' v 1 OAHTOn T A . , I A HEAET SEARCHER. X was Profeaeor Perper's only heir. Among bis effects foand In his laboratory after bis untimely departure was the orioTifl xneehanisnt be called bla "heart searcher." In appearance it resembled a Waanrbary watch. Of It Internal mechan ism I know nothing. - Professor Pepper re garded the lestrnment as the greatest In vention of the age, and be always refused So explain its principles of construction, ae ha bad aa idea that If tbe world knew bow It waa made tbe market woald be flooded with imitation heart searchers. - Fortunately for me the professor's In vention waa accompanied by a card of "di rections for use," so that I bad no diffi culty in testing Its great value as an aid In tbe search after truth. The Instru ment bad a faoa .like an ordinary watch, escept .that there waa only one band or pointer, and In place of tbe usual IS figures there were tbe names of tbe moral and immoral sentiments. At tbe top, opposite tbe stem or handle, was the sera mark, arid when not In use the pointer rested at the sero or neutral taork. From tbe stem extended two Insulated wires about a yard long, and at tbe end of these wires was a flat Ivory disk that oould be easily bid In the haad. My first experiment with tbe professor's heart searcher was calculated to inspire confidence in tbe invention. It told the truth wltb refreshing exactitude. I bad at the time of professor's demise been dwelling In a state of rather .distressing uncertainty concerning tbe feelings of my fourth cousin, Amy Clinket, toward my self. My own feelings were quite clear, at least to myself. She seemed to be all that was most desirable in a young wom an. I wanted to toll ber bow much I loved her and bed not dared, being uncertain of the result of any such declaration. Tbe heart searcher! Fortunate legacy! It might tell me all, and then I could cheer fully propose, knowing in advance that I would be accepted. First, It might be desirable to test tbe benrt searcher apon aoino minor subject. It was tbe first experiment that led me to press boldly forward in the search for tbe pure troth. I plaond the heart searcher in my vest pocket and secured it there with a watch chain, to give tbe impres sion that I bnd my watch witb me. Tbe wires I raised through the sleeve of' my coat, leaving tho Ivory disk just bid in my ccf. Thus armed I set forth In tbe quest of tbo tinkninvahla. I took the trolley car, Intending to ical.a calls. Iu tbe car I met my young niece Diana, aged 7. Slipping tbo disk into uiy hand, I cordially took ber bcr.d and i rcsssd tbe disk against ber active little pulse. Pretending to be ab-scrK-d in learning tho tiino of day, I asked ber sundry questions, and nt once saw pic tured on tbe dial of tbe beart aearcber every passing chango In the dear child's transparent natura. " Are you not glad to see me, dear" Tbe pointer swung slowly around to "delight," "What are your views, my child, apon tbe subject of caramels?" Tbe pointer on the dial promptly moved to "hope." This was significant. Clearly tbe beart searcher waa a most important invention. Tbe deer child ot once expressed herself aa Interested in caramels, concluding her remarks witb tbe information that she knew of a place where they sold "two for 6." Manifestly the Instrument and my young relative's words did not agree. She waa evidently torn witb conflicting emo tions, for tbe pointer quivered slightly and moved to "disappointment. " She did not wish to plainly ssk for caramels, and yet In the deep recesses of her young heart she hoped I would give ber some. "I'm very sorry, my child, but I have no caramels with ra& If I had only known I should meet yoa, I would have brought some with ma" Tbe pointer waa greatly agitated and vibrated between "disapointment" and "doubt" I at once offered tbe child a dime, and to my amazement tbe dial indicated "dis appointment" only. "Ob, I beg pardon. Let me see. Was that a quarter? Dear me. I'm sorry I made such a mistake. Here's a quarter. " At once tbe pointer swung swiftly to "delight" The heart searcher was a triumphant success. I squeezed the dear child's band once more. Tbe dial marked "gratitude." "Good by, deer. I must get off here." She smiled sweetly and said, "They give IS for a quarter. " This seomed to be truth based upon experience and did not need examination by tbe professor's wonderful Instrument. ! As 1 left tbe car I saw young Brown of ear office walking quickly down the street, aa if in baste to catch a train. I grasped bis band fervently. "My dear boy, I'm so glad to meet you. How is your mother and your sister-in-law and yoar brother, Tbecdore Augustus? You have plenty of time," I remarked as I pretended to look at my wutch. He pulled bis band away ami said In bla usual breezy manner: "Delighted to meet you. Good by train awful late. By" He waa gono, and I gazed x upon tbe white faoe of the beart searcher. Although disconnected wltb my frieDd's pulse, the pointer atill lingered at "botheration." It was .more than an bour before it finally settled back to zero. Brown bad evidently a very powerful emotional nature. Tbe beart searcher waa a remarkable in strument. It reported tbe exact emotional troth concerning tbo subject. It was in deed a boon to bashrul lovers. They could. by its skillful nse, ascertain tbe exact state of the beloved one's beart without tbe dis tressing uncertainty of a formal proposal. I would at once put it to Its greatest test. If It proved successful, I could proceed to manufacture beart searchers upon a largo scale, snd no doubt live in comfort upon tbe resulting profits. Amy was at home when I called, and when I shook her hand warmly I glanced hastily at tbe telltale dial "expectation." This was encouraging. I would proceed to unfold my tale of lovo. I still beld ber band witb loverlike fervor and stammered forth my blushing confession. At Inter vals I pluioed at the white face of the beart searcher. Ita sensitive pointer was greatly agitated and quivered from "sur prise" to "anger" and from "anger" to "cold disdain." Finally it stopped at "doubt" "But, my door, I I love yon." Tbe fatal words were oat. "I don't believe one word yoa say. You are looking at your watch all the time, just to see how soon yoa can go." Tbe beart scare ber fell from my nerve lees hand and was dashed to a hundred pieces. 'I No. I never repaired It, Amy baa con vinced me that It is. In tbe words of tbe poet, "better not to Luow,' Tbe unknow able is tbe truly wisa. Amy Ob! Pardon me. She married another man. Charles Barnard in H-jme hlagaalne. Cofua Plates aa Oraamenta. Miss Maria Louise Pool, writing on tbe adaptability of tbe ooQln plate as a room 'ornsment. Bars In the Boston Transcript: When I was driving from Barksulre coun ty down to Boston some years ago, I stop ped at a prominent house Iu a village. In this hoase dwelt a distant connection of my traveling companion, which explains why wane 1 ted there rather than at a hotel. At night we were conducted to a large chara ber, on tbe mantelshelf of which were placed tbe eoffin plates of the deceased members of tbe family. These plates were set np so that names and dates were easy So be read. Over tbem was a mourning piece, with tombstone, weeping willow and three mourners at tbe grave. In tbe morn-- i Ing our hostess tried to persuade ns to stay longer, offering as an Inducement to take na to tbe cemetery. We didn't stay. But this la not typical.

The cotton market opened firm at an sdvacca of three to six points. The Opening call developed a fair degree of activity, witb considerable buying for New Orleans and Liverpool account. After the first call there waa a ioaa of one to three points, but the market again turned firm aad advanced ia tbe general way four to five points from tbe lowest figure, with prices finally aix to nine points above tne closing level of yester day, witb the market very steady. While the market waa not decidedly active, the general phases were very firm and es pecially so In the afternoon. There was a sharp upward movement just before the close in covering by aborts, started by the appearance of renewed buying orders for Liverpool account. The gen eral run of cotton crop news is bullisb, especially lor Texas, Mississippi and the Arkansas valley. The Liverpool ad vices were aomewhat diaappointing to day aa to public market cables, but the presence of considerable numbers of English buying orders more than offset this feature. - Nxw York.
