Through counsel the will o f Dr. Percy Ij. Tan turn, late 6f Ocean Grove, was offered for probate in the Surro­gate’s office at Freehold during tihe week by the widow. Airs. Afary A, Tnhtum.

The latter, who is living in New- York, was in town on Friday after­noon, of last week.

The will has not been probated, for the reason Ohat Attorney Boyle, of New York, who represents Percy ‘ L. Tan turn. J r.. fi led a caveat a^al nst its admission to record.

It Was supposed- that the late Dr. Tan turn left no will. But the widow lias produced one, and its authenticity is attested to by three witnesses.

The will was drawn in 1892, and the handwriting of the document is that o f Dr. Tatitum himseif.

The witnesses were C. C. Clayton, Dr. I. \v Beegle and diaries Rosa. Two o f the witnesses—*Dr. Beegle and Air. Ross—are dead. j

In the will the entire estate is left j to the widow. ■ ;

As thure seems to be no doubt of the j right of the son to a share in the es-1 tate a compromise may be effected, j

Besides the house in Ocean Grove,. corner of Alain avenue and Pilgrim I Pathway, there is property'in. Borden* j town. New York and in the Soutlh.

MRS. MORAN, BACK FROM

FLORIDA, GIVEN SURPRISE

Home Folks Enjoyiny Lile in Their Oivn Way at Ml. Dora

On her arrival from the South last Saturday night, Mrs; Wiliam Aloran was given a reception at her home in the Grove, the Clarendon. Mrs; Alor­an spent several months in Florida with the Ocean Grove and Asbury Park colony at Mt. Dora. She return- ed in excellent health and well pleased with her trip. ;

The ^reception . was planned by her husband', William Moran, who was also the chef for the occasion. Those present were Rev.- Dr. Alarshall, wife and daughter. Rev. and 'Mrs, S, H. C. Smith, Mrs. Atcock, and. Air. and Airs, Oeorge Pridham.

iAIrs. Moran was most* cordially re- ce/lved. She brought back from Florida many souvenirs and1 a large quantity of fruit, which has been distributed among her friends thiis week.

She reports that the Ocean Grove and Asbury Park people at Alt. Dora, are having a splendid time. One of ,th€>ir almost daily occupations is the raiding of orchards in the neighbor­hood. Grape fruit, Oranges and tan­gerines disappear as if hy magic on their visitation, and the fruit grow­ers, 4f they want to preserve even the semblance of a crop, will have; to adopt extreme measures of protection. N. H. Kilmer, o f the Alaska House, is the chief of the band and is ably sec­onded, by. Henry Welsford, of the Os­born House, It has gotten so that when a grower sees. Kilmer and Wels­ford heading a party for his orchard he calls off his dogs, .throws up his bands helplessly and says, “Take all the fruit you want, boys, but for good­ness sake leave me the .rind and teed!'*

IDEAL WEATHER IN SOUTHLAND

BR. HARRY ALDAY WRITES OF CAM­DEN, S. C., RESORT

OUT OF DOORS ALL DAYCity M em orable from Fact o f Use

M ost D isastrous Battle o f R ev­olu tionary W a r H aving Been Fought Near That P lace

A letter from Dr. Harry Alday. who, with Iris father and the Alisses Alday, is at Camd.en, S. C., has just been re­ceived by Dr. A. E. Ballard. The weather at Ca'mden, Dr. Alday says, is ideal, and the little party o f Ocean Grove people are spending their time, from early morn to nightfall, out of. doors, A part of the letfer is of his­toric value and deals with the disas­trous battle fought near Camden dur­ing the Revolutionary War:

“ Camden is of great interest to .the student of history, for here was fought what proved to the Americans the most*disastrous battle of the Revo- , lutionary War. Altshough hearing the name of Camden, the battle was real­ly fought eight mfles norrh-^of the town. It was about one hundred miles from Camden where General Horatio Gates, the victor of Saratoga, still in high prestige, arrived anil, supersed­ing Huron De Kalb, assumed chief command. With tihe halo of victory gained at Saratoga and Stillwater, he had come to repeat these ’ brilliant achievements and deliver the South from the British. He began his op­erations w ith g rea t despatch and

j vigor, in Gates there was none of the I Cabins. Nothing but immediate ac- ! tlen would satisfy him. It was here,, j at the very outset, be made bis ure.it- ( « st mistake.| Instead of fakuig <,ouns»-i of the j hardy v< teians who knew tiie ground, j the. character and methods of the Brit- ; ish rcmmauder. Gates preferr* d to re- | ly upon his own judgiueht entirely, j The■ officers he ‘.found’ in command of i diflerent divisions of the army on his » arrival he regarded as little short of

'bushwackers/ ‘backwoodsmen.’ Even DoKalb he snublied and neglected, and. 5n fact, (ondu. ted himself in such a pompous and arrogant manner that it was predicted he would . ex­change bis • Northern laun;ls f{>rSouthern willows. Prophetic word?, indeed. ' ‘ / . ;

“ When .Marion arrived in. < an:.p. wL-li •his veteran but ragged followers, h ■ was treated with derision and his ser­vices neglected, and hi- was sent buck to the swamp from whence lie came, if Gat 1.4'i ouhl r m: v- h;ive discrrtu i til;1nieiits of these 'swamp angels' ill *battle might have had n f.ir diffen ni * -tiding.

It vjis true—they didn’ t want her to come so soon. Jn f'aej,. ihcy didn’t want her to come at all. -The director unkindly sa’ld satirical things about her cows—a study from nature—and suggested housework as a surer mean-* of gaining renown.

It was a horrible shuck. She did not cry; she was too stunned and hunVdial- ed for 1 hat; sin* had o d.v enough rea­son left to wonder doubly how she could tell her parents that their sweet confidence had been misjdueed—that their child always was aiid always would be a nobody.

The stuffy lit lie parlor, the hateful daubs, had grown Intolerable.

“ How can I tell father and motbprV* she cried.

“Leave that to me,” he whispered jubilantly, “and cheer up.*'

The old people jumped to their feet as the door flew open, and a look o f In­tense relief crossed their faces ar the sight o f Ellen aud Elton.

“Oh, we didn’t know whnt had be­come o f yon the last, night you were here,’’ said her mother a little re-, pro.ichfnlly, but she smiled Indulgently at* Elton, and he smiled back.

“ And whom should she be with?” he cried. “ Hut 1 have good news for you: Shi* isn't going away. She's" promised to become a Meadville matron.”

"What is tbe advantage of Iron con­struction. asah* from Its having' made the skysrrnpcr possible? Is it stron- get*?” :

“No: M's cheaper."“ But you Have to use stone anyway.

tjnie. You t-cc. iu putting up an Iron const met mil building everybody can \i*ork at onep—ex ea valors, draftsmen, rolling mills, ironworkers, ni’nmis. plumbers' finishers and nil. Suppose you come liere and ‘ti»11 us you want to spend $ 1M,iino.oiin on n Imildhm to Ink**' the pliice of a bit? stone hotel. Tn ■- cerfiiln the” idinp'* Jiud dimension* o' the lot js of* ivis'ise easy. This dom*. we .turn the diagram over i'» an arclii toot. Ui* does the aesthetic part of the "work: and we don't, bother much with .him after we get Ids’ ^roimd aiid side elevations. thotigli. of eoiir.se we keep In fTnse prmdicnl toudi will* him. Well. now. as .s.oou as w e. dose the deal with yon—nbt a week; afterwnn*. but the* very next day—we are ten ring down the old bill Id I mi, the architect Is roughing out his floor plans, and we are figuring, with y»»iir assistance, how much weight eadi floor will have to

. ejfrrv. And all the while this is being done our superintendents are nr ranging for caisson men, ironworkers, masons and. all the rest of the labor. At the mune time our foundry men and tjuarry- men are planning to be in readiness t'> ?blp material, when it Is needed. In fact, everything niove:; forward slmnl- •anepusly.”

“ What Is the tlrst step of nctiiul eon- d ruction V"

“To get the architect's finished ground.plan away from hiim He dear­ly Jnves continually to make changes u that end.of the work. As soon as we 'mve tlie ground plan we can toll by

; W 5sliai»e of tile future' buildingAjust where the uprights are fo go and so where We shall have to sink our cais

. ions. .Meantime] we have found what ‘load’ 'each 11 pright will have to carry aud thus know the sort of foundation and structure each will require. * By the time we get the final ground plan the excavation is so well under way tiiat caisson work may begin, and we can also set our draftsmen to making detail'sketches for the guidance of the roliiug mill man. This is wlmt I meant by saying that the real construction of a modern big bulldlug.ls done in the ofllce. We make a drawing of every beam, girder and upright to be used.- With every dimension calculated to ih;> sixteentii of an inch and every rivet hole indicated os' to place and Size to a nicety. Thore Is a separate drawing for each one oi’ these •nrembeys,* ami each Is numbered. The drawings are sent to the roiling mill .and there repro-

^duced in steel., When a member is shipped from the rolling mill it is num­bered'to correspond' with the drawing.

“ For instance,, we want a beam with a cross section like the Uoinau letter I twelve feet long ami thirty inches wide. It ts to bo three aud a half ineh-

• C8 thick, and the flanges an? to be sev- on-elghths of .an Inch tltlek and ei.rlil Inches wide. It is to have a transverse brace supported.by L shaped brackets three Inches each way, and the rivet holes are to be-.ln the places Indicated and are to be three quarters of an inch jn diameter. Wheu shipped lo us th> beam Is to be marked M I; 1 14.“

• "That shows wiwe.-lt goes lit I1:*'

building, of coursc;‘i ventured the ro*' porter, with a gleam of intelligence. »

"Exactly. We work by tbior<. Tor each floor we ma Ue si •'roun:! plan showing l be posit lo,i of <*.ery bit of. ironwork, wbli ejtcli i*?t mmib<*re<i. Now, when that in *• nnes t.i nsnumbereil ,M J, III, we look at the M ground plan, dud member IH. and that's whe:'i* the beam goes. ’

"And. \M‘- how about p IV "“That shows the flortr. We number

the members and letter tin* floors, so that M means the. thirteenth floor.' The reporter was abnit to ^‘oiiiment frivolously on Ihe regrettably small, number of letters-In the alphabet ami its effect on the future of tali build­ings, but lhe superbitendeiit continued:

“ S o . far the system seems perhaps comparatively simple, but it is whim, we come to consider the .aesthetic va­garies in the way of out dde stonework which the architect's sensitive, soul demands that, many complex problems have to be solved*. It Is when we are confronted with turrets, towers, bal­conies and bow windows and gargoyles and • ponderous copings nnd cornices tJint delicate figuring must* come into play. While it Is easy enough to cal­culate, the weight of fhe sheer walls— the .uniform- blocks of stone Isdween stories—the carved stones * forming or­nate projections must, be considered •lndlvirlPally, so that each will rest up: on ironwork of proper strength to sn«- taIn It ami of proper construe!ion to hold it In place, and this, loo, must o i k ter Into the computation of the load to be carried on its particubfr-floor, in this way many iron members will en­ter into the support of si • single stone whose only use is to satisfy the sirtisfie cravings of the architect/*

"Why Im 11 that one often sees the stonework going forward‘ on, say. tlie fourth story, while tbr Moors below stioiv only tin* Iron skeleton?"

"There are various resisons for that Nearly always there :ire huge boiler*:, engines, pumps aud the like wldeh must be put iu before the ground floor stonework begins. Sometimes there 1< delay In the7 delivery, so we start th»» stonemasons in sit some story above. This is easy enough, as all the loads have been computed long before. Then, again, the floor beams of one story may resich us sooner than those-of an­other. so we put tlie. masons on that story, or perhaps there Is much carv­ing to be done on a third story stone coping and little on tbe second. So :w not to delay this we jump lhe stone masons from the first lo the third story. .

"Von sc*." pursued the- export., "the plan, iile.ili/ed. is to keep the stone ma­sons, housesmilhs and plumbers one floor behind tiie ironworkers, tin* car­penters one. iloor behind these, the plasterers one tloor behind the car­penters. nnd so oil till Ihe top story Is finished.'*

"Would it iie possible |.i erect a twentVrfotir sior.v building hi tin* old

■ way of brick sind stom* c Mi<tructionV" asked lhe reporter.

•‘ Piissiblir, ye-., bill it \v»mld take S:,* long that i:i these days of quick for­tune builtUng fhe proposition would be commci‘c*:illy siltsurd. Von can't as- sembb* ii simie or si brick building. You’ve got to start at your foiimhuions aud raise your wails to your lirst lioor before yon can put In your srirders and beams, and so on to t.he top. Now, lay­ing stone is a slow, process, and by the old method everything had to wait for the mas’on.s and bricklayers. -Today we don't iistve to wait for anything after the caissons sire smik. We can keep sill hands biny. no unit ter how slowly au IndividustI part of the work may lie forced lo progress. Wy cjin | iu on' a stone tower before we touch the stone­work of the sidewalk flo >r.’ '

“ Is an iron const ruci ion bin id inti safer than one of stone:"

“No, simply cheaper, but just sis safe. ■Another thing, too. saves.time in mod­ern building, sind thnt is the abundance of available labor. An ironworker who Is capable of helping to rivet a big bat­tleship together or assisting in tunnel or subway or bridge construction Is quite as much in his element when lie takes part in the assembling of a great building. This fact of inter­changeable labor makes it possible to work at the very top limit of speed when occasion requires. At the pres­ent tiliio.-we hare-'one building under way nn-.which* we employ l.tJOO men

'simultaneously."As I said before, putting iip sV build­

ing today Is just like making si mod­ern watch. The various parts are. made, separately, but to fit Into each other to a ha life breadth. Those are turned over to the skilled mechanic, who sim­ply-, puts them together — assembles them;"~New York Herald.

“ Man With, the Branded Hand."The person ’ who became famous in

the amiais o f America as "The Man With the Branded nnnd" wns a Cap­tain Jonathan Walker. lie was born nt Harwlck, Mass., in 1709 nnd died at Lake Harbor, Mich., xm April 20, 1S78. On June 23, IS44, he attempted to steal seven slaves from the coast of Florida, the Intention being to tiike them to Nassau, In the.JJritish island of New Providence. When only a short dis­tance out, lie was overtaken and cap­tured by the sloop Catherine and taken back to Key West. At that place he was kept in jail until lie could be re­moved to Peusncola, where a new trial was given. He was sentenced to prison and chained by a chain and ring bolt. Ho was kept for some time Imprisoned in that manner, or until the time ar­rived to carry out a further sentence, whloh read as follows: “ One hour In tho pillory, pelted with unmerchanta­ble eggs; one year in prison for each slavo stolen; $GOO in money for'each slave and all costs nnd to be branded iipon tho right hand with the letters ‘S. S.’ (slave stealer) by a redhot brand­ing iron.” That he lived through all this Is attested by the fact thnt It was In 1678 that be died. .

Previous to !$!>}) it was one of the richest agri­cultural sections, bit*t the devastating cyclone of that year, together with ’the-depreciation of coffee values, left that region iu poor oireumstances. During the past two yours the coffee situation has improved somewhat, and the culture of tobacco, lately In­troduced', has added. greatly to busi- ness conditions. In this far-off spot on tlie map of the World our Bishop Wilson opened conference oil Thurs­day. .January 24th. . Conference in Puerto Rico and x’onforeiice in New Jersey are vastly different. Oiit there the full muster to answer roll call was ;>i members, 11 missionaries, tu local ■preachers 'and .1.0 editor tors. At the initial session Bishop Wilson spoke to Mie conference; dwelling on the unity cf believers, " lie gave a few mthutes* t:j!)t evorv morning, at the? lieglnning r:f each’ session, on practical snbje/Us, which were highly appreciated : and iinifitable to ally says K1 Defensor j Chr.is'tiano. . .

At nearly, tin* same time Bishop [ kitzGeralil was holding forth at '.the; fcreat jubHee celebration in Bareilly,! India. Preaching through an Interprc-? t< r was a novelty to the ivishop. i-Yom all accounts the great day of the feast hut there in Bareilly must have been something li-lu* the second Sunday of «ampmeeting In Oee;ui Grove, for they, had a lovefeast in a great tent RMe:} wi Mi more t him. 2,000 Christians, and the veterans were heard to remark, ;i neyer saw any thing like it before.” When these matters are considered in all their signiflennop even the most carping critic must admit that Chris­tianity is winning its-way and fcbn't the world is growing better.

; (kmgressSiuaii Benjamin P. Howell, fra in. this district of New Jersey, is bejng put forward for nomination by Speaker Cannon as one of the House members of tho commission created under the new immigration law to in­vestigate the whole subject of immi­gration. Mr. Howell Is chairman of the House committee on immigration. TUte committee (has adopted resolu­tions asking the Speaker to name Mr. Howell and two other members of the .committee—-Ben ii eft, of New York, and Burnett, of Alabama, as the house me?nhcr.s! />f the commission. It is thought that• Speaker Cannon is not

.favotablc to Mr. Howell for th e ’ap~' polntment. As' chairman of the Im­migration Committee our Congress­man was one of a majority of ; that body who favored the, proposed educa­tional test for immigrants over .sixteen’ years of age. This provision w h s in the bill as it passed the Senate.- and was retained in the bill reported by the House committee last year. The f.lncational clause was cut out after debate, and a- few weeks ago a com- promise provision for a commission investigation was put in the measure. Mr. Howell opposed this compromise, but was voted down. Wherj t'he von- ference report was Anally agreed upon this year tlie Speaker announced that tiie commission members- named by him would be men with conservative views on Immigration. And this is supposed toniean that the Speaker is opposed to appointing anybody on the commission Who favors a restriction of i?he tide of foreigners coming to this country. Mr. Howell would make a valuable member of the. commission. Perhaps - Speaker Cannon,, before, the commission is fully made up, may he of ths same mind.

'I’he case of the Ocean Grove woman who narrowly escaped serious oonso- fjue/ices as a von)ih of her garments uitch.iiig Ore from a.match struck in the early hours of the morning, while attempting to light a lump, is a splen- <lid argument for all-night lights In Ocean Grpve. The fire bell aroused thi. woman, and .she very naturally wanted to know how close to her own home was the tire, to ascertain which she had only :to consult the signal card. When you need a light at 2.HO in the uiorning you need it badly.

Should the Ocean Grove poiicemen be gI yeti Sti nd ar to t h emsel ves here- a!f. r, as seems highly proliable, they can join in singing with due propriety and true Methodistic fervo!’ tiiat gm>d old hymn: . :

Mr. Bnnvn was born iu Matawan, Attracted to O'-can (Jrove in the early days, almost, in its Inception, he re-, moved here with ’IBs family in 1S7U. His business was that of a buildim; contractor, and only a short time an* he counted up the buildings lie erect­ed Jn this place. These numbered three hundred, aside from those he re- mo.Ieleii. eighty or more. At the ttaie of his death he was the president nf the Ocean Grove and . Asbury Park pioneer Association.

-The-deceased was an urdt.nt advo­cate of temperance, refusing to >/■- eept any compromise with his con- sclenee in this, matter, always using his voice-and his vote to further the- cause he espoused. Several times lie was nominated for the office" of As­semblyman oil the. Prohibition ticket. His purse was always open to the needy, albeit his charity \VJis of the kind that kept his left hand from knowing what his rkht did.

Although an attendant and con­tributor of St. Paul's ehuiyh. Ocean Grove, Mr, Brown retained his mem* lie rs hip in the Matawan M, 15. church, He delighted to attend the’ Sunday af­ternoon meeting in Thorniey Chapel. Ocean Grove,’ in which service his voice was heard frequently in giving testimonv fo the belief which sustain­ed him all through life. The patriarchal figure, the kindly voice and the friend­ly gnsp cf the hand will be sadlv missed by many wlio.trulv mourn his departure, though fullv thf ir Joss is his .eternal

weren’t we? Well. I have a iot of it in which is exceptionally good. There’s “Gold Star Flour” at (»». c ts /a bag nnd it’s the best all round flour In the bunch, whether for bread or cake. Easy to work and makes that nice, creamy loaf which tastes so different from the ordinary kind; smacks o f the wheat, yon know. -Have also the standard 1 rands and none in fact whiqi I wouldn’t guarantee to make good broad when properly handled, Here’s a little secret if you don't al- ready know it, and that is, keep your flour warm, and you’ll get more and better bread. You know that I have fresh meats on hand now in the Ocean Grove store. Quality is the very beet the "market can produce. Well, just coiiio in and look at it; if you don’t get up an appetite when you see those bright juicy cuts of beef, I’m much mistaken. The sourkraiit Is getting loss every day; don’t you want some before it’s gone? Have, some excel:* lent cider, too; ever drink it hot? It'8 great that way; the old folks call-it "mulled.” Frank will be pleased It you give, him an order at your house and Lou and Joe are on deck in the store. •

A* it falls from the clouds It washes the impuri­ties from the air. ami as It sinks iuto the earth It dissolves many substances.; Even distilled water is r.trely pure.and caunot be kept any length o f time.

It Is a common observation that wa­ter will freeze Into ice ami'tlmt tho ice will float on the surfaee of the water with about one-tenth, o f ’ its volume above tiie surface. This Is caused by the expansion of the water, which be- glus a few degrees above the freezing point ami Increases rapidly as. the wa­ter solidities, i f water behaved as moat substances which contract and hence occupy loss space when they are

that It requires more hsat.to raise the temperature of a gi\ca height of wa­ter one degree than it does f.»r any other known snbstanee. The same amount o f hem applied to equal weights o f water and copper will raise the temperature of the cupper abuut eleven times as much as it will iu tin* case ol' the water. While tills means that It takes more heat to warm the water we use; it is otherwise to our advantage. If water ehangod its tem­perature as readily as copper. Iron or mercury it would be impossible to go

SATURDAa, MARCH 2, 1907. THE OCEAN GIIOVE TIMES

THE SALE OF A TITLE j;[Original.)

Tliore arc many strange customs iu Russia. Among the strangest Is one ■wherein a man of noble birth for a con­sideration will marry a woman and

' give her lilfl Dame and her freedom at the same time, leaving her at the mo­ment they are pronounced man and

.w ife. . fOne winter’s day iu St. Petersburg

the-beauty and fashion of the capital •were sUating ion tlie Neva. Among the throng were hyo ladies skating togeth-

,*er. A tall, Imndsome man of arlstWat- ic mien was! regarding one of them With acquiring glances as they skated by him and (asked a friend who-she •wns. ;*■ }

“ I was told Just now,” replied the •friond, ‘ ‘that! one of them was Miss --Mikhailof, the daughter of oiic of the new civil appointees, but I am uot sure; ;wbich one she is. I think she is the bru­nette. y :

Later the inah who was interested /noticed the Ijady. he liad admired—the 'bruncUe—skating alone. She tripped and fell: Darjtlng toward h w he raised, 'her. She wijs uot hurt, but he was - loath to lea vp her.. “ Permit me to Introduce myself,” he said. “ I am Coiiut Akadyovitch!’’ .--

“Count Alaidyevitch, tho eiuperor's aid-de-camp,meeds no introduction/'

“ I have been siiHiciently Interested in you to IuquU*e your name, Mias Mlk- hailof/’ j ,

Tho lady |urned her eyes upon the count, but said nothing:

Count Alm'dyevitch. received permis­sion to cull km the lady that evening.

. She left the city next day,' but not "Ue- fore inviting him to visit her a f lie r home in Kostroma. Tlie Invitation was accepted punctually on tbe day it was given for. The count fSMnd that his

mew acquaintance, with wbom he had fallen desperately in love—a .case of love at first sight-lived a .sort of queen among Iter tenants.: It was “ Miss Mikhailof, will you have this?’' or “Miss Mikhailof, will you have that?" every one being punctilious In •addressing her by name when speak­ing to her.

From the Ilrst the count received • especial encouragement. A week pass* -od, and avIkmi lie proposed to retum his intention was geutly opposed. Two more weeks he remained, and yet the lady did not signify a wish that he should go. Nevertheless the count was melancholy. A secret seemed to be gnawing at his heart. The more he became iuteiested in the lady the mote

' •depressed he became. Finally she ask­ed him the cause. .

/ ‘I dare not tell you,” he snid. “ You will despise me.”

“ Indeed!” replied the lady. “ I Insist., Have I been unwise in trusting you on

so short an acquaintance?”The count was silent for a time, dur­

ing which It was evident his sufferings were great. At last he said:

“ I was forced some years ago to do a thing I am greatly ashamed of and which now stands in the waj' o f a pos­sible happiness. When I came into my title and estate the latter was incum­bered with debt. Twenty thousand rubles were necessary to clear it. I was about to. lose it when I received through a medium an offer of the amount for my name by a woman

• who wished to be noble. I consented on condition that the marriage'should take place by proxy. The condition was accepted. and I was married. I am wedded. Imt. I have never met my wife.”

The couut bowed his head.“ You are 110 more to blame than tlie

woman who bought your name.” “ Leaving blame out o f the question.

I am prevented from yielding to the «Uctates of my heart. I cannot even honorably tel! you that I love you."

Notwithstanding the confession of the sale, the confession of love evi­dently was a delight to tiie lady. A rose color appeared at her throat and

. spread rapidly over her face. Present­ly she spoke again:

• . “ I, too, have a confession to make. ■' X am. not Miss Mikhailof.”

W o n uot Miss Mikhailof?”V'-C I “ No. You were mistaken in my name

w hen you thst met me, and I permitted you to remain mistaken. ,Mlss Mik­hailof wns a friend who skated with me.. Before your arrival here I gave instructions that every one should ad-

. -dress me when you were present as Miss Mikhailof.” ,

“Aud your real name Is?”“ I have more to confess. When 1

•came Into these estates every one told me Mint 1 should marry a noble. After waiting a long while to meet one that I could love, having failed, I resolved

' to buy a title in :tbc same inimner as you *o!d yours;”

“You-you bought a title by mar­riage:”

“ 1 did. 1 hoard of a mau who need*. ed money. I gave It for his name. Strange to say, I was married, as you were< by proxy.”

i “The barriers that keep us apart arc : double,” mon lied the count.

“ What is marriageV A . ceremony.: l)Id uot you and did not I go through

this ceramony for a consideration? Why should such a ceremony be neccs

,....sary to our union?” ' /The count was silent for u moment

•and/then snid, with a voice full of ^ grief: •

f “No, I love you too well .to degrade : you.” / • - • •

c. A ,ugw evidence of happiness ap­peared I11 her; face, especially on her JJns, on w! licli was a happy smile. / “You have not asked me my real

name,” shb said. •‘*X ask. it} now.’’,VT am tlie Cpuntess Akadyevitch.” ,

We may never see the man liimself. It is his letterhead, his envel­ope, his business card, circular or his catalog.

We size him up by that. The clev- men, as well as the. cleverest rogues,

know that, but a rogue can teach the wise a good many practical lessons. You would not say a man was successful if he sent you a bus-' iness letter on wrapping paper, eh ? Now would you ? How do you think your corres­pondents size you .up?

The man who has made a real success of his business leaves the things ' he ’ does not know anything about to competent help. John Wanamaker says that his business success has been attained by knowing where to get men who could do well what he could ..not do pass­ably. Now, if you do not know whether a printer is getting the better of yop by not'do­ing the right kind of printing for the right kind of a price, let us know. We do not charge for our experience— that is yours, for your order. .

We give style aud distinction to our work that the ordinary, everyday printer did not have the inclination to give.y You have the same thing, an individuality, aud it sticks out, When a man hears something that you have said, he says “ That sounds like Jones.” Same way with printing. Does it impress you with a style, a distinction ?

Do we do your printing ?

Types:Dull metal lo r the artist to fashion

Our work gives evidence of good taste, good ink, good paper and good type, which makes good printing. Yet it is not the ink, the paper, the type that are responsible; it is the good taste tHat moulded these agencies to­gether in the right way.

That is the reason why some printers can have all the materials required for doing work right, and yet . not do it right. So we do not talk about our equip­ment, but our way of doing work. It may sound a lit­tle egotistic, but let us show you.

What printer is respons­ible for the picturing of your success ? Is lie making you look like a successful man, or like a nobody? Do you get ideas for your money, or / just paper, ink and type,?

The difference between a successful printer and au unsuccessful printer is that the former does successful printing for successful men. You have to keep up with the band wagou ; so should your printer. But does he?

Our Native LandI some times foel that we are break­

ing loose from the> traditions and tlea that mean so much for the perman­ency of family lifc, although it i» claimed, I believe, by some, that t<his is merely an effete survival of the old feudal idea., At the same time, no matter how far away the American may remove from his native State or old home, there always clings about those cherished memories a flavor of romance that no other place can 'have, and today thousands of people make pilgrimages to Virginia or New Eng­land to seo <the spot where their fo r o fathers lived—to look upon scenes fraught with the same memories tha/t ■come to Senator Kean every day o f his- life, sas ho moved about the place which his father and grandfather toil­ed to build, not only for themselves, but the fixed ambition to establish a family seat, a home, which should be an integral part of the na/tion—that should 'be worthy o f the great country to which they belonged.—Joe Mitchell Chappie in National Magazine for -March.

In his ser.mon the preacher con- j eluded that Jesus Christ is the ulti- \ mate vision, the, ultimate Court of Ap- ] pea is, to whom we are to look, and we | therefore had better get well acquaiint- f ed with Him while we are on earth.; A pleasing feature of the morning j service was a solo, “ Fear X<?t, O ! Israel,” by Cftoir Leader Hess.

M e ssa g e fro m M r. YatriianFrom the Rev. -Mr. Yatman, who is

at Massillon, Ohio, a number of Ocean Grove . people this week received copies of a little book, entitled “ Good Tidings of Great Joy.” Mr. Yatman calls it 'the greatest book !in the world. Accompanying'the. bttok is a card up-1 on which are these, words: * “ I send you the greatest book in the world. It is all its.name implies and more, A long and wide experience has ;made me. know that Saint and Sinner, Pagan*! and Christian alike, need its contents ! from cover to cover. If tells quickly j how bad people can be made good and | good people made better and kept so. ■ Carry it with you; your smallest pock- : et will hold it. There is in it milk for babes and meat for men. There may he doubt about other books, but there ' )s none about this one.”
