Toledo Times-Bee. i 11 1 1 sr TRIL THORNTON waa abeo tfjj luteljr broke to toe world. Not the ordinary want of a "fiver" brokennesa, but the real downright thing, for be bad not a penny In the world. More than that be had no belongings which be could deposit with his avunc ular relative for a valuable considera tion. More than that be had not even n attic to sleep In Neither wine nor card brought htm to this stage, but pure, unadulterated bad luck. A gentleman by birth, and with a luxurious bringing up, he had found himself suddenly thrown on his own resources. It waa a beautiful morning In June London waa filled with fashionable people, and from some feeling of "cussedness" Cyril went to church pa rade In the park. Bis shabby clothes did not worry blin, for be had no falae sense of pride. Be walked listlessly along, watching tha fairest collection of feminine beauty that the world holds. Cyril al .ways had an eye to the beautiful The crowd waa thinning away when he saw ahead of him an elderly man of aristocratic appearance. By bis side walked a young girl with the loveliest face that ha had ever seen. The man signaled a coachman, and victoria pulled np near the curb. At tha girl waa entering the car rlage, Cyril aaw something glitter from bar wrist and fall Into the road. Be waa Just hurrying to pick It up when tha carriage rapidly drove away. Be quickly stooped down and saw a magnificent diamond bracelet, In the center of which was a big black pearl. With a harried movement he thrust tt Into Ms pocket and looked hastily round. No one had observed the Inci dent Ha slept In tha park that night and wrestled with a mighty temptation. HI better thoughts were vanquished, and the following morning ha pawned the bracelet with a confiding pawn broker for fifty pounds. In a tew Cays be sailed for the Cape. These were tha early day a of mines, and good luck followed him right through. Within three months he had redeemed the bracelet Ills next step waa to advertise in the agony column of the Timea: "Will the lady who lost a diamond bracelet set with a black pearl In June last in the park kindly communicate with o. T- Box xr For many weeks he bad this in serted in papers, but no answer came. Aa the months passed Cyril's success Increased with great strides. All his Investments turned out well; and peo ple began to look upon him as a com lng man. mv . !.- 1ft... which were worth comparatively little were raiaed to enormous prices. Cyril realtied when the excitement waa - highest and returned to England a mil lloualre. Of course, people made a fuss over him, for he was young, good-looking, immensely wealthy and an Englishman etrangely enough. But Cyril was not a happy man. Tha bracslet still weighed on bis con THE COUNTY FAIR SEASON IN FILL BLAST. science. It was to try and find Its owner that ha accepted the invitations which society pressed upon him. For a whole season be searched for her, but without success. Be got tired of tha adoration which waa flung at him or rather his millions; so he, one day, packed up his portmanteau and went Into the country. Ilia destination waa a quiet little inn near Dartmoor, which he had known In the days of his youth. One afternoon he was casting a fly along one of the streams that abound on the moors. Be turned a corner and a sight greeted him which made bis pulse throb madly. Buge bowlders studded with bloom ing heather formed a background. At tbelr foot a piece of green, and lying asleep, with her head on a cushion and a rod by her side, waa the girl for whom be had been In search. Be approached closer. She was sleep ing soundly. Quickly he drew the braceK from his pocket, where he al ways carried It With gentle touch he placed It round ber wrist and snapped it She moved In her sleep, end he hastened away. Be looked round, and she was again sleeping peacefully. Cyril bad restored the bracelet to Its owner, but with the bauble he had given his heart To maka up his mind was to act It did not take him long to discover that aha waa Lady Allclt Doveraford, and that she lived with her father at Doveraford Court. Be was also pleased to hear that the earl waa exceedingly poor. Again be chanced to meet ber when aha waa fishing. She approached him at once. "Can you lend me a 'black gnat?" ahe aaked him in a sweet voloe that thrilled him. With trembling fingers he produced the By. Cyril waa not in the mood to make ha ate slowly. They met again, and he flattered himself she waa pleased to see him. Next he wrote to the earl and aaked permission to Inspect the famous pic tures (they were hearlooms and could not be sold) at tha castle. Be chanced to be walking through the grounds of the caatle after seeing tha pictures. Be took a aeat at the foot of a bowlder, and was startled to bear two voices speaking.

As usual, there Is loud complaint from farmers that the children brought up on the farm are getting uneasy and want to try their wings elsewhere. This is not to be wondered at when these young people hear and read of what is going on In the world. The monotony of country life teems unbear able to them, especially when from the farm they obtain only plenty of bard work, the food they eat and the clothes tbey wear. True, one may say that is about all any one gets out of Ufa, but If we can plan some way by whlcb the young people can make a start for themselves they will be much more contented. Foultry offers a way of trying out the feeling of the young folks at small expense. Olve them a chance to raise poultry and have the proceeds for their own use, and In a year .or two they will have become reconciled to coun try life and be willing to make It their future or they will have shown their utter lack of adaptability for It In which case the best thing for them and for the parent Is to let them leave the farm and take up the work for which they are better fitted, but don't loae your grasp on the young people without first giving them a chance to do for themselves on the farm and show what is in them. Indianapolis News. U8E8 FOB OtD PAPER. Some Ie Made Over-Utilized by the Different Trades. "New nses for old paper are being found almost dally by the different trades and by people who have a little ingenious torn of mind," said a. local Junk dealer In the Washington Star. "You don't see much waste paper thrown away nowadaya and when yon consider the great amount that la dal ly accumulating it teems remarkable. The newspapers are reeling off tons of paper every day. All this great quantity of paper must be destroyed or used. There are eager scavengers of the city after every stray paper and bundle of wrapping paper. If it were not to the street-cleaning department would have to organize a special corps of men Just to collect newspapers and burn them. "Most of the newspapers are gath ered up and converted Into marketable paper again and some go in with the the rags to make various kinds of commercial material; but outside of these two lines of industry the paper is made Into different useful articles of a wonderful nature. The newspa pers are made of the spruce pulp, and by a steaming process tbey can be re converted into a smaller pulp again. This pulp Is not to good as In the first Instance and no one has yet found a way to make It possible to use It over again for newspaper work. Bowever, it it chewed and steamed tip and it used for many other purposes. Wood pulp neveltles, lead pencil holders, pa per weights and ash receivers are manufactured from this waste paper. Of course, there art experienced workers In waste paper and some of them are working on problems which appear very easy of solution, but which in reality art most difficult For instance, what teems easier than to use the paper over again for printing? Why not boll and steam your waste paper and roll It through machinery Into new theete for the daily presses? Nothing appears at first sight easier, but there is nothing that seems to give back to the paper the life which the process of printing takes from It It It dead paper. It lacks vitality, strength, finish, and it is mixed with inks and chemicals If any man can rejuvenate the paper and make it fit for the presaea over and over again he will make a fortune and revolution ize the printing business. What a boon tt would be to the newspaper to run Its waste paper back again and buy in old copies of the early editions for use in the Sunday edition! Yet I firmly believe that some day we will come to that Then the price of news paper will go down. No paper com pany can control tha market of spruce trees then to force tip the price of cheap-grade paper. It will be a benefit to the publishers and the reading pub lic as well. To-day papers are print ed and sold at a penny a copy almply because papermaklng hot cheapened the process to such a wonderful ex tent but we have not yet reached the limits. There ara more Improvements ahead which the present generation has far from anticipated." EVANGELIST WHIPPED BULLY. Then Bad Him on the Front Bench at the Heating- that Night. A Methodist minister of this city tells the following story about the lata Bam Rozel, the great Virginia evange list, who in his day was one of tha best-known pulpit orators in the South: "Sam Rozel waa a very big man and had a wide reputation for physi cal strength. In his college days he came off the field of oombat, usually a circumscribed and secluded area of the campua, wearing the laurel of vic tory on many occasions, and after he became a preacher stories of bis physi cal prowess were spread far and near. "One day he went to a village to hold a protracted meeting. The vil lage blacksmith, who waa a very big man, and who was recognised, espe cially among the tavern habitues, as a pugilistic wonder, beard about the com ing of Rosel, and the villagers did not fall to tell him all they had heard abont the size of the parson's arm and the length of his legs, and the con vincing way he had of closing-his ar guments with his fists. "All this nettled the smith consid erably, so when Rozel reached the town he sought him out and aaked him to fight. "Rozel, of course, said he did not want to fight; but the smith kept on Insisting, and finally Rozel became an gry and agreed to gratify the fellow. They fought Rozel literally wip ed up tha ground with the big man. When he had pounded him until the poor, vanquished bully was gasping bard, Rozel picked him up and threw him over a fence. "The blacksmith had not said a word since affray began up to this point As he rolled over on the other side of the fence, however, he called out: " 'Say, parson, kindly throw my horse over, .too; I'm going away.' "But Rozel followed tha man to his home, and had him sitting on a front bench at the meeting that same night, singing louder than anyone else." Baltimore Sun. As a Deodoriser "The perfumery buslneas never was better," aald the perfume dealer the other day. "I sell more perfume than I ever did before, and I think my beavy sales are due in a large part to the automobile craze. "You know the odor emanating from those gasoline autos are not pleasant. Lovely woman doea her best to over come It by using lots of perfume. Just take notice the next time an auto whizzes by you and see If you don't Ket a good, strong whiff of perfume with the gasoline if there is a smartly attired woman In the machine. "Women may be going in for ath letics more than ever, but they are going in for perfumes, too, and the most expensive kind. "It would surprise you, though, to know how many men bar the per fumery habit aa well. I think the new fancy silk handkerchiefs may have something to do with that A Strong Recommendation.
