Spouse.
He looked at her with the rapid
glance Of the man who knows the mean
ing of form and color and the value Of
every feature. Apparently there was
nothing to recommend her. The face
was not beautiful, the skin and features
were coarse, there was no pomegranate
on the lips, no rose petal on cheek nor
she'll tints in the car. The hair was q
dusty, yellow gray, the eyes dull and
heavy, the mouth and jaw thick and
hard. All of this detail he saw as she
passed through the door unlimited.
"What are your recommendations
he asked her half sneoringly.
"I have good figure" she answered
promptly.
"Are You professional model" was
the next query.
"I have never posed at all, -" she re-
piled. I'm housemaid. / read some
thing in the paper about the lots OF
money the models made, and thought
I'd like it better than being out at serv-

A Beaconsfleld Anecdote.

a we'll known parishioner noted FOR his

the weather unusually severe, the vii

"How often have / told you to be

he and her father were great friends.
As only four persons figure in this story
it is unnecessary to mention names. He
had rival for her affections, and her
father could never understand why she
preferred the rival to him. One day
when he sat on the porch chatting with
her father she called him into the par
lor and told him frankly that she had
promised to marry his rival. He did
not plead or beg. He kissed her hand
with sort of reverence, and then re-
turned to his seat on tho porch and re-
newed the conversation with her father.
In those few moments everything seemed
to have changed for him. The sun did
not shine as brightly; the birds did not
sing as they did before. Even the grass
and trees seemed scar and dead. He had
expected what he had just heard, but
that did not seem to abato the shock.
| He was distract and moody. Her father
saw this aud asked him the cause. He
blrrted out the whole miserable truth.
Her father continued to polish his
glasses carefully and then said:
"Wimmen folks is mighty onsartin
critters" Her father said nothing more,
but nothing would change her mind.
Gradually it came to be generally
known that he had been rejected, and
that his rival was tho fortunate wooer
They, he and his rival, were alumni of
tho same college. He was down for a
| speech at the alumni dinner. A month
before he had attended her wedding.
No one ever heard him complain, though
all knew how no suffered. He was
looked upon as the orator of his class,
and great speech was expected. When
he arose, sinister glitter could be seen
In his eye. Ho began to speak slowly
Ho took as his text acquired Tastes "
He spoke as length. Finally he said:
81 called upon dear friend some
time ago who had just had daughter
married Ee folt his loss very keenly,
I tried to console him, telling him that
whilo he had lost daughter he had
gained son. He said slowly to mo:
Maybe 1 will come to like him
after awhile-like 1 do my cigar, but
the first few puffs arc making me

It was in kentucky. Not word was
said then, but just as the sun peeped
over tho hills tho next day two dark
forms were seen silhouetted against the
sky. There wore two flashes, a combin-
ed, subdued report-and one fell, never
to rise again. 1t was ho.--New York

over one sixth of all the deaths in the

has never made greater mistake than this:
There Is absolutely no reason in the world
why consumption should be fatal - why it
should be even serious. 1t Is a disease OF
the blood, and can be cured absolutely and
always by purifying and enriching the
blood The only exception to this is the

DRAWING up WILLS.

Lawyers Do Not Want Their Names Iden-
tilted with the Documents.
That it takes smart man to draw
will is an adage tho respect for which
in the legal fraternity is evidenced by
tho fact that few lawyers want to furnish
visible evidence Of their part in draw
ing up wills Ii is perfectly easy for u
man to hire lawyer TO draft his tesla
ment, of course, no matter how compli-
Gated its provisions may be. 1t is quito
another thing to get the lawyer 10 wit
ness it. He will not even allow clerks
in his Office to do so except perhaps
where the client is an old or regular
one Ho wants him to go elsewhere to
get the necessary attestations There are
exceptions to this unwritten rule, it Is
true, but it is pretty generally observed
Lawyers will not so admit it, " said
ono OF them, ''but the truc reason is
they don't caro- to DO identified with the
instrument. 1t is about az difficult an
undertaking as lawyer can face TO
draw mp will where the requests are
surrounded with conditions that Will
close up all loopholeg to contest. Most
testators know how they want to dis
pose OF their estates, but it is exceeding
ly hard to express their wishes In way
that will leave no doubt when subse-
quently disappointed heirs call it into
question. The books tenn with instances
of the inability of smart men, some Of
them distinguished lawyers, to make a
will that will stand under stiff fight.
Lawyers naturally don t want to DO as
sociated with "a document that may bo
pronounced bad, and SO they are unwill-
ing to sign as witnesses or to lot their
employees do it, Isuppose it to some ex-
tent argues % lack of confidence in their
work Anyhow the precaution is of lit
