frigidly. But think my opinion worth

Cousin Hugh came. Ruth liked him.

money wouldn't have tempted her to
marry him If she had had no lover.
Il suppose you haven't changed your

Aunt Martha, one day, the week before
Ruth went home.

You're foolish girl" said Aunt

Ruth.
When she got home she told Rodney

Six months later telegram came
saying that Aunt Martha was dead.
Would Ruth come to the funeral?
Ruth went, and after the funeral she
and cousin Hugh sat down In the old

In 1t she bequeathed to Hugh Trevor
"all property now in her possession, TO
which she had just title and claim
with the exception of the old family
Bible. That went to Ruth.
Il have brought my legacy home

return, as she deposited Il package

the wrapper was written: Ruth Ire

That evening Rodney Dare came In.
Suddenly Ruth bethought her of the
package, which had not been opened.
Il must show you my legacy" she
said, bringing the package. "Cut the
strings, Rodney, please"
He did so and Ruth took the old worn
Bible from its wrappings. AS she did
so, some papers slipped from between
Its pages and fell to the floor. She
stopped and gathered them up. one
was somewhat bulky document. The
other was an envelope, on which her
name was written.
Here's Il letter from Aunt Martha,
she said, and opened 1t.
AS she read it Il tender light came
into her face. Then a look of surprise

Rodney read;

have reason to believe may happen at

be for you will be to take possession.
God bless you, dear Ruth. and make
you very happy with the man you
have chosen. He ought to be proud of
SO loyal-hearted wife as you will
make him. Sometimes think kindly Of
the woman who never got much happi-
ness out of life, and may this legacy
bring you more enjoyment than 1t has
ever brought me-"
Dear Aunt Marthaw said Ruth, soft
ly, with tears rolling swiftly down her
cheeks. Il wish she could know how
much thank her for her legacy-and
her letter. Do you know, Rodney I'm
not sure but value that most?"
For answer he bent and Kissed her.

would the Sun editor advise
Mr.. KIeburg IN the matter,

he has been in congress, Mr..
Kleburg has been steadily at

much for his district as any

complish in the same time. So
far as Arkansas Pass IS concern

IA committee TO examine fully in
tothe merits of the case, the
harbor works being inspected
and favorable reports being
made. There is no doubt that
his efforts would have been
rewarded by the appropriation

Mr.. Kleberg has not worked
faithfully for Arkansas Pass, as

in the next session of congress.
The record proves that he has
been one of the hardest work
