sweetest AMI best and most beautiful
woman in the world
Then he ordered his carriage to be
brought at once, and drove hastily to
Claria's little home.
Clara lay on her bed in the inner
room. She was still dressed in her
wonderful white gown, but her golden
hair was unbound and fell across her
shoulders and down far below her
waist. and her hands were crossed up
on her breast.
Claria's lips still smiled, Cor she was
dead.
At one side of the bed her mother
knelt in silent prayer. Hans Brett stood
on the other. He was too stunned ana
too brokenhearted even 10 pray.
Presently a maid came hurriedly into
the room, and in a scared voice wlais-
pered that the Grand Duke was there.
And even as she spoke the Grana
Duke stood in the doorway, carrying
to Claria his offering Of lilies which
he had never put ous of his hands. He
stared at Clariaa beautiful. deal face
with falling jaw ana witlenec eyes.
Then he made movement with his
hand toward the docto: Hans Brett
came to his side and bowed, reInem-
bering he was the Grand Duke. He
therefore also waited for him to speak.
when did this happen:'' the yours
Prince asked in a hoarse whisper. she
surpassed herself tonight 1t was mar
velous-heavenly. But she can only
have been home some half an hour
Hans Brett staggered Il little, and
his face grew very gray.
SURPASSED herself? Yes-true She
did But, sir, you were not here to
hear her.
The young man looked astonished.
Il mean at the theater," he answered
in a rapid whisper. Never has such
triumph been before. She was electric
superb"
The doctor mentioned to the Grand
Duke to- go into the outer room, and he
followed.
When they faced each other. Hans
Brett said very simply: "Claria died at
about ten minutes or a quarter past
10 tonight. She had just played her
sonata through when she fell-dead-
loved her." he went on, wildly, and
with something of defiance in his tone.
"She was to have been mine in few
weeks
Il know it, he said, sadly, ''but I
loved-her-too.'
He held out hfs hand, and the doctor
grasped it.
Then the Prince spoke to Hans and
said in a fearful voice: 1T is not to be
accounted for.
mo, it is not to be accounted for.
1t is one of these things which are best
not spoken of, since they only lead TO
vain discussion"
THE world must never know" said
the Grand Duke.
And though the world heard next
morning that Clara was dead, 1T never
knew the actual truth. Claria's triumph
was supposed to have killed her. only
the Grand Duke and the doctor knew
that she had reached her zenith-and
passed beyond-with only her mother
and lover to bear witness to the fact

Evils Of Over-Education.

s.If your boys tastes are not schol-
arly you may make him miserable try
ing to force a love for learning" writes
Mrs. Lew Wallace in the Ladies Home
Journal" He will go through the
books, and the books will go through
him: there is no assimilation. After
all, what are our children being educat-
ed for? The boys are to be bread-win-
ners. They must hurry through and
hustle for a living The girls-let US
believe it-are the future homemakers.
The word helpmeet is obsolete-left be-
hind with the woman who made Eden
Paradise. Constantly the question Is
being brought up, Shall this and that
be added to our public schools?' But
who asks, Can the scholars endure any
more?' They have no protests nor pc
tition; they must stand like human YES
sells ready to be filled to the brim with
mixtures of facts. I plead for child
hood of the soul as we'll as of the body,
for the free air, the blessed sunshine.
the moderate task ended at the school
house This night young heads are
leaning against their mothers, tired as
no young things should ever be, and it
is a sorrowful sound to hear a child
slumber of a light heart beating to
healthful music to ask in troubled
voice, DO you think I can make the
pass grader 1t is said that they like
to go to school Yes, and they would
like it twice as well if there were half
as much to learn. Many children have
I known. but not one who loved study
for it's own sake. Companionship is
what lures them. Instead of wander
ing up and down the wilderness of win
try facts, let them loiter a while among
the dear illusions. The Happy Valley
of Childhood is but narrow, where the
golden water babbles to the talking
bird and the singing tree, where the
sun always shines and the years are
summers. They who adjust the load
that presses SO heavily on the springs
of life have much to account for"

Teaching Children Good Manners.

Good manners cannot be learned in
a moment. There are certain forms
which society has agreed people must
conform to If they wish to appear well
bred, and these are often not at all
what the natural inclination would
prompt one to do under the circum-
stances. Children must be taught these
conventions, and We must not be sur
prised If they are sometimes slow in
learning them, nor DESPAIR if after
much teaching they at times relapse
into native barbarism. Patient persever-
ance in training them will at last pro-
duce the desired result. The constant
repetition that seems SO irksome. COM
bined with the silent force of daily ex-
ample, will effect the end in view-a
we'll bred child.-Ladies' Home Journal
The record-union. [volume] (Sacramento, Calif.) 1891-1903, 1899-02-06

when girl is not as sure of her
affection as she is of the shining of
the sun in the heavens, it is well for
her to pause, to give herself all the
benefit of the doubt" writes Helen
Watterson Moody in the Ladies' Home
Journal s'She should wait until she
is able to say with truth when she
gives her word, Il would rather be
your wife than do or be anything else
in the world If there is in the fur
thest corner of her heart one little
doubt that the full revelation of love
has come to her the chances are that
it has not This Is not to say that
doubts never arise in love. The happiest
engagement in all the world is often
not without a haunting fear attendant
upon it. Indeed, it often happens that
two singularly honest and earnest
young people have periods of exquisite
self-torture during the engagement
time. and the more mature and expert
enced they both are the more likely
this is to happen, for then each sees
more clearly than in early youth the
perils that may come. Each realizes
that though love is the greatest solvent
of difficulties it is not the only one
that there are sure to be the gravest
strains upon human nature in the deli
cate adjustments of married life. One
may be able to trust ones self IN the
great crises of life, but it is the petit
ness of every day living that lays bare
ones besetting sins. A sensitive girl
breads, as cares increase, that the ro-
nance may depart; that the husband
may sometimes come to find the smaller
and less brilliant world in which the
home keeping wife dwells commonplace
and sordid. The true-hearted lover
fears that in some sudden blindness he
may blunder into wounding the tender
sensibilities that seem so exqu1slteiy
dear to him now. Often each dreads
that he or she, or both together, may
prove inadequate in the plain, prac-
teal, everyday affairs of life"

Their Bath Disturbed.

A crowd of young boys were enjoying
themselves taking their Saturday after
noon bath in the waters of the Tuscarora,
along the road leading to the residence
of Mr.. VIM. T. Stewart, when Policeman
Pitzer, who had been waiting for good
chance to catch them, ran upon them.
The officer had warned them time and
again about bathing in the creek inside
the corporation limit, and Saturday he de
termined to break it up if he could.
As soon as the boys saw the officer
there was great scatteration and scram-
bling for clothes. Almost all of them Sc
cured their clothes and escaped. but the
officer outwitted two of them. He secur-
ed their clothes and told them to run if
they wanted to.
They did not seem to want to- how
ever, but meekly walked up to the officer
and under his vigil donned their clothes
and were escorted to the lookup. They
were later released on bail to await their
trial. They were two boys about fifteen
years of age, namedRoach and Miles.
