CHAPTER XIII.
THE RrRNEn NEWSPAPER

THE BURNED NEWSPAPER
Mary's first instinct was to carry the
paper up stairs 10 Alan Stacey herself
| to break the news to him there and then
( But hard upon the heels of this thought
/ came another-that he was but just
! over very violent headache, and it
( would be cruel to tell him that moment
! She therefore whisked ont the middle
page and gave the rest of the paper TO
/ the maid.
Tell Mr.. Stacey that will come up
! in few minutes, she said
When the servant had left the room
/ her first thought was how she could
best conceal that part of the paper from
Alan. Then she ran to the door.
I Alice, Alice, come back" she call
ed. "Givs me the paper. l will go up
to Mr.. Stacey myself. -
But she did not go up at once. She
turned back into the dining room and
deliberately tore the sheet containing
the telegram across, so tnrt the corner
where the account of ts. .sscue of the
survivors of the Arikhama had been
was gone. This she threw into the fire
Then she weat up the wide shallow
I stairs and turned in at her bedroom
door.
My dear boy" she said in tone as
much like her natural voice as supreme
effort could make it, Il really don t
think that you ought to be reading the
newspaper, particularly lying down in
bed. Let me read to you.
She sat down by the fire with her
back to the light. Alan Stacey lay back
among his pillows idly enough
Il don care about reading, so long
as you' sit there and talk to lie, " he
said lazily rs there anything in the
paperl''
Moo; all account of the ball last
night, with our noble names in the
paragraph. All the rest is pretty much
as usual.
She glanced down the day by day
column, gave him a list of all the
items of news that might in any way
serve to interest him, and after that
they talked for little while. and then
Alan Stacey said that he might as well
get up as lie idling there, and Mary
went down stairs again, carrying the
paper in her hand; carrying also her
burden with her; carrying with her
the knowledge and the conviction that
he would have to he told that she must
be the one to break the news to him /;
that there must be no shirking it, 10
getting ont of it; that it was IA task
which lay right in front of her, task
which she must accomplish-and the
sooner the better
Then she remembered that if she told
him Alan would naturally ask to see
the paper containing the news. But she
had burned it, She felt-so strangely
are we moved by trifes in times Of
great ifficulty-that she could not en-
dure to let him know that her first
thought had been to hide the truth
from him, Then how was she to at
connt to him for having destroyed that
part of the paper! Should she send out
and get another copy? She did not like
10 do that. nor did she like to 20 her
seH-it would look So strange.
And then the thought came 10 her
Why tell him at all! Why say anything
about it: Why break up and destroy
their intense happiness Nothing could
be wider apart than the lives led by

for us? You know we cannot have a
place too quiet until we are through the
book
Il think it would do splendidly
Couldn We telegraph today and go

ments:-
We have no dinners; nothing that
we couldn' easily break.
Have we the address of the inn?''
"Oh, Yes; it is called the Powys

He stood with his hands thrust deep
down into his trousers pockets eying
her approvingly.

Mary" he said in a very tender tone.
She smiled at at him and put out her
hand to touch his.
Il M glad you think so, she said ia
rather quavering voice.
''Oh, my dear, my dear, | always

the luckiest day of my life when | met

the outcome. Personal appearance" does
not mean dress alone. II does not mean
exterior cleanliness alone. 4 Young man

THE first day of May already recog-
nized as the beginning of the season
Of flowers, is to have an added glory,
at least in Pennsylvania. By act OF
the Legislature it will be known as
Dewey Day, and made legal holiday.
1t is intended to commemorate the
brilliant victory of Admiral Dewey
and his brave followers in the harbor
OF Manila on May 1st 1898, regarded
as one Of the greatest achievements in
naval warfare. 1t is not unlikely
other states will follow the lead of the
old Keystone State, and make it le-
gal holiday Let us not forget the day
that we do honor to the victorious
Dewey and the men with him behind
the guns.
WITHIN the past year there has
been an agitation Of direct legislation
that has resulted in the formation of
a branch in Wheeling. and this branch
intends to circulate literature through
out the state as a sort Of educational
campaign. Direct legislation means
that the people will have vote on
bills before congress or the state leg
islatnre if they SO petition, on the ques-
tions to be voted on at the ensuing
election. Its fundamental basis is
the referendum and the initiative, a
system in vogue in Switzerland, where
it is said one of its fruits is seen in
the governmental ownership of rail
roads. 1t would give the people the
privilege TO vote on laws direct instead
of indirectly through the representa-
tives. It's advocates are considered
Missionaries, yet progress has been
made in Missouri and other states.
