A delicious tide of red drowned out
the offending flecks. Doll began to in-

crystal sheet by her side.
"Heavens! what a blush!” cried
merciless Jane, peering at her face in

Doll gave the postman a dazzling
smile that made him think August was
near, then, in haste banged the door
in his face. She flew to a palm-screen-
ed corner and kissed, then rent, the
envelope. A clipping from a newspa-
per fluttered out. She caught it up and
read:

"Jove!” he cried. "I'll not lose a

He swallowed his dinner heedlessly,
then dressed with deliberate pains. He
had heard that he was handsome, but
had never cared much before. Now he
took keen notes in the glass. d es, his
features were well put together, his
coloring, strong and dean. His figure
was built for action, with a sort of vir-
ile grace. Women liked him, he knew.
'"omen? Who cared for the plural,
when one woman turned her face?
Eight o'clock found him ringing at her
door. A new maid opened it to him.

started when he said: "No name.

portier fell with a flounce. Doll, be-

fore h s eyes. At sight of him she grew
as pale and limp as the lace that trem-
bled at her hands. The freckles troop-
ed out thick as starB. Theft she
straightened, like a white sail in a gale,
and viewed him from a splendid
height.
"You. Mr. McLain?"
He took a hasty stride or two, that
brought him close to her side.
“Yes, I—It’s X!” he cried, hotly
“you’ve treated me unfairly, Doll I ve
come to tell you so-”
She laughed a queer little strangled
laugh, and lifted one hand to her
throat. Never had he looked to her
so handsome, so earnest, so manly, so
—clear. She swallowed the big lump
that choked her. and gazed at him with
stony scorn.
"I'm not the only fellow, Doll, that
ever told a girl she was loved!”
Doll gave a little gasp.
“I don't—understand you," she said.
“I don't think you do.” replied Doc
“Now, Doll, what does it mean?"
She drew an envelope from her gown.
“I've not looked at it since,” she
cried.
“My wretched tact, I suppose, said
Don; “it serves me exactly right. I
should have spoken myself, as I ought
to have done, and not sent a proxy of
a poem!”
“Poem!” cried Doll, with staring
eyes; “it was a horrid wash!”
Don turned the slip he held. He felt
too serious to laugh, just then, but a
smile curved his handsome lip. Doll
snatched the slip from his hand and
read, this time, its other face:
Does she love me?
Does she hate me?
This, I question, night and day.
She read no more. The paper flut-
tered down. He caught her hard, by
both wrists.
"Which is it. Doll?” he cried, low.
and tense, "which is it? Tell me

We have been working regularly at
this for a number of yvars, writes M.
labiison in National Stockman. Twice

necessary to use a tedder on account
of heavy swath the leaves would be
whipped off. We have succeeded best
when we started the mower after a
few heads had turned brown. When
we have the work started we do most
of the cutting in the evening. When
there is not time after five o’clock
supper to get down before dark thi
required area we commence earlier.
The dew will be on top of this, and
by starting the tedder early it can be
cured very rapidly. But we doubt
anything is gained by cutting while
dew is on in the morning, even if the
tedder follows directly after the mow-
er. It will dry as quickly standing as

moisture la the evening. If cut at the
proper stage we do not think it can
be sufficiently cured to put in stack
or mow the next day after cutting.
When the ground is very dry it may
be safe, as the heat in the soil below
and sun above cure it very rapidly. H
to be hauled on the wagon it will do
as well to leave in large windrows the
second night as to put in shock. The
morning of the third day after cut-
ting. after the dew is off, open out the
windrows or shocks, and as soon as
well cured and heated by the sun s
rays, begin to haul in. If unloaded
■with horse fork or sling every bunch

under the track and tumble over into
the mow. When this is done the com-
pact mass under the track will "mow
burn” and come out dark in color, and
have a dry burned flavor. Sometimes
we drop a few loads in this way and
the next morning before we cau work
In the field all this is moved and placed
away in the mow. This moving we
think quite an advantage, as it lets the
air through it again without danger of
blacking it and drives out the heat and
moisture that have accumulated during
the night. It cannot be put in the
mow too dry, but it is a very easy
rid of some of the perennial part of the
fungus; but the most thorough atten-
tion only partially checks the disease
and It is doubtful If the results pay for
the effort.
Plum trees are affected with diseases
produced by very similar fungi. The
spring growth, sometimes the leaves,
but more usually the shoots, are puffed
and whitened, and greatly distorted, the
young stems occasionally becoming a
half inch to an inch thick, soft and hol-
low. In other cases the fruit is simi-
larly affected. The plums are paler,
more elongated, soft and hollow, with-
out a trace of a pit. These are often
called “plum pockets,” and sometimes
"bladder nliims.” Like the peach curl,
this disease winters over in the ends
: of the twigs, and a tree once attacked
will be likely to show the disease from
: year to year. But as a rule only a few
branches of a plum tree are attacked,
and cutting away these branches may
rid the tree of the disease. No other
remedies are known.—J. C. Arthur,
Botanist.
Pasturing Field* too Farly.
When crops are planted for the pur-
pose of using for the double purpose
of a future crop and fall pasturage,
the pasturing should not be done while
the plant Is yet small. Take clover as
an illustration. There is a temptation
to put the stock onto it as soon as it
is large enough to make good pastur-
age. But if this be done it is evident
that the development of the roots will
be prevented, for the root can develop
only in proportion to the development
of the top. Now If we sow clover we
do it because we expect to reap great
good from the clover roots in the soil
as well as for the part that appears
above the ground. We must therefore
treat the field in a manner that will
cause the greatest development of the
root. We think it is therefore better
to allow the plant to attain its full size
thu3 driving down the root into a re
gion of eternal moisture. If the crop
be fed off after that the root will re
main and the redevelopment of the
plant will be rapid. The same is large
ly true of the grasses when a good sod
is desired. Too early cropping by
stock will prevent the formation of
new sod and if there be an old sod it
will be greatly weakened and thinned.

THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS
is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the Califoknia Fio Syrup Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
imitations manufactured by other par-
ties. The high standing of the Cali-
fornia Fio Syrup Co. with the medi-
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken-
ing them, and it does not gripe nor
nauseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of

Realistic Vreaehlnc.
As a preacher, especially to the imag-
ination and to the heart, Dr. Guthrie
was incomparable. It has been regard-
ed as one of the greatest proofs of
George Whitefield's power that on one
occasion he drew such a vivid picture
of a ship in distress, her masts dis-
mantled, her hull rapidly filling with
water, and the crew utterly helpless,
that when he asked. "What next?' a
sailor in the audience shouted out. as
if the scene were real, "Take to the
long boat.” Hardly less striking was
the effect in Dr. Guthrie's church on
a Bimilar scene, for it was said he could
not preach without a fire or a ship-
wreck. One who was present described
it thus: "During one of Dr. Guthries
powerful appeals to the unbeliever to
close with the offer of free salvation
through Jesus Christ, he described a
shipwreck and the launching of a life-
boat to save the perishing crew in
such vivid colors that the dreadful
scene appeared actually to take place
before our eyes. Captain C., a young
naval officer, who was sitting in the
front seat of the gallery, was so elec-
trified that he seemed to lose all con-
sciousness of what was around him

RelAtlon of Conformation le Shoo Fitting.
This subject of fitting is so broad
and covers so many different points
that it is impossible to treat it fully
unless unlimited time and space I*
given to the consideration; therefore
V0 will for the present confine our-
•elves to but one feature, viz.. tR*
hind fitting, and in conjunction with
the subject also treat in a passing way
conformttion and the necessity of
studying It when attempting to fit a
shoe, says a practical horseshoer in
the Horseshoers’ Journal. In shoeing
a horse any intelligent man will, be-
fore starting the operation, first study
the conformation. He will look firnt
at the limbs and then the position t e
feet occupy towards the limb. Then
following up his subject he will look
at the position the feet occupy on t e
ground. He will find some limbs,
mean the lower portion, for this is out
main point of observation, with long
drawn pasterns, bound or cm be
hocked, others short in pastern am
straight hocked. Some feet he wi
find long toed and low heeled, others
the reverse, with a short, stubby toe
and upright heels; again he may fin'
the long-toed and low-heeled foot to
be wired or dipped in. Then to the
position, we will find some toeing out,
some occupying a straight or direct po-
sition, and some, though the case is
rare, decidedly pigeon-toed.
Here are three distinct positions that
the feet occupy on the ground. It may
be asked, what has the limbs or their
conformation to do with the shoe or
its shape? Simply this: A shoe prop-
erly adjusted will serve the purpose of
sustaining the flexor ligaments accord-
ing to the demands of the case. 1'°‘
instance, the long-toed and low-heele
foot will, as a rule, be found on horses
with long pasterns and, as may be
6een in many cases, the same kind o
conformation in the lower part wi
generally be accompanied by a bone'
hock; this is a common case and is
to some extent to be expected when
the general line of conformation is
considered. Now, in such a case, it
wiU be noticed that many fitters will
shoe with a long outside mule-shaped
heeled shoe. The practice is a wrong
oue unless other conditions demand. If
we find tha^the long-toed, low-heeled
font looks straight ahead, we should,
to be correct in our practice of fitting
iL_xe§orl to the extra length on both
heels antf not on the one heel alone.
The latter method is injurious, inas-
much as it tends to throw the foot out
of balance by forcing undue strain on
the interior ligaments of the leg, and
also creating a tendency to friction on
the joints of the foot bones. But when
it Is found that the toe is long and
heel low and the foot looks out after
the manner found in cow-hocked
horses, then we can with justice to the
case apply the long outside heel to the
shoe, turning or nailing it outwardly
as much as the case may demand.
Now, In the case of the straight-
pasterned and direct-looking feet the
plain necessity is to follow the lines
of the foot and keep the heels of the
shoe regular and even, neither being
longer than the other. We will no-
tice in all such cases that the limb3
and feet occupy direct lines from the

and often the fruit, on account of the
weakened condition of the tree, drops
also. Healthy leaves after a time re-
place the diseased ones, and in the lat-
ter part of the season the trees regain
normal appearance. This disease is
known as “leaf curl." and is caused by
a fungus that penetrates the tissues,
and on the surface forms spores so
abundantly as to make the leaf look
pale. Most of the injury during any
season, however, does not come from
the spread of the spores, hut from the
part of the fungus that lives over the
summer and winter in the ends of the
twigs and buds. Although the trees
appear to quickly recover from an at
