HFor Gods sake, sir, Eelp mel My hus-
band is dying, and my little one is stary-
ingp
The woman's teeth chartered with the
cold as she spoke, but it was not her chat
tering teeth nor pitiful story that made
the gentleman turn and gaze intently at
her blue, pinched face
"Great God, Clara Lesliel'' he cried.
"Gordon Clydep'
And the woman shivered as If with fit
of ague
For four long years Gordon Clyde had
waited for this hour The wretchedly clad
woman must have noticed the pitiless look
in his eyes, for she cried:
s'Gordon Clyde, sinned against you
he sinned against you; but our punish
ment has been great. Misfortune has fol-
lowed us since the night we left my aunts
cottage He is dying, and am in the
street begging such night as this Have
mercy upon US, Gordon Clyde, or We'll
perishr'
She raised her hands beseechingly as she
spoke She saw his features relax, and
the pitiless gleam was no longer in his
eyes.
Vengeance is mine, and will repay,
saith the Lord. Leave them to him, Cor
DON
Mary Leslie's voice sounded in his ear
once more. All, how often had those words
rung in his ears during the last four yearsl
But the demon of hatred within him
would not let him heed them His
thoughts went back to Mary Leslie now
as he looked down on the woman that had
SO cruelty betrayed him.
After an absence of four years Gordon
Clyde had returned to his native place,
and once more we find him in the house
he was never to enter again, Leslie Cottage.
He is sitting before the glowing CRATE
fire in the cozy parlor, waiting for Mary
Leslie. He hears footstep in the hall and
he rises The door opens, and Mary, who
is now beautiful girl of 20, enters. I'm
til now that she stands before him she did
not know who it was wished to see her.
'sGordon-Mr. Clyde!'' is all she can
say as she extends her hand to him.
He takes the little hand in his and looks
down at the pretty, blushing face
Mary, are you glad to SEQ me again?
Have you forgiven what said to you the
last day was here, four years ago."
ssGorlon r A little hand rests upon his
arm, and two dark eyes are raised solemn

these years, and my prayers have been an

in these years came yesterday, and she
told us how you saved her husband from
death and of all the comforts and luxuries
you heaped upon them. It was noble
revenge, Gordon. 2

kiss on her brow.

Head Cutting in Newark and Else
where.

The Hoosier editor of the estate
Gazette" nearly jumps out of his cuticle
this morning in his glee over the manner
in which the Newark Republican Board
of Works piled the guillotine the other
evening and cut off Democratic heads
That's the kind of work the State
Gazette" would like to see accomplished
in the State House at Trenton.
There are some Democrats holding
subordinate positions in the various de-
partments, simply because, by long and
a state of efficiency that they are prac-
tically indispensable to the proper adj
ministration of the Offices and no Re-
publican can be found to replace them.
The Gazette never grows weary of de-
nouncing Republican officials who retain
Democrats in their employ. and calling
upon them to give the position to hungry
Republicans no matter how incompetent
they may be and how much the interests
OF the state WOuiu III tliSii iAoiaeAS'
And yet it is not so many years ago
since the estate Gazette" used to grow
blue in the face in its righteous indig-
nation. as it execrated Governor Albeit
and the Democratic officials of various
municipalities for making few places
for worthy Democrats. Never did the
Democrats in this State execute such
wholesale slaughter as that done in New
ark or as the "State Gazette" would
have done in the State House. And that
paper is trying to persuade the people
that it is broad minded, public spirited
and inspired only with a desire to serve
the best interests OF the public. and that
its party is animated by the same pur-
poses.

A Noble
Revenge.

Clara Leslie was Gordon Clyde's prom
ised wife, but last night she eloped with
her lovers bosom friend, Lawrence May.
Betrayed by the girl he loved as he did
his life, betrayed by the man he trusted
above all others, Gordon Clyde walked up
and down with rapid strides the best
room of Leslie Cottage-the room in which
he had spent SO many happy hours with
Clara Leslie.
His handsome features worked as If he
was suffering from some acute inward
pain, his arms were folded across his broad
chest, and his chin rested on his bosom.
From far corner Mary Leslie, pret-
ty. gentle girl of 16 or thereabout, watch
ed him with a sorrowful expression of
countenance and teardrops in her great
dark eyes.
Would he never cease that rapid walki
Would he never speak to her? What could
she say to calm the tempest which was
raging in that strong mans bosom?
Such were Mary's thoughts, when sud-
denly Gordon stopped walking and said
fercely:
"I hate heri hate him, and as surely
as am standing here will some day be
revenged upon them bothl''
And he flung himself into chair.
stOh, Gordon, Gordon, don't talk like
thatp' And Mary crossed over to where he
was sitting and put her arm around his
neck 81 know she has wronged you-he
has wronged you, but Vengeance is
mine, saith the, Lord, and I will repay. :
Leave them to him, GordSn.
He threw off the hand that clasped his
neck and sprang to his feet
'sDon't preach to me, Mary Lesliei OF
course you'd like to save your cousin, but
I'll be reyenged on heri I hate even the
name of Leslie, and I'll leave this house,
that has been my curse, never to enter it
againP'
The young girl stood Mortified for mo-
ment, but as Gordon rushed past her to
the door she cried:
"Gordon, Gordon, listen to mel''
The words, which seemed wrung from
her heart, reached his ears. He gave one
backward glance. He saw two outstretch-
ed arms and a white, agonized face. For
moment he hesitated, but it was only
for moment; the next he was gone
Gonel Mary Leslie sank upon the floor
and burst into tears. Ever since she could
remember she loved Gordon Clyde. She
mover thought her fickle minded cousin
good enough for him. Child as she was.
she long ago foresaw what was going to
happen, and how often she had prayed
that Clara would be true to Gordonl
"Oh, if he only knew how much care
for him, he would not say he hated the
name Of Lesliei' moaned Mary.
Gordon Clyde was one of the wealthiest
men in his native place. He always lived
on his money without having profes-

souna Views on Child Teaching.

We desire to revert to the meeting OF
the State Federation of Women $ CLUBS ai
Rutherford on May II, for the purpose OF
most heartily endorsing the views ex-
nressed by Professor Edward Howard
Griggs of the Leland-Stanford University
on the subject of training children
minds. Mr.. Griggs made strong plea for
the cultivation of the imagination ana
emotional sides of child nature, which
seems to us profound and judicious be-
yond praise.
Here are some of the things which the
Professor said
The fact that the imaginative anu
emotional life of a child begins before
the intellectual, is full of hints for ms
education. Children who have abnor-
NAL imaginations have not had enough
mythical food. Give the children all
the true fairy tales that they df may
use the expression) can eat.
The problem of nature study is not
study of science. We make the
sciences. Children know nothing of
science, and they want to know noth-
ing. l should as soon teach a child OF
six viyisection as teach him to pick a
flower to pieces before he knows it as
whole.
Children should be awakened to good
morals by contact with primitive
mythology. but it must be well select
ed. To put Ibsen and Goethe in the
hands of children is to invite corrup-
ton. Give them those tales which pre-
sent the simple difference between
good and evil and the power of good
over evil. Do not make them little
moral prigs by giving them Sunday
school books with impossible morals.
Children should be taught that good in
this world should conquer, and If it
must go down it should go down heroi-
cally. Primitive mythology teaches
that 1t is 4ost unfortunate to have
to learn mythology through the die
tionaiy.
In days like these when we hear ladaes
like Mrs John L. Scudder drumming
Gradgrind ideas into the public mind
through the medium of Sorosis, it is re-
freshirig to see man stand up and talk
sense on this important topic. Mr.. Griggs
has evidently thought and felt deeply
upon the subject. He has pursued his
study of the human mind and its begin
nings, not through spectacles of hard
utilftarian ultra-m modernism. but through
the genial medium of a love for
humanity as shown in its natural in
stincts.
II Professor Griggs' ideas could be real
ICED and the sympathies, the emotions,
the imagination and the fancy of the race
could be cultivated at the sacrifice OF
some of the utilitarianisms to which al
most all educational work is now devoted
the pitch of human goodness could be
Infinitely exalted, and the sum total OF
human happiness could be increased

every suffering woman:
I am glad to testify to the merits of

noticed very satisfactory results with
patients under my care when Paine's
celery compound was prescribed"
The above endorsement is corrobo-

'swe. have been using your Paine's
celery compound in the Nazarene Home
for some months. and it is with great
pleasure that can say that our aged
people have invariably been benefited
by its use. have been using it myself,
as has also my niece, and there has been
a marked improvement in our health. I
was very much run down after the win
ter's hard work, but am feeling very
much better. I have recommended it to
number of friends outside of the Home,

with the results. We shall never be with
