Ann Dl ekerman had been so devoted that it; was the general remark at Union Center, "looks as if sun- thin' was goin' to come from it," and everybody appeared to wish them land hope for the anticipated. Joe It was allowed had some gumption and fair prospects, and "the DIckerman girl's a right pert mil" Young Parrtee was a carpenter, running his own shop and all the while managing to make a few dollars beyond his modest icqiiircninnts, and putting away the. surplus for the proverbial rainy day, which the forehanded New Englantler is always providing against. To be sure there was never much new building going on in the old fashioned town, but there was repairing and jobbing, an'i the alert and willing Joe Parfiee made sure to capture his share of the business.

If you wanted a job done right off in a hurry, Pardee was the man to undertake it. That was what the landlord at the Union house told the contracting agent of the circus, remarking: "Pardee will put up your boards on time an' 'cordin' to contract, an' he won't charge you onreasouable, neither." On the tavern keeper's recommend our carpenter got the job, and proceeded to put up the circus bill boards in quick time. Joe was a great worker, and it was just fun to see him swing a hammer and send the flying into the boards. Mary Ann stopped at the partially erected bill board, on her way to the postofflce, and remarked: "Circus coming, Mr. Pardee?" She is always called him Mister in the presence of others.

Joe was equally punctillious in his reply. "Yes, Miss Dickerman, and the agent says it the best show on the road. "Of course he does," laughed Mary Ann, "he's, hired to tell it." and then she added, 'spose you're goin', Mister Pardee?" Was that a hint? The man stepped a little closer to the maid, so that the workmen and the loungers could not hear, and said in a low voice: "I'm goin', Mary Ann, providiu' that you go with me?" The maiden reddened, looked down on the ground, and murmured: "Of course, Joe," and then she remarked, "must be a good show, that is the longest board I ever seen put up in our town." "Tis," coincided the carpenter, regarding tfce object of. his affections admiration. "I wonder if the Champion of Everything te with the show?" inquired Mary Ann.

"He must be by the size of the bill- AS tl3fe carpefttef, wished that It was over, and every time that the Champion of Everything appeared he wished that he might break hia neck in his foolhardy feat. Mary Ann was charmed and Jco alarmed. To add to the annoyance of the carpenter tho Champion of Everything had recognised tho lady at his side and the gay Mary Ann was aware of tho tact. When the young men began to cry the tickets for the concert Miss Dick- erniRn recognized the presence of her escort enough to fiay: "Goin' lo-soe the concert, Joel" "Guess not. Mary Ann; 'taint probable thai; 'mounts to much." "But 1 dearly want to ce it; it's i.nch fun," wheedled tho girl.

The escort bought the tickets r.nil n.inaincd to "after Vvhilo Hie audience wos passing nut POUND At THE INDIANA EiRAU SPRINGS, IND. nhcnmatUm, Kidney, Blood, Skin and Nprvons BlR Hotel Been Erected and People Are There from All the C'onntry to Uatlio In the Mud. and the preparations were going on A deposit of most remarkable mud discovered In Indiana, has of recent years been attracting wide-spread attention. It is located at the Indiana Mineral Springs, Warrsn county, and has been formed by the action of the water from the famous Magno-Lithia springs. Through countless ages the foliage of magnificent oaks on the hillside has annually fallen into a basin, and has been reduced by nature into a pure black earth unmixed with roots, i Tt-nfor frnm boards," replied Joe.

Carpenter Pardee sized all shows by the size of the billboard they erected. "Well, I hope he is," continued the maiden, about to resume her errand An outraged friend is worse than dozen enemies. "OF COURSE, JOE." to the postoffice. "When I was visiting over to Republic, a year ago last summer, a show came there and it had the Champion of Everything with it, and he was the sma -test man I ever saw "Shoo?" "Yes, an 1 he beat 'em all." "Do tell?" "Yes, an' he was just like a picture, an' Eech curly hair "Dch't say?" "Yes, an' I as introduced to him." Joe's underlip dropped, but in an it.slant he pretended he didn't mind, and as Mary Ann pursured her way he hoped that the Champion of livery- thing might not come to with the approaching circus. It was three weeks before the circus came to town, but in that time Joe experienced at least three months of existence, but wnen the show did arrive the young carpenter was probably the happiest and proudest man in town as he escorted Mary Ann Dickerman to the mvch heralded performance.

The performance had not long progressed before his fair companion, quite forgetful of the presence of others, exclaimed: 'Good! There he Champion of Everything!" Joe was nettled at his companion's de-light, and made as if not to notice it, but as the star artist was sueli a versatile fellow, and withal the master of everything, he continued to draw Iicm the delighted Mary Ann the most enthusiastic expressions To repeated outbursts Joe expressed himcelf: "He is a couceity chap." If Mary Ann had heard the remark the would have resented it. for the concert, the carpenter regained his mental equilibrium, but his pence of mind was again upset when there came climbing up the seats that most versatile of arenic artists, the Champion of Everything, who made directly for Mary Ann Dickerman, and presented himself with graceful bows and scrapes. Mary Ann introduced the young man, but Joe Pardco did not catoh the name; it was all that he could do to catch his breath. The escort of the young lady thought, that the athlete and the maiden were altogether too glad to meet. But what could he say? What could he do? The concert progressed to an end, but how it got through the carpenter never remembered.

Was it a dream, and did he wake up when the circus folks cried "All over." The audience arose, so did the trio. The Champion of Everything had the audacity to give his hand to Mary Ann and assist her off the treacherous seats. Joe Pardee managed to get to the solid earth, but even the.t seemed to move from under him. He was dazed, staggered. The athlete turned, doffed his hat, and said: "Good afternoon, M-i-s-t-e-r Pardee; happy to have met you." Then, with amazing assurance, he gave his arm to Mary Ann, and they walked away, leaving him standing there, not knowing whether he was alive or not.

The people bumping up against him aroused him, and he passed out so shamefaced, so hurt, that he could have cried. To think of it, that Mary Ann Dickerman, his intended, should have ever come to play such a trick upon him in the presence of hundreds of the people of Union Center, who knew them both so well. Some young men would have gone and done something desperate, took a drink, or begun to go down hill at a rapid pace. Joe did nothing of that kind; he stuck to his work, held up his head and came to the wise conclusion that he was fortunate in knowing Mary Ann for what she was worth in time. Of course people talked, and a good many jibes and smart sayings reached the unwilling ears of the carpenter, but he kept his own counsel and was busy with the saw, the hammer and the edgo tools.

It. had been prophesied by the wiseacres of the town that Joe and Mary Ann would make up, and that the original matrimonial program would be carried out, and it is probably a tact that the fascinating Mary Ann coquetted to that end. If she did she made, a sorry failure. When the summer's tenting season was over the marvel of the arena came up to Union Center and claimed his prize; to be explicit, the departure of Mary Ann Dickerman from town with the Champion of Everything comes under the head of an elopement. Two years later a circus show came to Union Center again, and with 'it chanced to be that, remarkable performer with whose famous performance we are already familiar.

He and Joe Pardee, the carpenter, came upon each other face to face down at the Union house before parade. The husband of the former Mary Ann Dickerman extended his hand: "You remember rm?" "Course," rep'ied Joe, taking the proffered hand. Tho two men surveyed each other during a rather awkward pause, the carpenter noting that the athlete looked careworn and much changed. The Champion of Everything at that moment removed his hat to rub the beads of perspiration from an entirely bald head. "Well." explained the carpenter, thoughtlessly.

"If you haven't lost every hair on our head since I saw you last'" "Yes," sighed the circus man, "you must remember 1 have been married for two years." stones or sand. The water from the big spring for thousands of years has been soaking this deposit and saturating it with mineral salts, until now there is a layer of medicated mud abctit two acres in extent and from ten to twenty feet in thickness. The strange medicinal value of this pmiliar, black, porous substance was accidentally discovered by an old soldier, Sam Story, had brought rheumatism home from the war and suffered with it for years. He was attempting to dig a drainage ditch through the mud deposit, and after indulging in this useless experiment for a week or more, gave up the idea, meanwhile had been cured of his rheu- nifiti.sm. The fnmc of the mud began to spreac and afflicted congregated at the Springe from everywhere.

The method of using the mud was at. first very primi tivo. the patient merely sitting dowi in the deposit where nature had laid it.
