Aunt Barbara, guardedly. Some
thing seemed pulling at her
heart: she had to go, and once
her mind was made up, she hur-
ried her preparations. Soon she
was once more established ia her
childhood's home, everybody
glad to see her, many gone,
more graves on the hillside, new
faces IN the homes and children
whom she had left at school,
grown up into the flower of their
youth, young men and women.
barbara entered into every
thing with Zest. She had re-
celved a little legacy, a thing
which never comes amiSs, and
her circumstances, thanks to the
old cousin whose quaint name
she bore, were now quite easy.
The young East ,rn kinsfolk told
her she needed new gowns and
bonnets; she bought them She
revelled in visits to Town, and
browsed eagerly among new
books IN the beautiful shops. She
was a radiant and beautiful
woman. as fair and charming in
her maturity as IN her youth, and
far more fascinating than she
had been IN her glrlhood. And
now, one and another began to

there were a half dozen bachelors

The Maiden Aunt


would become OF US, If there were
no maiden aun1s left, or If all the
useful unmarried women who
come to the relief of a burdened
home in hours of need, who con-
duct asylums and SIT on hospital
boards, and engage in charities,
were to go into business on their
own account, or to take pity on
bachelors and wldowers and cease
from their own independent es-
tate The lady who has hus-
band and children must abide in
her lot, and it is a goodly one,
full Of honor and happiness. She
who has the free foot of the spin
ster may go where she will, and
she usually goes on errands of
love and compassion, arriving on
the spot IN the very hour when
an angel could not be more op-
perfume.
For instance, there is Saint
Barbara. Twenty years ago,
when she was beautiful bloom
ing girl, possibly twcnty-three, a
Young maiden whom many eyes
followed with yearnlng admlra-
ton, her brother James lost his
wife. She died suddenly, leaving
a baby three days old and two
little tots, respectively two and
four years Of age; and the callow
brood, motherless, and needing
every care, moved the sympathy
of the whole community. James
was silent, administrative
man, helpless in his grief, and

The county commissioners yesterday
released from Jail Harry Jones, W b.
Morgan, and jones BradbuIn. who
were held for the non payment Of fines
for selling liquor, They gave as their
reasons for doing so, that the city has
resorted to the license or "tin,ng sys-
tenn" whereby anybody can run o
joint who will pay $4,000 into the city
treasury each month.
While this system Is in vogue the
county commissioners say they cannot
see what good purpose they are serving
by holding In jail at great expense to
the county those who are not able to
pay their 6nes, and they do not propose
to do so while this state of affairs. ex-
lists and they will protect the county
against all such useless expenditures,
This determination Of the commi0
sioners, we understand, will not apply
to violators from outside the city,
where local officers do not sanction or
abet such infractions, While the city
collects fines Of those able to pay, the
county should not be mulcted for the
punishment Of those unable TO pay.
II the city will have the benefits OF q
license system II Shonld bear the bur
dens rs we'll.
But whenever 10 is apparent that
there is being an earnest and honora-
BILE effort made to enforce the law the
commissioners will use all the power
