makes an admirable place In which to store litter, or it may be used as a pigeon loft. The floor of the house proper is of concrete if the build ing r-'trts on the ground, but if it Is elevated, which is the better plan, it la of double boards, with tarred felt be tween Jiem, thus making it absolutely rat ptcof. The uses to which such a structure may be put ami the varia tions 1 pou the general plan herewith illustrated are almost without number. Poultry Short Cut. "Fanner" Vincent in Farm Journal (Philadelphia) wisely says: When the combs of the fowls begin to droop and look pale and limp, better sort tlmm out and got hens with nice, bright combs. It isi the singing heu that does a good day's work. Sanie way with men folks. The beef trust is leading us to trtwt more and more in hens. Change the diet of the hens often. None of us likes to live all the time on pudding nd milk, good as they are. About the surest way to fail is to crowd too many hens into one pen. It never paid. It never will. Kind of hard work to wash eggs, but they look so much better when you offer them for sale! Keep Ihe doors closed at night This Is the time of the year when enemiea of the biddies prowl around. Use some animal food every day, but have it good. Hare the feed boxes high enough from the floor so that you can sweep under them. Sure to be a lot of litter there. Hens do not like to pick their shells out of a box half full of straw and cobs. Keep the shells clean by put ting the box up where the litter will not get into it. Expect to learn something about the chickens every day. The Old Time "Pip." Pip is just one symptom in disease. It is just a dry tongue. Never try to remove the dry covering of the tongue. Better hunt the real trouble and cure that. A "pippy" tongue is seen in bronchitis, pneumonia in fact,. In all diseases of the air passages, says a writer in American Poultry Advocate. One thing I am sure of that is, that boiled potato skins never produce trou ble. I see no reason to think that there Is drying quality enough In these skins when fed raw to give the looks of pip. Bpnrvy In Poultry. Scurvy 1 something like eczema, sorehead or other like ailments. Some call It white comb in poultry. It comes from an ailment of the blood. It is very difficult to cure. A thorough treatment with epsom salts, iron and quinine tonics for a numler of months might remove the ailments. It does not Injure them otherwise, unless the sore places become lacerated and can ker. When this comes, they should not be used for food. A fiood Dry Mnh. The following ration is a very satis factory dry mash: Twenty pounds wheat bran and-Jen pounds each corn meal, middlings, gluten meal, linseed meal and Iwef scrap, the whole thor oughly mixed. Keep this before the birds all the time in a food hopper. Also give one or two feeds a day of corn, wheat and oats, equal parts, fed In deep litter. Give vegetable food and green stuff freely. I'mbdni Geeae. Embden geese are of German origin. The city of Eiubden was In an early day the central place for marketing the geese of the country; hence the name of this breed. Standard weights: Gander, twenty pounds; young gander, eighteen pounds; adult goose, eighteen pounds; young goose, sixteen poirada. Plumage color, pure white. A generous ration of salt should be fed the cattle whose ration consists largely of corn fodder. The salt not only Increases their appetite for the fodder, but enables them to digest and assimilate it much more readily. It Is usually the type of folks who are superstitious about undertaking enterprises on Friday who are the most likely to buy largely of the for eign fruit tree agent or squander their hard earned dollars in fake mining In vestment companies. Superstition and gullibility usually trot hand la hand. Masonic Calendar. Jennings Lodge, .No. , stated communications, Second and Fourth Fridays of each month G. L. Hawkins, W. M. J. C. Havtkr, Seo.
