y, BUT your mornln' glories do
look nice, Mia Phemeyl Wish
you'o save me tome seed often that
o4
white one." It wan Mrs. Kidley com'
tag up the walk.
"I will, Mia' Ridley. Come in and
et down. There's a pa'm leaf on the
lounge, an' mebbe you'll take a glass
of cool water. It's a scorchin' morn
ing." eaid Miss Pucniey.
"I would like a drink, thank you,"
responded Mrs. Ridley. "Seems like
when anybody's fat aa I am, they just
get bet up like a coal store. My, that
tastes good. You got a grand well,
Miss Pheniey."
Ths hostess smiled a flattered smile,
but before she could speak Mrs. Ridley
went on: "I brought over three of
Mr. Ridley's vests, Mixa Phemey, to get
you to mend 'em. He's bu'sted 'em
ever' one right down the back, f r all
the world like a seven-year locust, I
tell 'lm, an't seems like I got no time
to fix 'em, with Emma May gittin'
married next week. We're Just llvlii'
In a regular whirlwind, an' sorry as
I'll be to see Emma May go nut that
I don't like Charlie Fonte, but you
know what 1 mean I cert'ney shall be
glad when all this funs Is over."
"I sxpect it Is trying," sympathised
Miss 1'hsmey. "liut Kmma May'a al
ways been a good daughter, an' abe
deserves a fine weddin'."
" Taln't that 1 don't want her to
have It," said Mrs. Kid ley, hastily.
"Hut I'm Just dog-tired this mornln'
(or the land sokes, It's half-past ten
o'clock already; I got to go. You
bring them vesta over when they're
done, Miss l'hemey, an' I'll pay you
f'r 'em. I'd aend one o' the boys over,
but Emma May wants you to come per
tickler an' see her presents, so'll be
klllln' two birds with one stone." Kite
chuckled comfortably aa she stepped
outside the door.
Miss l'hemey looksd after her de
parting form with resentful stare.
"Yes," she muttered, "she can get Miss
Maxwell to make Kmma May's weddin'
slothes, but I'm good enough to mend
up Jim Uldley's old vests. I'll charge
her II cents apiece, see 'f I don't;
that'll be 4 cents. Does seem a good
bit to chsrge f'r memlln' three vests."
"Emma May wants you to come per
ticklcr to see her presents! Tain't
no hint; oh, nol Bally lUclley needn't
''troubled herself to say that. I got
present for Emma Mny, an' I'm going
to glye It to her. I'd like to get even
i with them, the whole kid band of 'era.
Jest aa If I couldn't 'a'made Kmma
May's weddin' elo'sl They tell me
Miss Msxwell uses a chain-stitch ma
chin. I always did say chaln-etltch
maohinea waa made for the earelnss,
, an' I don't see no reason to change my
wind. Well, 'pon word, this vest ain't
on'y bu'sted, but frayed Int' the bar
fain." Miss Phemay fell briskly to
Be wing.
The next day; despite the threaten
ing rumble of a distant storm, Miss
l'hemey dressed In her best and start
ad toward the Bidlsys, carefully car
rying two packages. She was gra
ciously received by Emma May, a firt,
fair girl of pleasant mien and placid
disposition.
"I brought home them Tests," ex
plained Miss l'hemey; "and here,
Emma May, la . a little present I
brought for you. It'll be nlre fr your
dining-room table, I thought." She
held out a small whit pasteboard
box, with an expression of the heap-kig-coale-of-ftra
kind.
"Ms," called Kmma May, "come here;
Miss Pheruey'a brought me a butter
knlf.il Wialit you'd look I That eer
t'usy Is beautiful."
"It's solid silver," said the donor,
proudly. "My niece down to New
York got It for me." Bin received the
thanks, delivered a trifle eiuharraaaed
ly, of mother and daughter, with po
lite coolness.
When the bride-elect Invited her to
an Inspection of the presents. Miss
l'hemey looked them over and made
few comments. She turned the set of
silver Swons, "resented by the
groein's parents," so that the plate
mark was visible, and she UpM-d the
globe of a gaudy chiua lamp with the
remark that they were )ust two dol
lars and thirty-nine cent down to
llcedhstn's. When she had looked at
all, she said, cheerfully;
"Now I want to see your clothes,
Emma May."
Mr. and Mrs. Ridley exchanged
glances of annoyance, but th latter
led the way to Uie spar room, where,
on bed and chair, Iny the creations of
Miss Maxwell, "City Modiste."
There wss the whit silk wadding
dress, the tan traveling dress, soms
odd waists, a black sutin, stiff with
Jet, and a "tea gown." No girl in a
country town marries without these
last Indispensable garments; they
are the real backbone of the trous
seau. Miss l'hemey looked at the display,
felt the quality of the material, and
examined the despised chaln-etitrh-ing,
without a word. At last she
said, plrasnutly conscious of paying
old scores:
"If I might persoom to criticise, I
really do think it's a pity you got

Miss Phemey walked home slowly
Even the thought of the darts six
had planted in Mrs. Ridley's capa
cious breast brought her no real
comfort, when the vision of th
snowy wedding dress rose before her
"Things ain't edge even yet," shi
murmured. A low growl of thundei
startled her, and she hostened lnt
the house to shut out the rutting
flare of the lightning. When th
kettle boiled she set her lonely tablt
and made tea. The quick thump oi
heavy raill drops on the roof modi
her start nervously. Niifht hoc

Supper was over, Miss l'hemey sat Ir

o'clock the rsln censed, and she flunf
the shutters open. The star wen
shinlnir now. The air otitsidu vai
cool and damp and fragrant. Shi
looked over toward the Ridley homo
and as she did so their last light went
out. Miss l'hemey strained her ry-i
to no avail. All was darkness there
"I'm n-ifoin' to do it," she suif
aloud, determinedly. Roiiinging nvci
the table, she found a pair or scl
sors. She took a match from lh
box beside the window and unlocked
the door. The moon was creeping up
a flat disk of pale yellow. Mist

saw that she still wore her bexl
dress. "It'll be all drabbled," ahf
thought; then, recklessly: "I don't
core, nohow."
Rhe brushed against the drippinp
flowers beside the garden path, one
held her breath as the gnte gave s
whining er-enk. Out on the. mail
walking noiselessly, she went. One)
she heard a team coming nni
crouched In a corner of the wore
fence, behind a little gum tree sprout
till It was past. She recognized tht
doctor's rig, ami her heart come n
In her throat and beat there with
great frlghtNiied leaps; but he passed
by and safely sh crept on.
At lost, after a seemingly unending
Journey, she reached the Ridley's
irate. The maples threw deep Blind
ows, and, so, sheltered, she reached
the house. Round to the left wing
slowly slowly and the window was
still open I Bhe stopped and looked In
The moonlight lay In patches on the
floor, the dresses spread upon the
bed, and there, within reach. It fell
full upon the wonderful pearl liead
lug of the wedding dross and mode
scintillating lights. Miss Phemey
saw all thla, and slowly slowly her
hand went out toward those glisten
log beads. A quick jerk, and the
Waist of Kmma May Ridley's wedding
dress lay across her knees. Khe
sought the seam In th middle of the
bock. Rhe could feel the despised
chain stitching, and she slipped her
fingers deftly along toward the col
lor. What was this? A loose end of
thread a little pull r-l-l-l l-lp-ll
was done. In a spnsin of fenr MIhs
l'hemey hustled the waist through
the window, back into phic( nnd ran
Into the concealing shallow. Out to
the gate, down the road again she
was almost home. Suddenly she
Stopped and gave a little cliurklci.
"Them bastln's'll hold it together
10 nobody'll s'spect lucky she left
'em In. I)ut when Kmma May puts I
on, big an' fat as she Is, It'll bu'st
square up ths bock like a frog." She
couldn't help laughing at the Idea; It
tickled her fancy so. Rhe forgot her
wet feet, her draggled, muddy skirts
and went to bed with a smile still
pulling at the corners of her mouth
The next morning the exposure
had done Its work. Rhe was bourne
and feverish, and there was a sharp
pain that stahlxid her at every
breath, "Threatened with pneu
monle," the doctor said, and coin
mantled her not to stir from her bed,
though she eould not have done so
had she wished. The neighbors were
very kind, and attended her faithful
ly, and the tenth day found her sit
ting up, very weak and frail, but with
life in her eyes and voice.
Mrs. Emerson, the town goaid)
came In and brought a bundle.

BURIAL OF LINCOLN.
Unknown Incident of the Contro
versy Over Place of Interment.
Cllaaax Reached While the Faaeral
Cortose Waa Kb Iloele to the
Tuaib Attempt la il th
llodr Removal.
Among the thousands of visitors at
Canton during President McKinley's
funeral ceremonies were a couple of
white-haired men from the capital of
Illinois, and as they watched the
stately pageant winding to the tomb
they recalled the buriul of Lincoln,
and tol.l a strange tale of an incident
unknown to the present generation,
says the Chicago Chronicle.
When President Lincoln was assas
sinated, his brother-in-law, C. M
Smith, was In New York buying
goods, and ha hastened to Washing
ton to eonfer with Mrs. Lincoln re
garding the Interment of her hus
band's body. Mr. Kmit.h immediately
wired Dr. Henry Wohlgemuth, who
was president of the Oakridge ceme
tery, that Mrs. Lincoln desired the
body taken to Springfield and laid lu
receiving vault until permanent ar
rangements could be madu. Dr.
Wohlgemuth suggested that six acres
In the cemetery be set apart for the
president's last resting place, which
was acted upon und later the deed
made out to the Lincoln monument
association.
Mr. Lincoln' desires were com
municated to the city eotincil of
Springfield, which promptly deter
mined to Ignore her wishes on the
ground that the president belonged
to the nation and that Its claim was
paramount to sny family right. The
council Immediately negotiated for
the Innd on which the state build
lug now stands, agreeing to pay $50,
OIK) for the pro)erty. They proceeded
to build a temporary tomb on the
northeast corner, fronting on Second
street. Men worked on It day nnd
iiiM to get It finished In time for
the funeral.
When Lincoln's body reached Chi
cago, Dr. Wohlgemuth went to ine
Treimrnt house to lay the matter bo-
fore Itobert T. Lincoln, General
Hooker, Judge lavls, and the ltev.
Mr. (iourley, and learn definitely
whether the remains would te in
terred nt the new tomb or at Oak
ridge. Naturally they were very
much stirred by the dix-tor's infor
mation, and (ien. Hooker wired tho
facts to Secretary of War Stanton,
and lu 34) minutes the answer came
that Mrs. Lincoln's wishes would le
carried out ami the body taken to
Onkridge.
Dr. Wohlgemuth returned to
Springfield with this nu-imiue to the
council, but the flniHhiug of the new
tomb went on with all popuiilde dis
patch, l'reaident Lincoln's remains
were taken to Springfield and lay In
state In the old stiitehouse, which Is
now used aa the courthoiine.
tin the day of the funeral thou
snuilM of people were in line. An im
mense crowd gathered at. the new
tomb to wait the proccKHion, while
comparatively few enplc had the
courage to wait for thu coming of
the Imdy to Oak ridge. The escort

the statelxiuse, facing Washington
street, und moved west, with lien.

and, notwitliHtanding the solemnity
of the hour, more than one heart

The cortege moved slowly sh far as
Fourth street, where it was expected
Hint the procession would file by left

ll was a crushing humiliation to
the opposing faction, but an act of
Justice, fur the desire of the wife was
paramount to that of the state. Dr.
Wohlgemuth audited in lowering the
rollln, and afterward cut the rope in
to souvenirs for the eager throng.
President Lincoln's body lay three
mouths In the tomb under military
guard, when It was transferred to a
temporary tomb, where it remained
until the monument waa completed.
After an attempt to steal the body
It was moved at night and laid In a

SPIKED EIS TREES.
Btela Haa Adepts Hov.l xfetkoa te
leva Ills Timber froas
Twleves.
In Washington, Me., la tract of
1,000 acres from which the sprue and
pine timber ho all been cut In the
past 35 years.
The tract was formerly owned by
the father of the late Judge Uiohard
D. Uice, of Augusta, who for several
rears was a prominent member of the
Maine supreme court, report the
New York World.
At the time of th death of the
elder Itlce no timber had been out
from the land except what had been
stolen by timber thieve, who then
inflated the state.
Ta intensive had this thievery be
come et one time tJiat Uice deter
mined to put a stop to it and to that
end he employed a blacksmith to
make a great number of iron spikes
He had two of these spike Inserted
on on either side. In each of th
most valuable tree on the tract, and
upon each spike wa stamped hi lid
tints: "W. K."
After this the mill men, who gen
erally knew where their logs came
from, would not take any that they
suspected of being from the Kice
lands, for fear that the teeth of their
sows would lie knocked off against
the "W. II." spikes. Not being able
to sell the logs, the thieves quit steal
ing from Klce s land.
Some years later, when the land
wss elesred of timber by Its new own
era, the story of the spikes wo re-
celled. It was concluded that Woe
hlnckamith could not reach higher
than seven feet from the ground and
so the operators sawed off the treet

The man who stands on stilta doe, not increase his stature a parti
cle. He may feel taller -while he's on the stiltt, but when he's off
them he feels shorter than he erer felt A man can't live on stilt ;
he must come off them sooner or later, and then he realizes that
whatever seeming advantage he gained from hi artificial elevation
was only temporary.
Stimulants are tho stilts of the stomach. They lift a man up for
the time being, but the good feeling they give in only temporary. A
man can't live on stimulants, and when he leaves them he feels worse
than ever. In this age of hurry and worry a large percentage of the
population have some form of stomach " trouble," popularly de
scribed as " weak stomach." The first impulse of the average man
whose stomach is "weak" is to have recourse to stimulants. He
feels bloated after eating, has frequent eructations and a general .
feeling of physical diHcomfort. He takes a glass of something to
"stimulate his stomach " and make him "feel good." He may get
the desired result for a time, but he is doing nothing for the disease
which is in reality aggravated by stimulants instead of benefited.
The need of the " weak" stomach is strength, and it is obvious that
stimulants can't strengthen tho stomach because there is no true
strength in stimulants but only a false strength. ' Tho jaded horse is
no stronger becauso he mends his pace when pricked by the spur.
His extra effort is a drain upon the reserve of his vitality, which may
result in a complete breakdown. The seeming strength of stimulants
is tho false strength of a body spurred to effort and making a call on
the reserve of vitality, which may and does often result in total
physical collapse.
The success of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery in re-establishing
the health of weak, run-down, dyspeptic men and women is
due to the fact that it perfectly and permanently cures diseases of
the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. It does
not brace up but builds up the body. It contains no alcohol and is
entirely free from opium, cocaine and other narcotics.
"Last spring, early, I wrote you my feelings and condition," say Mr. A. J.
Vsnderwater, of 873 West Division Street, Chicago, Ills., "and you advised me
to take Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. In all I have taken six bottles
of the ' Discovery ' and four or five vials of the little ' Pellets. ' They have
done me worlds of good. All my friends say : ' Vsnderwater, how well you
are looking. What in the world have you been doing?' I tell them I have
been doctoring with Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y. ' Why,' they say, ' you
haven't been there?' 'No,' I say, 'but I took his 'Golden Medical Discovery'
and his little ' Pellets.' These medicines have made the great change in me ':
from a slow mope of a man tliat could hardly crawl, tired and sick all the
time, and who could do no work, to a man who can work, sleep, eat, and feel
fine, and that tired feeling all gone away. I am very thankful that I wrote
to Dr. Pierce. Hit 'Golden Medical Discovery' and his little 'Pellets' have
almost made a new man of me. .. I feel as young as I did at thirty years. No
other doctor for me, only Dr. Pierce."
" It is with pleasure that I tell you what Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and
' Pellets' have done for me," writes Mrs. T. M. Palmer, of Peede, Kaufman Co., Texas.
"Two years ago I was taken with stomach and bowel trouble. Everything I ate would
put me in distress. I lived two weeks on milk, and even that gave me pain. I felt as
though I would starve to death. Three doctors attended me one said I had dyspepsia,
two said catarrh of the stomach and bowels. They attended me (one at a time) for one
year. I stopped taking their medicine and tried other patent medicine; got no better,
aud I grew bo weak and nervous my heart would flutter. I could not do any kind
of work. Now, since using your medicines, I can do nty housework very well ; am
gaining in Jiesh and strength, and can eat anything I want."
No man can be Btronger than bis stomach. When disease fastens on the
stomach- and other organs of digestion and nutrition, the consequences are
felt by the wholo body. A " weak " stomach means a weak man, because
when the stomach is "weak "the digestive and assimilative powers fail to a
f reater or less extent, and the nutrition of the body is inadequate to its needs,
tut if "weak" stomach means weak man, then weak man means "weak"
heart, " weak " kidneys, " weak " liver, " weak " lungs, etc., because the phys
ical man is only the sum of his organs and members, and his weakness is
the weakness of each and all of the organs of bis body.
This fact explains tho cures of " weak " heart, kidneys, liver, lungs and other
organs, by the use of " Golden Medical Discovery." First the diseases of the
stomach and other organs of digestion nnd nutrition are cured, and thus the
weak stomach is made strong. Digestion nnd assimilation are now perfect.
The nutrition derived from food is all used, and not partly lost or wasted.
The effects aro at onco shown in physical gain. Tho body puts on sound flesh
