GUIDEBOOK ?

O-C-O-O-O-O-OC
How It did rain! Barbara pressed her
woeliegono face against the window
poiio and strained her eyes In n vain
ciejjFMH' to catch a glimpse of the
gleaming white of the distant monu
ment. She hml been In the beautiful
capital of her country nearly twenty
hours, and she had seen nothing—nhao-
lutely nothing—of it. Nearly twenty
hours of the few precious days of her
visit gone in impotent, heartbreaking
waiting for Jupiter l’hivius to exhaust
himself and retire in favor of old Sol.
As a fresh gust of wind 4rove a vol
ley of raindrops in n yet fiercer on
slaught against the glass and dashed
them in scurrying streams down the
dripping asphalt the girl’s head drooped
despairingly and she sighed.
The young man who for some time
had been watching her sympathetically
over Ids book now threw it aside and
stepped to the other window.
“What a day!" ho said ns the ivy,
clinging desperately to tiie wall, was
tossed hither and thither by the bois
terous wind.
The girl’s face brightened, and sho
turned to him impetuously.
“Oh, thank goodness you have spoken
nt last! I wns going to start the con-
vorsatlonnl ball myself. I simply
couldn't stand the silence nny longer.
I>o you know I have not uttered one
word this morning since I ordered my
breakfast. It’s an unprecedented rec
ord, but the strain has lieen awful."
She dimpled roguishly, and a faint flush
rose In her check. Ho might think her
very Ixilil, tills handsome young stran
ger, but she really eouhl not help it.
The limit of her silent endurance had
been reached. She must speak or—per
ish.
But the Idea of boldness never enter
ed the young man's head. He was
thinking how very pretty she wns, how
soft and curly her lialr, how piquant
her dimpled smile and how becoming
the little tinge of pink in her round
cheek. Ho laughed in comprehending
sympathy.
"Why, I wanted to speak to you long
ago, hilt didn't like to venture. Isn’t
It the very dickens of a day? Who
could go sightseeing In tills?” as a
fresh fury rattled the windows.
The girl's face fell again.
“Who. Indeed?” sho echoed disconso
lately. "Think of coaxing all winter
for just throe days of Washington and
having the whole of one of them like
this!"
"It is rather rough,” said the young
man. "I'm in precisely the same box
myself—that Is, for coaxing, read man
aging. Blit It only increases one's ago
ny to look at It. Won't you sit down?”
He turned u rocking elmlr with its
back to the window, and as Barbara
dropped into It ho throw himself lido
the sofa corner opposite.
"Is this your lirst visit to Washing
ton?" ho asked.
"My very first. Father comes hero
on business every spring, hut lie hates
to he bothered, and I could never per
suade him to bring me before. Ho
poked bis bead into my room before I
wns lip tills morning to say that ho
would probably not see me uguln to
day ns he bad oceans of business to
do and an official dinner tonight, and
he enjoined mo most emphatically not
to think of going out as long ns It
ruined. I have written letters to every
one I cun think of, und if it doesn’t
clear after luncheon I’ll go to bed!”
The young man laughed and looked
nt bis watch.
“Why, it’s a quarter to 2,” he said.
“Suppose we have luncheon now, if
you will honor mo, und perhaps the
outlook will be brighter by the time
we have finished."
The girl rose with alacrity.
“I’m ravenous,” she declared, "but
I simply could not face that great din
ing room again all by myself. I posi
tively cannot swallow unless I have
some one to talk to while I’m eating.
My breakfast this morning was mar
tyrdom.”
That luncheon wns the jolliest meal
Barbara had ever eaten and. she main
tains, the most delicious. When It was
over and they adjourned to the stutely
drawing room her companion loft her
for a minute. When he returned he
brought with him a couple of books und
a huge bunch of violets.
"These.” he explained, when Barba
ra had arranged the flowers upon her
person to her satisfaction, "are guide
books—one to Washington in general,
the other to the Congressional library in
particular. As the rain god is still lu
command of affairs, suppose wo just
‘do’ the eapttol and library right hero
where we are. It's really, when you
think of it, much the more satisfactory
way. If we went to the nctunl build
ings we'd have to walk our feet off on
the hard, floors. We’d have to lose our
breath climbing innumerablo stairs or
else have our brains addled by being
jerked up and down in elevators. We’d
dislocate our necks tilting our heads
back to see the pictures on the ceilings.
And at the end of the day we'd proba
bly come back to the hotel cross, tired
and dissatisfied, having doubtless for
gotten to look nt the ono thing nbovo
all others we particularly wanted to
see. Now, with these valuable little
books wo can defy the elements and
study at our ease every detail of tho
buildings—exteriorly and interiorly—
but we can absorb priceless knowledge
about them that all the gazing at the
originals could never tell us. Wlint do
you say, shall we begin with tho libra
ry ?”
Barbara’s eyes sparkled. "It’s tho In
spiration of genius," she cried ecstatic
ally. "Yes, let us begin with tho libra
ry by nil means, and you may read Its
history aloud before we look at the pic
tures.”
By dinner time they knew more
about tiie cnpitol nml the wonderful
Congressional library than many n na
tive Washingtonian, and they had also
learned the height of Washington's
monument and all the details In con
nection with Us construction.
After they had dined they repaired to
Uio palm room, where to the accompa
niment of sweet music each unfolded
to tiie other various chapters of person
al history, which, slrnnge to say, dr'iey
found even more Interesting than the
history of their country.
Barbara's sympathetic attention and
undisguised interest encouraged her
companion to discourse at length upon
his occupation, prospects, hopes and
ambitions, a compliment she returned
in full, being Inspired to confidence by
the delightful discovery that her new
acquaintance was actually tho Arthur
Howard of whom "Cousin Tom’’ was
always talking, who had been his Fl-
dus Achates at Yale and Ids comrade In
arms In Culm.
Tin* precious hours flew only too
quickly now. When at last Rartiarn
felt compelled to say good night she
tripped blithely to lied, happy In the
knowledge that sho had another whole
day In Washington and that, no matter
how busy her father might be, sho
would not have to spend It alone.
Not even the undeniable fact that It
was still raining when Barbara pulled
up her window blinds tho next morning
could dampen her buoyant spirits.
By a strange chance Mr. Howard
readied tho (lining room door Just as
Barbara and her father appeared, and,
poppa having cordially greeted “the
Mr. Howard who nursed Cousin Tom
through that dreadful fever in Cuba,”
the throe went in to breakfast together.
"I'm sorry, little girl, to have your
visit turn out so dull," said Barbara's
father as they wore leaving the dining
room, "but there’s a meeting of direct
ors tills morning, mill I'll have to bo
with Bryce up to train time tills after
noon, so I'm afraid I can't show you
around today any more than I did yes
terday.”
“If you and Miss Warren will permit
me,” cried Howard eagerly. "I shull be
only too delighted to lie her cicerone.
Mine Is purely a sightseeing visit.”
"Capital.” answered Mr. Warren. "I
have a great respect for Tom’s Judg
ment, and I leave my daughter In your
care with perfect confidence. Only don't
take her out If it rains hard." And, ac
cepting a hasty kiss from Barbara, the
busy man hurried away.
“Suppose,” suggested Howard ns
they wandered into the drawing room,
"that we read up the Smithsonian In
stitution and the Corcoran Art gal
lery this morning. Then If It clears
we cun go out right after luncheon und
drive round the city. By that means
we can at least see tho outside of all
the places of interest, which will he
better than vainly attempting to see
the inside of only one.”
Mr. Warren reached tho door of his
hotel that evening In a heavy down
pour Just as a closed carriage drove
up, from which he was amazed to see
ills daughter and her escort emerge.
In spite of the rain and the thick,
gloomy fog that enveloped everything
Barbara’s cheeks were flushed with
happiness, her eyes gloriously bright.
"You've never been sightseeing in
tills weather!” cried Mr. Warren as
they followed him in. "Are you both
crazy? Whore have you been?”

The young man stepped forwnrd
eagerly, but Barbara forestalled him.
Laying her hand on her father’s arm,
she said eonxlngly:
“No, dear, we’re not crazy; just en
gaged, and we’ve seen tho outside of
everything, und’’—
"And next year, sir, with your per
mission,” broke in Howard, "we’ll
come hack together. Barbara and I,
and see the inside of them all."
“Engaged! Seen everything!” gasped
the astonished old gentleman. “All
inside of twenty-four hours!”
Barbara laughed.
"Two people and a guidebook enn
do a good deal in two days—if they tui-
dersland how to study tho guidebook!”
she declared. And her father was
forced to licliovo that they could.
Ills Only Opportunity*
Coming downtown on an elevated ex
press from Harlem last week the fol
lowing Impromptu lecture created con
siderable amusement among the pas
sengers who heard it:
"liook here. Boh, you arc an excel
lent talker, and it Is always a pleasure
to listen to you at tho propel’ time and
place. But there are a great many
things in this newspaper that I want
to know, and if I listen to you 1 shan’t
know them until night. I haven't an
hour or two a day to read the paper in
my office, as you have. If 1 don’t read
It now 1 shall have to take it home, or
maybe not read it at all. Now, keep
quiet, like a good fellow. Sorry you
haven’t a paper, but I’ll tear you oft'
the first tinge of tills one us soon as 1
have read it.”
“Good for you!” said n man who was
reading while hanging to a strap, uml
a score of puHsongors who knew how it
was themselves were heartless enough
to laugh.—New York Times.

"Yon are charging me $7 a week for
board and lodging, Mrs. Irons," suld
the gray haired person of tho name of
Harris. "Muy I ask how you would
itemize it? What part of It Is for
hoard?"
“Five dollars,” replied tho landlady.
“Aud $2 for my room?”
"Yes.”
"Well, If you don't mind, Mrs. Irons,"
ho said, proceeding to squnro up for
another week, "we’ll consider hureufter
that I’m paying you $5 for lodging and
$2 for board. It will seem more us If
I were getting tho worth of my mon
ey.”—Chicago Tribune.
Very Remarkable Cure of Diarrhota,
‘•About fix years ago for the first
time in my life 1 had a sudden severe
attack of diarrhrea,” says Mrs. Alice
Miller, of Morgnn, Texas. ‘‘I got tem
porary relief, but it came back again
and again, and for six long years 1 have
suffered more misery and agony than
I enn toll. It was worse than death.
My husband spoilt hundreds of dollars
for physicians’ prescriptions and treat
ment without avail. Finally we moved
to Bosque county, onr present homo,
nnd one day I happened to sno an ad
vertisement of Chamberlain’s Colic,
Cholera and Dinrrhicn Remedy, with
tho testimonial of a man who had been
cured by it. The case wns so similar
to my own that. 1 c( ncludul to trv the
remedy. The result was wonderful. I
could hardly realize that L was well
again, or believe it could lie so alter
having suffered so long, but that one
bottle of medicine, costing but a few
cents, cured me.” For sale by Bradley

The luxury of grief is indulged in by
all ageB, but it is doubtful if it is ever
again so much enjoyed as in child
hood. Perhaps, if our memories could
take us back to the very earliest days
of infancy, we should find that we
were often reveling In delight when
we were sympathetically supposed to
be writhing with stomach-ache—and
with no language but a cry.
A little girl of most angelic disposi
tion has just given the whole thing
away. She had fallen on a brick walk
and barked her knee and bumped her
chin. To her next door neighbor, who
inquired from the window some time
afterward if she had hurt herself vory
badly, the sufferer replied with a quiv
ering lip: “Oh, yes; I ought to bo in
tiie bouse crying now!”
Bronchitis For Twenty Years.
Mrs. Minerva Smith, of Danville, 111.,
writes: "I had bronchitis for twenty
years and never got relief until I used
Foley's Honey and Tar, which is a sure
cure.” Bradley & Wester.
The mortgage is a self-supporting in
stitution. It always holds its own. It
calls for just as many dollars when
grain is cheap as when grain is dear.
It is not affected by the drought. It
is not drowned out by heavy rains. It
never winter-kills. Late springs aud
early frosts never trouble it. Potato
bugs do not disturb it. Motli and rust
do not destroy it. It grows nights,
Sundays, rainy days, and even holi
days. It brings a sure crop every
year, and sometimes twice a year. It
produces cash every time. It does
not have to wait for the market to
advance. It is not subject to the
speculations of bulls and bears on the
Board of Trade. It is a load that galls
and frets and chafes.

CATARRH
The treatment of Catarrh w i t li antiseptic and
astringent washes, lotions, salves, medicated tobacco
and cigarettes or any external or local application, is
just as senseless as would be kindling a fire on top of
the pot to make it boil. True, these give temporary
relief, but Hie cavities and passages of the head and the
bronchial tubes soon fill up again with mucus.
Taking cold is the first step towards Catarrh, for it
checks perspiration, and the poisonous acids and
vapors which should pass off through the skin, are
thrown back upon tho mucous membrane or inner skin, • V
producing inflammation and excessive flow of mucus, '**9-
mucli of which is absorbed into the blood, and through the circulation
reaches every part of the system, involving the Stomach, Kidneys and other
parts of the body. When the disease assumes the dry form, the breath
becomes exceedingly foul, blinding headaches are frequent, the eyes red,
heating affected and n constant ringing in the cars. No remedy that does
not reach the polluted blood can cure Catanli. S. S. S. expels from the
circulation all offensive matter, and when rich, pure
blood is again coursing through the body the
mucous membranes become healthy and tiie skin
active, all the disagreeable, painful symptoms disap
pear, aud a permanent, thorough cure is effected.
S. S. S. being a strictly vegetable blood purifier does not derange the
Stomach nnd digestion, but the appetite nnd general health rapidly improve
under its tonic effects. Write us about your case and get the best medical
