The following incident Is said to have
occurred in a restaurant: A man entered
the place and ordered very elaborate
dinner. He fingered long at the table,
and finally wound up with bottle OF
wine. Then. lighting cigar he had
ordered. he leisurely sauntered up to the
counter and said TO the proprietor:
Every fine dinner, landlord. JUS,

ITO DE Continued
He Go. the Inform q ton.

Peter Bunda, who has been married
only two weeks, has left his wife.
Bundy is a little man, and his wife
weighs two hundred and forty pounds,
and was the reliCt of the late Seth
Potts. About ten days after marriage
Bundy was surprised, on awakening
in the morning, to find his better
half sitting up in bed, crying us if
her heart would break. Astonished,
he asked the cause Of her sorrow, but,
receiving no reply, he began to sur
mise that there must be some secret
on her mind which she withheld from
him, and which was the cause of her
anguish, so he remarked to Mrs. B.
that as they were married she ought
to tell him the cause of her grief. so
that, if possible, he might lessen it.
After considerable coaxing he elected
the following from her:
Last night l treamed I was sin
gle, and as l wall ed through we'll
lighted street l came to a shop where
sign in front advertised husbands
for sale. Thinking it curious, | en-
tered, and ranged along the wall on
either side were men with prices
affixed to them-such beautiful men
some for one thousand dollars, some
for five hundred dollars, and so on to
one hundred and fifty dollars. And,
as | had not that amount, | could not
purchase"
Thinking to console her, B. placed
his arm lovingly around her, and
asked:
"And did you see any men like me
there?"
"Oh, yes" she replied, "lots like
you; they were tied up like asparagus,
and sold for ten cents per bunch.
Bundy got up, and went to ask his
lawyer if he had sufficient ground for
q divorce

ses heartily and thoroughly. Oh, why
have you disappo nted me?"
The words escaped her almost IN
consciously, and their mingled pain and
regret surprised even herself. But
Brian did not hear them. He was too
deeply engrossed with his own thoughts,
and too deeply hurt by Margaret's plain
ly expressed opin on.
He longed to vindicate himself in her
eyes, though he felt that such thing
was impossible. No words of his would
better his position. He must leave
S'conset immediately. The necessity
70: this step became very apparent. He
turfied with this decision to see Mar
garet preparing to leave the beach. He
realized that in all probability he
would never see her again. A thousand
longings surged through his heart. I'M
pulsive words rushed to his lips, but
with determined will he repressed
them.
TRY to forgive me, Margaret" he
begged. Try to forget the pain have
caused YOU"
Don't distress yourself" was her
cod, proud answer. You are holding
my hand, and l am tired OF standing.
He looked at her with longing he
could not have put in words, AMI re-
leasing her hand without even good
by he stood watching her, until the
winding streets Of the village shut her
from his sight. Then, with feeling
that something had gone out OF his life,
he threw himself upon the sand with a
misery at heart no language could ex'
press.

Electricity Not Dangerous.

The figures recently published by
the city Of Boston show how unfair
this cry has been and the fact that
the trolley is not half so black as it
is painted, for in one year the West
End electric cars carried $4,000, 900
people, which is many more than all
the railroad lines in and out of Bos-
ton carry. In one year the number
of deaths on suburban railways was
twenty. In the same year five peo-
pie were killed by horse cars in Bos-
ton, and only three as a result of &C
cidentS by electric cars.
