you first and best, and deepest of all
earthly gifts to me ~
How good-how good God has
been to send me back to you" wept
Laurette. winding her arms about him
she had so mistrusted. Is | didn't think
it possible yon would forgive and take
me home; / thought you would be
stern and hard, as good men often are
to the weak and wicked"
" Why did you go, dearest?" whis p
cred Beranger, fondly.
''I'm not going to-yes, I'll never con-
ceal any trouble from YOU again" said
the young wife, determinately; "and
this was what turned me wild altogeth-
er. Old Martha never liked my COM
ing here, and always was telling me
what changed times you had-how
none of your friends would come to the
house because they weren't pleased
with your choice, and how unhappy
you seemed to be; and at last she told
me there was young lady you had
been engaged to, good, pious, energet-
gregation would have been delighted
with-Miss Nanson, you know-and,
nh me, when | compared my useless
self to her, and remembered how my
love must have made you take me out
of pity, I couldn't-couldnt stay to be
a burden"
"Hush, my beloved wife; don't cry
on this happy, white night of our lives
That was all false, and Martha shall
find place elsewhere. Now, tell us
about this little fellow"
They both pored over the soft waxen
face of the sleeping infant, JOY in the
mothers and in the fathers eyes.
"He came three weeks ago" muir
INJURED Laurette, blushing happily, "and
it was to give him to you | lived and
worked so hard He kept me from de-
spair and wrong many a dark day, and
so, rs soon as | could travel, we came. "
"Our little boy" breathed the pastor,
softly kissing him, aud then, with ten
der, but most grieving reproach, he
cried: ''Oh, how could you leave me,
and battle through it alone-and |
never knew
So that was how Laurette came back
to Beranger Haslem.

4 CObbler-M

Meadye, Pa.) Cor. Cleveland Herald.
Every one here knew Addison Row
land, and there are few of our middle
aged citizens who do not remember
stealing chewing wax from his old
cobbler's bench when they were boys.
For the last eighteen years this old
man has pegged away, patched and
soled the boots and shoes of hundreds
of people in the dingy old shop III
Plum alley, between Door and Archer
streets, where this morning at few
minutes before I o'clock he passed
quietly away to that land where work
is not known.
Yesterday he died. Slowed away in
the boxes and rubbish of his room
were found old leather pocketbooks
filled with bank-notes in the amount
of $3.50, while in old tin cans,
leather bags that had been
patched and repatched again lit
tie tin and wooden boxes, jars and
crooks, was slowed away n pile of
silver and small change more than Il
man could lift Among the many
things we noticed five old gold watches,
twenty-four silver watches of every
conceivable pattern from the old bulls
eye" of our grandfathers to the modern
watch of to-day eight or ten revolvers,
half score of old army muskets, shot
guns. etc, a lot of old books, and
many other articles supposed to have
been pawned by some unfortunate
owner and never redeemed. Among
the mass Of silver and gold coin were
1913 one dollar pieces, thirty-two two
and-a-half pieces, four twenty dollar,
seven ten dollar, ten five dollar, and
ten foreign coins, while of silver dimes,
niakels and pennies there were enough
to nearly ill bushel basket.
All this mysterious mass of wealth
had been boarded up for years and ac-
cumulated by the practice of the ut
most economy. BY denying himself
even the necessities of life, he had sue
ceeded in saving from $1,000 to $4,000,
in little bits, and for what? Only last
evening, while aneighbor, Mr.. William
Forker, was watching with him, he
told him not to build up much of
fire, but to be saving of the wood,
Thus his misery instincts would induce
him to do without the least comfort in
life in order to save penny. Mr..
Rowland was in his 18th year, and
came TO this city from Bucks county,
this state, in 1924. Some years ago Il
a nephew visited MIN here, but it is not
known where his relatives reside, or
whether he has any living.

4 kentucky Heroine of Early Days.

\ we'll authenticated incident Of
Nelson county, Kentucky, illustrates the
character of the early emigrants from
old Virginia. In 1857 the cabin Of one

by seven marauding SayageS The
barking Of the faithful dog gave notice
to the occupants that somebody was
coming Merrill opened the door TO
see what was the matter, when he fell
severely wounded, being shot through
the shoulder and lower limbs He
called upon his wife to shut the door,
but it was speedily demolished by the
tomahawks of four Indians. Mrs.
Merrill, being woman of great cour-
age and of herculeau strength, seized
nh axe and dispatched all of them MS
they entered. Two mounted upon the
cabin roof and were entering by way of
the chimney, Quick as thought Mrs.
NJ. ripped open her only feather bed
and emptied its contents upon the fire.
The blaze and smoke Of the burning
feathers So suhocated the invaders
that they fell to the hearth, where she
diSpatched them With the axe. Only
one escaped. and he was severely
wounded by q blow from the hcreines
deadly weapon.

The Suffrage Question in Missouri.

ST.. LOUIS, Mo-, February 21.-Anoth-
er delegation of ladies, representing the
National Woman's Suffrage association,
visited Jefferson City yesterday, and
last night addressed the house and
senate committees on constitutional
amendments. They did not ask for
full suffrage for women, but they made
strong arguments and urgent appeals
for the extension of the ballot to wo-
men on all school questions. General
John b. Henderson, who was with the
ladies, also made strong appeals in
their favor, and made various suggest
ions to the legislators outside of the
suffrage question.

KEEPING IoE WITHOUT IoE
HoUsEs.-Ice has passed from the
list of Injuries to that of the necessi-
ties Of farm life. Whoever lives where
ice is formed, and 80 near to body of
water that the hauling will not be too
costly should have an ice house. Ice
keeps best in large masses, add 10
building it will be found that house
to hold enough for Two years will cost
but little more than one for single
years stock. Occasionally as last
winter, the ice crop fails over the
greater part Of the country. A mild
winter will cause no anxiety to one
who has supply of ice left over. If
one has straw in plenty, it may be
worth while to stack up lot, though
it can hardly be expected to last all
summer. The ice stack is especially
useful when the ice house is not large
enough to hold full supply if the
ice is freely used. An ice stack is to
be drawn upon during the early part
Of summer, and will allow the store in
the house to be long time undistur-
bed. If the stack can be made in
shady place, all the better; select q
spot where the water will drain off.
lay down tier of rails foot or so
apart; on these put layer of brush,
straw to the thickness Of . foot. IF
possible set a strong pole in the centre.
Now stack up the ice as in an ice
house, taking care that the mass does
not incline to one side. The covering
for the sides may be straw, salt hay,
or even leaves, but the latter will need
to be held 10 place by boards. A foot
IN thickness of protecting material
will do, but thicker will be better; old
boards, with braces to press them
against straw, etc, may be used if
needed; the stack is to be finished by a
roof Of straw, put on with pins and
ropes, as il Flashing of hay stack.
On grain farms, where straw is abund-
ant, the mass Of ice may be covered
with great thickness Of straw, by
building stack of it over the ice.
In using from such stack the ice
should be taken off on all sides rsgu-
larry, and care taken to properly re-
place the covering. The larger such
stack the better cube IL feet on
each side.
