I have always had an abundance of suitors. It has been different with you. you know There did use to be talk that you and Henry Howard would make a match of it. but 1 never believed it. Yon are not Henry s style.” “I never thought of such a thing as marrying Henry Howard —or anyone else." denied Marcia crisply. "How fortunate that is." Lucy spoke with a malicious assumption of sym pathy. “I may as well tell you." she confessed, "that I have about decided to accept Henry." "To accept Henry?" Marcia set her newly iced cake perilously near the edge of the table. "I did not know he ever thought of you." "No, I have never given him any en couragement, but I have long known what I could do if I would It has not been easy to decide among so many " Marcia's sniff of disbelief passed unnoticed, “but the sight of Henry’s loneliness makes him seem worthy of the sacrifice of my freedom lam going to send him a valentine as the most graceful and romantic way of letting him understand my attitude." A valentine! Marcia finished her work as if in a dream Then, unexpectedly, she laughed out with unwonted gayety "If one vaien tine is good, two ought to be tetter. 1 tbiuk I'll send Henry a valentine myself!" Amassment filled the prosaic soul ot Henry Howard when he found the contents of the big envelope to be a val entine As he considered it, his sedate, middle aged h art began to warm unaccountably. "Now, that's real thoughtful of Lucy, I'm sure. I haven't had a valentine in so many years I'd forgotten how ft seemed. It is a fine thing to keep one's youth as Lucy has " It was late tn the afternoon before he remembered to look at the othei letter he had received in the same mail. After he had read it, he sat for a long time looking meditatively at the windows of the next house. "I believe I'll go over —she’s never asked me before to dine with her, and Marcia is a master cook I—l believe I'll tell her what I mean to do, too; she’s got a pretty sensible head, Mai cla has " If a woman is no older than she looks. Marcia had certainly lost a good ten years of her age when she greeted Henry Howard in her Immaculate front hall

‘‘And this,” he said, "is whst I have been cheating myself out of for the last fifteen years. I find it rather lonely In my big hsuse, Marcia." "Yes," answered Marcia demurely, pouring the coffee. ‘l've been thinking lately that I have been foolish to live alone so iong Do you suppose anyone could be induced to have an old fellow like me?” “Oh, yes,” Marcia milled across the centerpiece. “WH! you, Marcia?" He could herdly credit the fact that h's ears heard Henry Howard asking any woman to marry him. The next Instant he had gone round the table and gathered her cold fingers into his warm, strong hands. "Why. I love you, Marcia. I’ve wanted you all the time and did not know it; would you believe a man could be so foolish and blind?" ~- “Yes,” whispered Marcia, “I have been, too, until today." Upon this interesting tableau the door opened unexpectedly, xtd Lucy Stoddard stood transfixed. “Come in. lAicy,” called the man heartily. "You shall be the first to Congratulate me.

WANTED HUSBAND TO LOAF Only Then Was He Agreeable, Testi tied Wife—Sought Divorce From Her Silent Spouse. We read of him in three places in the dispatches of the day. The first case was where a man kissed his wife against her will, which made her so mad that she had him arrested for assault and battery, and the court sentenced him to thirty days in jail. Next case was where a woman had her husband arrested for getting drunk and abusing her. When before the court, here is what she said: "My man’s a fine man when he's sober. The trouble Is he earns money and spends it on liquor. The only time he's behated himself was when he wasn't working and got no money. 1 have an income'and can suimort the family. I wish you'd make him quit xoA.” "All right," said the judge. And he sentenced the husband not to work for thirty days. The third case was a suit for divorce, where the wife charged that her husband would not speak to her He would eat his meals without a word, then sit down with a paper and read without looking nt her or speak •ng to her. bo it has oeen going on for a long time. Os course the court granted the wife a divorce. Having a silent, sour husband around is intolerable.—Ohio State Journal. Torment of Cold. I thank heaven that I know what it is to be cold; to be cold from the crown of the head to the sole of the foot, to be cold from the cuticle to the heart, and from the heart to the soul 1 thank heaven for it, because, know’Ing this, 1 have a new revelation of the possibility of suffering, and I am able to find a paradise in a common wood fire. Knowing this, ’ declare to you there is not a mo- p*tt-.fe sight In the world than a poo: man who la thoroughly cold from week to week. It is the refinement of torture. It does not gnaw like hunger; which presently becomes a sort of Insanity and relieves Itself; it is a dead unblest, icy torment. I used to see men In the army whoso silent endurance of cold brought more tears to my eyes than all the hunger and all the wounds.—Sidney Lanier. Family and Morals.

All theories of the orlgm and dr* relopment of morals agree on one liolnt, that the family is the root out of which sympathy and th.) social vlr. lues have grown, however religion ana soilal laws may have varied. What Is right in married life is like that which la right in the larger lite of xl qWhat the strong find usetul becomes a duty to the weak.
