Gerald scanned her little figure, and
let his eyes dwell perhaps too intently
for courtesy on her clean cut, symmetrio
face.

'There will be no need Of them,

husband with certain tartness Of tone.

She turned toward Gerald now with her

Bond gave light, rippling laugh. "On
what, prayT' she asked. "You look at
Brenda while you reply in that unsatis-
factory way. Is she at all concerned
with your future plansg'
Gerald said nothing, while Brenda
slowly crimsoned. A little later Louis
was seized with what he called one Of
his tired feelings, and begged Gerald to
excuse him. His wife accompanied him
out Of the room. Gerald was not sorry
to be left alone with Brenda.
"Your brother looks quite i'll" he said.
"Do you think soY she answered. Her
eyes filed with tears the next instant
"Oh, Gerald, am dreadfully worried
about himT she went on.
"You don't like the woman he has
married" said Gerald.
"No-I DON'T" and then sign Of her
old kaughtiness revealed itself. "You
know very well that don't" she pro-
ceeded. "You ought to know"

with a little upward motion of one hand
"Yes, why not2 You might have pre-
vented the marriage, too, II you had

Gerald rose. "Ah, Brenda" he said,
'you are at your unlind tricks again"
Brenda bit her lip. you've never
given me credit for having decent man
ners," came her piqued words. You're
always fancying I'm the same little
hoyden who used to gambol about with
you at Shadyshore."
"Oh, no." said Gerald. "You were
natural then"
Brenda's blue eyes flashed. 'Tm al
ways natural" she said. "Do You mean
that you think me hypocrite?
And then came one Of their old hot lit
tie quarrels. Gerald said things which
he regretted, and Brenda said things
which kept her remorsefully and tear
fully awake all that night After he
had departed from Madison avenue,
Gerald told himself that he would join
with the physicians in forcing his mother
to spend the entire summer at the White
Sulphur Springs
Mrs. Ravelow, whose digestion was in
bad straits, would have given her finger
to spend the summer with her son in
Westchester county, notwithstanding
headaches and like bodily ills. The
idea of having Gerald marry Brenda
was dear one, and his trip to Europe
had been taken at the very bayonet
point of her maternal disrelish. But
now that Gerald leagued himself with
medical counsel there was no use in
fighting his decision.

Brenda felt very lonely and guilty
after leaving town with Louis and his
wife. A certain dim suspicion had crept
into her mind, and, although there were
times when she told herself that she
hideously wronged her sister-in-law, 1t
still occurred that special moments Of
anxiety and alarm would work their
darker spells. Louis frightened little
at first, and then grew more languid
and nerveless. Once she said to him:
"Why don't you have a talk with DR..
Southgate, Louis? He is only a country
doctor, it is true, but he knows your
constitution well. having attended you
from childhood"

Brenda believed she saw q slight flush
steal into Natalie's cheek as her husband
thus replied. But in an instant after
ward the young wife said In her gentlest
and most solicitous way:
"Ah, Louis, that can only be imagina-

he learned from his mother that rumors
had reached her Of how Louis Bond had
placed himself In the hands, % II were,
Of three or four SpiritualiStic mediums,
and had become . confirmed dsvotee Of
their theories. Then; soon afterward,
another letter from Mrs. RaveIow told

had wept plenteous and most pathetic
tears over the infatuation Of Louis. "It

Imitation Always A Cheat.
Appleton Evening Crescent. Aug. 9Th.

Appleton Evening Crescent Aug. 9Th.
And is 50 acknowledged the world
over. You can always take it for
granted that when q manufacturing
| firm attempts to initiate the goods of
reputable and honest firms who have
won high regulations for the quality
and honesty of the goods they manu-
facture, they expect to,sell their goods
upon the reputation and character of
the firms whose goods they are initial
ing, and not upon the quality of the
goods they manufacture. limitations
are always cheats, never SO good as
the genuine. Manufacturers do not
try to initiate, ana they have to sell
them cheaper because they are cheap
~ and poorly made. Intelligent buy
ers will not buy them at any price, for
they know they are dear 1T any price.
But to the man who does not know the
difference between perfectly manu-
featured article, made just as good as
can be made, the offer OF 4 little lower
price Is always catching.
Dishonest men engaged in manufac
turing cheap limitations, and dishonest
men engaged III selling these cheap
limitations know this weakness of buy
erS who are not posted on the quality
OF goods, and whose only idea is some
thing cheap, are always trying to i'm
itate standard high grade goods and
selling them to these deluded people,
claiming they are just like i'll every
Respectable goods sold by the agent
of the genuine. We might mention Il
large number OF such limitations, if we

from the fact that this stove has acllley

man with a mechanical eye can com
pare this stove with any OF the cheap

OF its great superiority over all count

by reference to the report of the
CITY Clerk published elsewhere, it will
De seen that the expenditures Of the
city last year were one and one third
millions of dollars. OF this sum $3.50
9oi,D was provided for by general
taxation. In some of these items the
sums seem to be large For instance
the engineers department takes near
ly31 900; the street commissioner re-
CURED over $23 800 to keep up his bust
ness up; over ST 900 was eaten up bv
the bridges of the city, and we might
add right here that this bridge fund
has been one of the most consuming
flres OF this country for years past
PROBABLY no county in the state has
paid out 50 much money for bridges
and has SO few Of them and of such
cheap and inferior quality as Douglas
County and the city of Superior This
leak certainly ought to be stopped in
some way
The City Clerk estimates that it will
cost us 500, 800 to run our city govern
ment next wear. OF this amount 500
600, goes for water and light for the use
OF the ety. This tax forced upon the
people is an unmltigated outrage.

llberate robbery Stationery, printing
