The Kind . You Have Always Bought In Use For Over 30 Years.

THE CENTAUR COMPANY. TT MURRAY STREET. NEW YORK CITY ..

AN AMERICAN GIRL.

0 YOU'RE Mr. Braithwaite's friend. , I don't know you, but I've heard you're a nice man. Do come in." It was very good of Braithwaite to have reported so favorably, on me, hut the re. ception was somewhat startling. I hope I looked modest.

"I am all alone, you see, and just as husy. Packing up; I'll never get through, We're off to Cuiro to-morrow. Sit down just there, and you can belp. Hold this a minute there's a good man."

And she tossed me a tangle of wool.

I began to see the humor of the situation I, a correct Englishman, in a small Par! salon au premier, was holding a skein o. wool, which a handsome American girl, who didn't seem to consider an introdue tion necessary, was deftly winding, chat ting all the time with a frankness th didn't give me a chance to say a word.

"You do that rather well for a man,' she went on; "goodness . knows how should have fixed it alone. You don't look much like an angel dropped in, hut that't not your fault. A little slower, 0, my friend, if you please. There!"

"Now, Misa Holiday, if you can be cere monious for just a minute, I'll introduce myself. Braithwaite was unable to come to-day, so he asked me to make his adieux, to give you this packet, and to say you were to he very kind to the messenger, who war his friend."

As I handed her the large box I scarcely remembered that the latter part of the message was fictitious.

"Candy! The lovely man!" said Mist Holiday. "Yes, I've heard a great deal about you, and when we've finished packing I'll he good and motherly to you. Now, Mr. Haskell, from London, you'll be kind enough to help me with this trunk." Miss Nora Holiday was a magnificent girl, and as she knelt at the other side of the trunk, with a faint glimmer of firelight he hind her great mass of brown hair (Parisian anthracite gives a faint gleam toward dusk) well, even the best bred Englishman has a revelation at times of the artificiality of courtesy, and mayhe remembers the wood pigeons, who have no manners.

"Alors, mon amt, you shall put those cot- ton gloves, for which I gave two francs. next the little packet you're not to look at. Now that traveling pillow and those slip- pers. These hooks and there! I guess the id won't close now. Do you mind?" I knelt upon the lid, which, after sev. eral attempts, we succeeded in catching and Miss Holiday rose, with a handsome flush on her face.

"There," she said, "it's just too bad ol me to make you work like that, hut you've been very good, and you shall have some tea and some of Mr. Braithwaite's candy." By this time I was in no hurry to leave This young lady from Salt Lake, with her frank, free manners, her intuitive breeding. and her back as straight and lissome as a of sapling, was like a pine-laden breeze, which one involuntarily breathes deep, and American slang, after all, was no worse than I bad been accustomed to hear from ir- reproachable English ladies

She spoke of Cairo. I didn't know Cairo O. but I ought to. That, I said, probably explained my ignorance, O, but l must she replied. I subjected myself to Kismet ; did she intend to remain in Cairo long? "All the winter, I guess, if the men will let me. They're a terrible lot of men, They think every American girl hns heaps and heaps of money. They just worry you to death."

I clothed myself in ignorance, and asked in what way! :

"O, they make no secret of it," she re plied, laughing. "They have embarrassed estates, or 'scutcheons that need regilding They want money. They offer you a mine of affection-hut they get no affection mine."

Miss Holiday lughed at her pun, and went on to tell me of foreign counts, whose endowments in title were their prospect uses; of mien who hadn't come into then money: of men who had run through it; of men who had never had any, but who were all anxious for some one else's, even at the expense of having to take the coro !- lary with two laughing brown eyes that were mirroring the lamp light into mine at the other side of the table. When eyes like those cease to gleam with fun, it it to shine with love.

"Then yon anticipate being asked shortly to share five centuries of title and a de- cayed castle somewhere in Poiund?" "0. no," Miss Holiday replied, "I always tell them I'm a Mormon. and entail a score

of motners-in-law. Of course,"It is not true: but they know I'm from Salt Lake, and that puts them off."

If she did not rid me of these two lamp- light reflections, 'twould be a question, thought, if all King Cadmus' harvest could put me off'. But I played the game. "And will the hearer of a score of quar. terings to he afraid of quartering a score of mothers-in-law?" I anked.

"There is no question with mothers-in- law," Miss Holiday retorted, pausing an she and opened Braithwaite's box of candy, making a little moue that passed like ripple round her mouth, and was lost in the smile that followed.

"But the funniest thing," she continued. "was an old Dutch count, whose estates bad been flooded. He wanted to pump them out, or something. Well, he asked Lottie Mcclellan and Edna Stacey and they said they weren't rich enough. Then he came to me, and I had to tell him I'd just started & scheme for transplanting oysters into Salt Lake, and that till the pearl harvest came I was hard up, That hroke him right up, and be told them all at Shepherd's I was mad. Well, after that I swore I'd never let m man propose to ine at Cairo again."* "But if one day Cupid came to Cairo?" I asked.

"Then if I were at Cairo, I should he- not at home." she replied.

Now if Miss Nora Holiday thought she could match me so easily us that she was mistaken. I had been a bachelor long enough to know my own mind when the time came; and that the time had come I knew as well as if it had been proclaimed to me by a special revelation.

A whim came into my head. I rose to take my leave, reached my hat and at the door turned.

"Miss Holiday," I said, "do you het ?"

"Why, what do you mean, Mr. Haskell ?" "This," I replied. "I will bet you a dozen of gloves against a tete-a-tete supper the next time we meet in Paris, that before you've heen in Cairo a week, Sait Lake or no Salt Lake, some man will have asked you to marry him. I don't insist on the title or the Dutch submarine estate, hut poor he will be. Within a week, mind. Do you take mne ?"

"It's a gainble," said Miss Holiday, tak. ing my hand.

"Then good-by."

"Good-hy."

On my way home I called on Braithwaite. "I've come to bid you farewell, " I said. ""Farewell?" said Braithwaite, "where

the deuce are you going!"

"Off to Cairo in the morning," I replied. -Lady's Pictorial.

WHICH ?

The portraits of President Mckinley and Mr. Pryan, published this week. are printed because of the many d- mands for the pictures. The picture of Mr. Bryan Is not a chance kodaker's shot, but Is reproduced from a large 12-Inch picture, representing In full Colonel bryan and General Lee sitting in front of their tent In Florida. The two men were admirably posrd for the picture, which was sent to Lincoln and placed in a Incal photograph- er's window, where it remalned for several months. The Inference is, there- fore, not unfair that the likeness was satisfactory to Mr. Bryan and his friends.

PROSPERITY IN THE WEST

Has Rapidly Advanced Under the Ad- ministration of President Mckinley.

The Republican national committee, In order to secure some up- to-date facts of Interest relative to financial conditions in the great agricultural sections of the United States west of the Alleghany mountains, sent out letters to several hundred business men In the large cities and in country towns of these eectlone.

"This county Is 25 percent ahead of four years ago In general prosperity."- Unlon National bank, Grand Forks, N. D.

"Both savings and commercial de- posits have Increased with us about 50 percent, respectively, during the laet four years; while credits of this district have Increased about 25 percent. Improvement In the condition of the debtor class has been very material. The Our merchants report vast Improve- ments In collections."-M. S. Williams, Commercial National bank, Michigan.

"The agricultural Interests in this whole community have improved to such an extent as Is really remarkable, and contentment and plenty are shown on all hands, and only political disturbances occur. We only hope that four years more of such prosperity can be attained, for this community has never before been in such a prosperous condition."- S. C. Murray, president American Na- tional bank, Louisville, Ky.

"Ten farm mortgages are now paid off to every one that goes on record, while then (four years ago) none were paid off, and great quantities went on record."- C. S. Oieson, Security bank, Howard. S. D.

"Four years ago our sheep Interests. which comprised almost wholly our borrowing class, were heavily In debt. Today, while they have not become loan- ers of money, they are far less in debt, and as a general rule are carrying in- creased flocks. If their flocks were re- duced to the average of four years ago they would probably be out of debt."- H. H. Matteson, First National bank, Great Falls, Montana,

"I never knew a time when commercial paper was paid more promptly than to- day; our notary complains that he has no protesting to do. The rates of Inter- est are now very low; this no doubt Is due to the additional currency issued under the new law, the enormous produc- tion of gold in this country and more prosperous times generally." - J. R. Walsh, president Chicago National bank. Chicago, Ills.

"A number of our people in mercantile pursuits, wh had borrowed money and were unable o pay four years ago. have largely reduced or wiped out their debts. Some who were In good financial condl- tlon have become very much better off. We do not know of any merchants of business capacity who have not very ma terlaily improved their position."-J. H Dwight, First National bank. Duluth: Minn.

"] have Incidentally discussed the po- litlcai situation with many business men from Kentucky, most of whom are Dem- ocrats. They alinost without exceptlon Indicate a purpose to vote the Republi- can tleket, as they are satisfied to kt well enough alone, and they do not ap- prove of the platform upon which the Democratic party stands," Charles A Hirsch, Fifth National hank, Cincinnati, "Borrowers of five years ago have, to a considerable extent. become lenders of money Many persons practically bank- rupt four years ago have been · nablcd tu realize on property which could not have been sold In 1996. Farm mortgag. g' havr decreased nearly one-half since 1×96. The principal reason therefor Is the universal prosperity brought on by a wise and judicious administration." Ira P. Nye, First National bank, Eureka. Kas

"['nless 1 am greatly mistaken, there will be a very material chance in the political results In this state this fall I make it & point to talk with farmers coming from different precincts, ard from different sections of the state, and aimost withont an exception they tell me they know of many hut their different localities who are going to let well enough alone und vote for Mckinley. Many of them voted for Bryan four years ago. The general feeling here Is that the Republicans can elect a governor. carry the legislature, and secure the electoral vote for MrKinley."-S. Il. Burnton, president First National bank, Lincoln, Neb.

REPUBLICAN ISSUES. Boiled Down. They Will All Be Found In the Full Dinner Pail.

"Our issue is the prosperity of the American people and the honor of the American nation. They are menaced by free silver at home and free rioting In the Philippines. Under the Republican party the country has been raised from dire depression to boundless prosperliy. and the good name of the republic hae been kept unsullied. Common sense tells you that if you preserve prosperity and the public faith, you must support the party which has created and main- talned them. The record of the Repub- Ilcan party Is the pledge of the election of Mckinley and Roosevelt."-President Schurman of Cornell university.

"My fellow-citizens, you have heard a great deal of talk of late about the para- mount Issue. This issue, whatever it Is. Is yours. I saw It a moment ago among the trees-a full dinner pall. You may talk about expansion, anti-trust, silver, government by injunction, the constitu- tlon following the flag, and all the rest of it, but, feilow-citizens. I want to teli you that this whole issue bolied down Is in that dinner paii. If this is a great nation, it Is great hecause of its people. If It Is a successful nation, It Is so be- cause of the Industry of Its people. What. my friends, Is the object of the Demo- cratle party in bringing in collateral from the very fact that you are prosper- Issues, except to distract your attention ous, and that every promise of the Re- publican party made at St. Louis has heen fulfilled : that every proposition has come to pass, and that you are reaping the benefits of those prophecies and promises, Now. It is a game of politics only to Inject Into thie campaign those Issues that are simply collateral."- Senator Hanna.

THE TRUST QUESTION. Publicity One of the Best Remedies For Crushing Out Evil.

"Taik about the sincerity of the Demo cratic party on the trust question, Why, at Kansas City they put a plank in their platform denouncing trusts, but Ignored Grover Cleveland, who once said, 'Publle office is a public trust.' (Laughter.) The Democratic party In the city of New York has turned public offlee Into an ice trust. There they are gouging the poor people out of their hard-earned wages for what to them is a necessity of life. while the very conspirators who formed the ice trust were gathered in Saratoga denouncing 1t."-Lieutenant Governor Woodruff.

"A word as tu trusts. Beyond a ques- tion the great Industrial combinations which We group In popular parlance un- der the name of trusts have produced great and serlous evils, There is every reason why we should try to abate those evils and to make men of wealth. whether they art individually or collectively. bear their full share of the country's burdens, and keep as scrupulously with in the bounds of equity and.morality as any of their neighbors But wild and frantic denunciation does not da thịm the least harm, and simply postpones the day when we can make them anier al lu to proper laws, lasty legislation of a vlofent type is either wholly ineffective against the fall. ur else crushes the evil at the expense of crushing even more of good One of the first things to ohtaln Is publicity. We must be able by law to find out exactly what each corporation self will effect something toward renie- dying many evils. Moderation combined Ing many evils Moderation combined with resolution can alone secure results worth having."-Candidate Roosevelt. President Schurman of Cornell uni- "Mr Bryan is the biggest versity ooomer of bogles In the United States, but, as Lincoln remarked, you can't fool the people nore than once. Our pros- perlty under the gold standard has pitl- lessly unmasked Mr Bryan, but there Is no escape for him from the silver issue to which he has pledged himself His other Issue 's that of Imperlallam. 1 don't know of any one-man power here. except In Tammany hall."

Broken Bric-A-Bracs.

Mr. Major, the famoue cement man, of New York, explains some very interest- ing facts about Major'e cement, The multitudee who use this standard article know that it is many bundred per cent. better than other cemeuts for which similar claims are made, hut a great many do not know why, The simple reason is that Mr. Major uses the best materials ever discovered and other man- ufacturers do not use them, because they are to expeueive and do not allow large profits. Mr. Major tells us that one of the elements of hie cement costs $3.75 a pound, and auother cost $2.65 a gallon while a large share of the so called ce. meuts and liquid glue, upon the market are nothing more thau 16 cent glue, di- solved in water or citric acid, and in some cases, altered slightly in color and odor by the addition of cheap and uselees materials. Major's cemeut retails at fif- teen and twenty-five cents a buttle, and when a dealer tries to sell a substi tute you can depenil upon it that his only object is to make a larger profit. The profit ou Major's cement is as much as any dealer ought to make on any ce. ment. And this is doubly true in view of the fact that each dealer gets hie share of the benefit of Mr. Major's advertising which now amounts to $3000 a month, throughout the country. Established

Don't accept any off haud advice from a druggist. If you are at all handy (and you will be likely to find that you are more so than you lingine) you can re- pair your rubber boots and family shoes, and other rubher and leather articles, with Major's rubber cement and Major's leather erment. And you will be sur prised at how many dollais a year you will save If your druggist can't supply yon, it will be fowarded by mail; either kiwi, Free uf postage.
