Probably it was this continual run Of
misfortune that at last broke down his

seemed to improve. He was for a

he got well enough TO go 10 the house
of a friend.
His suicide was a surprise. He
seemed almost his old self when he

shot himself an hour or so later. 1t is

Two Letters That snow the Real Pow

The following ext acts from the let
ters Of Daniel Webster and his brother
Ezekiel will indicate how the young
men had 10 struggle with poverty
through their college days. The reader
will remember that the home farm was
mortgaged to pay Daniels expenses
through college. and when Il was pro
posed to give Ezekiel similar advan-
tages the father and mother held 3
council The farm is already mort
gagged" said the old gentleman, and
If we send Ezekiel to college it viii take
all we have; but the boys think they
can take care of u.s."
1t did not take the strong hearted,
s~agacious woma long to decide the
matter. we can trust the boys. she
aid.
So the matter was settled Daniel
went back To Hanover, while Ezekiel
went, bundle in hand. TO Doctor
Woods and began the study of Latin,
his expenses being but a dollar a week.
In November. 1902. Daniel was at
home in Salisbury. while Ezekiel was
struggling with poverty at Hanover.
Funds were getting low in the Webster
homestead Daniel writes under date
Of Nov. 4.
Nov, Zeke. you viii not read half
a sentence, no, not N syllable, before
you have thoroughly searched this sheet
for scrip; but my word for H. you'll
find no scrip here. We held a sanhe-
drin this morning on the subject Of
cash. Could not hit upon any way to
get you any. Just before we went
away to hang ourselves through disap-
pointment it came into our heads that
next week might do.
The truth is father had an execu-
ton against Hubbard, of North Ches-
Ter, Tor about 500. The money was
collecting and just ready TO drop into
the hands of the creditors. when Hub
bard suddenly died. This. you see,
st4es the execution till the long process

them, II they be all.
Eve are all here Just in the old way,
always behind and lacking. Boys dig

girls washing without wood"
Ezekiel writes TO Daniel at about the
same time, the two letter. probably
crossing each other.
'"These cold. frosty mornings very
sensibly inform me that ] want a warm

A Graceful Table Decoration.

A woman who gave charming luncheon
had neither vases of cut glass nor silver in
which to arrange her flowers: she used in
their place a wide leghorn hat filled with
damp moss. As it was TO be violet
luncheon she wired the flowers in small
punches of ten or twelve, and set them IN
irregular graceful fashion in the moss, and
tied the brim of the hat in toward the cen
ter with wide band of lavender satin NIB
bon made into large bow at the side.
From beneath the hat narrow ribbon of
the same color was laid to the plate of each
guest, and terminated in n small, careless
looking bunch of violets. White and
creamy foods in salads and soups, cakes
and creams look best when violets are
chosen for luncheon. The table damask
should be white or creamy, too, and wholly
without starch or bluing, so that 1t will
hang in graceful folds.-New York Post.

Don't Wash Your Corset.

There is absolutely no economy in wash
ing corset. 1t does not pay. The waist
loses its shape, the steels rust, the cloth
wearer is made uncomfortable and the fit
of her dress spoiled. 1t is possible to get a
nice corset in white, gold, blue, pink,
gray or black coutille with silk laces for
s135 Nearly dozen different makes are
to be had at this figure, and by arrange
ment with the firm at least six styles will
be sent home, SO that the customer stands
a good chance of a fit. For $3.50 one can
get the finest quality of English lasting
finished with floss stitching and lace edg-
ing and made with two side steels and a
boned back. Allowing one years wear at
least, this rs only an outlay of penny a
day for a corset that will mold a poor
figure into good form, brace woman up
and add eighty per cent. TO the fit of her
basque-New York World.
