MARSHALL, Mich. Dec. 21.-The jury

I,ooI< 10 Your Nec1rtie.

A well dressed man needs TO give OF.
tention to three details Of his dress-his
hat, his necktie and his shoes. He ought
to be particular about his gloves too.
The necktie is the all important. A new
philosopher of clothes insists that every
work of art demands point of rest--a
pivotal spot from which all the rest of
the composition derives It's significance.
That point of rest he locates in the neck
tie. 1t is poor economy, this philosopher
claims, to wear anything but the best
neckties, no matter how expensive these
may be. If it is cheap and shabby the
entire wardrobe takes on that aspect. IF
1t is rich and carefully disposed, even If
the other garments are mediocre, it gives
the impression of care and richness. So

heavy odors of sandalwood seemed to act
like an intoxicant to the gallant officer,
and when the little Louis Quinze shoe,

Cissy Redmayne herself, as a girl, had
known all the real bittarness of poverty,
being poor curate's daughter. Justice
Redmayne's incomewasvery large when
he married the pauper curate' only child.
Though he was 60, and an experienced
man of the world, it was purely a love
match on his side. Till she was II Miss
Cissy had dreamed of pretty frocks and
pretty house, of good living, of an end
less succession of balls and entertain
ments and of the public recognition Of
her own beauty.
In marrying Justice Redmayne she
secured all these things and escaped
from cold mutton and penury. But the

ct Venus Of a wife, lovedvo1d port wine

"Can't say do, your

And there was instantly a chorus Of
testimony to the truth Of the distin-

"You don't seem to be getting on with

There was nothing for it. "To hear is

as at the sublime porte. Strongithearm
accepted the cigar, and this time took

he had been shown the door and Justice
Redmayne's wife had cut him for a

affection like a real good gnubbing, and
Captain Strongithear1n, now she was a
widow, not only fervently loved Mrs.
Redmayne-he actually reVerenced her.
He assiduously paid her court. He was
never tired Of dancing attendance upon
the little widow, and he praised her till
his brother officers were sick of her very
name. And now he was her accepted
lover, and although their marriage was
not announced it was tacitly understood.
Strongithearm had but one failing; he
smoked morning, noon and night. 1t
was real grievance to him that the
queens regulations did not allow him to
smoke ON parade. Now, Mrs. Redmayne
hated tobacco, and ever since his court
ship Strongithearm had become nom
smoker for her dear sake. It was Sc
we're penance to him, but he bore 1t like
man; he suffered in silence and never
complained.
But one fatal afterno Strongit ithearn
was tempted and Strongithearm fell. A
very exalted parsonage, indeed, was ac-
customed occasionally to drop into the
Warriors club. Onceinsideits exclusive
walls the exalted parsonage used to TN
bend and become very much like an or
binary mortal. His proceedings were
always exactly the same. He would take
up his position in front of the fire or at
the window, according to the season Of
the year, order brandy and soda, pull
out his cigar case and politely offer a
cigar to one of the Warriors, and then
for the next half hour the distinguished
parsonage was but an ordinary member
of the club. But there is an etiquette
even in little things.
No one had ever been known to refuse
to smoke the offered regalia--iS was a
kind of royal command which could not
be disobeyed--and SO it happened that
Strungithearm, who had been innocently
sitting at the window waiting for Mrs.
Redmaynes little victoria to pass found
himself the recipient of the royal bounty
In the shape of very dark looking Ha-
vana Of exquisite flavor. There was
nothing for it. The captain lighted up
with smile and q groan, and gll the
other Warriors envied him his luck, and
then he and the distinguished parsonage
continued to stare outof the window and
criticise the passersby.
They had not been three minutes there
when the little victoriaf flashed past, with
its cockasled coachman and its pair Of
