long acquaintance they were engaged, or at
least there was an understanding between them.
A little over year ago young Houseman's at
tentions suddenly ceased. Whether there was
quarrel or not Miss Baker would never say,
but the young lover never came back TO her,
and a few months ago he was married to
another young lady.
Miss Bake ker said but little about the affair, but
her parents watched with anxiety her growing
dependency. This morning she went to her
room and, pouring the contents of a box OF
Rough on Rats into a little sweet cider, she
swallowed the draught, and then calmly told
her parents what she had done.

summoned, but when he arrived the poison had
done its work and the young lady was past help
She was able TO converse with the ply sican a

doctors arrival, she said:
