WORDS OF COMFORT.
Mr.. Soper's Way Of Cheering Up his Wife

Mr.. Soper's wife has been very sick for
some weeks. but, although extremely re,
duced in body and mind, there is still
enough Of the true woman remaining in
her, which led her last Monday, in faint
whisper, to ask her husband, who had
entered the sick room with funeral cast
of features. what was the news.
We'll, answered Mr., oopcr, sitting
uneasily down on the extreme edge Of a
chair, and balancing his hat on his fingers
by the hrim, there amt nothing to speak
of n p'ticlcr, S'pose you heard Of Miss
Coles death she vas taken the same
time yon was.
Il should think, James, said Mrs. So
per, with feeble emphasis, that If you
couldn't find somethin' more cheerful to
say to your poor sick wife, you'd hold
your tongue.
'Ccrt'nly, said Mr. Soper meekly,
sonly news is so sc'ace. Lemme see, he
continued, looking thoughtfully into the
crown of his hat, q. if he had reserved
fund Of gossip therein; 'you heard bout
Mathy Carter's breakin' her leg.
A snappish nod of the head from the
invalid signified to Mr.. Sopcr that he WAS
on dangerous ground, but. after mo-
mcnt's reflection, he frightened visibly
as he said:
You orter ben to town meetin' a
Mondy. The towns voted to have \
new hearse, an was never so glad of
anthing in all my life.
James Edward Soper, whispered his
wife, with painful intensity, be you a
nat'ral born feol, or be VOW looking
forred to gcttn rid Of me-
As the latter view had never presented
itself to Mr. Soper in the light Of his
wife's inquiry, he looked very much sub
dued and scratched his head with an air
of painful abstraction as Mrs SoPer said
again with fearful voice:
'Oh, you en- go. If you can't spare a
few moments to set with me, an jes' Civ
me some little interestin' news-I don't
want you to stay ag'in your inclination,
she continued with the sigh Of a martyr.
Mr.. Soper hastily expressed his will
ingness to remain and desire to please,
so after brief interval Of thought be
continued rsfectively:

the widder Stacy's las night to see T ]

enthusiastically, il she amt harnsum

An ominous light appeared in Mrs. So
per's sunken eyes, and if her husband
had been observing closely he would
have seen restless motion of the hands,
indicative of an apparent desire to make
personal attack upon some one or some
thing, but he saw nothing, and continued
She's jest about the right size, an her

but as the car swung around the corner
to 60 up Bost street. be bent over her
with pleased smiled and quiried beg
