Tor having acted so rashly that he
vowed he would disinherit her.
Julia wrote persistently to her ia
Their, but after that first unfortunate
epistle, all other letters were re-
turned with the seal unbrOken.
When the young wife found that
financial assistance from Mr. Warner
was not forthcoming. they decided to
begin their married life on tiny
scale, live frugally and manage to the
best of their abilities.
After all, when love holds so large
a place in ones heart, economy is not
such a dreary study, and an abund-
ance of smiles and encouraging words
go farther toward making a happy
home than do costly furnishings and
eXtrayagant surroundings.
The bright laugh of a loved one has
truer silvery sound than has the
chink of numerous dollars in the
pockets of one whom we simply en-
dure because of his wealth.
Howard and Julia worked hard, and
as time rolled on we might have seen
them any evening enscOnced in their
little room in a, country boarding
house, laying plans for the future.
The young husband knew that soon
er or later his father would learn OF
his abrupt departure from college, so
he and his wife wrote joint letter eX-
planning their situation in such a pa
thetic way that unless the man had a
heart of stone he surely must relent.
Two days after this letter reached
its destination pater familias was
aboard the train which came steaming
into the station, and in less than an
hour later the father. Howard and the
new wife were chatting melTily. ev-
erything forgiven and all reconciled.
Mr.. Williams. Towards father
was none other than the Sheriff who
had married Margaret and MIR. War
ner seventeen years ago.
Juha's striking resemblance TO her
mother caused her father-in-laW to re-
fleet and soon the whole mystery OF
her life was an open secret.
Howard Williams found 1t compar-
atively easy practising law with his
fathers assistance. and as he had al
ways been petted and pampered he
still found his path in life smooth and
sunshiny.
Mr.. Williams. Sr, being a widower,
was glad TO establish a comfortable
house and have his sons wife assume
the responsibilities of the house.
Julia made a clever little house
wife. and things were decidedly more
comfortable than she had anticipated;
still her domestic happiness was shad-
owed by the knowledge of her fathers
guilt and her mothers whereabouts
Nature had endowed Mr.. Warner
with a cold heart and a relentless dis
position. and while he mOurned his
| daughters loss he never sought to re
pair the damage done by once taking
her to his heart and forgiying her
Providence deals with His creatures
| Justly. and one day, without the
! slightest warning. when en- route to
| his old home at c., Mr.. Warner
was stricken with apoplexy, and when
the train arrived at the station he was
carried into the waiting room, where
he died soon afterward.
Mr.. Williams the Sheriff and Coro-
ner of the town, was sent to inspect
the body and put a seal upon his eff
fects.
Upon investigation it was found
that Mi. Warner had died intestate, so
Julia. his only child and heir, came
into possession of his entire estate.
With the money Julia's father had
left she was enabled to employ detect
ives. advertise in all the newspapers,
and after diligent search had been
instituted, when the girl was begin
ming to lose heart and despair of ever
seeing her mother, Mrs. Warner came
to life, for il truly seemed like a res
direction day.
The poor woman who had been so
cruelty buffeted about was very glad
to respond to the inquiries regarding
! her whereabouts. When she heard
that her daughter was actually unhap-
py because of her disappearance, she
argued with herself till all thoughts Of
her LIES imprudence were wiped out
in the anxiety to once again behold
her daughters face.
Mr.. Williams Mrs. Warner Julia
and her husband were ever happy and
contented to let the dead past bury it
self and live for one another and the
little ones who came to widen the
home circle.-Evening Telegram.
