Decidedly Platonic Partnerships.

1t may be interesting to know that
very platonic partnerships are formed
among the patrons Of boarding houses
which do not furnish meals. A clerk
on small salary will enter into the
most commonplace business partner
ship with fair typewriter, who hap
pens also to be patron OF the estab-
lishment They frequent restaurants
together for dinner, and have every
thing nice and in the season. They
order one soup, one portion of fish,
one entree, an extra dessert, and di-
vide the expense. Some of these part
nerships have not been successful of
late. The male member has preferred
roast beef and the fair creature would
have chicken, and this difference in
taste has dissolved some of the part
nerships- The men partnerships seem
to get along better than a man and
woman partnership, although it is not
SO pleasant It will be observed that
the partnership between the man and
woman is Of such business-like char
acter that the moment one objects to
one dish that the other likes there is
q complete severance of the agree
ment, but there is no i'll feeling be-
tween them. N. 7. Sun.

lamp ana took ont the letter. Henri
eta sat motionless as before. Then
for awhile there was no sound but the
ticking OF the clock and the rustling of
the paper as Mr.. Cadwallader turned
the pages.
A whistle from her husband caused
Henrietta to start. He stood up and
came toward her. No, she would not
speak to him.
my DEAR" he said, in a dry tone, II
think that never before during the
eight years OF our marriage have l had
occasion to remind you that you had a
predecessor Though there is nothing
to regret in this fact. it is, l think,
deeply to be deplored that sister OF
my first wife still survives. Will you
kindly glance over this page of letter
received from Cynthia this afternoon
which l have read for the first time
this moment?''
Henrietta thought to herself: II
shall pay no attention to him." Then
she took up the letter. Mr.. Cadwal-
lader had opened it so that the passage
about the little sole leather trunk was
uppermost. Henrietta read:
While looking over some sacred mementoes
which mao long been cherished there l found
this note from dear Helen to you which ]
thought you ought to have. we'll remember
the day when she and Annie Brown went down
TO snort H'lls. 1t was the very day old Mr..
Widgeon had his stroke Of apoplexy, coming SO
sadly sudden as it did. The two girls were
there at the time, and Helen returned alone
shortly after, and l remember hearing her Tell
how Mrs. Widyeon carried on
why, Hiram, then this note was
FROM
Eyes, this is the note Helen wrote
me at the time, though l don't remem-
Der a word about it. It must have
dropped out of Cynthia's letter.
And to think of the base suspicious
l harbored! Hiram, l can never for
give Cynthia Olds for this. l believe
she did it on purpose. l can't tell you
how / suffered since found that letter
on your table,
Don't wrong poor Cynthia, my
dear. I'm sure you must have been
very much upset to apply such epithets
to your husband as bigam-''
Hush, hush!'' she said, soothingly,
laying her hand on his lips. ''Oh.
Hiram, forgive me! If l were sure
that nobody was looking, 3D.

What important communication, re-

iIe opened the letter, and ran rapid

written sheets: ''Prevented from
