R. C composed of Dr. Mary Jackson, Rev. F. M. Elliott,'. Rev. George Streeter, Jessie Wolf and H. E.

It is expected that next Decoration day will be celebrated In a manner tbat will outrival anything that has been held In this city so far. The interest that has been taken In the G. A. R. work and that of the auxiliary organization which Is affiliated with It Is an Indication of the interest which will be taken in the coming holiday. The ladles of the W. R. C. prepares statement for the press which is printed herewith in part: Memorial Day. "Hats off to the soldiers on Memorial day!" Carry high the stars and stripes they lcve so dearly. That God's sunlight may glorify them. " Thanks to them, that the smallest child may see them clearly and add to his youthful cheer to the cry that greets them as they pass. Hats off to the battle flags as they are borne silently to the bivouac of the dead. Off with your hats as the flags goes by and let the heart have its say! You're man enough for a tear In your eye that you will not wipe "away. And when the lints of soldiers have faded in the distance and the battle flags have been borne put of vision do hot forget the duty you owe to our soldiers. The honor, the very existence of the nation depends on their memory being held in grateful rememberance. 'Ere long there will be no old veterans left alone to decorate them. Honor the soldiers of '93 who resented the insult to our country and let us each year continue this beautiful ceremony of strewing flowers over the graves of the silent army of the nation's heroes. Every God-fearing mother in all this land, who, at her own home and her own heartstone whistles into the minds of her boys and her girls the great principals of right and wrong; who teaches her boys to bo clean, manly men, and her girls to be pure virtuous women, who teaches them both to love their country and its flag and to emulate the virtues of its heroes living and dead. Every such God-fearing mother is a recruiting officer for the Grand- Army that shall perpetuate the republic. fj THE SUPERIOR COURT 3160. Thos. Rickets vs. Andrew J. Fulton and wife.

A Sentimental Legacy. By Martha Cobb Sariford. Copyrighted. 100$, by Associated Literary Press.

It was impossible to convince Marion Earle she was only nineteen and very pretty that the course of true love never does run smooth. Indeed, she believed that there was danger of its running too smoothly. Ilad she not been engaged one whole month to Gregory Holbrook without the suggestion of even of a cloud on the horizon of their happiness? "You don't find It monotonous, do you, Gregory, just loving me this way?"1 she asked him unexpectedly one evening. . "Monotonous!" he echoed, caressing the brown head on his shoulder. "1 should say not! I hope we'll go on loving each' other this way forever." "But I dou't," piped up Marion, suddenly sitting bolt uprigbL Gregory could not believe bis ears. "You don't want me to go on loving you this way, sweetheart?" he gasped. "Oh, yes. of course, with interims, dear." sighed Marion. "But couldn't you manage to misunderstand me sometimes?" . "Well, I certainly do not understand you now," replied Gregory. "Oh. that's an entirely different thing," Marion explained. Gregory shook his head in perplexity. "It's one thing not to undtand a person at all." explained Marion pa- j tiently, "and another thing to misunderstand him to disagree with him and to quarrel." "You don't want me to quarrel with you, dearest?" Gregory asked in amazement Marlon nodded her head. "Um-bum." she admitted. "It's such fun to make up." As Gregory burst out laughing a spark of something very like real an ger kindled in Marion's brown eyes. "You're making fun cf me," she challenged. "Of course I am, you foolish little girl," chuckled Gregory, gathering her into his arms In a mighty hug and smothering all her protests. "Well, that was a failure' emphasized Marion as soon as she could get her breath. "The hug?" asked Gregory seriously. "No, of course not," asserted Marion before she could catch back the words. "I meant the quarrel. Just the same, Gregory, I shall think up some way to make our courtship exciting yet." In spite of this warning Ilolbrook was completely surprised when he re ceived within forty-eight hours the following note from Marion: "Dear Gregory I've thought of some thing. Aren't you glad? The inspiration came to me while reading the let ters of the Brownings. Just Imagine our being engaged a whole month without any chance of writing each other love letters' Why, we might have gone on and been married without having a single billet-doux to tie up in ribbon and put away in an old trunk for our grandchildren. So I'm going away You'll find my address below. No, you can't see me off, but be sure to have a Jong letter to meet me. Oh, isn't It going to be fun? Goodby, dear est Your devoted MARION. "P. S. This will be the first letter In your collection, so be sure to save it" Ilolbrook shoved aside a pile of un opened mail and proceeded to write Marion exactly what he thought of her a strange medley of mild reproach and extravagant endearment This he sent off "special" and then turned listlessly to his business correspondence. But as his mind wandered every now and then to the thought of getting a big, bulging envelope from Marion the next morning he became more reconciled to the situation in fact quite feverish with anticipation. Marion was right after all. It was exciting, and absence certainly did make the heart grow fonder. The next morning Ilolbrook found his mall, as usual, assorted in classified piles on his desk. Taking up the batch marked "Personal," he began to run it over eagerly. He stopped suddenly as a colored postal card popped unexpectedly into sight He held it up closer in order to decipher the- almost illegibly flnejwritiner "Dearest boy," he made out "it is lovely here, although you may not think so from this P. C. You were a perfect dear to have that long letter waiting here for me. Isn't the scheme working out beautifully? No time for more now. Write as soon as you get this. M." For a few wrathful moments Ilolbrook sat chewing viciously on the end of his penholder.- Suddenly, with the manner of one who has made up his mind, he threw it down and called his stenographer. "My dear Miss Earle," he dictated, "thinking you may find it more convenient in our future correspondence to have on hand some of my self addressed business envelopes. I am having a dozen of them sent to you under separate cover. More will be forwarded as soon as the supply is exhausted. "You failed to state in your recent communication how long you think it will take for your scheme to materialize, riease do not fall to notify me on this point at your earliest convenience. Respectfully yours," etc. Sooner than Gregory had deemed it possible the post brought back to him one of his "half addressed" envelopes. He opened it with mingled emotion of curiosity and apprehension. "My dear Mr. Holbrook," he read, and looked very sober as he did so,

"you. see I have taken your hint or. rather, am obeying your orders. I regret that the postal card offended you. It was at the time my gnly means of communication. "May I request however, that in our future correspondence' you favoi me with written rather than dictated letters? Undoubtedly you were driven to this expedient by the press of business. "As to the length of time it will probably take for the fruition of my scheme, I am sorry to say that from the way things are progressing at present it is impossible to predict any definite date. "Sincerely yours (by which I mean I'm not joking). MARION EARLE." "Well, bless her fiery little heart!", exclaimed Holbrook mentally. "This will never do at alL She shall have all the love letters she wants to tie up In ribbons." And he started to suit the action to the words. He had proceeded no further than "Dear in m heart," however, when a telegram was handed him. "Coming home." he read, with amazement "Need not write.1 Meet me. 4:30 train. MARION." nolbrook signed for the message with an exuberant flourish and tore, his affectionate salutation into undecipherable fragments. When, later in the afternoon, Gregory was seated before a hearth fire with Marion's curly brown head on his shoulder, as of old, he asked with mock solemnity: "You don't find It monotonous, do you, Marlon, loving me this way?" For answer Marion, drew from some mysterious hiding place two very crumbled letters and, holding them up, look

ed at her fiance sternly. "Isn't that a romantic collection to hand down to one's grandchildren?" she asked him accusingly. "Just two letters, and one a typewritten call down!" "As romantic as mine, anyway," re taliated Gregory, displaying a picture postal card, a self addressed envelope and a telegram. "The postal card made you mad. didn't it. dearest boy?" teased MarionGregory refused to commit himself. "I knew It would.Loontjnned Miirion

That's wny I sent it" Gregory tore the card in two and threw it with all the rest of their correspondence, into the fire. "Oh. Gregory!" exclaimed Marion tearfully as she darted toward the res cue of her "love letters." " ' But Gregory restrained her forcibly and together they watched their senti mental legacy blaze up, flicker and disappear. When Gregory looked down Into Marion's face, wonderfully beautiful in the firelight he was surprised to see her smtting-Indeed, almost laughing. "Isn't It all lovely?" she asked him roguishly. "What's lovely?" asked her big, puzzled lover. "I'm afraid I don't understand." "Why," Marion made clear to him. "we've really quarreled, and now comes the fun of making up, you old stupid." , Luxury. . I know-it is more, agreeable to walk upon carpets than to lie upon dungeon floors; I know it is pleasant to have all the comforts and luxuries of civilization, but he who cares only for these things is worth no more than a butterfly, contented and thoughtless upon a morning flower; and who ever thought cf rearing "a tombstone to a last summer's, butterfly?
