???Five and four are nine and eight are

eet the hot pics on the broad pantry shelf.
A Jow, sarcastic Jangh came from the depths
of the great arm chair, where Hess Chamber
lain wu lounging with a newspaper in bis
hand.
"Won???t yon send me a copy of your new
arithmetic when you publish it, Kitty???? he
naked in a bantering tone. "That will do to
go with the spectroscopic tiews you told about
last evening."
"Well, 1 wasn???t the one who spoke of Dr.
Jlolmea at the author of the ???Biglow Papers/
anyway,??? retorted Kitty, taunted beyond en
durance. ??????Boss Chamberlain, I (or one shall
be heartily glad when your vacation is over.???
Boh threw down hie paper, straightened
himself up and bent a pair or keen, black eyes
searching]/ upon her.
???You don't mean that, Kitty????
???But 1 do/* answered the girl passionately,
???1 have never known so unhappy a time as
these last six weeks. If my ignorance is so

life must bo spent in the kitchen instead of the
schoolroom wncro 1 would like to be? 1 am
doing my duty; I please father end
the boys and that is sufficient You presume
too much on our friendship, Mr, Chamberlain,
when you take it upon yourself to tutor end
criticise mo in that contemptuous fashion. You
are at liberty to go where your flue sensibili
ties will not receive such shocks/??? and Kitty
took upher egg-beater and sMacked the inno*
cent yolks with an energy wbbh threatened
to dsmoltsh them.
???You'll be sorry for this before the week is
out. Kilty Payne, and when you want me
back just remember that you sent me away."
1 ho yout <r man rose to his feet, put on his nut
and overcoat, and stalked down the path, the
pcrionffiretfon of offended dfgnity.
Kitty???s lip fjuiv*red as she sew the tali form
moving itttdily along between tho rows ol
leaflets lilacs without one repentant backward
glanco- Already her heart was looging for
reconciliation, but pride forbade hor to recall
him.
???He will come tomorrow/???she said with a
sigh. ???Ho will not fail to eat his Thanksgiv*
ing dlnntr with us; it wouldn't be Thanksgiv
ing without Boss.??? Bhe wiped away her
tears and turned again hopefully to her work.
Jt hid been a wearisome,trying day; out*
side a gray mass of clouds hung gloomily over
the blnil's, and the keen winds sweeping across
the prairie now sad then whitened the hol
lows with sudden flurrica of enow. There had
been an extra amount of work to do in prepa
ration for Thansgiving, which was always cel
ebrated by the Payne family in royal style,
en innumerable army ol uncles, aunts and
cousins responding gladly to the annual sum
mons to the capacious homestead. Kitty had
risen unrefrcibedfrotn disturbed end troubled
It began directly after breakfast, while she
res rolling out the flaky cruts for her pump*
kin pics. Aunt Babrlna, who had lately be
come a member of the family, waa washing
dishes at the sink opposite, giving voles now
end then to an ejaculation which Kitty had
learned to intornrat aa the signal of a coming
storm. In the few months during whloh her
aunt had been her companion the girl had
learned to dread her relative'* sharp tongue
???nd shrank from imparting her confidences to
her.
???What's that Chamberlain fellow hanging

her head a HUle lower over her work, es with
quick, deft fingers she filled the tins for the
oven.
Aunt Sabrine'a keen eye* were fixed pUileee-
Jy upon her, end she saw that the shot had
told.
???Now, it???s easy andugh to see," she went on,
flearlahing her dish cloth by way of emphasis,
???that he feels himself a heapabofo you. ile???e
always twitting you with yourcountrified ways
and with hie being educated, which the laud
knows, you ain't. I attended select
school myself when I wu a girl, and cau

that don???t make it that you ain???t too good (or

morning, neon sad night, all over the house
horn garret to oeller, helping himself to fried
cakes and cookies in tho pantry, like one of
the family, and sitting right down hero in the
kitchen to bother, no matter how busy we are.
And tho neighbors tell mo It???s bun going on
a penitent little note in Kilty???* cl ear cblrog-
*;*&ut the note did not come; Kitty was too
deeply hurt to proffer any flng of truco. Bhe
went from room to room putting the curtains
into more graceful folds, rearranging the
becks and trifles on the mantel and tables,
snd filling the great blue vases with muses of
iccwy chrysanthemums. All the while she
was listening and waiting for the advent of
her lover and n chance step upon the walk
lent tho blood surging to her cheek.

come, be would never eome again something

faking (he blame upon bimself in bit old
frank, generous way. No, it wu as the neigh
bors said, another had supplanted her in nis
regard, if indeed he had ever cared for her as
i be had ro fondly imagined.
???Here's a letter for you, Kitty,??? celled
Aunt Babrina up the stairway. ???Its from
Chicago, and must be something pretty im
portant, I gmss, for its got two stamps on it.
Bead it quick, and let us know who its
from.???
Bhe took the letter, thankful for tho dim
light which concealed her tear-stained cheek*
and swollen eyes, and read u follows:
"-Ghicaoo, November 26,18-. ???My Dear Cousin

Kosa grew pale; he drew himself u;

He folded tho letter end slipped It i

Kitty with moist ltshes. ???I don't suppose

Four days later in the great farmhouse
kitchen Kitty stood at tho long table making
pies. Aunt Babrinn stalked majestically back
and forth, arranging and rearranging the
pihsof cups and plblei in the old martial
way. Lifewua battle for Aunt Sabrins,
but she wielded her weapons with a brave,
undaunted heart, and this morning the ghost

their midst, llo bad grown thinner and paler
than of old; thcro were lines of caro upon his
face and a settled sadness in his dark eyes.
???1 have just ccmc from my father???s, Kitty,???
he began, breathlessly, ???where yesterday I

dent never reached its destination. I thought

Aunt Sabrina with a hysterical] ejaculation
aped out tho room as Rom emboldened by tho
tears in tbo blue eyes lilted to his took the
aproned, flour besprinkled little figure iato his
arms.
Maybe its just as well," said Aunt Sabrina
meditatively, as sho piled ui> the pans on tho
broad shelf of the back porch. ???It ain???t every
woman that???s called to single bloasednoss and
Kitty always was a soft hearted little thing.
Now that Tom and Joe aro going to get mar
ried we should have to break up anyway. It???s
time lor this family to swarm, and it???s just ai
well for Kitty to bo the queen bee and t&ko

about. Laws, ft???s most like ??? novel. Msybe
the folks that maka books don't lie about more
than half of it after all. What if By Prentiss

flung her apron over her head and with a hall

her fruit caks.

10 for the last five yean I How do you sup
pose it's going to end? Yeu can???t look me in
the lace, Kitty Payne,and sty ho???e ever asked
you to have him.???
No, Kitty could not; and the feint, sick
feeling her aunt???s words prodded paled her
lips Md drew dark circlet around ner eyas.
Fortunately the entrsaee of the young gentle*
man: In question spared her the nomination ef
replying, but she anew the evil day was only
postponed. Aunt Sabrina waa not to be bel
led when once started on e scent.
For the first time In her life her heart was
throbbing with indignation against Reas,
wbil* he, le illy ly iugoeok in the easy ehair,
waa inwardly wondering why it was that of
late be could never have Kitty a moment to
himself. He was very certain that
he should not be satisfied with
a wife whoce highest ambition
waa to excel in household duties even though
she were sweet and lovable ea Kitty Payee.
He hoped if heaver made up hie mind to
many her, which, indeed, waa extremely un
certain, he could teach her to dress a little
mere like other people, fibs wee always
neatly end tastefully attired, but his critioal
eye detected the absence of certain effects
which denoted that the fashion magaslnee
were infrequont visitants at the Payne
homestead. An elegant, stylish
wife would be m invaluable
help to e young lawyer starting out ou his
career. The ???Hannah Jane??? clement was
greatly overrated. Madge Sullivan, his sis
ter's Chicago friend, wee more to his tests.
Kitty mist be reminded of her little failings;
yet she was a dear good girl after all, and
Korn's face softened as he glanced toward htr.
She would not meet hie eyes; she wu trying
to steal her hcait against him. It wu so cruel,
so unmanly, urged pride, for him to piece her
5?? perplexing end humiliating a position.
He had men her devoted lover, her constant

,i!lt were a cow???s tall. The snake, which is ten
feet long, waa quickly placed In the warm water.
Tho one that remained In the box showed au In

Bdton supports 800 insane, says Mr. T. B,
Sunburn, not 75 of whom will recover.
This is frightful I Insanity has increased
40 per cent in a deesde and most of the casos
are incurable. Whatever tho individual cauie
nosy be, the fact remains that uric acid blood
sets the brain on fire, destroys its tirades, and
then comes some form of fatal lunacy.
Nothing is so pliable ss a mind diseased.
Most brain troubles begin in the stomach ;thsn
if the blocd is filled with uric acid, caused by
failure of kidney action, aud the consequent
destruction of tne blood life???slbumen???jou
have the fuel and the flame and a brain in
full blaze as when oue raves, or in slow com
bustion, as in milder forms of insanity. Rev.
K. D. Hopkins, of 6t. Jobtsbury, Vt., a few
years ago was confined in an asylum. He took
a terrible cold while aiding in pulling out a
fire In a neighbor's burning house, and for
twenty- five years that cold was slowly filling
bis blood with uric acid, and finally tho dead
ly work was done. Tho case lookeJ hopeless,
but he happily uasd Warner's safe cure and
recovered. That was three years ago, and
having ridden his blood of all surplus uric
eoid, be has remained well until this day.
It is indeed a terrible thing to loss one's
mird, but it is a mors terrible thing to suffer
such a condition when it can be so easily pre
vented.

In many instances ths opium eating habit
_a* been contracted through the u*c of nar-
retire, prescribed by physician* during sick
ness. Many remedies which cltioi to euro
coughs contain morphia or opium, and tt can
easily be understood what a bad effect they
must have ou children. Tbs new remedy???
Bed Star Cough Curs, is entirely free from
theta dangerous ingredients, and ths mate of
ttsttaony which has already been collected in
its Inver from all parts of the country is proof
of its wonderful parity and efficacy.
