these foreigners will do!"
Maud stood aloof regarding Dick
with contemptuous eyes. How like
him. to haggle with a humble mer

ture Dick was small and moan and
tyrannical
"Oh, my lord is mistaken!" returned
Glsh Dewar, with deadly courtesy In
his tones; "my lord is mistaken. The
amulet was not made In the place he
calls New York. It came from the
tomb of Prince Ammenara, a nephew
of Rameses II. of a time long past
when my lord's ancestors were poor
peasants working In the fields!"
Dick was stuttering with rage. He
felt that Maud was secretly amused
at the truthful words of the Calrene
merchant
"Yon can keep the money," laughed
Dick rudely, turning away.
Glsh Dewar gathered tho 500 piastres
into his strong hands and shook them
musically.
"I will wager my lord 500 piastres
that I will return this money to him at
the moment of his greatest humiliation^
for he has been n false friend."
Dick laughed harshly and followed
his companions. Ills good looking face
wore a scowL His thoughts were un
pleasant enough.
"What did the fellow mean?" he ask
ed himself. "What the deuce did he
mean by talking about 'false friends?' "
Mrs. Carleton was apologizing for
her son's bad temper.
"I am afraid it Is tho tropical Bun,"
she said, striving to reassure the girl
whom Dick wanted to marry. Maud
was her goddaughter and Mrs. Carle
ton had counted upon this European
trip to bring about the desired engage
ment.
They went along the bazaar, and
while Dick and bis mother picked out
a silky rug, Maud hurried back to Glsh
Dewar. Ho was sitting there In that
motionless, meditative attitude.

her light step aud then drew back into
the shadow.
In tho sunlight her face 6hono with
Its wonderful tints of cream and pink,
gray eyes, black lashed and cool, and
shimmering golden hair.
She was wasting a wonderful smile
upon the poor merchant
"I will buy the amulet," she said
softly, taking money from her purse.
"Hurry, please!"
Glsh Dewar opened tho copper box,
took out the onyx amulet and laid It
In her hand, but he waved away the
proffered money.
"Effendl has paid for It," he said In
a muffled tone.
"But I cannot take It unless you let
me pay for It The gentleman Is not a
relative; he Is merely a friend," she
said haughtily.
So Glsh Dewar humbly took the
money and locked It in his copper box.
"Wear It next your heart. It will
bring back one who loves you," he
said.
Maud slipped tho amulet Into her
purse.
"Will It bring back one I love?" she
whispered, blushing.
"From across tho world!" ho said,
and sho fled, blushing hotly.

of explanation.
After many months ennio back to her
tbo registry receipt that had accompa
nied the ring. Because it boro his
strong signature Maud kept It among
her treasures.
Ever since then Dick Carleton had
ardently wooed her.
• •••••*
Six months afterward Dick Carleton
sat in the smoking room of his club.
Ono by one his companions yawned
and went home to dress for dinner.
Dick was left alone with his gloomy
thoughts.
That afternoon he had proposed to
Maud Raymond and had been firmly
refused.
"I don't love you, Dick, and I never
shall," she bad said.
So Dick had excellent reason to bo
melancholy, and there were other un
pleasant memories that would not be
banished.
lie ordered another glass of whisky
and soda and sipped it moodily.
Out of the silence of the room n
voice spoke like the crack of a whip.
"Ah, Carleton. I was looking for you!"
Dick half rose from his choir and
confronted Elmer Winn's handsome
bronzed face. Winn's hands were
braced on the table, and his broad
shoulders leaned across the polished
mahogany.
"False friend!" he said cuttingly.
Carleton winced and sank back in
his chair. "Ail's fair in love," he mut
tered sullenly.
"False friend," repeated Winn. "Ton
wrote to me that you were already
married to Maud. I was so enraged
that I hated all of ,vou, even my coun
try, and 1 would not read a newspaper
from home. I believed your lie, and
when a few weeks later I received my
ring from her I knew you had spoken
truly.
"I left China. I liave money. I hare
wandered the world over, amusing my
self by various methods In many lands.
"Once In a bazaar In Cairo I saw you
and her, and her bands were bare of
rings. I knew she was not married to
you—that you lied!"
Carleton was cringing In his chair.
"I loved her!" he whispered hoarsely.
"So did I," reminded the other man;
then, with a sudden change of voice,
he added:
"The wager, effendl!"
"What do you mean, Winn? Why do
you spenk like the curio seller in the
bazaar at Cairo?" gasped Dick.
"Because I am he!" thundered the
other. "I became Glsh Dewar, the
curio dealer, because It amused me to
form part of that colorful life. I was
lonely. But now"—his voico softened—
"it is different. T sold the onyx amulet
to a lad.v, aud I promised her that If
she would wear It next her heart It
would bring back one she loves and
one who loves her." ITe turned away.
"Where are you going now?" de
manded Dick.
"I am going to make her wish come
true," said the man who had been Glsh
Dewar, and behind him on the table
he left a copper box containing 500
piasters.
The Palace of Thoughts.
To get peace, if you do want It,
make for yourselves nests of pleasant
thoughts. None of us yet knows, for
none of us has been taught in early
youth, what palaces we may build of
beautiful thoughts—proof against all
adversity.—John Buskin.

"Xonsense! Ptomaine poisoning goes

Paris, July 28—Reports from all
parts of France "indicate that there
lxas been a general and enthusiastic
response to the request of 'Minis
ter of Finance Ribot for deposits of
gold to add to the country's reserve.
The municipal government of Paris
deposited 800,000 francs.
Up to July 17 the Havre branch
of the Bank of France had receiv
ed 1.388,550 francs from 2,329 de
positors. Marseilles reports 2,313,
000 francs; Rouen, up to the 16th,
1,160,000 francs; Nancy more than
2,500,000 francs.
The pupils of one class in a
public school collected 2,790 francs
from their relatives and friends,
which three school boys proudly de
livered to the Bank of France.
Climato Variety In Chile.
Chile has a const line of 2,000 miles
and the breadth of the country varies
from only 10O to 250 miles. The crest
of the Andes marks the eastern boun
dary and the Pacific ocean the western.
The coast chain and the principal cor
diliern of the Andes traverse the coun
try longitudinally. Betwen them lies
the central valley, the great agricul
tural section of the country. In the
north are the arid deserts which con
tain the nitrates. In the south is the
Chilos archipelago and the mainland
where the rains are frequent and con
stant The long stretch of coast and
the variations due to the mountain
chains afford every variety of climate,
but the greater section of the country
may be said to have a temperate cli
mate. The mineral resources are the
natural wealth which furnish the ma
jor part of the purchasing power.—N'ew
York Sun.
Did She Say It?
The fair maid gnawed fiercely at the
handle of her pen. Then she bent
again over the sheet of note paper and
wrote rapidly.
"You are no gentleman," the letter
ran, "If you think I said such a thing
as she said you said I said I had said."
Next day came the reply.
"Dear girl," wrote the man—"You
must not think I think you think you
must be that kind of girl I think you
must be if you said such a thing as you
said she said I said you said you had
said."
It seems he knew she know he knew
she said Just what she sai<i she heard
he had heard her friends had heard
him say he had heard her say, but,
with infinite feminine tact, she accept
ed his a[Kjlugy.—London Mail.
The Bore.
Some student of the relatively unim
portant but nevertheless entertaining
side lines of literary history has been
investigating the origin of the term by
which we characterize the man who
habitually blockades the channels of
agreeable human Intercourse. He has
decided that the word "bore" made
Its first appearance in the letters of
Lord Carlisle and of Selwyn, but that
they used It with reference not to a
creature, but to a state or condition.
Thus in 1707 Carlisle wrote: "I enclose
a package of letters, which, If they are
French, the Lord deliver you from the
bore." It was not until the beginning
of the last century that the word was
applied to the person who wearies and
worries.—Boston Herald.
Why 6team Casts a Shadow.
Why does water cast no shadow,
while eteam, which is invisible, does
cast a shadow? Pure water In a state
of rest is of uniform density, and the
rays of light, although they may be re
fracted, pass through it almost unim
peded in parallel lines. Steam Is com
posed of vapor of different degrees of
density, Intermingled usually with
some "air, so that the rays of light en
tering it are not uniformly refracted
and therefore Interfere with and neu
tralize each other to a considerable de
gree, as counter or cross waves strike
each other down and tend to create a
smooth sea.—Chicago Herald.

A New Back for an ©Id One. How
it Can bo Done in Alaska
The back aches at'times with a
dull, indescribable feeling, making
you weary and restless; piercing
pains shoot across the region of the
kidneys, and again the loins are
so lame that to stoop is agony. No
use to rub or apply a plaster to the
back if the kidneys are weak. Al
askan residents would do well ' to
profit by the following example.
John I. Conger, prop., printing
shop, 845 N. Seventeenth St., Sal
em, Oregon, says: "My back got
weak and sore and my kidneys did
not act as they should. At times
I could hardly 'straighten. Doan's
Kidney Pills gave me relief and it
took them only a short time ' to
lid me of kidney trouble. I pub
licly endorsed them several years
ago and am glad to do so again."
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy—
get Doan's Kidney Pilis—the same
that Mr. Conger had. Foster-Mil
