TOUCHES OF LlFE-A few nights since tht
passengers 10 crowded street car were start
led by the soft cooing OF couple in one cor
ner. A blue veil hid the lady's face, aud tbs
gentleman's hand was playing nervously with
its folds.
"You love me. then ?' they heard MIN say.
The reply was in tone less loud, but lis &C
cent was as tender as heart could wish.
II have loved you so long," the swain Goa
tinued, land I have been afraid to indulge the
sweet hopes that are now resolving themselves
into certainty"
WAS you afraid of pa p
mo, but of you
"Why should you be afraid of me p
because it seemed 80 impossible that YOU
should love me.
"Wby ?"
''pm homely my tace is not handsome |
have nothing that attracts the love OF woman. "
But you are rich, - the lady archly reptile l..
"Passipgly 30; but not very.'
The conversation bad by this time growo
absorbingly interesting, and every ear was lis.
tenipg in the crowded car.
Would you marry me If [ was poor ?"
How can you ask-am l mercenary?
'No-but so many are"
There was a momentary silence, and then
the whispered conversation was resumed with
a mutual confession. In plain words, both
acknowledged resemblance to Jobs turkey
neither had cent. They would commence
their married life very much as they begun the
World-with nothing. The mutual confession
was evidently damper on their enthusiasm.
They we're silent. The lady cast iurtive glaDces
at the swain, and at last murmured audibly:
Pm too young to marry"
The tone was disappointed. 1t had an
hesitatiDg accent about it that meant more
than the language. But the answer came
heartily-bluff, aud to the point
so am l."
We've both been mistaken.
And so they had. They left the car quiet
ly. The question of marriage was thoroughly
understood. There was to be no wedding

The Iron Interest.

was crowded out last week That
wonderful fnancicr, who can manage
his own business and that Of the public,
with such admirable tact and honesty,
the editor of the Herald, makes a silly
attempt to caricature the resolutions
passed by the meeting. This must be
highly gratifying TO the meeting, and
especially to the members OF the com
mittee who reported the resolutions.
Mr.. Isaac Brown, Democrat, of oul
town, was on that committee.
We are gratifed to know that The
people of this county properly appre
ciate a paper printed in Chicago, ant
edited by an Iowa carpet bagger, who
does not pay dollar of tax, owns nc
property here, and has no interest il
the welfare of our county-a paper
that in its weak way, never fails tc
strike at the material interests of oul
county and district.

not sense enough to transact the bust

this place, on the Hamden road, After
the ceremony Mr. Brine walked to
his home in Macarthur, still wearing
the wet, frozen clothes in which he had
performed the baptismal ceremony
The old gentleman was about bright
