(Copyright, by W. G. Chapman.) It was n seed sowed in receptive and fertile soil, that nugget of a dark suspicion instilled by a chronic gossiper within the mind of Mrs.fGordon Hall. "Isn't it awful what deceivers the men are? Oh I I'm not mistaken about Mr. Winters. You see, my sister who lives in the city, spent a week here last summer and met Mr. Winters a score of times." "And she wrote you that she saw him in the city under suspicious circumstances?" "Twice," pronounced the spinster gossip with zest, as though rolling an appetizing morsel under her tongue. 'TT1! elf- f ti mrtnUio ii rrn dir nneifit'Ol v saw him going into a notorious gam bling place. A month later he was coming out of a common saloon." "Dear! dear! what hidden, wicked ness of the world!" murmured Mrs. Hall. "What you say tallies with the visits of Mr. Winters to the city. The firm he is with here as a bookkeeper sends him there regularly once a month. What would his wife say to all this? X won't tell her, for it would break her heart." But Mrs. Hall did tell Mrs. Win ters. She was a shallow, frivolous piece of femininity, slipshod about her housekeeping and a virago and a scold on occasions, as likewise idle, ignorant and a gossip. She did not like Mrs. Winters any too well, either, for the latter was all that she was not and the vivid contrast nettled her. As to her husband, she made him a poor wife. She was always parading her rich relatives before him and nagging him to provide for her more liberally than he could .afford. Unconsciously she was making herself a sort of terror to him and driving him to involve himself deeply to cater to her extrav agant notions. It was the next day that she called upon pretty, peaceful, happy Mrs. Win ters. By degrees she drew nearer and She Was Horrified as Them. She Scanned nearer to the climax of revelations, like a wily cat pouncing upon a poor, unsuspecting canary bird. "I don't want to distress you, dear," she said in her smooth, sinuous way, "but Mr. Winters is on his regular trip to the city?" "Why, yes. You are not bringing me any bad news, are you?" fluttered Mabel apprehensively. "Oh, nothing new, just general," replied Mrs. Hall and then she repeated what her associate scandal monger had imparted to her. Arnold visit a gambling house ! Arnold go into a saloon !" gasped Mabel. "Oh, Mrs. Hall, that is a vile slander !" "I hope so, for your sake, dear," purred Mrs. Hall speciously, "but I got the information from a very reliable source." "I'll not believe it!" cried Mabel. "Why, Arnold does not know the taste of liquor, nor ever knew one card from another, Oh, if it were true!" "Do as I do," advised Mrs. Hall practically. "I keep Gordon, ray husband, tightly under my thumb. When he goes to the city to make his weekly returns to the house of his trips, I make sure he isn't gallivanting about the country somewhere else." "I trust you will not repeat your information," spoke Mabel with dignity, but there was an aching sense of sorrow and dread at her heart. She wept and fretted. A score of times the sinister impulse was impart ed to her reason to watch her husband, j to have others watch him. Then she i abandoned the suggestion as utterly, unworthy of a true and loving wife. When ho returned home the next day she had locked her secret closely within her soul and was kinder and more caressing than ever. She was glad as the days wore on that she had not repeated the story Mrs. Hall had revealed to her to Arnold. Then, the very day he again went to the city Mabel made a jliscovery that utterly crushed her and gave

if

glaring color to the insinuations of Mrs. Hall. For chancing to mend a coat he had worn, some papers fell out She was bonified as she scanned them. One

was a receipted bill for a wine supper nearly fifty dollars. And there was a memorandum "I. O. IF.," card game, seventy-five dollars." She was so worried that she slept none at all that night. She was tormented with haunting mental pfctures of rioting, revelry and extravagance in the city. She recalled that Arnold had allowed several household bills to become overdue, which was not his usual wont. She could scarcely resist the impulse to go to the city and find him. Mr. Hall passed her on the street next morning. He looked pale and worried. "Do you expect Mr. Winters home today?" he inquired. "Yes," replied Mabel, "he will be here by evening." "Please tell him I wish to see him particularly, will you?" pressed Mr. Hall, very anxiously, Mabel thought. She did not allow her husband to detect any hint of the suffering she was enduring when he returned. Arnold was in fine spirits. He seemed to be secretly pleased at something he did not tell her about. She repeated the message Mr. Hall had left. "Oh, yes," spoke Arnold, "I must see him, indeed. I will be back in an hour, dear." He sauntered down the gravel path leading from the house to the street and Mabel stood alone debating with an irresistible impulse. It was to follow him. This she did. "It is unwomanly, but I can't help it!" she whispered desperately to herself. "There is some mystery about his going to see Mr. Hall. I am going to find out what it is." Mabel was surer than ever that she was on the right track as she followed her unsuspecting husband at a distance. He passed the Hall home, but did not enter it. Instead, he whistled loudly a peculiar tune, proceeded to where a vacant lot held some high shrubbery and waited there. In a few moments Mr. Hall appeared. The two were instantly engaged in a rapid colloquy, some papers passed between them. Mabel crept closer up to them. "And now, Hall," she heard her hus-. band say, "I've paid off those wretched gambling debts of yours and have cleared up the situation. I couldn't very well spare the money, but if you will keep away from those allurements in the future I shall feel well repaid, for I value you as an old friend." Enlightened, relieved, but fairly shamed, Mabel hurried back home. Never did she tell her husband of heu discoveries, only she loved him, trusted him more than ever. Two yars went by, a fortune had been left to Mrs. Hall by one of those wealthy relatives she had so often boasted of. She and her husband moved to another town. There came a period of pinching economy, almost distress to the Winters family after that. The firm for which Arnold worked went out of business. He was compelled to take a minor position. It was while affairs were at their worst that one evening they received an unexpected visit from Mr. Hall. He brought great news. "Winters," he said exuberantly, "my wife's uncle has left her i business ! that renuires brains to manage. I am looking for an expert accountant at five thousand dollars a year. Pack up and come, for you are the man I want." And then Mabel knew the wayward, but true-hearted friend of her husband had not forgotten the kindly, deed of the past. Curious Siberian Jewel Box. A curious jewel box made of fossil ivory by the natives of Siberia is on exhibition at the Museum of Natural History in New York. The sides and top are composed of flat pieces of ivory and are carefully fitted together, the corners being dovetailed. They have carved in them scenes of the northland, the front side representing a hunter returning from the chase riding a reindeer. The box is made from the tusks'bf mammoths that have been buried for ages beneath the ice in Siberia, says the Christian Herald. Some of these tusks weigh from 200 to 300 pounds. Elephants' tusks furnished the ivory for the Jews. Solomon made his throne of it. Odd Wedding Custom. An odd wedding custom prevails among the Santals, a tribe in India, by which, after enn agreement has been reached between the parents, who usually do the bargaining, the youth's friends, after a short interval, visit the girl and give her a piece of cloth as a sign of betrothal. The money is then paid. This is called "the binding down of the thatch" and a date for the wedding is fixed. The next step is for each party to tie a knot in a string for each day that is to intervene before the wedding day. Then the parties separate ; day by day a knot is untied, and when the end of the string is reached the renl knot is tied that i makes the couple one. Very Obliging.

"It's hard lines for you to be brought down like this, after what you've been accustomed to," said a sympathetic neighbor. "I don't doubt you feel very miserable, Mrs. Jones." "No, I don't," the charwoman stoutly denied. "I'm happier here by a long way than I used to be in the old place.

234 stock model Saxon " Sixes " travel 70,200 miles July 18 and set grand average of 25.9 miles per gal. of gas

To give a national demonstration of the remarkable gasoline economy of Saxon "Six", 234 Saxon dealers joined in a 300 mile drive July 18. A grand average of 25.9 miles per gallon of gasoline was registered for the 70,200 miles of travel. Consider that this run took place in 234 different parts of the country, under 234 different sets of conditions, over 234 different kinds of roads. Consider that these 234 cars were stock model Saxon " Sixes ", not " tuned up " special cars, not cars with "doped" gasoline.

25.9 Miles Per Gal. of Gas

That proves that this 25.9 miles per gallon of gasoline is the ordinary, the average performance of 234 Saxon "Sixes" taken right out of stock. And it proves as nothing else would prove, the gasoline economy your Saxon "Six" will give you. No other car in its class can match this record. Furthermore, these 234 Saxon "Sixes" averaged 175 miles per quart of oil. And not a single instance of mechanical trouble occurred throughout the entire 70,200 miles. There is the proof that Saxon " Six" is your kind of a car. Price f. o. b. Detroit, $935.
