while still opening their doors to her for
her husbands sake; for, just as cordially
as they disapproved his wife, everybody
liked the doctor, perhaps partly in I'M
conscious effort to atone for the neglect
they accorded him in their ailments.
For the old school of medicine had as
firm a hold upon popular prejudice as
orthodoxy in religion. They liked their
physical as well as spiritual healing In
doses large and strong. DR.. Rogers was
homeopath, with quite radical theo-
ries as to high dilution; and IL this were
not enough, lie looked moreover young
and, inferentially, inexperienced. 1t Is
an unwritten law that the successful
physician must never appear young.
Donald Bartels was not given to con-
hdences regarding his anti-nuptial
amours, which tradition said had been
many, not alone from sense OF honor
toward those who had accorded him
favor, but that, in his utter absorption
in the one great passion OF his life, all
that came before 1t seemed sunk into
utter nothingness. In prudent i'm
pulse to forestall the gossips, however,
he had told his wife all OF the story OF
his friendship with Mrs. Rogers. 1t was
a bald little tale, only worth the telling
because Of the mountain Of talk that
had been built up from the mole hill OF
fact. The Rogerses had simply made
him welcome to their house in the unai-
fected hospitality they extended to all
mankind. In his bachelor loneliness he

against the door with an air OF scornful
WEAKNESS of the subject. "Why must
she have some man beside her husband
forever dangling after her?"
"For the same reason that Alcibiades
cut the dogs tails off, perhaps-to give
people something to talk about" un-
wonted irritation in his voice. "Your
allegation is little incorporate all the
same, my dear. The men whom you
charge with dangling after Mrs Rogers
are her husbands friends, who are more
particularly dangling after him, il you
want to use that word. They are jolly,
hospitabe people, who entertain delight
fully, in a free and easy way, and their
house is naturally popular with all the
BOYS; and that is the sum and substance
of Mrs. Rogers crimes. Other women,

CHAPTER II.

Let no man delude himself with the
thought that controlling passion may
ever purge from a woman's heart all
memory Of his offenses against her.
Forgive she may in exceeding tender
ness, but never will she forget. In all
that pertains to the man she loves, the
passing years will but give her time to
remember.
That Mrs. Rogers should have been
talked about, in the full meaning OF
that pregnant phrase, would have suill-
GENTLY damned her in the eyes of Mrs.
Bartels, who had been educated in most
wholesome awe of Mrs. Grundy. To
her the voice OF the people was as the
voice Of God indeed. But that this un-
considerable little coquette should
have drawn Donald Bartels with
her into the maelstrom of vulgar gossip
was to the wife an offense never to be
condoned.
Nowhere does the scandal monger so
flourish, and nowhere is he so merciless
in his COMBINATIONS, as in the frontier
communities, where the untrammeled
condition of society in It's early day has
served up so much highly spiced scandal
as to have developed morbid insatiate
appetite for that sort of pabulum. In
sensible, as he listens, 1.-The purest minded
grows to regard his neighbor with skepa
tical eyes, feeling that to give to any
body the benefit of doubt Is the part
of charity rather than sound sense. Peo-
pie will have something to talk about,
nor, so long as they are amused, are
they disposed to trouble themselves with
any too painstaking discrimination be-
tween facts and fiction. Cui bono? A
lie may be but the truth disguised, and
surely people would be driven to sore
extremity for talk if every black imp OF
scandal must be stripped Of its domino
of inQenius fabrication. And thus with

last October, which he did only by the

he was taken to his bed, from which he
never again arose.
| Col. bennett was remarkable man,
and those who did not know him well,
could not estimate him at his true worth.
AS modest, sensitive and tender as a
woman, in fidelity to principle and his
convictions of duty, he was as unswerv.
ing and brave as Cato himself. Col.
bennett came to the South from his ma
tive State before the late war and settled
in Louisiana, and from that time the
South had no more loyal son. Public
spirited, patriotic and nnselfish, he was
ever ready to take the lead in advancing
every worthy cause in his adopted State,
as he was in Mississippi after his removal
here. He was one of the few men of
every impulse. and his whole influence
was ON the size of right. If n question
had right aud wrong side, no one
had to inquire on which side Col. Dem
granted that he was positively and az.
gresSvely on the side of right. He was
the special aud lifelong friend of the ag
ricultnral classes, and spent the best
advancing their interests. 1t goes without
the saying that he was an earnest tenn

Col. bennett died most triumphant
Christian death. He was buried from
the Presbyterian church Monday after
noon, and Rev. J. H. Gamhr II, who was
u warm personal friend, and whom he Ina
specially requested to preach his funeral
when he realized that the end was APP
preaching, paid true and feeling tribute
to his memory.
In his death our community loses one OF
it's nobleSt and most useful citizens, whose
place it " i'll be hard to fill.
To his daughters anil grand daughters,
who teuderly and patiently nnrsed him
