little town of Mid way Mr James Bartelle He was the wealthiest man in the county and besides having an aristocratic wife he was the father of two daughters VIola and Jennie Their ages were eighteen and twenty Viola possessed pleasing disposition agreeable with everyone with whom she met while nnie took after her parent was never seen in company with those who were not financially up in the world Their father had lands many blooded horses and large herds of thoroughbred cattle Besides he had much surplus means Viola being the favorite in the locality she had many suitors for her hand the propositions coming om young men whose parents stood high socially and financially She was not easily pleased at least none of the offers came from persons whom she considered worthy The habits of some were repulsive the dispositions others contrary to her own One day while Viola was shopping Midway she was introduced to Mr Eugene Gifford a young man who had just been employed in the largest dry goods establishment in the place He had a manly countenance and was a pleasing and obliging salesman and his manner very much impressed VIo- la and Mr Gifford was equally pleased with his new found acquantanc When Viola returned home she Informed her sister Jennie of meeting the new clerk and how favorably she was impressed Nothing more was said sari in a few days Viola again visited the store She was waited upon by Mr Gilford who was ex ceedingly agreeable and when the time came for her to start he accom panied her to the buggy and asked If he could have the pleasure of calling to her at her home The request was granted and about one week thereat ter young GIfford drove up to old man Bartelles residence He was met at the door by a colored boy ushed Into the parlor and in a few minutes Viola appeared Two hours were happily passed and when the time for him to take his leave arrived he was deeply- In love with Viola and Viola enlertain the same tender feelings for him Mr GIfford made the second and third visit but before the time for the fourth arrived old man Bartelle had been In rmed that his daughters suitor was ly a poor young man clerking in a dry goods store He forbade her to longer keep his company and young Gifford did not again visit the house This however did not prevent him from meeting Viola as social gather ings In the county frequently threw them together The obstinacy of old manBartelle did not deter the young couple and finally they became engag They could not marry at home and they fell upon this plan Viola had influential relatives living in Lou- Isville and she decided to Pay them a visit She went and in a few weeks young Gifford followed meeting Viola a designated place they crossed over to Jeffersonville Ind and were secretly married Returning to Lou Viola went to the home of be- elatives r and her husband to a hotel They remained In the city several days meeting frequently but so close did they guard their secret noon o suspected that they were man arid wife Young Gifford returned to Mid way before his wife reached her home and then iiwas some days before they could arrange to meet After the first meeting they were together cl ldes finely often trying all the time tp tall upon a plan to break the news to Yo las parents Finally the marriage could no longer be kept from tbeo folk1iand Viola told them the wine le

the story by her real DameViola and doubtless those who are perusing the naratlve would like to know ot mysterious disappearance from Aunt Liz zies house It was on a bright moonlight night in the month of December Viola had retired early and was dozing Into a sslumber when there was a tap uponfi her window Igtantly she was She listened a few minutes and pres ently she heard a voice perfectly fa smillerfrom the room She obeyed quickly and stood In the presence of her uncle MrBenBartelle who Informedher that her father desired that she return home at once There is Is no time tor farewells said her uncle Leave the babe for the present step Into the buggy the greater portion of our jour ney must bo traversed before day light In an instant they were on tic road and the next afternoon at 3 ocloc ahe was received at her firth ers palatial residence Her father mother and sister Jennie were per fectiy delated to have her again at home and theyoUu ecpof the vl cinlty who had been given to understand that Viola wan off on a long vis it flocked in great numbers to sec her One thins was very noticeable Viola had but little to say and It was frequently remarked that she looked troubled J that something of a very serious nature was bearing heavily upon her mind After he had been at home two0 three months she concluded to make a confident of Mr Arthur St Clair who was her fathers bookkeeper she hav ing not yet seen or heard from Eugene She told him the story of her life and where her son was located and was horrified to learn that Mr Gifford dis appeared from Midway about the same time she left home and that all efforts to find him had proven futile The shock was so unexpected that Viola had to bo carried to her room sad it was some days before she again appeared among the home circle One day she told Mr St Clair that she had perfect confidence in Eugene and believed that some day he would re turn to her In the mentlrae said shel want you to do me a favor He consented and she handed him the note that appeared earlier in this story with the request that he go atone e to the home of Aunt Lizzie Sharp in Adair county Ky and deliver itto the old lady The trip was made as the reader has already been informed For twelve years Mr St Clair made regular visits to see the boy but never revealed to any person that they1 were made at the request of the child s mother After Walter was old enough to attend school KrSt Clair would meet hint upon the hlllhwayenI8Ke him in conversation and when they would1ieparauhe Invariably gave him a purse of money telling him to use It

Since the price ofpapnr has ad Tiinced to an uncomI9rtabede- gree we are inclined to believe that many newspaper men are realizing that the commercial world needs no trusts and further that newspaper men nor the millions of readers of papers and books are not specially blessed by the high protective tariff of 000 per ton on white papernor are they bene fitted by a tariff on wood pulp There is no doubt in the mind of any rational man who has watched the formation of trusts their operation and their effect ron busi ness as to what the ultimate con sequences will be nor can we believe that any good business man will deny that under a high pro tective tariff trusts can be more readily formed and more success fully operated Today the newspaper men are contending with a newspaper trust that controls the entire salo of paper and this pa per trust has formed and is oper ating under the protection of 600 per ton on white paper which is no less than a tax on intelligence a system of extracting from the many to protect and enrich the few In the year 1899 paper was forced up in price 60 per cent which to the newspaper man is a tremendous burden and which will if continued force the suspention of many publications or reduce them to the verge of insolvency paralyzing their influence and power There is no just reason why a tax should exist on paper for the publications of today are potent factors in the general dis tribution of knowledge in dis im nating current history and giving the poorest of the land an oppor tunity to become familiar with the entire world The price is still advancing andno one except those who control it know when it will stop nor how high it will go but it is evident to the country publisher that should it go much higher he must advance the price of his paper or quit the business An advance in the price of his pa per means a decline in its circulation and its advertising hence to our mind we see more good solid relief by the abolishing of the tax on paper and pulp than any other moans within the power of Con gress or within the reach of pub lishers To our mind this is strict ly a business matter that should be wrested from the clutches of political prejudice of publishers and regardless of party affiliation demand that paper and pulp be placed on the free list If the en tire press would demand the above from Congress purely as a busi ness matter we feel confident that the pressure would bring that which we desire and need The destruction the paper trust and Federal tax on paper means the saving to publishers of 15000 000 annually the continuance of this burden means that the peo pie or the publishers must pay that amount for the privilege of reading The trusts the publica tionsor the people must be busted which will it beTe hope that the many publishers in this State will unite in demanding from our Representatives in Congress that they use all legitimate means to abolish the Federal tax on pulp and paper or that we call on our Representatives at Frank fort to petition by resolution in behalf of the publishers and readers of papers oui Federal Representatives to uproot the proto tion under which the paper trust is
