he knew he could act He felt it in his
soul. and he would prove it to tho
whole world some day. He was born
with silver spoon in his mouth, and
1t made little difference if the governor
had east him OF when he left college
to 60 on the stage. for he knew his
luck would come back to him in time.
He was always thinking of her. He
saw her fresh oval face in the blue-gray
ringH Of his cigarette smoke; the smell
of roses was like the perfume of her
breath: her eyes looked at him from
the pansies ON every corner flower
stand. Perhaps this was because she
was one OF the band of wood nymphs
who came out in pink and white to
streS flowers for the feet of the prima
donna to crush. She should have been
. prima donna herself; he had heard
her sing. and he knew. Wait till his
fortune came back to him
They were both stopping at the same
wretched actors boarding house. on q
side street that ran from Broadway to
the Bowery, and It dinner she sat op-

natural color, and her eyelids were
penciled, but she had teeth like ivory
and her laugh thrilled him away down

not eating a mouthful. He hated the
ventriloquist; for that manipulation Of
vocalization was the one who had
given him the nickname of "Coots,"
and now every body in the house called
him that-even she called him that
But she was divine!
The "Johnnies" gathered thickly
about the stage door every night to see
the chorus girls come out; but he knew
she hated the insipid fops. for he had
heard her say SO, and she never paid
any attention to them. She usually got
on first, and left the theater rs soon as
possible, and he had not yet Commanded
sufficient courage to tell her he would
take her safely to the boarding house

was delayed. and he was close behind
her when she left the theater

to her. He had been drinking. and he

In the eastern states 1t is customary
to raise corn almost exclusively on sod
ground. When the ground is neatly
plowed each furrow slice lies with one
edge on the bottom of the furrow, and
the other rests on the adjacent furrow
slice. Fig. shows q cross section OF

Rev. DR.. Alexander Alison. of the First
Presbyterian church, preached an interest.
ing sermon on 1.-THE Divorce Court; Its
Cause and Cure, in which he appealed for
the old fashioned home life OF our fathers
He said he did not appear as pessimist,
but rather as an optimist. lie did not
believe marriage Is a failure" and proved
10 by quoting from the government census
of 1850. which, out Of population Of
over 100000 OF which -, 0G0, 600
belonged 10 this married state, only
10. 900 we're divorced, making only one
tfth of one per cent, or only one divorce
in every 800 married couple. The proper
ton throughout the country WAS greater
in the Western division, covering Mon
tana, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico,
Arizona, Utah, Nevada, Idaho, Washing
ton. Oregon and California, than in the
more populated Eastern states. The
North Central division came next with
Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan. Wiscon-
sin, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, North
DAKOTA, South Dakota, Nebraska and
Kansas. The divorces there were about
one-haif those in the western division, or
three times the national proportion. The
fewest divorces we're granted in the North
and South Atlantic division, aud the large
cities showed to better advantage than the
rest Of the country. San Francisco shows
3. IS divorces to every l.110, 81 Louis per
eco. Boston i.50 per loo. Chicago equals
Boston, Philadelphia lib per I,oo0 and
New York only l In every 2.0O0. Dr..
Allson explained that the reason for the
Western states being so apparently loose
Was due to the fact that = large portion
Of their population was nondescript,

from uncertain conditions in thu East
DR.. Alison cautioned young people against
forming hasty alliances. Also cautioned
against minated alliances As n rule,
Christians should marry Christians. II is
a hard struggle for q mother TO get her
boys and girls TO love the Sabbath and
church going II the father persists in go
ing into the woods 20 shooE or ash on the

loving percration: Seek, my friends,
